The Amazing Race Team Challenge - Round 9 - Tracking/Q&A/Announcements
I believe I’ve assigned tasks for all the teams that posted today. Please let me know if I missed something. We are driving home now, but I will try to check in again before we get home.
Books selected for this task need to have been read by a teammate on or after (add date) and rated at least 4 stars. (Series rule applies.)Series rule — does this mean if my teammate read book 2, I can read whatever book is next for me? 1, 2, or 8 ? Even if book 1 is on her shelf with ineligible dates or stars?

Yes, for this task that is correct.
If the task is to read at least 600 pages with an audio book edition available - Am I correct in this post to my team? "Not necessarily - I believe the 600 pages is between ALL of us. So, 600/4 is only at least a 150 page book for each of us."

So, 600/4 is ..."Correct. Whether it is the page number total or number of books, it is the total for the team.
I didn't get completely caught up today - yesterday kicked my butt!I should get everything checked and tracking updated tomorrow. 🤞🏼
As always, don't hesitate to point out if I've missed something!

There is no minimum number, the book just has to be tagged to qualify.
I will allow both of those tags.

Hi Kat! For #71. Pick another team and each member reads one book that was read by a member for this challenge. No pass for this task. Does the series rule apply for this task? 😊

Last round I wasn't sure, so I allowed it. 🤷🏻♀️ So you are good to use the series rule for #71.
I will add it to the task description/requirements so I don't have to search the next round. 😂
Yay! Somehow I had it in my mind that it wasn't allowed, but I wasn't sure either and was REALLY hoping I was wrong. Thanks!

Thanks!"My initial thoughts were no, but thought to look at past rounds. I allowed it the last round, so that was the precedent I found. I try to make this challenge more laid back so that fits.
