I get a message on my User talk page from Ekorren saying
Hej :)
You got one of those "once in a lifetime" chances to score a globalhash ;) Go get it at Älvkarleby!
I don't even know what a User talk page is, but I get an email telling me about the update, so I read the message the same night. I decide I will probably go for it, even though it's 100 miles away.
