Ahahahahahah

One of these days, we need to be on the same team. I feel the need to turn you into a troublemaker as well :D

*giggles*

It must be a S thing, cause I was planning on being like that too.

I also discovered that people tend to focus on the hard letters and leave the easy ones on the side - it works for me as I am a mood reader.

Unless I'm in the mood for Ty & Zane and half my team decides to grab all the Zs from pub quizzing... There was Us and Qs, but they snatched my Zs.

Captain Tetris = moving books around for optimal results.

True.

I usually have a planning spreadsheet where members can add their planned books and let us know which letters they work for. (Easier on Captain Tetris )

Fingers crossed too.

Every time I see another post/comment about True Dead I want to pick it up... Until brain catches up with a "you seriously want to read a Y book this close to wheels" moment.

*sigh*

Well, that question is a valid one. Want to know the reason? LOL A long, long time ago, NBRC suffered a Pirate TakeOver Month.

It had a scavenger hunt, with riddles to find a certain picture.

The winner of the tasks told us much later, that she found the pictures by searching the picture name on the group search option.

Of course she only said it, when we were preparing another scavenger hunt.

In case you are wondering, that clever pirate aspiring was Kelly.

Did you play Towers one? I remember you being on Mango Tango for Towers II.

And yes, challenges are addictive. I don't play Uno (just because I'm not on perks) but, from the ones on NBRC, I only skipped 2: UnCoverIt! because all mods had to skip it, plus I was helping managing it. And Cutthroat, because it was a bloody business.

My main regret was not being able to stick to Wobble, but life made me tap out.

You're not kidding! lol."

So true

It's right on the corner Alison, it starts on the 9th :D

I'm so happy that I could dance

Wait... maybe not. wheels III was after Towers HP, and the towers after wobble was the Star Wars one.

Camilla wrote: "Oh, was Wobble between II and III? I thought it was later. In that case Wobble was my first as well."

I think wobble was between III and IV

You mean wheels, right?

Wobble was just the once.

Eldarwen wrote: "Maybe Sonia remembers when I jumped in??"

Nope, sorry. No clue. If you want to know for sure, you'll have to scavenge the spreadsheets.

Sammy wrote: "Sonia wrote: "For your information... Wheels was Karen's baby! She did the first two, I'm only to blame for towers III."

And wobble..? Where abouts would the blame for that one fall? ;D"

wobble is not my doing. I have nothing to do with the challenges. Well... Unless you count the wobble idea, and the sport billy's reference. And and... dang... it was a team effort, why are you blaming me? you loved it.

For your information... Wheels was Karen's baby! She did the first two, I'm only to blame for towers III.

Before that I might have helped with theme... and points break,,, and pictures... and... okay... I'm seeing your point now

Me!!!

Nope, not the only one.

How much longer???

RL was kind enough to have my awake moments all scrambled up this week, so, I'm pretty sure I can hold it together.

However, my schedule clears on the 20... we better have news by then... I might not control myself enough not to show NBRC a new kind of troublemaking...
