Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) | 7439 comments 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.

message 7: by ~Melissa~ (new)

~Melissa~ | 5253 comments Yeah teams!! Hi all! Can't wait to start.

Due to stuff in RL - I can't be captain.

Kayla (kaylaschwae) | 491 comments Name ideas! Just ideas! Lol

Twice the Fun
Double your Pleasure
Terrific Twosome
Two to Tango


message 10: by Kayla (new)

Kayla (kaylaschwae) | 491 comments Ohh I like Twice the fun:)


message 11: by ❀Tea❀ (new)

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 527 comments Hi everyone! Glad to be here again. :D

No idea about the names, but from what you said I like Page turners and Twice the Fun. Whatever we choose is fine with me.

I'd prefer not being captain since roll time is about 6 or 7am over here and I'm not up yet. And I'll have to skip some weeks because I'll be traveling (I'll get us a backup for that time).

Steph Davis | 417 comments Hi guys I can't wait for this to start, it definitely helps me with my tbr


message 13: by Steph (new)

Steph Davis | 417 comments I like two to tango and twice the fun.

message 14: by Sue (new)

Sue Morris | 1095 comments I also like Twice the fun


message 15: by Kayla (new)

Kayla (kaylaschwae) | 491 comments Have any of you done this before? I haven't and I don't mind being captain but I have no idea what I'm doing in the first place! Lol

It sounds like twice as fun is our name does that work for everyone?

I love in Iowa which is central time so I can roll sometime in there! I'm up at night feedin my daughter anyway! :)


message 16: by Sue (new)

Sue Morris | 1095 comments Kayla do you know how to link posts? The best thing to do is go to archives of this challenge(lower part of main page) and see what other captains have done

If you want I can be captain and you help out when I can't do it?

Basically, captain rolls dice on Friday. If all reviews from previous week are posted, you can roll at midnight, if not, you have to wait until all reviews are posted.
Beside rolling, captain needs to keep track of reviews for each roll, and 'report' them each Friday with new roll. You link all reviews in one post and then link that post in Post-your-post thread. :D


message 18: by Kayla (new)

Kayla (kaylaschwae) | 491 comments Sounds pretty simple:) I'm currently not home but when I get home I'll do some research:)

I'm a stay at home mom so I'm sure I have the most time! :) I don't mind being captain:) plus I love organizing things like this:)


message 19: by Steph (new)

Steph Davis | 417 comments I'm up every night past midnight and do most of my reading at night so if the roll isn't posted I could do it, unless you think it may get confusing


message 20: by Jenne (new)

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) | 7439 comments Teams are more than welcome to designate someone to roll if they're captain or not. My last SSS team we had 3 of us that would, we just worked it out before the roll.


message 21: by Kayla (new)

Kayla (kaylaschwae) | 491 comments Steph that works great!!! If you don't have it posted by the time I get up to feed my daughter then I can do it:)

What time zone are you in steph?

Steph - are you my old partner on: 1 4 all?? Fabulous roller if yes :) *waves*
We had a different player as Captain(Shy) who did the posting but more often than not Steph rolled for us..........


message 24: by Steph (new)

Steph Davis | 417 comments Oh yes! Hi lol!
I just get so excited about the roll I get fidgety lol I have no patience.

I live in Chicago so central time zone :)


message 25: by Kayla (new)

Kayla (kaylaschwae) | 491 comments Awesome!!! Steph do you mind doing the rolls?


message 26: by Steph (new)

Steph Davis | 417 comments I would love to!


message 27: by Kayla (new)

Kayla (kaylaschwae) | 491 comments Sounds fantastic:) if you can't roll for some reason let me know and I'll roll!! Thank you so much:)

I absolutely will, and its my pleasure!


message 29: by ~Melissa~ (new)

~Melissa~ | 5253 comments I usually check for the roll when I get up for work - I'm just not a night owl. So if all reviews in but no roll I can roll and post our spot. I'm up between 5:30-6 am.


message 30: by ~Melissa~ (new)

~Melissa~ | 5253 comments Hi all -wow we're a quiet bunch,lol I just finished up an awesome buddy read - loved it Big Little Lies my first by this author. Needed to get that off my shelf in anticipation of tomorrow :D

Looking forward to the first roll!!!

It is awesome - I loved it. So glad I had it in ebook form - I could read on my phone whenever I had a few minutes free. I have The Husband's Secret but in book form. I usually only read these at home esp since it's hard cover....but I've heard good things about this one too.
