Our Next TEAM Challenge is...........? Showing 501-550 of 1,584

[Kristina Simon]

I missed the HP themed TT, too. I'd play quidditch! (Although, I don't really know what I'm getting myself into.......)

[Donna]

Hope you mods are ready to play Quidditch. Technically if 4 of the mods commit to playing, then we would have 20 players plus 2 maybes....


The two maybes are conditional.
-one is a teacher so depends on when the game is played
-the other says her reading is down and would need a position for a slower reader.

edit: make that 3 mods - just got another yes ; )

[Cat]

OK, I'll dig out my notes and square it off tomorrow

[Donna]

YES!!!!

[Alysa]

*rubs hands together in glee*

My reading is down too but I guess that means my current version of "challenge mode" would be like most people's normal reading. ;D

[Alysa]

Will the winners get to keep the Golden Snitch?!?

Ok, no assumptions and the number of players seems to be no issue. I'm glad to know that we are all mad here.

[Judy]

I'd be in for quidditch - got absolutely nothing to do these days anyway 😂

[Sammy]

Woohoo! We don't need to read insane page number books for quidditch, right? I've been keeping a couple in reserve, but I'm enjoying reading more than one book a week at the moment, lol.

I read some bigger books last time but the majority were between 100 -150 pages.

[Tammie]

If you need another player, I’ll play...I’m seeing this is likely one weekend a month and I’m good with that...I can’t have this taking over my life like the last time...it was fun, but a bit too much at once...a weekend is a good level I think. I’d love for specific dates to be decided...that would be awesome...I was a beater last time...would consider being a chaser this round.

[Cat]

right, crazy people, take your quidditch nonsense over here

It's rough and ready right now, but hopefully will help you sort out teams and such like.

Give me a shout if you need a hand. Though I will most certainly not be playing or even narrating this again.

[Jammin Jenny]

Oh E, we'll miss your narration very much!!

Sorry, I take this back. Don't think I can commit to this reading challenge. Have fun, everyone! :)

Might depending on timings

Aww, don't say that, you'll tempt me to join haha and I'm very happy with having reduced screen time over the weekend :-p

[Tammie]

I've decided not to play as well...have fun!

Lemme share a little secret...

While plotting a HP themed Tower Teams, one little mod had to play driver to a kid's birthday party, whilst sick as a dog, and having to stay isolated because she had a conjunctivitis threatening to hit both eyes... plus no voice, drugged to the gilds and felling pretty miserable. (It was in a complicated part of town and the other adult, didn't drive that much back then).

Anyway, in this state, what does she decide to do? let's open a blank notebook and start drafting quidditch roles & how to apply reading to them

So yeah, if quidditch looks so awesomely insane, it's because its origin was also a crazy and insane one.

Well, we love our slightly insane game and the slightly insane mod that came up with it!

Not to mention the a little more insane mod that took over the game when the crazy one retired.

*looks at Cat with angelic eyes*

[Chava]

@Sonia & @Donna, and we will be forever grateful for your sacrifices. (Best TT EVER!!!)

[Donna]

Sacrifices? The only thing I remember sacrificing was sleep but it was worth it! LOL

[Chava]

LOL! It was my favourite so far

[Donna]

mine too!

There are so many posts can someone link the one that connects to the challenge page?

[Sophie, The other one]

No team challenge has yet been announced so there's not a link at the moment

Awesome thanks I swear I saw one at some point lol

[Donna]

Well technically there was a link to the Quidditch game. Is that what you were looking for?

[Lexi]

Thank you and the page number rules are great

yassssssssssssssssssss

[Eldarwen]

Already clamouring for TT? Wheel isn't even over yet :-p

[Dev]

i have been in a slump since last fall basically and i am finally feeling like i am starting to come out of it in this last round of wheel. bring on the tower teams! lol

[Sammy]

A short break in between challenges, pretty please! lol.

My house is a tip and my family have forgotten what I look like without headphones on :D

[Christina]

But I don't want wheel to end, so I already want a new team challenge to start to keep my interest going!! Lol

[Eldarwen]

Hehehe - understandable.

There will be something, do not fear!

But I am not going to divulge any details ;-)

[Mary X]

I always say I want a break but then a week after a team challenge ends, I'm trolling goodreads groups like an addict looking for a fix.

[Dev]

yeah i definitely need some time to read some books under 100 pages without feeling guilty before towers would start lol

[Alysa]

Haha, ditto both Mary and Devann.

[Sonia]

Since I kinda overdid myself, I'm with Sammy... a little break would be good.

[Jessi]

I think I need at least a month or two of a break. I think I’ve done one team challenge after the other since Towers and I want to read things without worrying about letters and cover colors lol

[☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎]

I have to agree a break would be nice but..... Hahaha

[Plethora]

You're so funny... Ask her how many challenges she is in.... (meanwhile I PLEAD THE FIFTH!)

😝😂😁😉🤔

[Christina]

E - I'm not asking for any details, but do you wanna share for what time that something is planned? (;

[Sophie, The other one]

It should be ready to start in September. We're still working out exactly when.
