huzzah! Playing again? (some of us are nuts and started again with a bigger maze! 😅

[Ashley]

I MIGHT... but I also have a bunch of books that I want to read that I don't want to have to worry about finding a fit for them. I usually have a mid-year slump for specific tasks, and have to slim down my challenges to 1-2, which is where I'm at now (not including year-long challenges). I may wait until after Towers... or longer...

I'll get bored after a bit of trying to think of what to read, and start challenges again, lol

[Mollie]

I’d like to sign up for this challenge on hard please

[Sammy]

sounds sensible to me :)

I don't do sensible, lol. (Actually, I've very sensibly resisted joining any of the other team challenges popping up. I can only cope with one at a time!)

[Sammy]

You can see how to set up your maze here Mollie:

[Judy]

Well..

Task: Read a book where the first word of the title is A
Direction: South (N-Z

I assume the same rule applies as for book that starts with an impossible letter -> in this case, author’s last name starts with A ?

[Ilsen]

No I got this task. It’s not that the first letter has to be A, it just has to start with the article “A”. So you could still do South if it’s something like “A Sky Beyond the Storm” or something like that. Hope this helps!

[Judy]

That makes sense, definitely counter-intuitive though! 😅

[Ilsen]

Oh yes, it can be a bit confusing. I think if you log it in with the article, it would count.

[The other Sandy]

I think you have to enter the title without the article in order to be able to move south. I think what I did when that happened to me was to enter the title as "Sky Beyond the Storm, A" to make the move in the maze while showing my title met the letter requirement.

[Judy]

Yep, definitely have to enter without the article, I've done that before. Just weird because for this task the title has to start with the word "a"

[Sammy]

I always put the article at the end if using the next word in the maze :)

[Ilsen]

Oh ok! I never actually had this specific thing happened to me but I wondered what to do. Thank you!

So excited to join this! I have created my maze (nesshawk).
