There's a cat on the cover, if that works. Pub in 2012. It has all words EXCEPT Mushroom, Ink, silk."

Great! Will put under cat for now ;D

Geez! Must be that time of year :P no worries Sunshine, those long ones are good for gold! So even though it's frustrating it will be worth it!

Awww, poor thing :( feel better soon! Don't forget to rest! I hope your next book is a good one (5 stars!)

Thanks Emily! I appreciate all the insight ;)

I think even finding cats isn't a problem. I've been doing a lot of searching inside all of our books and every book has lots of options, so I'm good with everyone reading whatever they like.
I'll hold those long books from here on out. A #2 in series should be easy. And I'll hold all these cards for now :0)

So I should save Coreen's 480 page book and exchange for gold rather than #2 in series?

oh! geeze, I hope I didn't use too many of those..
I'm a bit confused about the Gold. On a different captain thread I was reading , they were saying that using their Gold made them lose points... I don't get that at all....

No apologies! I needed a different thought process...

I know for sure we are NOT having tournament play, we only fight Boss Monsters.

All of your point engineering is helpful, I keep forgetting about the point system. ;P lol....

So... all said and done Should I discard any of our cards to get a monster?

And , If I understand correctly We want to keep Card #1 and get that Gold!
Dump the cat???

Help Request

Hey team, I am a bit overwhelmed at the amount of cards we have to fill...
On one hand we need 39 Experience points to level up our hero, and we need all those cards. Yet, We can gain experience by fighting monsters too.
We also need to keep leveling up our weapon, needing series books.

In summary I feel like we need a hundred billion million books !!!!

QUESTION POSED TO THE TEAM ~ Do we drop a card or 2... and if so ... which one(s) ?

I'm thinking that Cat card #2 is pretty messy and tedious. None of us seem to be cat story lovers.

I love the idea of Card #1 to earn 20 Gold, but do we really need it? However, It's a pretty easy card to fill. Most of the books that have been finished have multiple words in them.
I'm stumped...

HELP!!!!

also , no word yet about those Boss Monsters, but they should be coming soon!

I've got a 2016 book, I'll use it for #5 ! :D

Check the planning spreadsheet for other years needed...

Series book update

Another level has been completed!

Now need Series numbers:
#1 #4 #7 #8

Spreadsheet updated and our weapon is leveled up! We now have an attack of 17.

Great lunch, no new books :/ I always enjoy looking at all the books I've read though! Thanks C ;)

Great Jackie, I put it on the planning sheet.

Anyone reading a Series book #4 ?
