I checked the Readerboard thread recently, and noticed that it said my total GR Authors tickets were 10, while they were actually 12 as of post #819. Since then I claimed 2 more tickets, for a total of 14.Also, I just noticed that I had forgotten to mention the ebook verification post numbers in post #933, so I reposted it in post #936 with the correction. I hope it's okay that I didn't wait until it was pointed out to me. :)
