October Challenge - Discussion Thread

[~Leslie~]

It's read-a-thon time! And since we all love books and reading challenges, this one is a mix between a regular Read-a-Thon and a Treasure Hunt, Nothing But Reading Challenges style.

◈ Duration: October 4th BST 4:00 PM to October 19th BST 4:00 PM

◈ Teams can choose from two types of events:
Event #1: Reading like a Banshee - a "read-as-much-as-you-can" event
Event #2: Halloween Book Hunt - a mini-challenge event

◈ Book advantage: Each event will have a book advantage awarding, as follows:
1st Place:10 BAP's
2nd Place:8 BAP's
3rd Place:6 BAP's
4th Place:4 BAP's
5th Place:2 BAP's
In case of a tie, the full amount of book points will be granted to the tied teams.

Each team participating in the read-a-thon will receive 5 BAP's - and yes, it's cummulative


◈ Events are not exclusive. That means teams can choose to do event #1, or event #2 or both.

Judy, you can tell us the goal anytime. No hurries. It's a personal goal and it doesn't have any impact on how the final points are calculated. The goal is purely for fun.

I'm in for both!

We haven't forgotten about the October challenges! We are working out some details and will post information soon.
