I figured I'd toss this up genericly, but I have two quick questions.

1. Does our team registration go in the same place as our character sheets?

2. I was just looking at the dates of this thing, and I'm going on a vacation from January 2nd through the 9th. I don't think I'm missing much, but in the event I'm missing more then can be afforded, is it possible to find a surrogate for that brief period?
