Yes we are still accepting new participants. Please lease the authentication post in the thread.
Are you really accepting new participants? I ask because almost 2 weeks have passed since you posted this message, but you still have not shared an update regarding this matter.
Meanwhile, posters have been applying in bulk(Including me) since then. I suggest sharing updates more frequently and use CFNP, FULL etc in the title of the thread to indicate whether there are any open slots or not.
Now we usually 2-3 days to accept or not new participants. Thats why if you do not receive invitation message in that period you are not accepted.
