message 84: by Rusalka, Moderator (new)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19213 comments Oh Stacy, I am really sorry, but "Beekeeper" unfortunately doesn't count for the "Bee" task. This is explained in rule 10:

10. Compound words/Imbedded words/Plurals: When a task requires a specific word in the title, it must match the required word as close as possible unless specifically stated in the individual task. It may not be included as a compound word or imbedded in another word. In the situation of plurals, you may add an "s" or "es", but you may not change the word to a plural form if it's different from the required word. Eg - Mice cannot be used as the plural for Mouse. If reading a book in a language other than English, the word must be a direct translation.

Sorry for being a meany :( But here's hoping you discover an amazing book as a replacement!

Stacy (missmcstace) | 268 comments Oh, you're not being a meanie Rusalka. I'm sorry I obviously did not read that rule properly, honestly, don't let me get away with it lol! I would absolutely hate to cheat at a challenge. I have, I think, found a very good book to replace it... The Colour Of Bee Larkham's Murder 😁


message 90: by Rusalka, Moderator (new)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19213 comments Heh thanks for being so understanding, and I do agree with you entirely if it was me. I just hate telling someone no when they have already read a book! But thems the rules, and I am glad you have found a replacement already.

And us mods know we are meanies, so it's okay. It's a well used, mainly teasing but sometimes true, title in the group ;)
