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

Suzanne, that was it!!!! Thank you SO MUCH!!! I had clicked on the first TEAM SPREADSHEET in msg. 1. You're a genius! I got a HUGE smile on my face when it opened correctly. Thanks, everyone, for trying to help me and being patient with me! :)

Unfortunately, I can't see them so I can't add to them. If it's not one thing, it's another! Ugh...frustrating! Weird when I go on my phone to my SS it all shows up just fine, but not on my computer. It must be some kind of glitch but I have no idea how to fix it!

I’m definitely on the ROUND 3 Tab! My other computer had Windows 10 I believe and my new one has Windows 11 Home, so I’m not sure if that might have anything to do with it. But on the round three tab, it only shows my book on line 2 and then it goes through line 8. Then when I go to the battles tab, it shows everything from battle one and the books on battle two and my book A Thousand Times Before is the last one. Both of the tabs show it is View only. So I don’t know what the problem is, but I can’t see any other books for sure and I am definitely on the right tab. I have summary then round three, battles and then it goes on for rounds two and one which are locked, Shelter, supply drops, BOM, Member info, rules, cornucopia, and then testing. ANY IDEAS?

Stephanie, Teddie, or whoever else might know...I've not been on my regular PC since ours took a dive. So I just went to look at the SS but it looks different. Round 2 tab is locked, but the Round 3 tab only has the battle books listed on it. I don't know if something changed as I had 6 or so books listed for Round 3 or if I lost something. Are we in Round 3?

We finally got our new PC up and running last night, so I'm back in business! Hooray! Just in time for the global internet disaster! lol But we were skipped!

Okay, you can count on me for that one.

Okay so the reading begins July 22?

If I can read A Thousand Times Before, I would like to do so.

I’m kind of out of the loop due to our computer dying on us a few days ago. We finally purchased a new one today but it will be a few days before it’s ready to use. Where are we on battle books? Has everyone who didn’t read last time had the chance to pick a book? Do we need anyone else to read and, if so, where are we in the process?

Jeffrey Dean Morgan for me!

Sam Heughan gets my vote!

Thank you, Melindam. :)

For page count, do we use the first book that comes up when you type in the title? I got a NetGalley book that was published July 9, 2024 and it's 464 pages but the first one that pops up says 329. Big difference, so I just want to make sure.

Sounds good! GOOOOOOOOOOOOO TEAM!

I will participate in the battle round 3 if needed. If others who didn't get to read during the 1st battle want to, I'll wait until they pick. I am open to reading anything.

I am Christian Kane 100%, so if he doesn't make the cut I would say I will be crying along with Jenny if her man hadn't made it (but the did), but I have been crying too much over my computer crashing. No tears left!

I was late voting previously, but my vote would've been for Hemsworth. Duh!

If we can let Lucy, Marty, Ushashi and Lauri have a chance to pick a book early on as they didn't get much..."

No worries, Sophie. You have nothing to apologize for! I am 100% okay with my books being replaced. I just didn't know if they had been since I wasn't told in a post. I will always get my reading done but if something comes up, I will always let a captain know or post it in the thread. I don't want you to feel bad. No hard feelings at all. I just screw up so often that I knew I would have felt AWFUL if I had missed something and my books (that I couldn't find on the shelter tab) had cost us points! That's why I kind of freaked out. No problem that they had been replaced. :)

I'm READY! Thanks, Teddie. I have NO problem with my books being removed/replaced at all. I just wanted to make sure that's what happened. With my brain, I was not positive and thought I was missing something. LOL (If you've worked with me enough, you'll know what I mean!)

It looks like several of my books that I had for the shelter tab have been replaced. I only have ONE book now to read for the shelter, correct? I always worry that when someone moves my books and doesn't let me know then I think I might've messed up somewhere. One thing I wouldn't do is plan on a book and not do it without letting my team know. I am having issues with my computer (looks like we have to get a new one) so I am borrowing one to post my books now. I still have 2 days unless I am wrong. It appears that I only had my nature book, so I THINK I am finished for the mini. Please let me know if that's incorrect and I am missing something. IF anything else goes wrong, I will message the captain again.

Thanks, Teddie :)
