I am very disappointed that you won't be allowing us to use DW for signups and claiming this year. I would love to participate, but I don't use LJ anymore. Just looking at the signup pages, it's clear that there's an issue with the comments, and I don't trust LJ not to mess things up or steal my information. I would still be excited to participate, even if only as a pinch-hitter, if I can do that without using LJ. Unfortunately, if it remains LJ only, I'm afraid I won't be joining in.
