That's odd, because the AM leader board shows there is at least a small dozen of slots free... But as a matter of a fact, this part could become a real bottleneck again (yes I see again, when I passed NM, having an AM needed 6+ monthes). This 4 month delay sucks, but it's a new phenomenon afaict. By new I mean, it's a relapse. Maybe FD can confirm, but it also seems that there is less AMs that there was before. I mean less slots available. As I did reduced mine, I can tell it's half because I don't have time, and half because being an AM suck (especially for the reasons I already cited). -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O [EMAIL PROTECTED] OOO http://www.madism.org
