139735 Ah okay, my bad, I wasn't understanding the answer then. Yes, that is perfect! Gotcha! And yeah, it totally makes sense that it ends after 26 prompts; that's how challenges tend to work. I just wasn't sure if there was a caveat since we had more tasks. :) Thanks for your patience!!

No. Per rules of ABC Challenge:🔖 Each book can only be used ONCE within this ..."


Sorry, I think I'm not asking intelligently. So if we read 26 books and use up all 26 prompts, there's no way to continue getting bonus points for Solar System? Since ABC is a challenge itself, I would guess not, but since it's tied in with this challenge that needs a lot of books, I wasn't sure if there was a caveat to reuse prompts. Does that make more sense? Lol, I'm trying to figure out how to make this question make sense outside of my brain. 🤣

139735 Not the same book; different books, but same task in the quarterly challenge. I'm only using books once. :)
Feb 04, 2025 02:57PM

139735 For the quarterly challenge, are we able to use those tasks more than once? Like, if I've already applied a book for "First Person Narrative", can I use that again for points on the Solar System challenge?

139735 I'm available as an additional teammate. I read at least 10 books a month, but they may not fit the prompts, so that could reduce my count down to potentially 3-5 a month. I'm a mood reader primarily, so I try to make books fit versus find specific books for tasks. I'm not sure that would be helpful for a team or not.
