Team threads will be posted within the next 12(ish) hours

I know everyone is super keen to meet their team members, but be aware that when teams are first posted they will be closed until the captain has a chance to visit the thread and reserve a few spots ; or for 24 hours (whichever happens first) ; and then will be opened for team members to visit. You must check-in to your thread by Jan 26 (that means visiting the team thread and making a comment to introduce yourself to your team).

As for the theme for team names this year....

2020 is a pretty special year. Check out these predictions and these reasons and it will give you a bit of a hint as to our theme.

By the way, is anyone hungry? I feel like something sweet....

We are going to start putting the teams together ; so sign ups received from now may not make it into the first round of sign ups, but instead be considered reserves.

Around the 21st we will have the teams together and team threads posted and will send a broadcast message

Please remember that as per the rules, Children's books are only accepted if by word count they can be verified as more than 25,000 words using arbookfind.com or more than 3 hours of audio using a reputable website (e.g. audible, overdrive).

You may wish to check your books and update your estimate for reading per month if your books may not count

Just responded. Remember 2 of us are in Europe and 1 in Australia so timezones mean that we can't always respond immediately :)

And another top tip....

When signing up your Goodreads User ID is a number followed by a dash followed by a name

I have just gone into the sign ups and changed a whole bunch that just gave their goodreads url (www.goodreads.com/example). This doesn't work for our formulas.
It must be a number, a dash, a name

We currently have two people that we are unable to find

Mikayla signed up as an id of "summertime"
Jodi Espindola signed up as "Jodi Espindola"

edit --- Third one is Sara Graine. The user ID of 151204-Sara does not relate to a profile that is a member of this group, or named Sara

You won't be assigned to a team unless you message us with who you are :)

Just a reminder about sign ups, as stated in the rules:

"SPECIAL NOTE: If you signed up last year, but were replaced because the captain did not hear from you, or you withdrew from the challenge, you will need to send a message to the Pixie account as to what has changed this year. Your sign up will get flagged and you will not be placed in a team unless you message us first."

So far we have three people who signed up and have been flagged, but haven't contacted us. You will NOT be assigned to a team if you were replaced last year unless you message this account, as above, by Jan 21.
