message 51: by Laura (new)

Laura (lglovett) | 1444 comments I would of course like to be in.

I read 76 books in 2012

It looks like I will be a bit above my current goal for the year which is 80. I would say around 85. (I would love to be able to read 100, but I don't think that is attainable for me at this time)

I am currently around 19% of the goal reached for the year.

I would be willing to be a team captain if I was needed.


message 52: by Barb (new)

Barb I'll play again!


How many books you read in 2012: 225

How many books you plan to read 2013 150ish

If you were in Round I, the percentage of goal reached would be appreciated, if you know it. at this moment, I'm at 31% of my goal (49 books)

Would you be willing to be a Team Captain? Due to responsibilities elsewhere on GR, I'd rather not

I would if nobody else wants to and you need somebody to fill in otherwise I am happy to be just a particpant.

I do have a question though. If we played in round I and already have a shelf for this challenge do we have to have a new shelf for the second round or can we continue to use the shelf we have already?

I read 115 books in 2012.
✔ How many books you plan to read 2013

I'm currently at 21% (23/111).
✔ Would you be willing to be a Team Captain?
Not really - health issues mean I can be offline for days at a time. Playing's not an issue - a quick update is easier than trying to manage a team.


message 64: by Cathie (new)

Cathie (catitude) | 999 comments Ok, the above answer leads to another question: Do we need to take all of our books off the shelf that we have already read, if we keep the same shelf name? (in order to know what new ones are being applied to the new team count?) Sorry, I'm just confused (googly eyes here)

Ok so we can keep the same shelf. ANother question though do we clear off the shelf from round I or leave all the books on there and just add to it for round II?

Alexa | 118 comments ✔ How many books you read in 2012.
Well I made my account in December because I couldn't log into my old one but I'm pretty sure I read 75 or 77.

My goal for this year is 75, but its most likely that I'm going to read more.

42/75, (39%), 29 books ahead.

I believe I have added all requests! If I missed anyone, please let me know.

Can someone please check the Google Spreadsheet to verify that anyone with the link can view it? Thank you.

Please note the Key at the bottom is for the CURRENT ROUND I. (Yes, I've been color-coding you all along, you just didn't know it. ☺)

No one has been assigned a Team for Round II, yet.

Also, if you see your hyperlinks in the last few columns, and your Profile is set to Private, be assured NO one will be able to access it, except your GRs friends.

So, we´re not yet sorted, if I got it right? And names in black means that member is not in any team in Round I? Just checking.

message 99: by Monica (new)

Monica (nutz4reading) I started this on my computer at work and we lost Internet connection. Don't know if we will get it back anytime soon. So redoing it on my phone. Sorry if this turns into a double post.

I want to join in round II. I will have to check the pictures out at home since I am at work and they are blocked when I click them.

How many books read in 2012?
I read 32 books in 2012. I believe most of them were with in the page range.

How many books you plan to read 2013? (For the whole year, not just what remains).
My goal for 2013 in this challenge is 35. I set my main goal as 75 for another site that I am on and plus the books that don't make the page count total for this challenge.

If you were in Round I, the percentage of goal reached would be appreciated, if you know it. I am currently at 26% for round I.

Would you be willing to be Team Captain? I would be willing to help out a captain. I am not able to access Google Documents at work and I am not sure how to work it. Don't want to be captain and fail in my duties right from the start

Yeah I finished the post. Happy Reading All!!
