2. Re-get Bonus - Lets you remove one of your current bonuses and get a new one
3. Add a Bonus - Temporarily lets you add one bonus to your list
4. Title Twist - Rearrange the words in a title to fit into a title chain
5. Ignore an Article - Allows you to ignore A, An, or The in a title when linking it to a chain
6. Ignore the Caveat - Lets you ignore the requirement for the first book in a title chain
7. Rearrange Page Numbers - Allows you to rearrange the page numbers of one book
***These 3 bonuses are solely for use during Labors of Bookules and can not be used nor saved to be used for any other Wobble event.
***These 3 bonuses will be available at the start of the time slip - the original End of Labors
***Teams with leftover bonuses from previous Wobble events, may opt to use them to pick additional bonuses from the above list -- Milon boasts or Omni-Sack bonuses only, Bingo bonuses do NOT rollover/carry over.

The Words of the gods
Hera, realizing her 3 week timeframe was nearly over, and incensed that Bookules had managed to nearly complete the impossible task she had given him, enlisted the aid of Até, the goddess of mischief. Até went to Chronos, the God of time, and tricked him into believing he was performing a task at Zeus' request. Chronos caused a time slip in the library. Essentially sending Bookules back to the beginning of week 3, adding an additional week to Bookules task laid out by Hera. Bookules must spend an additional week compiling, collecting, and restoring the library.
Chronos, angered that he'd been tricked by Hera, went to Apollo. Apollo and Athena discovering Hera's treachery, while unable to reverse the time slip, were able to offer Bookules some small boons to ease his tasks during his additional week in the library. As he was in essence, redoing his final week of Labors, they offered him the same bonuses that he'd been offered for the original last week of his tasks.
