Team Challenge: Fantasyland: Fantasyland | Round 1 ~ Questions & Answers

[Belinda]

Just wanted to put it out there in case anyone had objections....didn't want anyone to think I was sneaking in early :P

[Julianne]

Captain for team 5 checking in. Team name is Femforce Five.

[Rachel-RN]

I am captain for Team 9- Divine Nine

[D.G.]

Hey Steph...will be giving the "go" every week or just the first week? I thought you were only doing it the first week and after that we would just follow whatever time we did the first week? Meaning that if the first week I posted at 7:30pm my time, I'd do the same in the following weeks?

[Mary X]

I understood her to say that she will give the start time the first week. Then every week after that the team captains should draw their card around the same time each week.

[Steph, Serious series addict]

★MARK THIS TIME★
The time is now 6:15a, Sunday JST. ;)

Team captains, you may now draw a card and get your team on the board. This week, each team will move on the board. From this week forward, however, in order for your team to move forward, all members must have read, rated and reviewed their book by this time (give or take) next week.

The plan was for me to give the go this week only. This will hopefully give everyone a reference starting point for each week going forward. Team captains may draw as early as 6a (JST) and as late as ... well, as late in the day as needed. I'd prefer no one start any earlier than this time each week, if possible.

Cheers, Game On and Happy Reading, everyone! :D

[Julianne]

Ok, so I drew the queen of clubs...which is bat wing...which is on spacr 101...so our first move is to space 101?

That's a whole lot of board skipped, so I just want to make sure I'm doing it right.

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

That's what it looks like to me Julianne: Wing = 101

[Julianne]

Cool :-)

[Amy ~Lover of Books~]

Does this book cover look purple enough or is it another color?

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Yep,it's purple enough :)

Thanks!

[★Meghan★]

Just double checking to see if it is purple enough. If not I have

[Josie]

Steph, you get up so early!

[[deleted user]]

[~Melissa~]

Will this be good for purple ? Otherwise I have

I would say Beautiful Creaures is mosly black. Not sure about the other one though!

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

I think we'd classify and as all purple enough :)

Shoot! I forgot to remove that card from your deck, Julianne! >;) LOL!

Something about these team games has me waking up early on Sundays. LOL! I don't normally drag outta bed that early, if I can help it. :)

[Belinda]

Been tossing this one up: blue or purple?

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Belinda, I checked several different places and they all looked blue, except for one thumbnail that looked purple but when you expanded it, it was blue. So I'd have to say Blue.

[Belinda]

Thanks Sandra. It may be my moniter. And your right: thumbnail - purple, expanded - blue. I'll add it to my blue covers :)

If the rules are the same as they were for Bingo, you can.

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Yes, you may change your book as many times as you'd like, as long as it fits the criteria (color, 200+ pgs, etc). :)

[Steph, Serious series addict]

You're welcome!

Hey Steph , my laptops completely bonked off , with the os gone , hard disk gone , etc and I just have my mobile to access the internet with . This week I may not be able to post proper hyperlinks to the reviews , you know how difficult it is with a mobile . Would you be ok with it , if I just post the comment numbers for the reviews in the points thread?

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Either that or one of your team mates could do it for you.

Good luck with the computer Karen!!!

[[deleted user]]

Ok ! Thanks Sandra :)

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Man, sorry to hear that, Karen. Been there and it sucks! Best of luck on the fix/retrieval.

Sadly there is no fix / retrieval , it will cost nearly the price of a new laptop :( :( only silver lining is that I saved most of my stuff on my hard drive , so all of it isn't lost.

[Steph, Serious series addict]

That sucks, but YAY for back-ups! I lost a depressing amount of photos and docs when mine crashed/died in 2010. Painful.

[[deleted user]]

It is very , happened to me once long ago when I by mistake uninstalled my os :p after that always keep backups , have learned my lesson.

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Learned mine too. I always backed up, just not frequently enough. I know better now.

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

I too sympathize, I lost my 18 mth old hard drive back in November, luckily I'd backed up all my stuff.

Still, things are never the same again. Only cost me $69 for a new one but I'm still trying to get the right look and feel back.

I've got a question

Do our reviews have to be posted on the game board & movement thread before we pick our next card or can we pick and then post a link to the reviews along with our card pick and color for this week?

I hope that makes since :D

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

~♥ Kat ♥~

All reviews must be posted on your thread prior to picking next weeks card. Then when you pick the card and announce it on the Game Board & Team Movements thread you also link to the list which is linked to the reviews. (very similar to Bingo)

Now obviously you have a computer problem and we are happy to work around that. So just do your best :)


From the Rules:
❉ All team members must read, rate and review their book BEFORE moving on; post your book choice, rating and review on your team thread. For this reason, it's important that each team member be able to read, rate and review a book a week. If a team is unable to draw because of a missing team member's post, the entire team will have to wait a week before drawing again.

❉ Captains, be sure to post your team board movements (color of the spot and spot #) each week, along with the book choices, read dates and a link to each team member's review on your team thread. Please share your team's game board progress here as well as your team's thread.

[[deleted user]]

Thats kinda what I ment I knew that the reviews had to be posted on our own thread I just wanted to be sure if the link to the reviews had to be posted before we drew our new card :) I probably could have worded it better :) it was still pretty early in the moring when I posted :) and I never said anything about a computer problem :D

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Sorry Kat, got you mixed up with another member, it was early morning for me too ;)

[[deleted user]]

LOL... it happens all the time Sandra :)

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Thanks Kat ;)

[Rachel-RN]

I would like to read but I'm not sure if blue enough....thoughts?

[Paris]

Is purple enough?

Thanks y'all!

[Midu]

is blue enough?

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Rachel, I see yours as more black than blue, but blue is the primary secondary color, so why not. ;)

Paris, yours is definitely purple, IMO.

And, Midu, I see yours as 1/2 blue 1/2 teal/green.

[Paris]

Thanks Steph! Can't wait to start reading it!

[Steph, Serious series addict]

:D Hope you like it!
