Apoorv ’s comments from the The Perks Of Being A Book Addict group.

Donna and Noel, assuming both of you are still in EDT, I think the last book finished by the two of you, would work for the March Mini.

Can you check if the books fit into any of the tasks?
If not, I will use them for spell-outs. Thanks! :D

Yo, people of Swensen Land!
The March Mini Challenge is upon us!!

And this time, it's slightly more specific.
Please take a minute to stop by the official spreadsheet to see all the tasks we have to complete!

Starting in roughly 20 hours from now!

AFAIK, it has to be the word 'three' to for it to qualify for #3.
Or else, of course, it has to have anything that starts with an H.

I can make the secret group if needed. No worries at all.

Well, you might want to spoiler-ize that. We don't want to give away the answers to other snooping teams! :P

Donna wrote: "So we are just waiting on the two mini challenge items so we can solve it, right?"

We are waiting on Rebecca's book to get the last clue, and then my book before we can submit our answer.

I should be done in a couple of hours.

We have successfully completed ALL THE HANDS for February!
Pat yourself on the back, girls!
We did it!
Woot! Woot!

March cards
Countdown to March

Card Req Comp Left
0 2 0 2
1 10 0 10
2 5 0 5
3 10 0 10
4 6..."


The formula was referencing the wrong thing, so I had to change them on the spreadsheet, but it should not affect anything else.
So, we should be good with these numbers for March.

In the meanwhile, Donna has requested for Clue #1 and Clue #2 for the mini challenge.

Once we get those, figuring out that mystery will get us 50 points as a bonus.

Alright, we are almost done here.
The only books left are being read by Shamber, Rebecca and Apoorv.

So, if the others have their books almost done, I would urge you to finish them just after the deadline, so we don't miss them and capture them for March.

Sorry, Shamber is reading an I book.
But, Kate also has one done!

I would rather move Christy's book to Wild Draw 4, since Kate is reading an I Book.

Donna wrote: "looks like we can request the first clue.. should I go ahead and ask for it?"

You can now actually request two clues! :D

To that point, if any of you finish your book well before time and think can surely squeeze in another book, drop in a message.

If not, try and prolong the reading a few hours, so that the book gets counted for March and doesn't go unaccounted for!

Please do!
I'm curious to know what the hell happened to Faustus Dutton!

Rebecca, I can cover the Q book if you are doing the science book.
No worries! :)

Sweet! Such awesome teamwork!
I love it! :D

I will see if I can get my hands on a Q book.

Also, will dig into the read books and see if some book fits the MPG Science criteria. If yes, it'd be a clean sweep for us!

OMG! This challenge just got so much fun! :D

Christy wrote: "I have one that will work for #4&5 - For the dukes eyes only. Starting it now!"

Lovely! That covers the Draw 2 as well. Three birds in a masterstroke, Christy!

Oh, yeah, and if in all of this, you guys come across anything that can work for this, please jot it down.

Mini Challenge
- Read a book where the main character works in the medical field.
- Read a book tagged MPG science
- Has any character with a Q name.

If any of your already read books, fit any of this, please hollar, so I can move stuff around. :=)
