Trisha Hello!

As we get more challenges, is it possible to have a Challenge thread space where members can make a thread like (for me) "Trisha's Challenges" and put all their their own challenges for this group in there?

or do we already have this and I just missed it?

We have a basic thread explaining how to do this. Just read the second post in this thread:

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

If this isn't what you're looking for, just let me know and the mods and I will discuss the idea.


message 4: by Trisha (new)

Trisha it's not..but it's okay. I'll see if I can go without it. If I get too many challenges going, I'll propose the idea again :) Thx for your quick answer!

It's okay. I've just created a folder for members to post their own challenges here:

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/group_...

Sorry about the confusion.

We'd love too, but I'm not sure how many authors would be willing yet, but yeah we'll look into that! sry the one yesterday was put up so late last night!

Pink! but remember, this is a suggestion discussion... ;)

Kathy | 905 comments Jessica wrote: "Maybe you could have a few more book discussions."

Thanks Jessica! we haven't had as many before because we are a fairly new group, but we will have more for weekly/monthly reads!!


message 13: by Kathy (new)

Kathy | 905 comments Noel wrote: "Could you guys add like two or three different monthly reads from different genres?"

That's a good concept Noel! However, I think because we are a fairly new group, for now we will just stick to 1 while we get a feel for how everything is working. Don't forget, though that there are weekly reads if you are looking for more :) We really appreciate your suggestion though, Thanks!!!

As our group is relatively new, we probably won't be adding a new mod for a few weeks. We need the chance to get to know our members a little better before selecting one to become a mod.

Harriet wrote: "more book discussions? i dunno"

We're certainly working on creating more book discussions. If you have any in particular that you would like us to add, don't be afraid to ask.

Mpiggy Oh, something, I don't know where you would put it, but like, people who inspire you. Maybe 1,000 inspirational people. Or in random games. I don't know, just thinking randomly, just thought of it, didn't really know I was thinking it until now, just felt like suggesting something, I don't know why, but... yeah :)

Thank you to everyone who provided feedback on the new Weekly Read system. The moderators are currently working to establish an alternative method. If you have any suggestions as to what changes should be made, feel free to post them here.


message 31: by Olivia (new)

Olivia McCloskey (brewingupbooks) | 2470 comments Mod
The moderators are currently working on a resolution. We will post an announcement once an alternative has been found. Until then, we will not be holding any Weekly Reads.

Yeah...no.


message 34: by Kathy (new)

Kathy | 905 comments Good point, do you have any thread suggestions?


message 35: by Kate (new)

Kate ✨ is a dreamer if all the houses in Harry Potter went to war, who do you think would win?


message 36: by Kate (new)

Kate ✨ is a dreamer If there was a new house added, what would it be called & what at would be it's "trait"? (Ravenclaw- genius, Gryffindor- bravery, ect)


message 37: by Kathy (new)

Kathy | 905 comments Thanks Katey! Those are great topics! Would you like to post them or do you want a mod to?


message 38: by Kate (new)

Kate ✨ is a dreamer Go ahead


message 39: by Kate (new)

Kate ✨ is a dreamer Ohh, wait I have one ... for the City of Bones movie ... who else was shocked & a little angry by what Jace looked like???


message 40: by Kate (new)

Kate ✨ is a dreamer I thought it was kind of like switching the (actors) Jacob & Edward in Twilight movie!!!


message 41: by Kathy (new)

Kathy | 905 comments Awesome! If you have any others feel free to post them or pm a mod to post them :) :)


message 42: by Kate (new)

Kate ✨ is a dreamer K. I will, I like doing this.

You know, my dad always jokes that Dumbledore had a twin; smartwindow. If Dumbledore did have a twin, What would his name be? I vote Smartwindow ;)


message 43: by Kathy (new)

Kathy | 905 comments Probably going to add that as well if you don't mind!


message 44: by Kate (new)

Kate ✨ is a dreamer I don't.

I think that Kane Chronicles & Heroes of Olympus will combine at some point. Because in The Serpents shadow, Sadie & Carter's mom predicted "other gods" and why else would Rick Riordan be doing 2 series at once?

U may also add that one ;)


message 45: by Kathy (new)

Kathy | 905 comments Haha Thanks!

Olivia McCloskey (brewingupbooks) | 2470 comments Mod
Thanks Kate! Those are all great suggestions! If anyone else has any suggestions regarding new threads, you can either create them yourself, or post them here for a mod to create.


message 47: by [deleted user] (new)

A few suggestions I have are maybe we could create thread where people can post if they are trying to compete a gaol but need some encouragement to do so. We could support one another to follow our dreams. Another idea I had was a health and fitness thread. What do you do to stay in shape and to take better care of yourself?


message 48: by Olivia (new)

Olivia McCloskey (brewingupbooks) | 2470 comments Mod
Those are great ideas! I'll get started on them now.


message 49: by Kate (new)

Kate ✨ is a dreamer We need a catching fire movie compared to Hunger games movie compared to the books thread & also Mockingjay movie & how horrible we think it'll b
