Question about Payback in Death. It's tagged Sci Fi Romance on the first page of tags by 3 people. But when I click on that tag, it takes me to Science Fiction Romance, a different shelf. Does that work, because the tags on the page say the same thing, or not because the link is different?

Shelf it takes me to: https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/...

[Laura]

I'll leave my question, in case the answer benefits anyone else, but it is shelved Paranormal Romance by 1 person, so it works.

The list of tags says Sci-Fi Romance, that's all you need, you don't click on that link. As you say, you don't need it for this shelf, but might need the answer for the future.

Thanks! I tend to second guess myself, so I clicked the link to reassure myself it was right. 😂

Did the spreadsheet for this round ever get posted anywhere? I like to look at what each team needs about now.

I was looking for that too. I think there are at least three teams that could bingo already since they have three in a row going into this week

Spreadsheet as requested, remembering that it will change with the new shelf in about half an hour's time:

Awesome, thanks!

Thanks for keeping that updated for us, Sandra!

Just an FYI and one I forgot to share earlier —
I’m located in Virginia. We “fell back” this past Sunday, so 6pm shelf announcement time here will be either an hour earlier or later for those of you who either do not participate in daylight savings time changes or have them occur later or earlier in your country. I will continue to post shelf announcements on Wednesdays at 6pm my time. To determine what time that is in your time zone, this site can help - https://www.timeanddate.com/worldcloc... or other time converters found online.

Thanks and sorry for any inconvenience.

Who would think that I could apply at my work all the things I've learnt about timezone at goodreads/Facebook (living at CET (Spain), working with people at PDT/EDT/IST/Central)

Hey, my sweet bingo babes, just a friendly reminder on our mandatories for this round. We're all learning as we try out five set "shelves" along with weekly categories.

1. Your book choice must be located on one of the five shelves using any of the links shared with you on the shelf announcement page.

2. We mods do actually check your review for all necessary bits and bobs, including checking your book choices are found on whichever shelf you listed.

3. We all agree, wholeheartedly, GR f*cked up our perfectly good shelving system. So, we try to offer ways to make sure your preferred BSB books appear on the shelves necessary to use them during the game.

Best way to ensure this ... add them to the SOS bookshelves using the appropriate shelves, assuming of course they fit the shelf. <--- This can only be done, to be fair, prior to the start of the round.

Thanks 😊
