Hello all,
You may have seen this on the front page, but I'll reiterate it here. We are now able to select a home region amongst our affiliated regions. This is important, because it will count your wordcount towards our regional count. Last year, Monterey came in in the top 10 (I think we were #6), for wordcount per author--quite a feat. We also beat all of China in words written during the month. Throughout Nano, we are able to set up challenges with other regions, but to accurately reflect our prowess, we need you to affiliate and set us as your home region.
To do this, first click on My Nanowrimo. My regions page shoudl come up. If not, you can click on the menu on the left. The My regions page will list regions you are affiliated with. To select a home region I believe you will have to be affiliated with it first. to affiliate with a region, you click on the regions tab. Scroll through all the regions until you find UNited states :: California :: Monterey and select affiliate. Of course, you can affiliate with other regions as well (your word count will not count towards their totals). Next, click on the home region tab. Select United States::California::Monterey from the list. Now you should be set.

Just a reminder, if you have not set your home region yet, please do so. Last year, we Monterey WriMos actually managed to finish in the Top 10 (I think we were #6) overall for words written per writer. We can't do that unless you choose us as your home region.
