Thanks Hock, that's great. Only one more review to go now and we're done.

I will then note who is a review down as a result of Steven not showing up. As far as I can see it is Darrell, Hock, Benjamin and PMF, so they will be entitled to add their books to the one-for-one string.

Hi CA, thanks for this, but Steven didn't do his own reviews so there was in fact no need to do this - see earlier posts in this string. I guess you could leave it up until the group formally ends on Feb 16, just in case he rejoins us - but I don't think he's going to.

In any case, you've done all your reviews - thanks for taking part, and I hope we'll see you in a group again.

Steven has been blacklisted from this group for not completing a single review.
I can't enforce this, but I for one think it's unfair for him to benefit from the process and the honesty of his fellow authors. I recommend that those who have reviewed Steven delete their reviews.

I agree. There are only two such cases (C.A. and Loralee). It's up to them, but I think they should probably pull their reviews.

This group formally ends today, but we're still waiting on one review (other than Steven's), and it is nice to give people a few days to catch up. But then I guess we can close the group.

[Loralee, Admin]

I deleted my review already. I had reviewed it early on, but when I realized he hadn't shown up again, and hadn't reviewed his assigned people, I took it off.

[Mike]

OK, that's great - thanks Loralee.

I I think it is quite rare for someone to just disappear like that, and there may have been a reason. But it's a pity, as it left several people short-changed.

[H.A.]

I've finished my reviews. I would've have liked to have finished it sooner but I've been straddled with 40-50 hours a month of mandatory overtime since November! I'm taking a break from everything for awhile folks! Benjamin, your book was fun. I enjoyed it, so I kept my review short, sweet, and simple.

Got it - that's great H.A., and we can now close this group.

For those of you who are missing a review because Steven dropped out, Emma has I think now written to you to invite you to post your books on the 1-to-1 thread. This doesn't happen often and I would like to offer my sincere apologies.

Thank you everyone, and I look forward to seeing you in other groups.
