that's what Ilan's "What the hell" was about.
Someone revived this thread in a strange way.

It was definitely the strangest first post I've ever seen, as well.
Incidentally, sign-up's for 2006's NaNo begin in 41 days.
Third year for me.

Well, let me get this straight. If you don't get it finished, it's not a big problem anyway, right? All I'm saying is that it's worth trying whether you get it done or not, basically.

Yeah.. though there is one thing I can't understand.. I can just begin writing now get the thing all done by the deadline.. can't I?
I know it's cheating [and I wouldn't ever do it as well], but anyone can do this... right?

Yeah, I was wondering that myself. I don't really see any way that they could really track when you started and finished, so theoretically you could already have it done.
