[Arielle Rae]

I just read a book that's over 1000 pages long, but I can't log it because the entry thingy is only limited to three characters :(
What do I do?

[Jim]

You could log 500 twice.

Hi Arielle, thanks so much for reading! What book were you reading, and what did you think of it? I'm always looking for new book recommendations!

We have a limit set for 3 characters to try to prevent errors or false entries, and to encourage folks to keep logging their pages as they read. Jim's suggestion of logging 500 pages twice sounds like the best solution for now.

But we're happy to make changes! Readers, would you prefer for us to increase the number of pages you are allowed to enter at one time on the pages4progress.worlded.org website?

Thanks again! --Erin

Hi Arielle, thanks so much for..."

It was a reread of and again, it was absolutely amazing! Highly recommeded :D

It would be great if the characters could be increased to four, since there are a lot of omnibus and big books out there, and there are some people, like me, that prefer to log all the pages when we've fully finished reading the book :)
