@Hannah
The anniversary is in Januar right? So I'll post the signups and stuff for both challenges in December :) (If we start sign ups now, people will probably simply forget they signed up lol)

Anyone here, who is willing to be a team captain for trouble and/or the other team challenge? :)

[Riya]

Definitely up for another board game with Jasmin!!!
And team challenges are really fun too, so that'd be a nice anniversary thing!!

[Riya]

Have fun Hannah!!!

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

I actually wanted to make a Choose Me This Halloween Edition T.T
Can I start sign ups now and end them halfway into the month? (Since Halloween is only at the end of October lol)

Haha I think that'd be really cool!!

[Riya]

I'll just set up the November challenges for my stuff.

[Meghan]

We haven'd done them in so long I forgot which I'm supposed to do! Sorry guys my memory is awful! :(

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

I'll post suggestions for November's BOTM&SOTM tomorrow and I'll also start a Choose Me This Halloween special :)

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

Are Suggestions for October closed now? who is doing the polls anyway? :)

[Rachel , The Confidant <3]

Oh my gosh guys I'm SO SORRY :( I've been sick with a sinus infection & strep throat for two weeks now. I've been sleeping, drinking water, and trying to do makeup work. I'm so sorry everyone, I completely forgot :(

[Gina's]

I'm currently on a project that provides wigs to women with cancer, so that is why I haven't been very active, but on min-octuber it will have a pause until next year, so I'll get back to Goodreads and stay active :)

Meanwhile I'll be reading books and sharing thoughts on them.

Have a great weekend everyone :)

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

I actually wanted to start the October Currently Reading Topics now.. (I had totally forgotten about those o.O)
But Hannah started them already, thank you! :)

I'll open suggestions for November later today and start the Choose Me This! Special Halloween Edition :)
Can we send a message out about this maybe? >.< Since probably no one will see it :( (It's almost time for the mid month message anway, right?)

[Meghan]

Ahhhh!! I don't know what book to pick this month!

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

I'm just sooo horrible this month +.+ always getting caught up with other stuff, I feel like I didn't read for ages! I'll really post the sign ups tomorrow though >.<

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

Forgot about that again -_-''
Well..
I wanted to tell everyone that I need to take a temporary leave anyway. Uni started last week and I'm sooooooo super busy (I'm feeling like I have to work a full time job + do a lot of homework), well it's my last winter semester, that's why I need to finish everything I still have left in winter :/ But I'll have a lot of time starting February/March, since I will start writing my bachelor thesis and won't have anything else to do.
But I suppose it would be better for me to take a break from being a mod until then. Sorry guys! :(
I'll try to help in December with the anniversary stuff, since I really wanted to do a new board game and group challenge for that one! (That was in December... right?)
I'm kind of scatterbrained lately =.=''

[Meghan]

Jasmin, Good luck with everything, I hope everything works out well for you! You will be missed!

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

Alright, I'll do some preparations for the anniversary on Christmas/New Year! (Does this sound alright?)
And thank you for wishing me good luck :) I'll miss you, too! Q_Q (And I'll be sooooo super happy when this is over XD)

[Riya]

Yeah good luck Jasmin!!! Can't wait for you to be back :D

[Riya]

Hey everyone I was just wondering if there's anything we need to get done for December? I notice we don't have any BOTM or SOTM polls up, so should I do those? And is there anything else we need? I think we should also try to get everything for January set up that we don't have to worry about it when everyone's on holiday around Christmas time and stuff!

[Rachel , The Confidant <3]

Since tomorrow is Dec. 1st should we just select which books are the books of the month since it's kind of late to do anything else?

[Riya]

Hannah wrote: "I agree Riya. Everyone has been so busy lately.. i want to try to give the group a make over before the new year but i havent had time. but yeah everyone can work on getting things set up :).. we n..."

