Alex | 1018 comments If not mammals, I'm thinking smaller groups. Primates? Big cats?

Mammals..... yes but...... think in broader terms. Mammals can be extinct too. So we're looking bigger picture, not smaller one.

Ray (user2637) (hugpete) | 1521 comments Ocean animals?

I really hope there's no arachnids. Very much not a fan of those.

I'm searching for the post/portion of thread with peoples' fav animals. Anyone have a link? Kinda bummed it wasn't in this thread. I love woodland animals (foxes, hedgehogs, squirrels, etc), sloths, seahorses. DOGS! And many more. Very anti-spider. Not a fan of cats as I'm quite allergic.

Do you mean the cherry cordials? I have never really like those type of chocolate covered cherries, but I have had ACTUAL cherries covered in chocolate and those are delicious. While we are discussing chocolate, I must tell everyone my favorite so you can decide if you want to try it sometime. My all time favorite chocolate is (drumroll please) chocolate-covered gummy bears! Everyone I have told thinks that sounds like the weirdest idea, but it is really good! I'm not sure where everyone would find it in their hometown, but I found them here at a candy store in the mall. Let me know if you try it. I would love to know what you think!

I think there are chocolates that are just not worth eating. I'm a dark chocolate lover, so eating any weak milk chocolate is just pointless to me.

And another one! :) Woohoo!! Updating post 907! And no spiders, again, almost! :)

The recent animal questions was over in the Waiting for Wobble Read-a-Thon threads we had last weekend, Day 3.

message 925: by Karsyn (new)

Karsyn  (imzadi) Well done Karen Michele!!


message 926: by Karsyn (new)

Karsyn  (imzadi) And now you know!! :D Team Theme for Wobble is: ANIMALS!

The 6 mods each have a category ~

1 - Extinct
2 - Air
3 - Mythological
4 - Sea
5 - Land
6 - Endangered

4 of the 6 mods have chosen their own animals! The others were chosen for them. Hehehe!

Hopefully y'all will love your animal teams!!


message 927: by Karen Michele (new)

Karen Michele Burns (klibrary) Oh, yay! I love the categories ---- animals are the best!


message 928: by Cait S (new)

Cait S | 2825 comments Great categories. You can't go wrong there. I hope I get some vicious yet cuddly.

Like me.


message 929: by Jen (new)

Jen (reader44ever) | 2930 comments I love that the theme for team names is going to be Animals. Can't wait to find out what mine will be! :-)

But can I just say a huge THANK YOU to whoever it was who nixed the spider team/s? *shudder* THANKS!!! ;-)


message 930: by RachelvlehcaR (new)

RachelvlehcaR (charminggirl) | 4364 comments Spiders and Pests would be an awesome team. You can have a lot of fun with that.

Maybe if it were a purely opt in affair. I could do spiders but bees creep me out! ~shudder~


message 932: by Sassafrass (new)

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 1142 comments that sounds really cool! I can't wait to see which group I'll be in.

Think of the awesome nicknames you can give each other. Queen Bees, The Stingers, Zap Yas, Black Widows, and The Buzz, Killer Buzz... Yeah it's totally doable.


message 934: by [deleted user] (new)

I can't remember what I put down in regard to chatty teams. I would prefer to be on a chatty thing. I check goodreads a lot.

I'll be happy no matter which of the six classifications my team is.
1. Woolly Mammoth? Saber-tooth Tiger? I'm there!
2. Red-tailed Hawk? Griffin Vulture? Count me in!
3. Dragon? Cerberus? Please!
4. Great White Shark? Humpback Whale? Great!
5. Grizzly Bear? Grey Wolf? Yes!
6. Black Rhinoceros? Western Lowland Gorilla? Sign me up!

In other words, I'm just so happy that the theme is Animals!!! :-)

Nanci | 2567 comments You mods have great minds! Love animals...imaginary, real, or extinct, it's all good!


message 939: by Greta (new)

Greta | 1459 comments Fun idea for the animals theme!


message 940: by Tia (new)

Tia (fatgirlfatbooks) Oh, man - I'm really gunning for extinct animals! I'd love to be a Tasmanian tiger, an aurochs, or a quagga! As an animal lover, I am fine with any category, though.

Also, massive thanks to the mods for organizing 300+ people. That's no mean task and we all appreciate it!


message 941: by Diane Woods (new)

Diane Woods | 352 comments Agreed; the mods are doing a wonderful job and we appreciate it so much! Is there any type of waiting for Wobble challenge again? I had fun with that! Also, if any mods need any type of help for this challenge, I am happy to step up. Just let me know!


message 942: by Cait S (new)

Cait S | 2825 comments I'm dying to find out what team I'm on! I'm sure it's been asked a thousand times but I'm blanking on the answer-- Do we know when teams are being announced? I'm so excited to start getting to know my teammates :D


message 943: by Karsyn (new)

Karsyn  (imzadi) We don't have an exact day (yet) that we're giving out teams. Likely sometime next week.

Currently all teams are being put onto GR in the format y'all will eventually see, then once all/most that is done, Captains will start being informed.

No official "Waiting for Wobble" thing yet, but I have an idea for the weekend. :) Hopefully I'll be where I need to be with the behind the scenes stuff to do what I'm thinking about. :)

Love the team names some of you have said. Some are actually close. Of course I'm biased but MY category is the bestest! :D


message 944: by Cait S (new)

Cait S | 2825 comments Gotcha. Thanks, Karsyn!

Will Co-Captains be informed along with the Captains or just once all the teams are up?

Co as well. Gonna do Captains first, then Co, as Captains are all friends of the mod account (seasoned captains) and co-captains may not be so I may have to do some friending.
