I played that one a couple of years ago. Fun contest. 14 races kind of daunting, but at least, as you said, it's all over with in one day.

Hope I did the registration right. Thought it would have me in the system since I played a couple of years ago, but it didn't so I reregistered, but even after doing that, it says that my status is "pending activation." Hope this is something they do and not me cause I can't figure out wtf else I need to do. Maybe they do this later this week just before the contest?

If you have been playing the 123 contests you should have been able to log in with your handle and password...worked for me...

They sent me an email and confirmed my handle and password and it says to login and complete the registration, but I can't see anything else to complete. I went to the profile page and it has some mandatory things to complete which I did the first time around when I registered.

I didn't play the 123 contest. I'll go back and see, if there is anything else I missed. They usually have mandatory fields marked with an asterisk. Thought I completed them all, but maybe not. Can't remember giving them the last four digits of my social which most of these contests ask for.
