Coralie I could have sworn I checked the page requirements for Flying with paper wings. I obviously didn't mark page requirements clearly enough on my task sheets. Now I am going to have to move books around which will make more work for you. Sorry!

Task 15.2 - SEAL Under Covers appears to be an ebook without a print edition.

If it has not yet been approved for length, you should ask for approval by posting in the ebook page verification thread: eBook verification thread.

If you claim a book in Completed Tasks that exists ONLY in ebook format, you must provide a reference to the ebook verification document when you post ex."Approved @ line #" or provide the post number in the ebook verification thread where it was approved ex. "Approved post #"

Please repost this task with the required information.

Task 20.7 - requires that you meet the requirements of the original 20 point task. Summer task 20.4 requires that you confirm that the author is new to you.

Also, Ugly Beautiful appears to be an ebook without a print edition.

If it has not yet been approved for length, you should ask for approval by posting in the ebook page verification thread: eBook verification thread.

If you claim a book in Completed Tasks that exists ONLY in ebook format, you must provide a reference to the ebook verification document when you post ex."Approved @ line #" or provide the post number in the ebook verification thread where it was approved ex. "Approved post #"

Hey I accidently mashed the lines all together but I did post that it was approved. I thought I had spaced them apart. Do I still need to repost it? I don't mind at all.

This was the line I posted: Nightime Scene: Approved post 81 Ebook approved post 2831

Sorry about that, bamaace83. I skimmed right over it. No, you don't need to repost. I've picked up the points and they'll show up in the next update.

Task 30.3, option 2 - In your post, you listed 22 February 2013 as the date you added Lady Sophia's Lover to your TBR list. However, your bookshelves indicate that the book was actually added on 22 February 2012, which would be over 1 year. Please let me know if that is incorrect.

No need to repost. I just wanted to make sure my assumption was correct. I figured it was a typo since your shelves said 2012. ;-)

You labeled the task in this post as 25.4. Elizabeth B's task: Celebration!. However, all the information matches task 30.3 Sheila/Kathy G's Task: Take it or "Leave" It. I've recorded this post as 30.3. If this is correct, there is no need to repost. However, you do need to check your total as you only added 25 points instead of 30 (for a total of 90 instead of your reported 85).

When reposting, please only repost problem tasks not all tasks in the post. If you need to move a book from one task to another, just state clearly that you'd like to remove the book for one task and add it to another. Then make sure you post all the required information for the new task. This makes record keeping much easier for us. Thanks!
