Katya Hello Team mates....I added those of you who are not already a pal...as a Goodreads friend!

We are going to win as long as we stick together....I am so excited.


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) I'm here!


message 6: by Katya (new)

Katya I just sent a message to our team mates.....This is going to be fun.....


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) I've been trying to think of names, but all that sticks in my head at the moment is Monty Python's Search for the Holy Grail-

The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch:
Three shall be the number of counting, and the number of counting shall be three...

Katya It is funny....last time we just called our selves "Team 2"....lol

And we spelled our own name wrong: "Viscious Vixens" or some foolishness like that.

We were thick vixens rather than mean and angry vixens! LOL


"Three Blind Mice...See how they run!"

All that comes to mind is Three blind mice and that is stupid!

Dawn (Kat N Hat) (katnhat) The knights who say ni? LOL Love that movie.


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) I'm jiggy with the Knights Who Say Ni... but I love anything Monty Python


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) Three Book-a-teers (like Musketeers)


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) 3rd Time's the Charm


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) 3rd Team's the Charm


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) sorry- just doing brainstorming... more like brain diarrhea


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) I triple dog dare ya!

Danie (heyydanie) Hi all! I'm so excited to be on a team with all of you (:


message 17: by Katya (new)

Katya Yeayyy Danie....welcome!


message 18: by ~Leslie~ (new)

~Leslie~ (akareadingmachine) Hello Team - sorry I'm late checking in. Back to School night was tonight. My 4th child - senior in h.s. Boo hoo!!!
I like anything Monty Python, but I'm good with anything. I am terrible at coming up with names. And Katya, I cracked up every time I saw "viscuous vixens". I thought that was so funny.
I love this game and am excited to play another round. Does it start tomorrow?


message 19: by Danie (new)

Danie (heyydanie) This is my first time participating, so if I do anything wrong, feel free to let me know.


As far as names, maybe Bookalicious? Booknerds?

Maybe that mistake was a lucky charm...because we won last time!

WE need a name and a captain...who wants to do the honors? Alana?


Turtlecollector Dennis Hi. I am excited to play this round. I love to read so finding the items shouldn't be too hard. The difficulty comes in only being able to claim one from each set per book since you are never sure what might come up in the next book.

I am really bad at coming up with creative names, but I do like 3rd Team's the Charm. It is the 3rd Round and we are on team three, so we should be the winners.

I also don't think I will have time to be the captain. I am a captain for another team challenge and I am participating in a lot of other challenges for several groups. I am amazed at how much Dawn can get done. I see her involved in many of the same groups I am part of.


message 22: by Katya (new)

Katya I have to go play this game now....lol

I think it starts the 31st of August...he harassed Dawn into setting up teams so we could get started with the prep work.

I think the key to winning is communication with one another. I asked to be everyone's friend and you can send me a message any time.

We need to check in....nothing more frustrating for your team members than you falling off the face of the earth.

Also, you want to read books that get the maximum amount of points and if you have a choice pick the hardest items first.


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) Mr. Owl Says Three

(Like the Owl that takes three licks trying to find out how many licks it takes to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop)

I'll be captain if nobody else wants to. I muddled through it last time... I think my team was second place


message 25: by Danie (new)

Danie (heyydanie) Okay, so my understanding is that Dawn will choose an item, and we have to read a book with that item in it or on the cover? And I can find a book with multiple items from the list? That way if Dawn calls an item I've already claimed, I don't have to read a book for that one? Am I understanding correctly?

Some days it amazes me too. I counted 'em up 5 team challenges starting in September. Oh my... That is going to take some creative reading.

Then again some days it doesn't amaze me, I remember I have no life.


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) As you can tell, I love coming up with names- that's why I've been spewing ideas out.

Close. or maybe yes but with some clarification.

I will post an item. You will have to read a book with that item on the cover, in the tittle or written anywhere in the book. You can find 1 item from the 3 other catagories.

You don't HAVE to read another book but that will hurt your team... and then they might hurt you. You won't get credit for that same item again, but you can claim 3 extras that you didn't already have.


message 29: by Danie (new)

Danie (heyydanie) Okay, got it. And once we've all claimed all the items, game over?


message 30: by Katya (new)

Katya I got it....once we all claim our items we win.


message 31: by Katya (new)

Katya Work it girl-(Alana) I am terrible at names


message 32: by Katya (last edited Aug 23, 2012 07:00PM) (new)

Katya I wonder if turtlecollector will let me call her TC or Turtle?


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) I have to give up the computer to my husband for the night. I'll keep thinking and post any new ideas in the morning!

Nighty night teammates!


Turtlecollector Dennis I'm here and I posted in #21 and then had to go check my other challenges. I don't care what you want to call me, my real name is Kirsten if that helps as well. I collect all sorts of things with turtles so when I was thinking of a unique username that is what I came up with.


message 35: by Katya (last edited Aug 23, 2012 07:03PM) (new)

Katya Triple threat?....no...dumb

I'm readen' a book man, I'm readen' a book!

Turtlecollector Dennis I am also hoping that this game will give me new ideas for books to read. I love seeing what other people read and getting recommendations. However, my TBR list is starting to fill up my three ring binder already. I work in a library and can usually find any book I want to read somehow.

I also have to get off the computer now. I will check in again tomorrow or maybe even on my phone later tonight.

I collect eggs and anything with an egg on it.

I need to start singing that to my kids!


message 40: by ~Leslie~ (new)

~Leslie~ (akareadingmachine) I vote for either Katya or Alana as Team captains. I love that we have first and second place winners from the last game on our team!
And I agree about communication being key. I am not working at the moment and am on the computer alot, so I check in pretty frequently.
Also, I read my books as ebooks (I have a nook and Kindle)which gives me a search function. If people are reading something I have, I can do a search for items if anyone needs it.
So excited for this to start.


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) Well I wasn't able to come up with any more snazzy name ideas... been writing alot of blog articles lately, I think it sucked out my creative juices temporarily.

Wait... one more
Three for the Money


Turtlecollector Dennis I also vote for Alana or Katya as Captain. Alana, I also like that last idea for a name: Three for the Money


message 43: by Katya (new)

Katya Hey....I have a great idea-How about this for a name:

It is Round Three after all....

We can be: "The Round Three Winners!"

or Round Three Reading Robots
or Round Three Book Babes

I like the idea of it starting with "round three: though...what do you think?


message 44: by Katya (new)

Katya I was captain last time and thought it would be nice to not be captain...but what our team did was had co-captains that worked...Maybe Alana would like to do it or one of the new gals?

If you folks really don't want to do it...I can do it but would rather you try....at the very least co-caps.


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) I was Capt for Round 2 Team 4... it really doesn't matter to me. If someone else wants to do it, great. If not, I'll step up.


message 46: by Katya (new)

Katya Sounds good to me. :-)

Round Three Reading Robots

Sometimes people think that is what I am since I can read quickly and go through books very fast. I always have a book around and sneak in a few minutes of reading even while doing errands.


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) What about:

Round Three, Team 3- Coincidence? NO!


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) kind of a mouthful... but plays on team and round
