Read-a-Thon #3 - Team Turtle's Battleship Strategy Topic

[Jennifer]

WTG Marta!

Can I be so bold as to use 2 of Emm's guesses and go with I7 and I9?

[Michelle]

You can and you just sunk our last ship! :D Way to go, Jennifer!

[Mimmi]

Yay, good job everyone! What do we do with our remaining guesses?

[SamZ]

Yay! Way to work together guys!

[Michelle]

There's no need to do anything with them. You guys win! :D Everyone who participated in getting the win will get a little prize that we'll reveal in a few days (preferably when I'm less of a zombie). The other teams were playing an additional little game for fun just because they finished before us. No doubt you guys would have finished sooner if I hadn't been under the weather. You have all done a fantastic job and should be super proud of the progress you've made this week. :D

All those pages! All those books! You guys rock!

[Mimmi]

Okay great. This was so much fun, I think we all did an awesome job! And thanks, Emm, for sticking with it even though you were sick :)

[J]

Woot! Congrats to Marta, Jennifer, and Emm for sinking the final ship.

[Melanie]

Well done to Marta and Jennifer for sinking that last ship. Woohoo.

I just played the 'Character Scramble' game too.

[Jennifer]

Well done everyone! I think we did awesome as a whole team. Now rest up Emm! You deserve a break after all the hard work you have put in.

[Michelle]

We've already worked up some new ideas for 2017 so I hope you guys will join up again! :D I can't say enough how awesome you guys did!

[Marta]

Woot! Cool! We sunk all the ships!
Thanks, Melanie, for helping me with the female author task.

Thanks, Emm, for your hard work! You did an amazing job! I hooe you will feel better soon.

This was so much fun, great job, everyone!

[Jennifer]

I love doing the team read a thon challenges so of course I will always participate. Count me every time, unless you do one while i'm in the hospital having my child, lol.

You're welcome Marta.

Rest up now and kick that cold.

Finished the ATY challenge!

Overall bit slow but I achieved my goals. It also seems that my reading slump is over, yay!

[Jennifer]

Wtg Marta. I myself will not be completing my ATY challenge this year. Too many long books and when I was working I didn't get time to read much.

[SamZ]

Emm I have finished all 7 of the games, I had a migraine yesterday so I couldn't log in and do them yesterday. :(

Awesome, Marta! I am working fast and furious to get my AtY finished. But I didn't start until September, so if I don't I won't be too mad :)

[Lois]

Finished the Character Scramble.

[Lois]

I'll guess D1.

[J]

There you go, Lois. Never let up until they surrender!

I participated in all of the games, for what its worth. Will there be a final tally of what we accomplished? (Not necessary but would be interesting).

[SamZ]

Finished the Wrap-Up!

[Melanie]

Just finished the wrap up. Now what am I going to do with myself. lol

Thanks! I am pleased.
Don't worry, as long as you got to read. I did replace some long books with shorter towards the end - makes it less stressful.

[SamZ]

My notifications center has been depressingly silent...I really enjoyed the team read-a-thon and "chatting" with everyone! Hope your season is full of good books - I know that I'm getting some new ones from Santa and family :)
