    I understand. If you're not able to signup, you'd have to sit this one out.

    We're not able to suggest workarounds for someone not legitimately in an accepted territory. It'd have to be something worked out between you and the book.

    Might be tough to get 250 by next Tuesday night. I would think that getting 128 would be easy though.

    Having said that, I am in!
