The Magic Number Challenge July 2020

[Carolyn]

Hey Sarah, I wouldn't mind switching from solo to a team. Would that be okay?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Hi Carolyn, that's fine ☺ Would it be alright if I popped you on the waiting list and then sorted out which team you'd be joining tomorrow? I'm trying to finish scores for June and I'm not sure I'm going to get everything done today x

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Sorry guys, but I'm throwing my toys out of the pram. I've had to go through 127 reviews today. It's taken me all day, since 8 am. It's now 8 pm, and I have no hope of getting the final scores for June's challenge up today. By the time I finish team scores, and individual scores etc, it's going to have taken all day tomorrow as well. Never mind that I'm behind on July scores now.

This is bad on July 1st, but if this happens on August 1st, I will have to delay the start of the MMC by 2 days to allow me to finish off this challenge. I cannot go through this number of reviews as well as start the MMC.

To be perfectly honest, I feel like crap, because I've been sat on my bum all day, reading reviews on my computer. I've hardly spoken to my son, and I am exhausted 😭 😭



So, because of this...


Anybody who posts MORE THAN 10 REVIEWS in the LAST 48 HOURS of this challenge will receive page points +/- buddy read points, but WILL NOT RECEIVE BONUS POINTS FOR ANY OF THESE BOOKS.

(view spoiler)[ This means that if you post 10 reviews, you will receive points as normal. If you post 11 reviews or more, you will only receive page points +/- buddy read points. You will not receive bonus points for any of your 11 or more books. (hide spoiler)]

Please make sure that if you have books to post you post them as early as possible. I really cannot cope with this number of reviews on the August 1st.

Thank you x

[Maddie]

Thank you Sarah for finally coming out and saying that! And I really hope that everyone listens.

I'm very sorry everyone for disappearing and being a very bad mod, but work has been kicking my a** at the moment and I've been too exhausted to even turn on my computer. I'll try and be on tonight to do a few scores, and on Sunday, but during the week it's just too tough. Please be nice to Sarah and Book <3 They're really going all out here.

Maddie :)

Hi Sarah, can I join the waiting list for a team please?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Sure ☺ I'm just going to finish off June's challenge, and then I'm going to put those people who are waiting into teams ☺

[Ashleigh]

Thank you :)

[Carolyn]

Question: does Paper Girls by Brian K. Vaughan count as a graphic novel or a comic? If it's a comic, I can't use it, right?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

We usually count it as a graphic novel ☺

[Carolyn]

Yay! Thank you.

*SimplyAli, I haven't been able to send you a message to let you know which team you're in because Goodreads is only letting me send messages to people on my friends list because I've sent too many x

Edit - I've managed to message you now! Yay!
