head_victimOh and I'm happy to report we only had 2 bounces of the 14 people who signed up, apparently one is over quota on their uni inbox and the other I can't read the writing well enough to get it to the correct address.10:19
ikt14 people signed up to?10:23
head_victimOn the open day we had a "sign up and we'll send you 1 spam email" and 14 people wanted to know about the team10:23

head_victimYeah can't hurt that's for sure :D10:34
