The alternates:
Each number corresponds with the spot on the board.
For colors: The cover has to be at least 50%
For locations: As long as the book takes part at all in the given location .
For Shelves: Any book on the given shelf
For Publication Years: I'll be using how GR has it's publication date listed.
For Authors Names: The first, middle, or last name of the author is ok.
For Cover Items: Must have the given item on the cover
For Titles: Only the first word of the title. A, An, And, and The do not count.
So if the letter is B: The Best Day would be ok. Dear Betty would not be ok.

[Ora]

Hi! This is alos my first time doing it also.

[Shy The WidowMaker]

Hi Ora nice to meet you. Any suggestions on team names and captain?

[Amy ~Lover of Books~]

Hi! This is my second time doing this and I don't want to be captain. I'm not good with coming up with team names.

[Shy The WidowMaker]

I can be Captain unless someone else wants to do it.

[Shy The WidowMaker]

A few suggestions
Fourteen Fine Friends
Fourteen Fun Girls
Fourteen Fun Booklovers

[Ora]

Shy, if you want to be team captain great! I do have a lot of time on my hands right now if you are volunteering because no one else has shown an interest.

[Ora]

I live in North Carolina and use EST. I usually write reviews in the mornings to early afternoons.

[Ora]

I'm horrible with names. I looked the meaning of the number 14 and got two different ones, temperance with tarot cards and perfection with the bible.

[~Melissa~]

Hi teamies!! So excited for this to start again. I love this for getting some series books read each week! I live in Illinois - about an hour outside of the windy city. I work full time and have two teenagers that keep me busy. I'm not the best at coming up with names either but I'll try to think of something. One last thing - I'm in a team challenge in the MM group - I have to read 10 m-m books a month. I tend to not go into a lot of detail with these reviews as I'm aware the genre isn't everyone's cuppa but just thought I would forewarn you :)

Shy - thanks for offering to be captain :)

[Shy The WidowMaker]

Hi Melissa. Ora I am in NC also. I am cool with being captain no big deal.

[Steph]

Hi everyone! This is my first team challenge and I can't wait! Melissa I'm also from around Chicago :)

[Shy The WidowMaker]

Hi Steph nice to meet you.

Hi Steph - It's been such a lovely summer hasn't it. We joke around here that we're still waiting for it to come :)

[Hina]

Hi guys!

Another Chicagoan here as well! I work full time and pretty soon I will be in school full time as well. I have played before and captained before but between school work and my other challenges, I rather not be captain this time around, so I am all for Shy being captain.

[Jenne]

Geez 2 from NC & 3 from Chicago on 1 team, that's crazy lol!

[Shy The WidowMaker]

Hi Hina.

Jenne I know that is pretty cool that we managed that on one team.

Ok so we have determined I am Team Captain so now we need to work on team names. Anyone have any suggestions?

[Ora]

How about 1 4 all.

[Shy The WidowMaker]

I like that Ora.

[Hina]

That is a good one Ora!

[~Melissa~]

I like it - nice play on the numbers :)

[Shy The WidowMaker]

Ok so we only need Steph and Amy to weigh in on the name otherwise if yall are I'm cool with the name. Good job Ora.

[Steph]

I agree with the name I like it!

And today and yesterday have been so hot!

I'd prefer to not be captain since its my first time playing

Hasn't the weather taken a turn! Its been in the 80s and its so hot I feel like we are having a belated summer. I so loved July when the weather was in the 70s.

I have to agree - I'm usually the only one from Illinois :)

Kids just went back to school and now it decides to get hot. I think it followed us back from Florida - we went the last week of 'summer' before school started for the kids. We had never been in summer - kids were def not ready for the humidity. They are used to when we go off season and a hot day is 80's but much less humidity than in summer. I loved it but a few days were too hot - still not complaining.

[Shy The WidowMaker]

Ok since we are all in agreement I will post our team name and me as captain.

[Steph]

Can't wait to start!

[~Melissa~]

Steph wrote: "Can't wait to start!"

The waiting is always the hardest part,lol

[Shy The WidowMaker]

I know I can't wait to start also. I am up at 5:30 every morning to get the kiddies up and off and me to work by 7:30 so I will roll when I get up and post it from my phone then if I can if not then I will post when I get to work at 7:30. This is unless someone else has the chance to roll before then. Just let me know ladies if that's cool.

[Ora]

Sounds good to me. I try not to crawl out of bed before 7 unless I have to.

[Ezi, Factory Superintendent]

Really cute and creative Team name.

Hi to all the people i know

[Shy The WidowMaker]

What up Ezi. We have the awesome Ora to thank for the name.

Hi :)

Ezi wants us all to know that Spartacus is on Scify tonight LOL

[Shy The WidowMaker]

Oh one last thing Team let's make sure all reviews are in on Thursday instead of Friday's that way I can link them and be all set to roll for the next week.

[~Melissa~]

Yes - I have to agree - this is key and makes the captain's life much easier :)

I watched Spartacus when it was on Starz. I loved the series.

[Steph]

Sounds good about the reviews

[Hina]

fyi teammates, if you dont hear or read from me on the thread, I am around and reading it. I am trying to finish the src challenge by the end of the month and planning my other challenges books. But I just might not be posting a lot but definitely the review and the book I choose.

[Shy The WidowMaker]

Thanks ladies Im so excited to start this.

[Steph]

Since I'm up I'll just roll right now

[Steph]

If someone can repost this in a better format please cause I suck at making things look neat.

But I rolled a 10.
We can read the first in a series, the tenth in a series, a standalone, or a book published in 2002.

Also I'm just posting this here not in the captain's thread.

[Steph]

I'm going to read The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks. It's the first in a series.
