Celia Buell (semi hiatus) (celiareadsbooks) | 3944 comments I'm good with whatever so 18 is fine

Aly (alyp_01) | 28947 comments Mod
Sweet! We'll start with 18 for this round


message 53: by Felicia (new)

Felicia | 15003 comments Awesome! You guys just need to make sure you read for 8 cases by end of day 1/7. :D


message 54: by Aly (new)

Aly (alyp_01) | 28947 comments Mod
Okay. As books are posted in the review thread, I can fill in the SS so we have cases ready to chooses


message 55: by Felicia (new)

Felicia | 15003 comments Just make sure whoever's book is being used for a case indicates that in their post on the review thread. All other books are posted regular as the rest of them are just page points. :)

Ashley (ashezbookz) | 52 comments My first 4 books of 2021 are:

I'll be gone in the dark (352 pgs) (audio)
The Color of Magic (228 pgs) (library ebook)
The Nemesis (320 pgs) (physical so takes longer)
Wicked Cravings (389 pgs) (kindle)

I didn't realize how many 2s are in my page counts !!!!!!! lol

Aly (alyp_01) | 28947 comments Mod
2's and 3's! That's a great list!

They haven't checked in yet but I've had someone with a large book number to add.

Checking in


message 64: by Celia (new)

Celia Buell (semi hiatus) (celiareadsbooks) | 3944 comments So I'm a little confused. What are we supposed to be looking for in our books for this one?


message 65: by Ashley (new)

Ashley (ashezbookz) | 52 comments Page numbers to get rid of cases...we chose case 18 so get rid of 8 other cases I believe ....any page count that has a 1 for case 1 (1 in any position)and so on ...I have lots of 2 and 3 so I'll read for 23 or 3 or 2 or whatever if that makes sense ? That's why I added page numbers when I posted my first few books of the year lol

Isabel | 1328 comments starting on Northhanger Abbey / Persuasion by Jane Austen with 480 pages

Aly (alyp_01) | 28947 comments Mod
We need to get rid of 8 cases by the 7th. Does anyone have any opinions on which numbers?
My first book can count for 3 6 or 8
Second book can count for 4 3 or 7


❀ Crystal ✿ -  PEACE ☮ LOVE ♥ BOOKS  (crystaldc18) | 4664 comments I have three books I just finished and reviewed. Not exactly sure how the whole number thing goes yet for this month but with all the different page counts, looks like I could cover any number between 1-8

Can the number appear anywhere in the page count?

yes

Aly (alyp_01) | 28947 comments Mod
Should we just go for the first 8 cases that we read for or do people care which number case we eliminate?


message 71: by Shan ~A~ (new)

Shan ~A~ | 715 comments I finished a book on 01/01/21 with 203 pgs. Should I post it or do we have particular cases that we want to try for?


message 72: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 3912 comments Okay here are the books I either finished or will soon

-Heartless 453 pages
-Possession 352 pages
-The Gilded ones 432 pages

Numbers between 1 and 9 will be easier to get than 10-25. If a book is 205 pages, we can't use it for 25 right? It has to be 250?

I think we could eliminate cases as we go along. I don't have a specific number I want to keep but perhaps someone else does? ^^


message 74: by Isabel (last edited Jan 02, 2021 11:49AM) (new)

Isabel | 1328 comments currently reading Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen with 251 pages (probably finishing it mid next week) it could go towards case 25?


message 75: by Aly (new)

Aly (alyp_01) | 28947 comments Mod
Okay, let's just post until we have 8 cases. Then reviews will only count for page points until the 8th.

So Kelly, do you want to claim 4 on your Heartless post?
I'll claim 3 and 7 for the two books I have finished

Aly (alyp_01) | 28947 comments Mod
Cindee, do you want to take Case 2 for Foxhole Court?


message 77: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 3912 comments Sure!


message 78: by BabyLunLun (new)

BabyLunLun | 1265 comments I have 2 books done

- 309 pages
- 154 pages

I don't really know how to pay this so please suggest me which case to fill in ?

I'd say case #9 for the first one and #15 for the second one


message 80: by Deanie (new)

Deanie Nelder | 1085 comments Are there any numbers we still need for this week? I just finished my reviews for Brotherhood in Death (388 pages) and Alpine for You (246), and I'm working on reviews/buddy reads for Beast of Rosemead (421) and Beauty of Rosemead (292). Or should I just count them for page points?


message 81: by Kelly (last edited Jan 03, 2021 06:17AM) (new)

Kelly | 3912 comments If Attack Salmon hasn't posted yet & Cindee doesn't edit her post in the review thread we still need to take out 3 cases. You could use Beast of Rosemead for #21, Brotherhood in Death for #8 and Alpine for you for #2 OR #6 :)


message 82: by Aly (new)

Aly (alyp_01) | 28947 comments Mod
Thanks Kelly! It's nice to knock out the double digit cases if we can since those are harder


message 83: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 3912 comments Yeah. Maybe Felicia thought about that and put the big bonus points in cases #1-9 ^^

Ooh, maybe!


message 85: by Isabel (new)

Isabel | 1328 comments i just posted "Northanger Abbey" for the case #25


message 86: by Shan ~A~ (new)

Shan ~A~ | 715 comments I'm confused so I'm posting my books on SS (if it fits a case) and in review thread. If need to be removed let me know. Or just remove it.


message 87: by Isabel (new)

Isabel | 1328 comments @Shan

i think only Aly, as team-captain is supposed to alter the SS
but i do think you can simply post your books for either a case or page points


message 88: by Kelly (last edited Jan 03, 2021 03:05PM) (new)

Kelly | 3912 comments For the first week we only need to take out 8 cases. Next week, it will be six. I edited my posts and now we only post our books for pages points :) until 01/08

Cases eliminated so far : 3 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 15 - 20 - 24 - 25

Pretty fancy numbers there.


message 90: by Isabel (new)

Isabel | 1328 comments does that mean that next week we should read again from 1-25 but for the numbers we have not covered yet?

Yes, we'll take out cases we haven't mentioned yet :) so these :

1 - 2 - 4 - 5 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12 -13 - 14 - 16 - 17 - 18 - 19 - 21 - 22 -23


message 94: by Isabel (new)

Isabel | 1328 comments ok thank you!


message 95: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 3912 comments I looked at my books and my tbr and even though I'm going to read a lot, their page numbers aren't very helpful ahah. I'll only have one for #16 (Spoiler Alert), #17 (The Gray Wolf Throne) and #12 (A gathering of shadows)

You expect my intelligence to be high when it comes to thinking ahead. Alas, it is not. Lmfao.


message 97: by Felicia (new)

Felicia | 15003 comments Adding Vicki!


message 98: by Felicia (new)

Felicia | 15003 comments Guys, you've chosen waaaay to many cases. 11 actually. The last three posted will not count for a case, only page count.


message 99: by Felicia (new)

Felicia | 15003 comments After removing the first eight cases, here is the offer you need to discuss to decide if you want to accept: 60 bonus points

Your chance of getting the 150 case is: 51%

According to the site I'm using to calculate offers.

Please let me know before the start of the next week if you're accepting the offer or going for a bigger payout. :D

If you want case specifics, please go to your teams review thread.


message 100: by Aly (new)

Aly (alyp_01) | 28947 comments Mod
To avoid choosing too many cases as we go, please don't update the SS. I will do that for us. And let's discuss what cases we post so we're all on the same page.

Attack Salmon, you posted for case 25 but Isabel already posted for it.
