End-Of-The-Year Special Challenge- SIGN UPS CLOSED

[B , Bookish Bhavya {trying to be active again!}]

End-Of-The-Year Special Challenge

Hello everyone, as the end of the year 2021 is near, we decided doing an extra challenge to complete our reading goals and tbrs! We thought to do this challenge, as everyone here has a never ending tbr! :)

-This challenge has an option, you can sign up for competitive solo, or non-competitive solo and team. To clarify, solo can be competitive or non-competitive but team is ONLY non-competitive. You can also take part in solo competitive but team non-competitive.
-It starts on 17th December 2021 to 31st December 2021. It's 15 days long.

Rules:

-You’ll need to compile a tbr by (Dec 17th), with a min of 5-10 books in a tbr log which we will open. If you read a book from that list, you’ll get +5 points along with the other points mentioned below.
-You can read books that are not on your tbr, but in that case, you won’t get the +5 for knocking it from your tbr. You will still get points for the pg count, buddy reads and reviews.
-You can add more books and modify your tbr anytime.
-Rereads count as well.
-Books can be read in any format. If its an audiobook, please count the page of another edition.
-Books that you have started before December WILL count as well, as long as you finish it in December.
-The books can be of any language and any genre.
-If you are taking part non-competitive solo, the same rules apply without the point system. Books still need to be logged.
-If you are taking part non-competitive team, the same rules apply without the point system, and points for buddy reads & reviews as this will be like a big buddy read in itself. Books still need to be logged by the team leader.

Point System:

Below 100 pages: 5 points
100 - 199 pages: 10 points
200 - 299 pages: 15 points
300 - 399 pages: 20 points
400 - 499 pages: 25 points
500 - 599 pages: 30 points
600 - 699 pages: 35 points
700 - 799 pages: 40 points
800 - 899 pages: 45 points
900+ pages: 50 points
And so on.

+5 points if the book was on your tbr.
+5 points if you write a review
+5 for buddy reads in this group
+5 for reading the December BOTM(s) of THIS GROUP

Can I ask two questions?
For "5 points if the book was on your tbr" it means it was in my "want to read" Goodreads shelf?
For "+5 points if you write a review" itìs enough the Goodreads review?

Thanks!

Hi!
1. Actually, everyone will be expected to make a tbr in a thread that we will provide, with a list of at least 5 books. But we can check your 'want to read' list as well (as long as your profile is public)
2. Yes, a gr review!

Anytime. Feel free to ask more questions. :)

[Silly Pick]

I was confused because it was written "If you read a book from that list, you’ll get +1 points along with the other points mentioned below", so I thought they were two different things ^^

Does it mean if we read a book from that list we'll get 5 or 6 points? :)

Yes, the first line of the rules actually says that you have to make a list in the log. :)
Sorry, it should be +5. I wrote +1 by accident and forgot to change it. Will change it now. 🤦‍♀️
