[Anna (Adventures with a Book Nerd)]

Scavenger Hunt: October - November: Creepy, Spooky, and Everything in Between

Ready to find some words? The scavenger hunt challenge is a game where you try to find as many words from the list as you can, and claim as many points as you can!

Duration: October - November
Number of Items: 20
Theme: Creepy, Spooky, and Everything in Between

Guidelines:
- You can read as many books as you like to find the items on the list.
- Find the words in the books, not from the cover.
- No need to extract the sentences from where you found the word.
- You can claim as many items as you find in one book
- You have to read the whole book for the items to be counted.
- Books must be finished/read on or after October 1st. Books may have been started before or after the start date.
- You can use the books you read for this challenge for other challenges.
- Words are worth one point, but the bonus words are worth three!
- Whoever has the most points at the end of the game is the champion of that game!

The game starts October 1st, and will end November 30th. In order to claim points, you will need to comment the book you read, the word you found, the date you finished the book, how many points the word was worth, and how many total points you have. You can start anytime after October 1st, and the sign ups are open. :)

Sorry I'm late guys! School ended up being my sole focus this weekend with no time to do anything else.

Alright everybody, it's time to find some words! Your challenge is to find the words on the list, and claim as many points as you can. When you find words, you will need to comment to claim your points. In your comment please include your number (see comment #1), the book(s) that you read, the word(s) that you found, the date you read the book, the rating you gave the book, the amount of points that you found, and the total amount of points that you have. Words only count once.

I'm a bit confused when it comes to your points.... You already claimed 18 points in a previous post, and you can't repeat words. Do you see an error that I'm not seeing?
