Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) I believe we are finished with the second part of the mini challenge? We just need 10 more cards, yay!


message 561: by Nichole (new)

Nichole | 620 comments March Announcement in a nutshell!

NEW - Total # of Hands increased to 14

NEW - colored Uno cards.
So, for example, rather than receiving card "7", you may see it says " 7 Green". This means you need to find a book that not only matches the criteria for 7, but also has a colour cover of green (the cover should be more than 50% green - use this colour extrator tool to determine colours if you are unsure).

*** TinyEye Labs***

I'm sure those of you who played Wobble are familiar with this :)

As these are very special cards they are worth 30 points. You will find 1 of these cards in hands 2,4,6,8,10,12 and and 2 more in your last hand.

*Remember, we can not bank books. We are almost finished with our hands but we can continue to earn points for the February Mini Challenge (I should probably verify this but I think it's right?).

I thought we still had to take care of 9 in hand 13? Or is that one already done?


message 563: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Yes, I'm confused, I thought we had 10 cards left? Did I dream this?


message 564: by Aricia (new)

Aricia (autumnaleaves) | 104 comments Oh no- Abbie said numbered cards.


message 565: by Nichole (new)

Nichole | 620 comments We still have a 2 (Abbie's book), 9, Skip and some Wilds :)


message 566: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) So when I post the book I'm about to finish I only need to tell you if it works for nine? Obviously it will work for wild?


message 567: by Nichole (new)

Nichole | 620 comments Nine or a Skip :)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Done :-) weird it usually automatically just dates it, not sure why it didn't?


message 583: by Nichole (new)

Nichole | 620 comments It's the new reread feature messing it up. I keep having to go back and add them too! It's also marking books as read 2 or 3 times that have NOT been rereads.

Carrie  (icanhasbooks) | 143 comments So do we get points for every time we read a book that they have/feb? Like if we all happen to read the same one? Or is it per title. Like we won't get points for same book twice? Sorry if these is reading poorly.

We get points for each book, so we can read the same book if we want :)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Nicely done team! I'm reading a book right now for the mini challenge... I don't need to report my other books correct?


message 596: by Nichole (new)

Nichole | 620 comments Way to go Team!!

Yes, Berit, I believe that is correct :) I've never played though so... but I'm almost positive we only report the Mini challenge books now. Speaking of, I just finished a short one and will finish another short one tomorrow!

Nichole | 620 comments Also, I will be out of town this weekend, coming back on Monday afternoon. I'll get the Spreadsheet updated before I leave and then again when I get back. I'm not sure if I'll be able to check in or not over the weekend.


** Has anyone looked at the March cards yet? I haven't checked my books yet for the Color cards. I'm sure we'll do fine though :)
