Dev’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

apparently it was an old one so they rebooted it here. when are you guys planning on starting?

just wanted to say that i did put in the request on the 5th and put in a reminder yesterday so hopefully the thread for iron druid will be up soon lol

i didn't fill in the points, it just automatically does it when you put a date in the read box so i think they are all probably worth 10. although there is a thing off to the side that says something about 200 points and 10 x 10 definitely doesn't = 200 so idk lol. i'm just going to trust for now that the spreadsheet is formatted to add itself up correctly

not sure if i should ask this here or in the other thread but if a book is tagged as both young adult and middle grade but the young adult tag is used more then does that count as young adult and therefore the word count wouldn't need to be verified as would generally be the case with middle grade books?

i know, i'm ready to get started!

i know they said we didn't have to make a shelf for this challenge but i like to keep track of things so i went ahead and made one anyway. i'm sure it makes it easier if we need to double check stuff too.

ok i've got access to the spreadsheet now!

haha no you are right, i just overlooked it or forgot about it i think

ok sophie i got access to our planning spreadsheet from you and i messaged the 'moderators of nbrc' account on here with my email and team name so hopefully they get me added on there soon

@sophie - i'm guessing you have access to all the spreadsheets? because i just noticed that i'm view-only on them lol. do you want us all to have access to the planning spreadsheet to fill in what we're working on or is it easier for you to just fill it in as we tell you?

i just checked in my last book so i'm done! i think we did okay considering we had one of the smallest teams, and at least we aren't in dead last ;) lol

so weird not to have a new word on wednesday lol

oooh that is actually a good point about robin's weird memories about the event. maybe she was planning on bringing cal back to a future where everyone somehow half-remembered both versions of events? idek lol

i think we decided on iron druid and the 12th for the start date. i guess i should go request it so it's sure to get put up in time lol

i've had fun reading with you guys but i'm definitely ready to move onto lava where i can reader shorter books and not focus entirely on spelling lol ;)
