MOD CHAT!:D

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

It can be done in books or pages. Most people use pages but I think books are easier to use. It's when you keep track on how much you read in a time period most last a week. The person who wins is the person who has the most. There really fun to participate in.

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

I like the scavenger hunt it looks fun :)

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Ok that sounds great!

We'll do a scavenger hunt, a read-a-thon, and lets try to think of one or two more... We still have a bit of time.

[Rachel, The Overseer]

We could make a new banner that says something about the birthday to put up for a week.

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Sounds good! Does anyone know how to do that? XD I need to learn how to make banners...

So do you like our ideas so far? Read-a-thon and scavenger hunt?

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Um if you have pic collage that works

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Hey mods? If anyone's on a laptop or computer can they invite all members to vote on the themed book of the month poll? I've reached my daily limit to invite members to vote XD

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

I think that's good right? We can make this hunt two months?

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Yeah that sounds great and yeah two months:)

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Any other ideas? I'd like to do one or two more things...

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Yeah how about a spelling challenge like with party words?

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

That's a good idea!

How about

B
I
R
T
H
D
A
Y

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

That works. I wish the group was real so we could give a present and throw a party so much easier than thinking something out.

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

haha ikr? And it would be even more fun!! ;D

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Yeah way much more fun but it's not :(

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Ahh it's okay! This will still be fun :) And we have some good ideas!

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Yeah I know it would really cool to like expand the group further like Facebook or Skye or other things.

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Ooh I have another idea!

It will be a list of challenges bundled into one:

** some of these challenges can overlap, you don't need to do each challenge separately

-Read 365 Pages (365 Days)
-Read 12 Books (12 Months)
-List 52 Book Characters From The Books You're Reading For This Challenge (52 Weeks in a year)
-Read 7 Different Genres (Historical Fiction, Contemporary, Realistic Fiction, Paranormal, Fantasy, Dystopian, YA, etc...)

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

That is a really good idea :)

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Yay thanks! It just came to me ;)

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

ok thanks Hannah! I'm thinking maybe two or three giveaways? I can contribute eBooks. We'll organize the giveaways as we get closer to June 5th :)

I just set everything up here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...

Does it look okay?

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Hey does anyone know where the thread when for April '14 Best Reads? Why do threads keep disappearing!!?? XD

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

If someone is makes a thread they can delete it but I can't delete anything on my iPad they blocked it.

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Hannah wrote: "Hmm. I haven't messed with it. Is anyone but mods capable of deleting or moving on this group?"

I don't think so... It's weird.... Even before you all were mods I've lost at least 5 chat threads and some other things...

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Hey my internet is getting shut off Monday and I won't be on until July.

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Sorry about that tho Chey :/

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

No problem and yeah

Oh I'm sorry! You will be missed. :(

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Thanks I'm going to go crazy without something to do.

Use Netflix on TV for all your problems (and read of course.)

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Our internet and tv are connected.

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

It's fine!! :) I'll send out a group message today or tmrrw.

I'm considering adding Read-a-thons monthly or bimonthly. Any thoughts?

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Yeah it looked like a lot of people enjoyed it.

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Yeah I got tons of PMs asking if we were doing it again!! I leave for China on Monday and come back on the 5th of July so I'll plan out dates and stuff when I return. Sound good?

And I think we should have a few more start whenever challenges because a lot of people like that. I think we've got enough monthly challenges like PIFM, Copy Me, and Book Pools.

Perhaps a TBR challenge to help lower TBR piles? I HATE when my TBR list is bigger than my read list. It makes me sad :P

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Yeah I'd like one or two more do whenever challenges. :)

Yeah read-a-thons are fun!

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Hey mods? I'm leaving tmrrw morning for two weeks so can you please coordinate with each other to invite people to vote on the BOTM threads?

can each of you send invites please? Just make sure you don't all send invites for the same polls XD

-Send invites for the Series Continuation read from pages 1-10 (on the group members checklist on the pop up window for poll invites)

-Send invites for the Stand Alone read from pages 11-13

-Send invites for the Series read from pages 11-13

and once I make the poll today,

-Send invites for the Themed read from pages 1-10

Thanks mods! The problem is that you can only send 1,000 invites a day and 1,000 members is 10 pages so the people who didn't get the invites when I sent the invites (members over 1,000 are on pages 11-13).

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Ok sure can do.

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

thanks Chey!!!

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

No problem

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Here's the thread for the Summer Reads Themed Read:

https://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/1...

Please invite the members to vote on this!!

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Bye mods, see you in two weeks :)

If it's alright with you guys, I'm gonna change the BOTM for July

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Thanks for adding the stuff Kitty <3

And thanks for setting up the challenges Hannah <3

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

I'll be home July 5th :)

[Rachel , The Attentive One]

Hey lovelies? It seems that we're missing a BOTM. If We Were Liars won both Stand Alone and Beach Read polls, please pick the runner-up book of either the Stand Alone or the Beach Read poll to count as the fourth book.

[onceuponatimeareview, The Musical One]

Ok was swimming at my aunts
