Works now. Thanks!

20 more minutes and then all books finished will start counting toward the Moderators June/July 7% Challenge.

Also, for ease of tallying books(we can use information from the same list of books for both challenges this way) these books will be counting toward the June Hobbit Game based on page count although they may have technically been finished in the last few hours of May depending on your time zone.

Less that 10 minutes!

Also, because I can't make up my mind:
Is this red?
In person it looks equal parts red, black and white

For where? RaT had rule color had to be at least 50% of cover. Now it's enough that color leaves right impression. I would go with yes.

[md]

It was, though I'm making up for it by reading a book that has no cover on GR!

You can go here and ask LK to add cover.
TC is also GR librarian and can do it too (I think).

[Turtlecollector Dennis]

I am librarian but I have never added a cover before. I would use the link and ask LK. If you need page numbers added, I can try to find those and add them.

***************************************************

Don't forget, this game is also running now if you are participating. Jojiwoji has 1 point already and md has 20 points on the first day!

June Hobbit Games Challenge

How many points can you achieve in June?

10 pts each - books 160-250 pgs

1 pt each - books 251-500 pgs

5 pts each - books 501 and over

*****************************************************

This is a less intimidating complicated game (if you are confused about the inter-team game) with just three rules. Participation occurs at the same time so any books read can count toward both games if you want them to. In this game it is possible for slower readers to get the same amount of points as the faster readers if they can read several smaller books, since I looked at our book lists and most of the faster readers' books are between 250-500 pages.


1. Books must be finished in June, but not necessarily started in June.
2. Books must fit into one of the 3 page count areas.
3. Have fun reading!

As always, participation is NOT mandatory. Please only participate if you want to and will have fun doing so.

Nothing behind enemy lines :D
And you also have R & M from author's name for spelling :D

Ezi you didn't tag this book for challenge

[Ezi]

Thanks Tea! I've tagged it now.
BTW, is pink still the color ahead of us? Does this count which is a buddy read for another group so I know it won't count as a BR here, but it could count for pink/magenta-ish cover right?

[❀Tea❀]

I would say yes for cover, but I'll let others (Mods) decide. If not, we can still go for spelling, and check enemy's shelfs :D

We are looking for pink/magenta covers till last Sunday in June. Then we'll see who's again in front and behind us and can look for those colors too. Pinks & magentas can still be used in July.
Of course, if we don't finish it sooner :D

Woo Hoo, so I got my 2 magenta/pink books for Colors ahead category (pending approval of my VA book), and cross that off my NBRC To-Read List. It just makes me feel so great to have direction. I feel like I just busted out of the Lisa Kay Insane asylum.
MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

So far both books are no on 'enemy front'. Are your buddy readers also part of this challenge? :D

If anyone wants to play for cupcakes, new puzzles are up

Captain Cupcake’s Hideout!

If you wonder what cupcakes mean, we can exchange them for books in 7% challenge.
It's cupcake per team for those puzzles you post in thread (that doesn't mean that more than one person can't solve them). Those solutions that are to be emailed, are cupcake per person.
