Hello, my solo project template says that my appointed MC is xxxx, but that is not showing on the uploader as an option. What should I do?
Thank you for your help!

You don't have an MC yet, so you can't upload anything yet.
When you get an MC, they'll post in your thread and get you the Magic Window. They'll also replace the xxxx with their name.

Explanation:
That "xxxx" is a place-holder until someone joins your project as an MC. Before starting a solo project, we usually ask folks to do two things:
- Upload a "1-minute test" to make sure their equipment is set up properly (I see you've done this!)
- Read a couple of chapters in group projects, both to get a feel for how much work goes into each chapter, and to familiarize you with our workflow before you hop in the driver's seat.
Next steps:
I'd highly recommend doing some group chapters, but it's not a requirement. If you want to jump right in to your solo, we can move your project thread from "On Hold" into the Launchpad, where someone will join you as MC within a few days. Just post in that thread, we'll get it moved, and you'll have your MC soon.
Edit: aaand, cross-posted. Still useful information, though.

I'll be out for a bit on this last weekend of April, but still checking in as I get the chance. I will try to follow up on Monday, with anything I can't do on the go.
