Ebb (ebbsbooks) | 128 comments I was in the middle of a book when the mini challenge was announced. My book fits the new challenge color. Can I still get mini challenge points for it?

Somewhere someone was asking if a book can be counted twice on a mini challenge if both the cover had the color and the title/series name mentioned the color.

No - any of those can qualify the book for the mini challenge, but it can only be counted once.

Can someone help me filter that back to where the question was asked as I've lost where that was lol.

Thanks.

War can be fought for many reasons - not necessarily the same as vengeance so I'm going to say no on this one.

Using what was accepted before for knowledge - aware, know(s), knowing, information, learn, lore, wisdom

I would say understand/understood would be similar to knows/knowing so I'll accept it.

I'll accept anything started within the time frame of the main challenge, as long as it is completed after the start of the mini challenge.

Apoorv  Moghe (goodreadscomapoorv) Penni, if a certain book fits into multiple 'Top 20 of Best of' lists, can it used those many number of times ?

No, just once.


❤Stephanie ღ♥ღMrs Daryl Dixonღ♥ღ Would having the name of a God or anything else that works for the God theme in the title or series title work for count towards Power points

for example this book Hercules (Twelve Labors #1) by Cree Storm works for God theme but would it also work for Power points since the gods name is in the title?

SandyL Hi Penni
Does Shifting work for a power word?

Thx

Penni | 1292 comments Mod
If it's in the context of shape shifting yes


message 232: by Shannon (new)

Shannon (pokey36) | 355 comments Penni, what about "Teaching" or "Teach" for a Knowledge power word?

No on that - teaching is the act of gaining knowledge, not knowledge itself.

Excellent - thanks!!


message 243: by Shannon (new)

Shannon (pokey36) | 355 comments We can use just the word of the animal they change into for a power word? So it doesn't have to be were(something)??


message 244: by SandyL (new)

SandyL Penni wrote: "~Melissa~ wrote: "Will LUPI work for power word Shape Changer - since the humans change into Lupi?"

Yes"


So does that mean we can also use wolf, bear, jaguar, shark....etc in the title instead of needing "were" as part of it? That really adds a lot of eligible power words

Sorry - lost track of this one.


I'm not really familiar with Lupi - is it just any kind of animal that turns into a human as opposed to were's that go the the other way? Kinda like in Kate Daniels? Or is it some kind of particular animal only?


message 248: by SandyL (new)

SandyL Its a wolf/werewolf


message 249: by ~Melissa~ (new)

~Melissa~ Penni - my question was about LUPI - the series is called World of Lupi.
The Lupi are all wolf shifters.

When you said yes to me for using it as power word Sandy and Shannon's question is if they can use other animals in the title for power word of Shapechanger if the book they read is about shifters.

Might be easier to just say no to my original question since we are so far into the game but that is just my two cents. We'll all go with whatever you decide.

Yea - I get the distinction. I was thinking lupi was like werewolf, but in reverse. Sort of generic like Skinwalker for shapehanger already allowed. Hadn't thought about it expanding to every kind of animal and having to go back and recalculate.

I'm going to say - this late in the game - we'll let lupi stand, but not all different animals. I think I answered a similar question on the book verification thread in the same way. Since Lupi is a shape changing wolf we'll go with it. Bear doesn't say shape shifting.

Hope that line of reasoning works.

Thanks for being patient :-)
