The people have spoken! With a landslide win of 27 votes (71.05%) to 11 votes (28.95%) the January 08 Bandsters are officially titled "New Year's Knockouts"!

just the smiley. I had two tickers before also, one of my weight and one for countdown to my surgery and then when I started trying to put in the smiley, it wouldn't let me have both tickers. Oh well!

Nothing is wrong with the 25th, you're just the first person to have a surgery scheduled on that day! Congrats and welcome Mary! We now have someone being banded on every weekday in January plus one Saturday!

I love it too, except with my ticker and stats it wouldn't let me put in the smiley so I had to suffice with a pic of boxing gloves

Sorry about that dianegoE! Didn't realize it was missing!

For some reason, when I try to add the boxing smiley it says my sig is over 1000 characters, anybody know why?

I was looking for a boxing smiley! I hope you don;t mind if I use that in my sig as well. Good luck with your surgery tomorrow Chrisann! Hope everything goes well!

Welcome all new members of the New Year's Knockouts!

Here are the top two winners from the last poll to decide our group name. The choices are the "January Jewels" or the "New Year's Knockouts". Regardless of what you voted last time, you may vote for whichever one you want. This poll will close Saturday night (Sunday morning at 12:50am) December 30, so that we will have a name by the first surgery (ie Chrisann's on Dec. 31)

I know you weren't accusing! Things just keep getting deleted with all the copying and pasting, that's all! Did you notice our new name?

Well it's official folks: The January 08 Bandsters are now the "New Year's Knockouts"!!!

dianegoe, I think I put you on there. If you want to post a new question, at the bottom of the main Jan 08 forum there is a button right under all posted threads that says "New Thread". If you click that you can start a new thread on whatever topic you want!

So I'm just gonna venture and say I think I know which name is winning this poll, but you never know, 17 more people could vote in the next 2 hrs and change the results (yeah right)!

Didn't you know Karen that there is no such date as Jan. 31st, that's why we deleted it! Someone deleted my date too! It's on Jan. 32nd!

Because so many people update the list, people inadvertently get deleted. This is the updated list as of right now.
