You can count books read since the start since we're still in round 1.

I'm glad you're enjoying it.

Anxiously waiting :)

Will we get a full set of new goals at the beginning of round 2 Or will our unfulfilled goals roll over to the next round?

[Kazen]

They carry over, but the team we're paired with will be able to help us fill them. Example thisaway. :D

[Maritza]

any suggestions for books on a plane

@Moderators:
We have already had this task: Read a book that contains the word leek just a few days ago.
Can you get the same task so soon...if at all again?

Yes. Tasks are given random.
I even think one team had same task twice at the same time.

ok. thanks

[Denise]

Yes, we had that socialite goal twice at the same time, haha. Three times total. And a couple other goals have come up twice though there were a few days in between at least. :)

[Kelly]

It truly is random with no basis in what's already been done. I think we tend to try to make patterns in things so they don't appear random. Just like getting a flipped penny heads side up 10 times in a row doesn't feel random even if it is.

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

Yep, we currently have an author born in Canada as 2 of our 3 open goals!

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

Looks like Tea beat me... Oh no, I can update a book for you... off I go!

Round 1 standings are up. Round 2 teams have been announced.

We're working on getting up some combined threads so you can chat with your new team.

You may start working with your new partner team to help with each others goals. Remember, only books read in round 2 may be counted towards goals in round 2.

[Kelly]

Sarah wrote: "So we are now going to have 6 goals?"

Yes, you and your partner team can work on goals from either team. It will still use the original spreadsheets. If you want to grant access to your partner captains just let us know via message to the mod account.

Is there a countdown clock to the end of round II?

Sarah wrote: "The Neighbor for a book that starts with the letter N??"

It's fine to ignore The, an and a for the title for books that start with the letter goals.

[Allison Ann]

I saw that one of the teams had a player drop out. I still can't read a ton of books (no time) and I won't be online much until the end of the month, but should I fill out an application thingie anyway?

That's fine. I can assign you to a team. The teams get rebalanced each round in this game so it works out nicely for adding/dropping people midway through.

[Allison Ann]

I've been following the game (when I should have been working) so I have a pretty good idea of how it works now. Seems like tons of fun. My work is going to suffer..... :)

[Emily]

Is there a countdown clock for Round 2?

Are you planning on signing up still. I haven't seen yours come through.

I thought I sent it yesterday but it was very early and apparently I did something wrong. So I sent it again just now.

They are in post 6 of this thread.

[Brittney]

Would this book be good enough to cover the goal of a Green cover?

[Ebb]

Thanks for a great game Moderators :)

[Teri-K]

I suspect this was a lot of work for the mods and captains, but I hope they felt it was wroth it. I had a great time!
