Signup Survey?

Did anyone encounter a signup survey? In my administration area it let me set up questions for one (I only made one question) and so I assumed that it showed it to you at some point during signup…  
…but there have been 73 people signed up so far and zero have answered the survey. I’m confused ☹

[spoiler]for what it’s worth, here is the question:

What made you decide to sign up?

- Free space is free space.
- I gotta have that groovy [teemingmillions.com](http://teemingmillions.com) url
- I sign up for everything. I’m such a joiner.
- Dunno, but I might want it in the future.
- I hoard things.
- I’ve been waiting anxiously for this for a long time.
- I couldn’t believe my luck that such a timely and wonderful thing showed up, and here I was!
- I like pie.  
[/spoiler](and yes, that was very secret, which is why I put it in the spoiler tag!!)

I successfully copied mine over from my homepage but I haven’t been able to view it yet; they say I need to build it. ???  
I’ll take a look tomorrow when I am more awake.

FWIW, I was never asked to do a survey.

viva: so in your file manager all the files are there? Is your main page named “index.html” ?

Hey thanks, **Opal**! **Spoz** always said that I should have a webvsite devoted to what he calls my “weird facts” and stuff… hmm. Probably won’t do it about that, though you never know.

Signed up at [flamsterette.teemingmillions.com](http://flamsterette.teemingmillions.com)

And no, I didn’t see a sign up survey.

Occasional popups? I just visteted Thunder’s site 10 times, and got 2 pop-ups each time. One pop-under at load, and one pop-up on unload.

I think I’ll stick with the 5 mb on fathom (if you don’t mind).

Mind if I sign up even though I’m new here?  
I’ve kinda been looking for a service like this.

Alright, I went to the webpage and found no place to sign up. This could be because of one of three things:

1. I was looking at the wrong thing;
2. I didn’t go to the right site;
3. I am stupid.  
Normally I would just go with number 3, but I got to wondering, could it have been the other two??

**mblackwell** , the Wednesday Night Mixed League thanks you for reading about us. You’re probably the 2nd person to do so.

This isn’t some sort of closed club. Anyone can sign up, even if they’ve never been to the SDMB.

What site did you go to?

If you go to [www.teemingmillions.com](http://www.teemingmillions.com) on the left side it says “Free Web Site” and underneath is a link “Get Yours Now” that takes you here: [快三平台注册送18-电子平台送免费体验金](http://www.teemingmillions.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress&func=display&bid=38&mid=4&ceid=29) (which is also linked to in the OP)

From there you click on “to sign up, Just Click Here” which takes you here: [http://signup.teemingmillions.com/cgi-bin/signup](http://signup.teemingmillions.com/cgi-bin/signup)?

From there you start the signup proceedure. Your first step is to choose your domain name ([yourname.teemingmillions.com](http://yourname.teemingmillions.com) … this is the part where you reserve the “yourname” part)

Then once you have that, you follow the rest of the steps 🙂

Opal!! I love you! Now I can have a place to put up my before and after pictures of my weight loss (assuming my insurance approves my Lap RNY surgery)!!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I got “[s.teemingmillions.com](http://s.teemingmillions.com)”. That’s right, steamingmillions.

I don’t have anything there, of course. Yet. Hopefully I can use it for image hosting.
