Cat & Company,

I noticed on the status spreadsheet Week 6 totals are populating in Week 7's column.

Bleurgh! Thanks for the heads up I shall go shake my fist at google & the spreadsheeting gods whilst I fix it! :)


Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) | 6535 comments Speaking of spreadsheet woes, it doesn't look like our completion bonus for completing first word is working for Purple on our spreadsheet.

*shakes fists with you*

Week 7 words have been revealed!

Teams need to decide if they want to keep their word or want to do a Chipmunk ReSpin. Post in the ReSpin thread of the Captain's Group if you want a ReSpin. Deadline for ReSpin is Thursday, 5pm UK time.


click the clock for the countdown!

Oh dear..... the Chipmunks got very overexcited this week, and have broken the Wheel. Words and genres flew everywhere, so don't be surprised to see some strange words for this last week.

We've sent the Chipmunks to have a quiet lie down, and so there will be NO ReSpins possible this week.

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 5588 comments So the words on our spreadsheets for week 8 are good?

message 360: by Jenny (new)

Jenny | 8050 comments I found a book for Purple's last genre- Zombies that has one tag toward the end of the first page of tags. Was there something here about verifying that in case the tag moves to page two before the mods check it? Commune: Book One


message 361: by Laura (new)

Laura | 9707 comments Yes there was . You can get one of the other captains to verify it in the ask the captains thread.

Jenny | 8050 comments Thanks Laura!

Laura | 9707 comments No problem!

Maybe take a screenshot as proof just in case also


message 365: by Jenny (new)

Jenny | 8050 comments I emailed myself a screenshot.


Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) | 6535 comments I hope everyone had great fun! I really enjoyed this round of Wheel-a-thon. Until next time :)


☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 7238 comments This challenge was a lot of fun. I liked the word mixed in with a top shelf. It gave it an extra kick.
Thanks Mods for another fun challenge

Jenny | 8050 comments Thank you Cat, and all the mods for a very fun challenge!!!!!!!

Click the image to reveal all....

And, whilst you are all still on a high: is there anything that worked well, or really annoyed you? (hint: do not be mean about the Chipmunks! That gets you only pain and zombies, as Team Purple can vouch for!)
We like feedback that helps us improve for the next game!

Finally.... don't forget to watch this thread for teasers on our next team challenge, or to chat and chuck ideas at the Chipmunks - now is the perfect time to try and influence what comes next.....


Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) | 6535 comments It was great fun. No complaints or annoyances :)

I thought the fright week and respins, etc. were great fun! In hindsight, I wish we'd thought to use our other one during the first month, lol.

I think it should be three months next time though! ;)

Melindam | 8291 comments CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE WINNERS!


message 376: by Melindam (new)

Melindam | 8291 comments I am sorry that we were not daring enough to request at least one respin, even though we were considering it for a while. :)
But no complaints whatsoever. It was great fun, checking the spreadsheet on every Wednesday and so on. ;)

Where's Jenny when you need her?!

I hope the Chipmunks are not swimming in the fountains again....

I'm worried about the water link! We've enough trouble with the rising lava without tackling white water rapids or going over waterfalls in a barrel.....

I'd be more worried about the hydrochloric acid you get when the water and lava mix! lol.

Lisa - (Aussie Girl) | 6397 comments Thanks Chipmunks! As usual had a great time playing along with what your evil, oops, I mean imaginative minds spin up with.

Long live the Wheel. Until next time...
