Sign up here for Cooking Club 2015 PART 1!

24-12-2014 11:14pm#1(Sorry, late on Christmas Eve is a terrible time to post this, but I forgot to do it before now
)
The time has arrived to sign up for PART 1 of the 2015 cooking club. If you'd like to post your recipe between January and April, sign up now. We'll take 16 sign ups this time around. We will take more in April and August.
Some notes to bear in mind:
1a. If you sign up, you be given a date that you must post a recipe on. The date will fall on a Friday. Please be prepared and have your recipe ready by this date. Please do not sign up if you are not serious about submitting a recipe.
1b. Chances are, you will receive a reminder PM a few weeks before you are due to post your recipe. You must reply to this PM and confirm that you will still be taking part. Otherwise, your slot may be given away.
1c. If you cannot take part on your allotted date for a foreseen reason, it is imperative that you contact the moderators in advance to let us know. A huge amount of work goes into the Cooking Club, and it is enormously frustrating when someone fails to post without good reason.
1d. If you fail to post a recipe without letting us know why, a 2-week ban may result. Of course, we understand that sometimes things happen unexpectedly to prevent you from posting, so we will use our discretion here.
2. Pictures are NOT required. They're nice, but they're in no way essential. Some posts, although lovely to look at, are completely over the top with pictures and this makes it a nightmare to browse the forum on mobile devices. Pictures must be limited to a maximum of 5. We feel this is sufficient for showing the important parts, and doesn't make the thread a nightmare for mobile browsing. This is 5 per recipe, not 5 per post. Extra pictures after the first 5 will be deleted.
3. The choice of recipe is entirely up to you. It can anything you like, as long as you think others will enjoy it. Some recipes get an unexpectedly large response, others get very few replies. Please don't be disheartened if your recipe doesn't generate a huge response. Often, people are making it without posting about it. Lack of replies don't mean your recipe was a failure!
4a. We have a Random Recipe thread. If you don't sign up in time, or if you have extra recipes you'd like to submit, we strongly encourage you to post them to the Random Recipes thread.
5. As usual, we will only accept sign-ups from posters who have a total postcount of more than 100 posts (or who can demonstrate a strong posting history in the Food & Drink forums under a previous closed account - PM the moderators for this). We will use our discretion with sign-ups where the poster has no history of posting here. We do this to minimise the number of people signing up and then forgetting about it or not wanting to take part a few months later.
5b. If you have failed to post a recipe in the past without giving us adequate notice, you will not be permitted to take part this year (or in the future).
6. Finally, if there's a particular time of year that you'd prefer to post, or a time that really doesn't suit you, please let us know with your sign-up post. OR if you're brave enough to be the first poster of the year in early January, please post it!8

Hey Deenie123, it's 100 posts in total to sign up, not 100 posts in Cooking & Recipes. If we have more sign ups than we have spaces we do use our discretion & tend to give preference to people who post here often, just because experience shows they're more likely to actually go ahead and post a recipe on the day, but absolutely throw your name in the hat

And if I could have a slot in March or April that would be great.
Just to preempt any questions from others here, seeing as Mystery Egg has less than 100 posts: the poster had an active account in the past and was a strong contributor to the Food & Drink forums, so there's no issues with a low post count in this case.
I'm very pleased that there's so many sign-ups so quickly, especially over the festive period 0 -
I've been watching the forum the last few months but haven't been able to contribute or try recipes As there'll be a mini chew coming along next year, appetite has been horrendous but is slowly picking up so I'm going to pass on a slot for 2015 but I do hope to try more recipes before the madness begins!! Best of luck everyone!! Looking forward to it 0
