Welcome to the Fall 2022 Challenge! This begins our 14th year.

Welcome back returning players! Thank you for making this group so much fun. If you are just joining us as a new player, we are glad you are here.

If you need help getting started please see Getting Started, SRC Explained, and Welcome Newcomers.

The Fall 2022 bonus theme is: The Wizard of Oz- The Tin Woodman - Heart
There are 56 tasks.
The Challenge point goal is 960.

10 x 5 points = 50
10 x 10 points = 100
10 x 15 points = 150
10 x 20 points = 200
8 x 25 points = 200
7 x 30 points = 210
1 x 50 points = 50

Many of the tasks have already been posted. The remaining tasks will be posted as they are available. The aim is to have all tasks, excepting 50.1, posted by September 7. All tasks are draft until September 12 or 5 days after the last task is posted. Please carefully review the task descriptions after the task become final as task requirements may have changed during the review period. Task 50.1 will be posted after the season midpoint October 15.


Please read the task descriptions thoroughly!

We strongly recommend that you review The Rules of the Challenge, Posting Requirements and Default Rules and FAQs.

We will continue the 50 point task contest. The submission thread will open September 12.
The next year's bonus theme will be decided. The suggestion thread will open on September 12.

The Fall 2022 Challenge folder holds or will soon hold: Challenge Tasks, Completed Tasks, the Readerboard, Questions/Problems, the current Challenge Rules, the season's Group Reads discussion threads, Task Ideas, the Calendar and submission threads for the season's contests.
The topics can be sorted by clicking on the topics heading.

The Fall 2022 Challenge will end on November 30, 2022 at midnight Eastern time.

Please be patient as we work through whatever changes Goodreads throws at us.

We hope this season's tasks lead you to some great books. Happy reading!

It's a Fact tickets are ongoing- explained in Rewards of the Challenge and Posting Requirements.

Book Concierge (tessabookconcierge) | 4461 comments Thanks, Dlmrose ... I did finally find it.

The FAQs mention both GO and BB tickets, but have no mention of It's a Fact tickets.

The use of It's A Fact tickets is something new we've been trying for a couple seasons, unlike GO and BB tickets. The IAF tickets are explained in the Rewards section and the Posting Requirements and that should be sufficient. If this becomes a permanent thing, we can revamp other rules to cover it.
