12/6 Update:

I've started making the server and have the basics down. Since Goodreads' notification/messaging system isn't that intuitive, I've just decided to include channels for TBRs and recommendations as well as group/buddy reading information. However, you don't have to use that, since Goodreads does a better job with finding and linking books.

The link will be made public on 12/18 :)

Also, I'll be messaging some people to add as moderators.

I'm not sure if this is allowed, but I saw there were a few people who were interested in making a Discord server for Buzzwordathon. It'd make the monthly discussions and buddy reads a lot easier/smoother.

So I was wondering if it was okay to for me make one, and if there was more interest in it?

(Also if you're interested in one, mention whether or not you would like to help manage it.)

:)

Kristin Katsuye (fristinkristin) | 1 comments I’m new to discord but I would love that because I can’t always get messages on here for some reason so discord would be easier to make it able for me to participate & keep up with things.

Discord is a free website/app used for messaging :)

Mairéad | 48 comments I'm definitely interested!!

Happy to help manage, but I haven't managed one before. Think it should be fine as not that big of a group

Chiara.L | 13 comments I love the idea, even if I'm not sure how it works.
I have just one question. The discussion here will be still available? I'm not sure I could participate actively in the discord conversation.

message 24: by Jennifer C. (new)

Jennifer C. | 2 comments Chiara - I would assume that it would replace the chat here, but you can be as active as you would normally be here, over in the Discord chat instead.

Ah ok, thank you.
I was talking about devices and possibilities to access Discord, but that is totally a "me thing".
I love the idea anyway and I'll try and be as active as I can manage.

Rebecca | 35 comments I'm down for a discord. Downloaded it especially for this :)


message 33: by [deleted user] (new)

Discord sounds great! It would definitely be easier to keep up to date with what's going on for me. I use Discord daily anyway.

For anyone worried about being able to access Discord, there is an app for phones and tablets, there is a desktop software for both windows and mac and even linux - and if you don't want to download the program, they have a web browser option!

Thanks so much. I was worried. I've never used it, even if I've heard of it.
