Lisa Kay sent you an invite to the "sister group," Judy. However, it will be a few more minutes before we place you. Several people want you as a member. ☺

We haven't forgotten about you, Judy. Far from it. Several Teams are trying to contact their members to see what Real Life has in store for this in the coming months.

Hopefully, we will assign you a Team sometime today.

I'm very sorry for the delay.

What do I do next. I'm usually a quick study but can't quite figure out what I should be reading, etc. If somebody can explain this to me I would gratefully appreciate the information.


message 809: by Nancy from NJ (new)

Katz Nancy from NJ (nancyk18) Do I begin with this?

✔ How many books you read in 2012. 115 books

✔ How many books you plan to read 2013 100 books

Now what do I read and where do I post what I've read and number of pages


message 810: by ❀Tea❀ (new)

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9624 comments That's enough for now Nancy. Now Mods need to decide where to put you. There are several teams in need of new members.
You'll get friend invite from Mod account or Lisa Kay and you'll get invited to join another group where game is set. When you get there, you'll need to join challenge of the team you're put in. Don't worry, you'll get all the links. ☺
As for reading, you can read whatever you want as long as it has over 160 pages. OK not everything - no picture books.
You'll need to create new shelf for this challenge (you can do that already unless you want team color in your name ☺). All books (>160) finished after April 12th count. As for page numbers, your team captain (and Mods) will from time to time check those and contact you if something is wrong.

You said those magic words, Blakely: "No rush!" Alas, we haven't heard back from everyone, yet. We should make a decision, one way or the other, by tomorrow. Thanks again for your patience.


message 820: by Emy (new)

Emy | 52 comments Is it too late to join? I've been thinking about it for ages but been feeling rather shy about the whole thing. :O

How many books you read in 2012? 75
How many books you plan to read 2013 >/160pages? I'm going to go for 80. My Goodreads challenge goal is 100, but that includes manga and they won't count for this. So, 80.
If you were in Round I, the percentage of goal reached would be appreciated,if you know it. I wasn't in Round I, sadly.
Would you be willing to be a Team Captain? Or Co-Captain? Not this time!

Riya Yeah Sapir- you're joining :D :D :D I'd ask if you could join Pewter Blue (my team), but I'm pretty sure we're full :/

Sure, Sapier. Welcome to the challenge! Let us review the numbers. It might not be for a couple of days. We have the Sunday Update tomorrow, and that will give us a better understanding what is going on with some members who haven't reported in for several weeks.

Thanks for your patience.

message 831: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 5588 comments I pm'd said member 3 days ago and no response. I don't know how long I need to wait before calling her inactive. If she is we will probably want to sign in to a new tracker. It's bad enough having 2 inactives on our tracker never mind 3.
