Task 5.3 requires either a one-word title with three letters or a three-word title. The Partly Cloudy Patriot is four words.

Task 30.2 requires a minimum combined page count of 500 pages. Your books only total 485 pages.

Dragon's Bait - 196 pages
Moon Called - 289 pages."


Hmm, that doesn't seem right. My copy of Moon Called has 350 pages. I think I chose the wrong edition. I will re-post.

Trish (trishhartuk) | 3675 comments Sorry to trouble you.

I was checking the readerboard, which you now have out to message #2,400. You have me with 400pt, but my records have 410pt. It was right at the last check, and I don't see anything in this thread raising a problem, so I was wondering if you may have missed my task 10.7 claim in #2392: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/....

Thanks.

Emurphy | 851 comments Hi, I was checking the Readerboard, and I did not get credit for my 50 point prompt. It was Post #2361...I checked here for Questions/Problems and I do not see an issue. Thanks for your help!

Turns out I'd missed 10.10. I'll get that fixed momentarily, thanks for letting me know.

No, there were no problems, just my brain moving too fast for my hands to keep up while doing the spreadsheet. Fixed now, sorry about that!

Thanks. I guess that was the other task I posted after the last update! :-)

The original publication date for Twelfth Night is listed in the GR record as 1955, and that's what I have to use. Sadly, that means I can't award a Golden Oldies ticket.

Your points for task 25.3 have been recorded.

Task 25.4 requires one of your books to be non-fiction. Both Marked by Fire and Archangel's Lineage appear to be fiction.

Please note that as mentioned in the recent announcement there will now be no Readerboard update until August 30th.

In a case of lightning striking twice (thankfully not literally), I'm being called away for a second funeral and will have no PC access until I get home. I'll be able to hop in via mobile to answer questions about tasks in help threads, but I won't be able to make amendments to the Readerboard while I'm gone. If you spot a problem with your points total or BB/GO/IAF tickets, post here as normal and I'll get it sorted as soon as I can once I get back.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Haha, completely my fault for not realizing they might use the publication date of the translation rather than the original!

Task 15.10 requires a title of 6, 7 or 8 words. Adoption: Should You, Could You, and Then What? only has a one-word title.

From the default rules: For SRC purposes, we use the first : (colon) to mark the title and subtitle - so, anything before the first colon is the title, anything after it is the subtitle (even if multiple colons and subtitles are included).
