Well done, Petrik!

[Petrik]

Thank you Aristea!

And well done everyone! Wow Diana for massive point on Oathbringer xD

[Diana Stormblessed]

The points are totally why I reread it only 3 months after my first read. Yeah.... points.... not because I'm obsessed or anything...

Yeah. And you didn't post about a Vin cosplay. There's no Sanderson worship here. No no no.

You're just very dedicated to the team. ;)

More progress! I love flying!

Vin cosplay with a matching Elend. That part is important. I got my bibliophobic, serious husband to not only read ALL 1,500,454,500,599,438* pages of the cosmere, but to also DRESS UP IN COSTUME. This is so big. All for the <3 of Sanderson :-)

*number of pages might be *slightly* exaggerated

I am loving it! I needed some good books in audio format, so I am happy that I now have 6 more books lined up. :)

You're right, I read it while on the plane and I ended up not adding any comments;..."

I feel like I was really satisfied with the ending of book 6 as a series ended, so was surprised when I continued 10 years later with this book. Because it had been so long since I'd read the others, this one felt fresh to me. I doubt I'd be saying that had I read the series along with you all so recently. I really appreciated Tiger in this book because his lack of obnoxious ego makes him a lot of fun to read about.

So... I got really annoyed that the spreadsheet wouldn't load for me. I haven't entered anything in a while. Now I have 10 books to add. XD doing it today lol.

I did a few manipulations a few days ago to lighten a bit the spreadsheet. But since your sheet is locked, I couldn't do anything :(
You could try to delete unused rows/columns (rows 300-1000 for example). That should help, I think.

That sounds a lot like sandbagging. ;)

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

Lol if the foe shits. ;)

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

Thanks Virginie I'll give that a try once I get back to my desktop. :)

[Veronica]

I'm adding around ten books tonight too.

[Virginie]

Woohoo! POINTS! :p

[Miche]

Great job, team! :D

[Elizabeth]

So guys the spread sheet is showing 0 for us?

[Miche]

The formulas are broken. I am sure Iain or Rob will fix them when they see it.

[Diana Stormblessed]

I was going to fix it but guess that sheet is locked. I don't have access. Womp womp.

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

I didn't do it.

[Miche]

Niki Hawkes wrote: "I didn't do it."

lol, Niki.

Did you add your books? You will pass me soon. ;)

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

I did. The glitch was interestingly timed... it wasn't me.

I don't know, you're reading at a good clip now that you're over your slump. ;)

One of the worst book I've ever read in my life. I can't believe I actually finished it. And there are still two more in the series before I can jump to the last trilogy. God help me

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

Wow is me!! I was actually a little worried about this one for you. Bummer. :/

[Petrik]

I'm so bummed about it! The only thing in this book that worked for me was the last 2 chapters, it was that bad. I hope the next two will be better... im close to the last trilogy now after all.

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

Hopefully the next ones will improve for you. They kind of all blend together in my mind but I definitely remember a turning point somewhere around the third book.

[Silvana]

I just added the read date for my last book and my points is now 101 (in my sheet) but why on the team score sheet it is still 94? Anyone having the same problem?

[Virginie]

I mentioned a few times here my new internship. I received a week ago my first paycheck (for 5 days in February haha) and decided to treat myself. The first part was a nice italian restaurant. Second part of my reward arrived today:



Bonus: my little monster

Pic doesn't work :-(

Of course it doesn't... :'(

EDIT: Woohoo!

Yay! :-)

The Team Scoreboard for our team (and only ours --") is acting up. Not updating, the sum is null, etc.
If you want to update manually, you have to select the cell holding the SORT formula (G3), add a space after the formula and Enter.

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

Silvana, that seems to happen to me all the time. I think there's so many formulas on that one workbook that it takes FOREVER to update sometimes when people are doing a lot of stuff. There has also been a huge formula issue that the geek squad is working on to fix. As long as your sheet is correct we should be ok. :)

After my previous comment, I feel I'm a part of the "geek squad" xD

[Anni]

And good choice for the reward, of course! 😁

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

I meant the term lovingly haha.

[Virginie]

[Veronica]

Just did a batch update, entered 19 books and 88.8 points.

[Miche]

Great job, Petrik and Veronica!

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

Wow!!!! Wtg!! I think you doubled my entire jam/feb efforts haha.

City of Dragons any better for you?

Fortunately yes. It's good, 3.5 stars. Even though it's like a filler but I feel like this one have so much more purpose than that second teenager hormone book. xD I still enjoyed it! I hope the last one can be better
