Team Magma Mavens

[Jessi]

I think we just pick words as a team. For instance the word SIX might be a good choice since X is worth 50 points.

[Teri]

Okay, so are we going with SIX then? and we need either the title, author first or last name or character first or last name that starts with each letter.?

[Teri]

I can do , if you want.
I will finish The Stupidest Angel this evening.

[Teri]

I finished The Stupidest Angel for task ii.
Let me know what you would like for me to work on next. I have to work a couple days this week, but I should be able to get a few in still. Hope everyone's books are going well!!

Will do

[Jessi]

I have added some words to group 3, let me know if those work for everyone.

Also, when we get to group 3 if you could make a completion post here with book name, date read, and letters it fits. This will help if we need to move books around!

[Jessi]

@Vickie
I have a book on KU audio that fits zone 2 task 1. I will have it done today so we can move your book to the S in SIX. That way we can move on to zone 3 asap.

[Sharon]

I am going to finish Sidelined today which will work for an S or an A. I'll wait to finish until I see that Jessi is done with the audio book for zone 2.

Yes we are!

I believe it ends either Sunday or Monday. Not sure if they have a countdown yet for the end/ beginning of round 2.

Also, Round 2 us up on the s/sheet so we all can take a look and see what we can do.

[Jessi]

Found the countdown! It's Here!

[Jessi]

Finished !

The Overdue Life of Amy Byler
Read: 8/21/19
Letters: O-Title, A-Amy Byler, D-Daniel

I fell asleep with only ten pages left in my other book lol. I was really really tired!!

[Teri]

I finished X
I’m at the dentist so I cannot update the spreadsheet right now

[Jessi]

Teri wrote: "I finished X

Yay! Don't worry about it, I updated for you!

[Jessi]

@Vickie- How are you doing?
@Sharon- What book is next for you?

[Teri]

I can do by Lauren Dane for the "D" in AUDIO, or do you want me to work on something else?

[Teri]

I have to read by Nicollette Pierce for another challenge, so that works for "N"
I will put it on the spreadsheet, feel free to move my stuff or I can always tackle another letter. Just let me know!

If you can do both of those that works for me! I'm going to read this and it will work for an "O"

[Teri]

Okay, looking to the next round, I have one for O and one for the NPR list, and one for the state in the title

[Teri]

I have a question, sorry, I know I am constantly asking things...so, for round 2, group 2, iv it says green item on cover and the author's name spells ACID, well, i was wondering about there is a lime however, there are two authors and it would need both authors to spell ACID. will that work, or it has to be one author?

[Sharon]

I'm listening to Never Have I Ever which so far will work for ABCDJLMNPT

I'm reading The Islanders which so far will work for ACIJLMPST

I think I will finish both tomorrow, so I can fill them in wherever is needed.

Don't worry about questions!! I would rather we ask and do it right than risk it being wrong! Let me see what I can find out because I don't know either!

[Jessi]

Ok, that question was asked for round one for lava in authors name and the answer is yes if GR lists both authors which yours does so we're good to use that book! Cat pointed out that if the authors have the same surname though you should only use their first names and the last name once.

Gotcha, thanks!

When you finish The Islanders put it on the "S" spot for SIX. I haven't heard from Vickie so I want to make sure that spot is covered so we get the points for that word. If she reads an "S" book then we can move it if needed.

Never have I ever can be an "N" spot. I can add another ON or IN to the ss if I need to

Just added both books, so we have two completed words now!

[Teri]

I finished When Rio Surrenders by Nicollette Pierce for N
I think I have time to squeeze and O in as well, The Other Book

[Teri]

How are we doing guys? About ready for round 2? I officially go back to work tomorrow :(
I'll be reading though! I think we did well this round!!
Was there anything else we needed for this round? I think we have a few hours, I might can rustle up something short if need be

Hello!! Sorry I've been MIA today. We lost power early this morning thanks to a lovely lightning storm and it took them forever to restore power to our neighborhood. So I've been reading today and I should finish my "O" book for the last letter and then I think we'll call it! I think we did great!! We may not have as many points as some teams but some of them read more and are in the higher number of books for Crater level soooo I think we did awesome!! I'm hoping some of those teams will move up to Magma lol and give some of the others a chance haha

[Teri]

Sorry about the power!

[Teri]

I'm going to start with Out in the Field for book that starts with O, and North of Montana for book that has a state in title. I am back to work now, so it will be a little slower going for me until I hit my groove again. Happy reading everyone!!

[Sharon]

This was a great first round! I'll check out the books I have and see what I can find to fit the tasks that are unclaimed.

[Jessi]

I'm going to start with Sense and Sensibility.
Sharon- claim what you want but leave at least one task open. All four of us have to read at least for one task.

Speaking of the four of us... Victorian Vickie hasn't checked in with us in over a week. I've sent her a DM yesterday but haven't heard back as of yet.

Since we need each team member to read at least one book I'm hesitant to wait on her for too long.

What are your thoughts?

[Cecily]

Hey, I got a message that you need a new team member?

[Jessi]

Yes we do!!

[Cecily]

Okay, I just need help figuring out what to do and Ill start looking for books

[Jessi]

There is a link to the spreadsheet, we are on round 2, if you can’t edit the spreadsheet then if you want DM me your email and I will send it to the mods to grant you access. We are on the countdown and we have to finish that before we move on to the safe zones. If you have any questions just ask and I will do my best to answer!!

[Teri]

Welcome to the team!!

[Teri]

I finished the O book yesterday and added it. Working on the state and the npr list book now

[Jessi]

I will finish Sense and Sensibility today. I would have finished it yesterday but I listen to audio books at work and our office closed because we another storm and it knocked out the power at the office. Sooo it’s already been a crazy week!

[Jessi]

Hey Sharon does not have a cover that is more than 50% black. On Tin Eye at the bottom uncheck the box that excludes the background color.

Ugh ok, thanks for letting me know. I'll see if I have something else that will work. I have to stop at the library today, so it will be easy to pick something else out.

[Sharon]

Welcome Cecily!
