Hi, sorry to be a pain. Just wanted to check about spreadsheet on the overall points section it shows as me only having read 4 books, but I have 6 done on there and category's shows correctly. Not sure what I've missed
I noticed similar, I was like three books short on the spread sheet up until today. I added them myself, though.

Ive noticed it for a while, but I thought maybe it just needed time to catch up or that I'd missed something. But I checked my dates and category's everything else is showing fine so weird...

Looking at the sheet it says Trip has only read 4 books, but on the next page Trip has 8 books listed. Same thing is happening with Tina, first page says 4 books but I count 6 on the second page. It has me and Katie counted properly, though. I dunno if the count is being corrected by moderators, but I don’t want to not say anything just in case it hasn’t been brought to anyone’s attention.

Hey, thanks for checking too. Glad not just showing that for me ☺️
I think Tina's is fine though as showing 5 for me, and she has 6 but one hasn't got date read confirmed yet so not on overall yet.
Hoping mods will see message when they next update thread's.

@Trip: Okay, so I double and triple checked--it looks like there was something wrong with one of the functions in one of your cells. I fixed it now and it should automatically update from here on out. (Checked it for everyone just to be safe.) If for some reason it doesn't, post a comment and we can try again. Sorry about all that, we'll get through this, I promise!
