Sorry, Erin, we had to resort to reshuffling, though we are really trying to match people with someone from their Team or a GRs friend.

You need to go here to sign-up. It isn't too late. We need a few holes to plug.

Now!

Yes, you have signed up, Phyllis.

We are letting the Team Captains/Co-captains in first.

Expect an invite later tonight or tomorrow for the "sister group." However, books finished from today onward will count for both Round I and Round II, if you tag them as such.

You may use the same bookshelf name.

◈ Remember to look for your invitation under groups on your Home Page to actually join.
    Click on the word "group."

Even if they were started earlier? I'm just trying to figure out how quickly I need to finish the books I have in progress :) Thanks!

This is what I posted:

I must admit,from a player standpoint, I had trouble with the start date. I usually have lots of books on the go(sometimes 10 or 12) at one time and I can't remember on what day I started which books because that isn't really of importance to me. I just care about the finish date and getting them marked off of my TBR shelf LOL. So having to remember to put down a start date for this challenge was a REAL CHALLENGE for me LOL

So if I am following and understanding this correctly, we aren't going to have to remember to use start dates for Round II?


This was my answer:

Correct, ♥Robin♥. You don't need to worry about that. That was a GRs glitch more than us wanting you to start the book before 2013... because of the year change. So, we will probably have the same trouble next year.

Hope that helps answer your question Barb :) They are only watching for finish dates!

Nice to know that I'm not the only one having trouble keeping up with all the the posts concerning Round Two. I'm just trying to keep up with what I'm supposed to do as a participant.

Yes it's good until April 30. That is if you want to finish it up. Just because we WON the Tower challenge doesn't mean that we finish Team C's challenge :D

I'll keep going if I get any more books to add.
