[Karen ♐]

I moved a couple of mine from the series # tab to the cards.

[K~Terror]

Yowza! First time on computer allllllllllll weekend.... So excited!

Will take a look at spreadsheet and see if I have books for the cards.

Just finished a series #7 book. :)

[K~Terror]

Added a book with a window and will start it after I finish my #8 series book just because it's shorter...

[Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥]

Hi ladies,

I'm just getting home. Went to the sucky Bears game with the family. Went to dinner and now I'm checking in.

You can move my books wherever you want them to. I'm super exhausted.

[Alexandria]

I have it has a spear on the cover and is #1 in a series in case somebody else wants the spear on the cover spot.

[K~Terror]

Oh ya! That's a good one Alex!

Thanks, Karen! :-)

[Eldarwen]

I slotted a few more books into the scavenger hunt on a temporary basis.

Four more words need to be found and those are also the hardest (at least two of them are).

Would someone be able to find a book for one of the following?

- turmeric
- ginger
- basil
- St. John's Wort

If it proves impossible to find books for the remaining words, we can always discard the card tomorrow.

CARD 4

You've never been one to try to outdo everyone else. No one really needs to go a whole 20,000 leagues under the sea when 5,000 is plenty. You're quite sure after traveling 5,000 leagues that there's really nothing more that would surprise you down there. You've seen all the fish, sunken ships, sharks and mermaids that you could ever care to see in the sea. Just make sure to take some pictures so you can have a few rounds bought for you at the Tavern after you've returned.
Travel 5,000 leagues and take pictures! Reserve a wonderful spot at the tavern for all your stories.
Leagues may be traveled by reading books. To determine the amount of leagues traveled by a single book, round down to the nearest 100 pages, then calculate 2 to the power of the number of hundreds of pages. (Hint: use the xy button on the calculator)
Examples: 512 page book -> 5 hundred pages -> 2^5 = 32 leagues
(If not all spots are needed, x out all columns)


Tasks:
•Book 1
•Book 2
•Book 3
•Book 4
•Book 5
•Book 6
•Book 7
•Book 8
•Book 9
•Book 10

Rewards:
•5 Experience
•1 Greater Heal Potion
•1 Shield Potion

[Snowtulip]

I just finished The Tutor for my window book, but I can't update on spreadsheet until late tonight, can someone please add it?

Thanks!

[K~Terror]

Gotcha covered, ST!

[K~Terror]

Ohhhh, pressure is on for me to finish the last one now for card 3!! LOL!

I should be done with my window book in about an hour or so..

Hehehe, finish, go go go!

I'm reading the last few pages now of the last book for card 5 :-)

[Eldarwen]

Ah that's great, ladies!

Hopefully we can find St. John's Wort somewhere, too!
The card is worth quite a lot so would be a shame not to manage to fill it.

[Ghost in the Stacks]

so for Leaves. we just need big books, right?

I guess V!Nerd can do IT now

[Ghost in the Stacks]

I'm...maybe my math is not up to par....but if we need 5,000 Leagues, it's going to take us forever...if 512 page book only equals 32 Leagues, then we would need to read about 157 books that are 500 pages????

[K~Terror]

Just finished window book!

Uhmm.... yea... although I'm all for the read-a-thon... you make a very compelling point for discarding! LOL!

[Ghost in the Stacks]

I have St.John's worst ladies, will start the Book once I finished my current one.

[K~Terror]

Yah-hooooo!!!

[Jessica]

I found St. John's Wort also in Eat, Pray, Love. I can remove it though.

[Eldarwen]

Oooh that's awesome, Abbie!! :-D

[Eldarwen]

Eldarwen wrote: "LaurLa,

could we get a page number please for Once Smitten, Twice Shy? The kindle edition you shelved doesn't give a page number. Amazon says 340 pages, is that correct?

Thanks! :-)"

Bumping this!!

Yeah we'd need a few 1k books to fill up the card quicker.

[Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥]

Yup I can do it, V.

A 1000 page book would be 10 hundred pages.

--> 2^10
--> 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
= 1024
