[Paris]

Woohoo! Hello ladies! So excited to get started on this game with this team. I already have a great feeling about us.

I've been team captain for other challenges so I'm more than happy to do it if no one else wants to, but if someone else is game, then I'm all for that too! I'll start seeing what I can come up with for team name ideas. Also Crystal I'm gonna send you a friend request just so you know.

Wow...reading that, I sound like I just chugged a 5 hour energy or something. lol

[Regina]

Hi Paris!! I am so excited about this game. :D

I cannot be captain and I love that you volunteered.

Hi team!

[Crystal S]

Hey y'all. I've been captain before but I'm not in the mood/don't have the time this time around so I'm glad you volunteered Paris.

[Regina]

I guess we should pick a name. Ideas?

[Regina]

Some ideas (I wo't be hurt if you don't like any of them):

The Sexy Sixers
The Supreme Six
The Sizzling Sextet
The Sassy Six
The Seductive Sextet

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

I vote for Paris to be captain. I'm on GR almost everyday, but Girl Scout Cookie Sales start this next weekend which is going to cut into my computer time.

[Regina]

Ours end Friday! :) The moms who are the cookie moms have my respect. That is a hard job.

[Paris]

Regina, I like The Sexy Sixers and The Sassy Six.

And thanks for your vote of confidence ladies. We'll wait for Karen to stop by and see if she's interested in it.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

I've got an amazing mom as a co-leader who is handling it all like a pro. But I am the Service Unit Cookie manager too. It is the other troops I am worried about.

Hey Paris , we are on the same team here also. I had also really wanted to be captain this time , but if you want to be then thats fine also.

[[deleted user]]

Hey Team , glad to be here and very very excited for the game to begin:)

I really like sassy six as a name.

[Paris]

Karen, the role of captain is all yours! So excited to be on a team with you again.

[[deleted user]]

Me too :) Thanks and lets see if the other team members are OK with it.:)

[Regina]

Hi Karen, thanks for volunteering!

Yikes Dawn, that is a lot to think about and manage.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

The first name that comes to mind is Sixletes. It is a type of candy and since this is based off candyland...


Regina your names are good none really jump at me. I'd be ok with any of them, but I'm going to see if I can come up with some more.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Ok, here is my suggestions

Sixie Pixies
Sixth Senses
Back to Basix
Quick Fix Six
Book Trix Six
Sixilicious
Basix Book Babes
Psychic Six
Read in Sixty Seconds (play off the movie Gone in Sixty Seconds)
Six Books Under
Six Degrees of Books

[Paris]

Wow Dawn, those are some great name ideas. I can't believe I didn't think of Sixlets. I have some of those in my kitchen right now. lol

I like Read in Sixty Seconds.

[[deleted user]]

Read in sixty seconds is cool !

[Regina]

I like Read in Sixty Seconds too!

[Crystal S]

Just posting before I head to bed (night shift worker here, yuck). Read in Sixty Seconds is fine by me; team name never matters much to me anyway.

Team captain doesn't matter to me either. Whoever wants it more can have it. :-)

Off to dreamland I go.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

I liked Read in Sixty Seconds too. I love it when the name picking is easy. I am good with Karen as captain too. I'm really ok as long as it isn't me.

Steph said in one of the discussion threads the cards would be able to be drawn Sunday Morning just like bingo.

Just out of curiosity what time is that for you all? Sunday Morning when the Bingo Item was usually called was my 3:00 Saturday Afternoon.

[Regina]

Me too - I am central time (I am in Chicago)

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

I'm actually mountain time - Colorado.

[[deleted user]]

I haven't played bingo , so I hope that a test time is called .

My time zone is IST which is around 11:30 hrs ahead of CST.

[Paris]

I am in Seattle, so it was usually between 1 and 2 pm my time for Bingo.

Karen, I think she'll be doing a test time so that we can all figure out when it'll be. Now that I think about it, it's great that you're the team captain. I work on Saturday's now and although the card time is during my lunch time, my lunch can sometimes get pushed back if I'm too busy.

I'm excited to get started. Is it go time yet? lol

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Adding Miss Karen as team captain. Post your chosen team name on our Q&A thread and we'll update for ya.

I'll be posting Sunday morning, my time, for all captains to draw. That will give everyone a goal time for future weeks. :)

Happy Reading, Ladies!

I think all were good with it. I am.

[[deleted user]]

Ok , so I will post it in the thread :)

[[deleted user]]

Btw I'm hoping for guidance from all of you who have previously been captains , because this is my first time !

[Regina]

You will do great!

[[deleted user]]

Thanks regina :D

[Paris]

You will do an awesome job Karen.

[[deleted user]]

Thanks Paris for the encouragement :)

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

You will be fine, Captain sounds so much harder than it is. If you have questions just ask.

[[deleted user]]

Thanks Dawn :)
I definitely will .

I will be sending friend requests to all of you , hope that's ok.

[Crystal S]

Yeah, captain-ing is not hard at all. It's just takes more time than I have to commit to it right now. You'll do an awesome job.

[Regina]

I can't wait for tomorrow! I am holding off on picking my next audio book but man it is hard to not just pick one and dive in. :D

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

I am trying to play catch up and get some ones I've started finished so I can start something new tomorrow. I am hoping for a blue, that seems to be dominating my shelves right now.

[Regina]

I am okay with whatever is called -- I went through and color coded on my shelves all my audio books I want to read, arcs I need to read, and library books I have. Looking forward to the call!

[[deleted user]]

I can't wait either ! Hopefully blue or red is called!

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

LOL, I color coded my on hand books too. I get a lot from the library so they fluxuate alot.

[Paris]

Hopefully I'll have time to do that all tomorrow morning. I spent the day hanging out with my nephew instead of preparing for tomorrow. With my new work schedule I forget what day it is really easily. Today is my work Sunday, but Friday in the real world.

I just got home and saw that my DVR was recording and immediately thought that I don't have anything that records on Sundays at 8 so it shouldn't be on. Duh. It's Nikita night.

[[deleted user]]

Its saturday here and a national holiday ! So have time to read a lot today!

I haven't really color coded my books but I have a book picked out for every color.
