Jamie | 12271 comments Hi everyone!


message 3: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments So I made an SS with Board to easily see our lines and spots for bonuses. As on option for use. But no pressure. :)

María | 2037 comments Hi! Checking in...


message 11: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments Ok, different SS. A couple other teams are using it and it is much easier to use and even calculates each books pts. I couldn't get the totals to work but if someone else knows how to do that great.

Jamie | 12271 comments Although, for some reason the points totals aren't always accurate with modifiers/brs added in... so it might be off be a point and manually adjusted sometimes ( it tried to give me 23 pts for Trickster's choice for example).


message 13: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments So if we want to use either of these SS let me know. I linked both at the top. Figure whichever is preferred is the one we can use.


message 14: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments @Diedra I put the title in for yours but wasn't 100% it was the Libba Bray one or if it was a BR, etc.


message 15: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments So quiet here... :(
Hopefully our last 2 members check in soon and planning starts.

Yes! Things have been too quiet lately! :)

They have! I hate being six hours ahead. I miss most of the action!


message 19: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments I would hate being on a time so separate. Although at least we do have a decent mix of time zoned people in this group as a whole. And I am not the chattiest but my February group has been super quiet and now this. And I have to avoid twitter and FB lately since that is just political talk and I don't wanna hear any of that so I am limited in my socialization.


message 20: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments It can be hard at times but it has also worked out decently since I don't get on till the evening now.

I miss a lot of the early morning action though. :(

We do! That's one of the things I love most about this group.

I am always open to chat as you know. lol. I'm typically on from about 4pm-4am spain time so that's about 9 hours ahead of you?


message 21: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments So it's 2 am there? You are keeping crazy hours! lol. Its okay mine are always all over the place.

And yeah mornings are always the busiest as UK is in evening mode and US is just getting up.


message 22: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Yes. 2 am.

I'm much more of a night owl. lol. Weirdly I am basically keeping the same hours I do at home just 6 hours ahead.

Yup. I always get on to tons of notifications.


message 23: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments Haha I am a night owl too but not that much. But that is likely due to work lol.


message 24: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments It’s 4 AM here trying to decide which book to start first


message 25: by Jammin Jenny (last edited Mar 01, 2020 12:56AM) (new)

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments Hi guys! Sorry I'm late checking in!

What do we need to do? Sorry I've been sick all week and am just catching up with Goodreads stuff.


message 26: by Jammin Jenny (last edited Mar 01, 2020 01:00AM) (new)

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments I like the second SS best...I'll add my info there.

ETA: I can't update, but I will be reading this book tomorrow (and possibly two more):

Savage Run, first published in 2002


message 27: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments Did I not open for edits? Sorry. Will fix in the morning. Glad you made it!


message 28: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I’m thinking of starting The Toll by Neal Shusterman first to knock one of the most recent years off early then I may move to the harder ones


message 29: by Jammin Jenny (new)

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments Did this challenge actually start on Feb 29? If so, I read 3 books already, and I think I made a review for each one.


message 30: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments No it started on the 1st


message 31: by Jammin Jenny (new)

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments Thanks! Well, we'll hopefully get to count my book.


message 32: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I added my information to the first spreadsheet for now and will transfer to the second once it’s opened for edits


message 33: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments I think I got it open for edits from my phone. Can’t fall asleep so figure I’d try. If it doesn’t work I’ll get in first thing when I get up. Meanwhile wish me luck on a few hours of sleep lol. I need it.


message 34: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments Lol yes Jamie I agree about the sleep I’m about to try to get another nap in


message 35: by Abby (new)

Abby | 5404 comments Which spreadsheet are we using?


message 36: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments The second one


message 37: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) | 692 comments OMG...I LOVE THE NEW SPREADSHEET!! What does MG stand for??


message 38: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments Middle grade


message 39: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments Yeah I liked the new one so much better too. It’s why after seeing a few others using it I made a copy and edited it for us.


message 40: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) | 692 comments I actually really like the new one because I’m terrible with spreadsheets. I’ve been in a few team challenges in other groups and for me spreadsheets have always been hard to use and this one seems pretty simple (and I love the colour scheme).


message 41: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Jamie I saw earlier you were interested in a formula for your sheet. I don't know if I found exactly what you are looking for but try this site

https://smallbusiness.chron.com/forwa...

I tried the second one on a blank SS and it worked.

The other SS's have a way of totaling each person indivually and that is what I couldn't figure out. It counted our books but not pts for whatever reason gave error message, and I don't know how that was done. Sum totals to another sheet I can sorta do. But I will actually bookmark that link. Thanks!


message 43: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (last edited Mar 01, 2020 08:52AM) (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I think you kind of can with that formula. I haven't tinkered with it a lot.

NP. ^_^


message 44: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) | 692 comments I’ve managed to get the N/A to disappear, but for some reason whenever I’ve tried it out on the sheet it gives me 16 instead of 7 points.


message 45: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) | 692 comments I’ve figured out why it’s giving me 16, I just have to find a way to fix it :(


message 46: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments What seems to be the problem? I'm not a spreadsheet expert but I might be able to help. ^_^


message 47: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) | 692 comments Do you want to hop on the sheet and we can figure out what happened??


message 48: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Sure.

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Using Defined Names In Conditional Formatting

As noted above, custom functions in Conditional Formatting cannot reference cells in other worksheets in the same workbook, and cannot reference cells in other workbooks. However, you can get around this limitation by using defined names. Create a defined name which refers to the list in the other workbook or worksheet, and then use that name in your custom function.

For example, suppose you want to make cell A1 on Sheet1 red if that cell's entry is not found on a list on Sheet2, cells B1:B10. If you tried to use the formula =COUNTIF(Sheet2!$B$1:$B$10,A1)=0 as your formula, you would receive an error message from Conditional Formatting. To get around this error, create a defined name called MyList which refers to the range =Sheet2!$B$1:$B$10 and use the name in your custom formula:

=COUNTIF(MyList,A1)=0
