From posting requirements:
13. While it is OK to shift books between tasks during a challenge, this is the procedure required:
First, identify and "unclaim" any tasks involved in your book changes with a separate post for each task involved. Include the task number, the options used, and a link to each book originally claimed.
(Remember to copy a post, click "edit" at the bottom of the post, and copy from that screen to copy the html)
Next, do a new post, claiming any task involved in the changes. This must be a complete task posting, with all information required by the task, the options chosen, and the books claimed. No different from an original post.
Mod
