JoLene (trvl2mtns) | 705 comments We are in 4th place again!!!!

Keep up the good work.

Given that the mods are giving us more challenges, I don't think that we need more mini-challenges.

Captain Cupcake | 628 comments The time has come! It is upon us!
Cupcake prizes! Yummy treats!
But to get them, first you must
complete some mighty feats!

The start you’ll find when first you look
at Captain Cupcake’s hideout...
The link to which is now provided,
through this shameless shoutout:
Captain Cupcake's Hideout!

message 213: by Hina (new)

Hina (hinaj) | 884 comments I knew it!!


message 214: by Barbara ★ (new)

Barbara ★ Yup! if I recall the last round started easy too. I find those slider puzzles to be really irritating. I like all the other ones much better.


message 215: by Hina (new)

Hina (hinaj) | 884 comments Barbara,
Puzzle 30 is up and I have a class to go to. Let me know if you do it so I wont.


message 216: by Barbara ★ (new)

Barbara ★ I did Puzzle 31 so you can skip it Hina. An easy one.


message 217: by JoLene (new)

JoLene (trvl2mtns) | 705 comments I don't mind the slider puzzles, but I couldn't figure out how to copy the image into a post on my iPad :-(


message 218: by Hina (new)

Hina (hinaj) | 884 comments I posted Puzzle 32.

I don't know if you can post through the ipad, but it would be something good to know.

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments JoLene, I think you have to hold the Home button down for a couple of seconds and then press Power Down. Then go to your photos applications.

jingles You are wonderful, Hina!

I've tried doing a couple of the slider puzzles, and I've really had a hard time. Still, I keep trying.


message 229: by Hina (last edited Jun 05, 2013 10:00AM) (new)

Hina (hinaj) | 884 comments Keep trying. For me, I keep trying because I can't seem to stop after starting something. LOL. Eventually by luck or practice, you get it.

Hina (hinaj) | 884 comments Puzzle 42 is up, but I haven't gotten to it yet. I have got to get rid of alot of paper on my desk. So anyone else interested in doing it?


message 232: by jingles (new)

jingles I've been working on it, Hina, but haven't gotten it done yet.

I've got to get back to work, but will try again later to see if I can accomplish it.


message 233: by jingles (new)

jingles I've posted Puzzle #42.

Puzzle #43 is up, which is a crossword puzzle. Honestly, I don't have the time or the patience to even look at it right now.

Um...last time I checked, I need to be reading, as Electric Lime is closing in on us.

I know, I know. I just need to chill out! Lol.

@Hina - great job!


message 238: by Hina (new)

Hina (hinaj) | 884 comments If someone has the time, can you do puzzle 44? I am kind of bored of doing slider puzzle.

Thanks Jingles!


message 241: by jingles (new)

jingles You're welcome, Hina.

And you were right. The more you practice, the easier they get.


message 242: by JoLene (new)

JoLene (trvl2mtns) | 705 comments hum....somehow my notification have gotten turned off on this thread (possibly I have too many notifications :-D)

Great job on all the puzzles --- hopefully my schedule will lighten up --- I like doing them.


message 243: by JoLene (new)

JoLene (trvl2mtns) | 705 comments BTW ---
We are still hanging out at 4th place (slow and steady wins the race ;-)
There is a tie for first, then a second place team and then us!


message 244: by JoLene (new)

JoLene (trvl2mtns) | 705 comments So --- we seem to be a pretty quiet group. No need to respond if you want to stay quiet but I thought I throw out some "get to know you questions" - answer none, all or some!

1) Where were you born?
2) Favorite genre?
3) Can you play a musical instrument?
4) When not reading, do you have another hobby?
5) Favorite vacation?


message 245: by Hina (new)

Hina (hinaj) | 884 comments 1. Born in Pakistan. Living in Chicago, IL for almost 20 years.
2. Its always a toss-up. My favorite is historical romance but I love reading contemporary and paranormal just as much since I joined GR 3 years ago.
3. Can't play an instrument, but always wanted to learn something like the piano or violin.
4. When not reading, I like to try cooking/baking something new. If not, I like taking pictures.
5. Umm....So far I have like all the places I have gone to which was mostly in the USA. But my favorite has to be Singapore. It was just awesome!! I wish we had more time to spend there.


message 246: by Hina (new)

Hina (hinaj) | 884 comments puzzle 45 is done!


message 247: by Hina (new)

Hina (hinaj) | 884 comments Anyone interested in doing puzzle 46 or 47? I don't want to hog all the puzzles.


message 248: by jingles (new)

jingles I've got puzzle 47 done, and am getting ready to post it now.


message 249: by jingles (new)