I think that's a great idea!!!
And yeah I think that makes sense Rachel :)

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

Yay, it's a holiday! *__* :)
How are you guys doing? :) I'll finally have a lot of time starting February, since I'll only(lol) have exams in February and March and afterwards it's only my bachelor thesis *_*''
Yeah, I'm kinda REALLY happy now lol

[Hannah]

Hey guys! New year will be starting in just a few days. just wanting to make sure i still have all my Mods.. Is everyone still wanting to be a Mod as well? if not i understand just need to know whos going to be helping me with the group through 2015 :) i hope you all are still going to be around but if you are to busy for the job of mod and just want to be a normal member just let me know. if you decide to stop being a mod you are also welcome to come back anytime when you feel you want the job again! I like my team :)

[Meghan]

I would still love to be a MOD!! I apologize to everyone because I haven't been very active recently! I'm moving into my own apartment back up in the city where I went to college and where my boyfriend lives, so I have been getting everything in order and packing a ton!!

But I definitely still want to be a mod and will be more active come the new year!! :D <3 <3

[Hannah]

Great Meg, Glad to hear it! Been missing you around here, Hope you had a good Christmas and have a happy new year! looking forward to having everyone together again being active :).

hope the rest of your move goes smoothly!

[Meghan]

Awhh you're soooo sweet Hannah!! I have missed being on here so much, I'm very glad to be back! :D

You too and I did have a good Christmas, did you? :)

Thanks!! <3 I'll definitely keep you guys updated on my progress with moving! lol

[Hannah]

Im happy to hear you had a good one :D. Mine was quite fantastic if i do say so myself!but i do have to work new years eve and day so no fun stuff that night for me haha... And thanks :) how are you liking the new place?

[Meghan]

Awhhh I hate when you have to work on holidays! :( I had to work Christmas morning at my job but today is my second to last day at this hellish job so I'm pretty happy about that! :)

I'm actually not moved in yet! lol I move in January 10th completely but January 3rd I'm bringing a lot of my stuff up to the apartment. I have seen it though and it's wonderful! I'm living with one friend I have known for about three years so I'm very excited!!

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

@Meg Moves are always really exciting. I hope you'll like your new home! :)

For me the holiday was kinda normal.. food.. and more food.. and A LOT of food.. XD I feel like I'm always gaining a ton on Christmas! +.+

I'd still like to participate as a mod, if you still want me! I was so inactive, sorry!! :((
Didn't we want to do a lot of special stuff for the group's anniversary? Or did I miss this already? O.O;

BTW What does a Greeter do? XD

[Meghan]

Jasmin: Thank you! You're so sweet! I will definitely let you guys know how it is once I move in! :)

[Riya]

Hey guys!! Hope you're all having awesome holidays and I would totally love to keep being a mod too :)
I'll try to be more active as well!

[Hannah]

The anniversary is in January! and i really wanted to do something special.. but everyones been so busy we just havent discussed it much to come up with something.

oh and the Greeter is just to make sure all new members have been welcomed once they go introduce themselves because i for one usually forget to visit that thread and end up missing a lot of people. lol. but i think i took that off the list.

[Riya]

Ooo we should totally come up with some fun stuff for the anniversary! I'll try to think of something?

[Hannah]

Ok great! ill be thinking as well!! anything you think of is good and better than nothing so please feel free to suggest anything since we have such a small window of time lol.

[Hannah]

You know what I think would be a fun challenge!.. Mad libs. lol.. Could create our own mad lib and have people sign up and they have to pick a book that fits the catagory of the blanks.. you know how mad libs always have blanks with like Verb under it and such.. could find a way to do that where titles of books fit in :). just a thought. idk how it would turn out.

[Rachel , The Confidant <3]

Hi all! I'm slowly making my way back to GR. It's so hard with school and blogging to fit in GR time too, but I'm trying to make the effort. I think I can do the modly duties of Message and adding books. Sorry for my long absences, I'll try to be more active. I love this group, and I'd love to stay if you'll keep me ;)

[Jasmin, Cookie Monster :)]

I never heard of mad lips before o_o;

[Gina's]

sorry I didn't saw this

:) sure!

[Gina's]

Can we put the acrostic challenge on the archive section for a while?

[Rachel , The Confidant <3]

hey all, is the mod duty sheet from Dec. accurate?

[Meghan]

I feel like we should make a new mod duty sheet lol

[Riya]

I think the one on Message 29 of this thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... is accurate?

[Meghan]

I think that's right too Riya

[Riya]

Awesome! Also, Hannah never posted the February BOTM/SOTM suggestions, so I'm just gonna make the poll out of previous losers?
