Yes that's fine.


message 6804: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa Lane What are you trying to build.? The house doesn't require a book with a sheep in it..

I was wondering the same. I guess she got confused with the Horse quest instead :)


message 6806: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments Yeah it's from "If it Sounds like a Horse..."

Hmmm

We could have a barn next, then you could keep sheep. Then they could give wool, then that could be turned into stuff.

Oooo ideas... must delay til after white dragon though. Or... tie it in with white dragon...

Hmmmm....


message 6808: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa Lane Oh okay that makes sense.
Yes to the barn please!!


message 6809: by LaLine (new)

LaLine | 411 comments Yes, it's for the horse blanket. I was thinking about the house while looking at the horse blanket quest and I got them mixed up. I'm working on both at the same time. I really should just go to bed when I get that tired. :)

Looking forward to this month's update.

Rebecca (rebeccasg) | 3799 comments Does anyone have a book I can purchase to fulfill "The Rock" for a couple of gold? None of the books I'm working on (and slowly) fit and I want to help us reach our goal quickly since I know some people can't post for a while.

I should be able to get it out pretty close to the start of the month. It may be interlinked with the third part of the dragon event which is what I'm thinking now.

I have to get everything ready for the next phase of the team challenge then I'm free for RPG stuff.

I have one I already used for something else, but if you have a duplication potion, you can use it too! It's Night Shift They eat cheese straws.

Thanks. I'm not sure if I should restart from the beginning or look over at what I have and continue there but start from January. Hmm, what to do, what to do. I have so many books read. I'll have to take a look.

Reva (revans) | 2481 comments Remember if you start over you're entitled to the welcome basket goodies.

Rebecca (rebeccasg) | 3799 comments Yes I finally found someone eating cheese in my book!!

Morgan (faeriesfolly) | 522 comments RebeccaS wrote: "Yes I finally found someone eating cheese in my book!!"

lol. Listening to audiobooks at work for specific words/etc cracks up my coworkers, because I will just suddenly be like, "HA! CHEESE!" Most of them are used to it, but the two new girls think I've lost my marbles.

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments I love everyone trying to explain NRPG to other people. Such funny stories.

Me too!! I just hope it'll still be open until I'm done with it.
I was really disappointed with cheese eating character already. Guy was eating cheese in all books but one I read now *shakes head*


message 6829: by Morgan (new)

Morgan (faeriesfolly) | 522 comments I'm at 3 or 4 weeks for a lot of them, so I'm mostly cheering and hoping I find any of the others that I've only done once/twice again.


message 6830: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (rebeccasg) | 3799 comments I'm actually disappointed by how long it took to find a character eating cheese. Come on guys.... Cheese is amazing what are you doing?! Haha RPG makes me weird


message 6831: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments Hehehe :)


message 6832: by Morgan (new)

Morgan (faeriesfolly) | 522 comments Characters need to rethink their life choices basically.


message 6833: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments My daughters diet is probably at least 50% cheese at this point.


message 6834: by ❀Tea❀ (new)

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9625 comments If we become too desperately, I'll just go into the book and rewrite what they are eating. Nobody will know :P
I can't even count how many times characters were talking about ordering cheese pizza, but that would be it. No eating scene, just 'how about cheese pizza for dinner?'. Closest I came to cheese before this one (and so they are just making cheese so they better start eating some!) was 'there is some mac and cheese in fridge'.

Mary  (wimew) | 397 comments Would cheez its count? she's scarfing them down while stuck in traffic ( it is a cheese cracker after all) If so the new Darynda Jones book has it reading it now

what if they order a cheese pizza and literally say" they will eat this at home" but it's off the page while he ate it?

Mary  (wimew) | 397 comments you know, a few of my librarian's eyes light up with the new requests. some of them cower in fear They really love when I tell them it's from the same challenge


☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 7238 comments What welcome basket is that? And not sure if starting from last year would work. I just noticed there are expired task so maybe I'll start from this year.

No. Has to be real cheese :) has to be real eating. Embrace the ridiculous challenge!

I feel like I should write a whole story line about heroic librarians now...

Welcome Basket

Also, you can re-open expired quests with giftcards or timewalking potions. Or just re-purpose the books to a quest still open.


☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 7238 comments Oooo a basket!! Is there cheese in it? All this talk about cheese I need to get me some for a snack. LOL

Thanks Kelly.

I'm going to take a look at how far I've gotten and then work my way from there or just re-start it. I was having so much fun with this challenge and was so disappointed when RL got in the way but it couldn't be helped.


☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 7238 comments Oh by the way Kelly. I'm loving the hat :D


message 6843: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments We're glad to have you back! You're just in time to jump into the next phase of White Dragon. There's at least 2 more phases. Maybe 3.

Reva (revans) | 2481 comments Are we getting an update today and classifieds?


message 6845: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa Lane I thought Kelly said that she'd roll out the updates for July the same time as phase three of the Dragon, since that's probably all going to be done this Sunday after everyone gets their elemental battles.

Surely you could have come up with an equally weird word.

Can palace equate with castle?

I'll give you palace for castle if it's in the castle time period.

And. Muhahahahaha :)


message 6848: by Reva (new)

Reva (revans) | 2481 comments The palace was BUILT during the time of castles but the story is set during modern times. Would that qualify?
