Incomplete Series Challenge Rules

[Niki Hawkes, I made it past GOTM... barely]

The Incomplete Series Challenge folder is a place where you can keep track of the series you're reading.

The ultimate goal of this challenge is to help you focus on progressing and completing your open series and encourage you to abandon the ones you're just not enjoying. Everyone is working towards a different self-induced goal, so just let us know what you'd like to achieve and we can cheer each other on! :)

Suggested Categories:
Incomplete
Up to date
Finished
Abandoned

If you need extra motivation, you can also tackle Niki's 5 for 1 Mini Challenge.

[Chris]

Great minds :)

[Liam]

Where did you find it haha? I even searched my name on the thread and it didn't come up. So weird. Thanks so much you guys!

[Chris]

I did have to go to Page 2 on the folder's thread list...

[Hailee]

You are welcome 😄. Did you go to page 2? Thats where I found it.

[Hailee]

Haha great minds at work again Chris

[Liam]

Oh gosh haha. Thanks guys, saved me a lot of hassle as I was about to make a new one ;].

I thought maybe I somehow deleted it last time I edited haha. So sorry Niki haha!

[Niki Hawkes, I made it past GOTM... barely]

Lol since I'm the archiving bot, anytime something goes missing I'm immediately under scrutiny. And usually that's because I actually did to the thing...

[Niki Hawkes, I made it past GOTM... barely]

And no worries lmao

Do novellas and short stories count for the incomplete series challenge?

[Bill]

It’s up to you. The whole point of this challenge is to track your incomplete series. I have novellas and graphic novels on mine.

[Niki Hawkes, I made it past GOTM... barely]

If I want to read those, I count them. If I don't want to read those, I pretend they don't exist haha.

[Timelord Iain, Tech Support]

Novellas and short stories (and prequels) are why I have an Almost Up-To-Date/Finished category in my tracker... I tend to be more focused on reading the main series, but these shorter stories are good for when you want another dose of the characters without just doing a re-read...

Would you mind if I alter mine to fit what I need?

[Niki Hawkes, I made it past GOTM... barely]

Not at all - creative license is part of the fun. :)

[Karishma]

We have to make our own threads right?

[Em Lost In Books]

yup.

[Niki Hawkes, I made it past GOTM... barely]

Yes, mostly so you can edit all the comments the way you want. :)

[Bea]

Do I have to set myself a specific goal for this challenge or can I just count every book that's part of one of my series for the team competition?
