Whew, Don't You Want a Balloon has a lot of points already. I just went and looked at the leader board.

[bamaace83]

I've got one of my books done and working on the others. I have so many challenges with spreadsheets that I'm trying to remember to come in every other day just to get things updated.

I did finish it. I'm sorry I forgot to update the spreadsheet!! Gah!! I've had a really crappy week at work. My computer died on me.

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

Danielle Gypsy Soul wrote: "I moved her book down to title that starts with a letter in SPIDER since it worked for that and I put my book above under L. So now we are good to go for the arms/legs."

Thanks Danielle.

[bamaace83]

It's okay. I was wondering where you disappeared. Did you get your computer fixed or did you have to replace it?

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

I got a replacement. It was a week from hell.

New equipment is really spiffy so there's that.

[bamaace83]

A new computer is always fun but having a rough work week is not. Hopefully this week is better.

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

I finished a shifter book with more points - since you have two books still to finish Namita I put my shifter book in place of yours. So just the 25/27 in the page count left.

[bamaace83]

Cool, that sounds like a good switch for more points.

Sounds good. I'll be done by tomorrow.

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

I vote for Cleaver & LIl Miss Cleaver as our next choice. I'm checking us in :)

[bamaace83]

Sounds good. I have a lazy weekend planned where I'm hoping to knock out a few books.

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

Works for me

Cleaver & Lil Miss Cleaver

The Cleaver was a man who found a job as a clown but then came home to discover his wife was having an affair. He put on his clown suit and then killed her and her lover. The cops showed up and he ran off laughing. He disappeared but children also disappeared every year and someone was always found butchered at the same time. He is looking for his daughter, whom he had left behind and was put up for adoption. Once he finds her, it becomes a family business! The Cleavers are known for setting traps and enjoy torturing their victims.

Complete the following tasks

To Catch the Cleaver
Arm 1: Read a chain of 3 books with someone having an affair
Arm 2: Read a chain of 3 books tagged family
Leg 1: Read a chain of 3 books where someone disappears
Leg 2: Read a chain of 3 books with all the letters of TRAP in the title

To Catch Lil Miss Cleaver
Arm 1: Read a chain of 3 books with a daughter in the story
Arm 2: Read a chain of 3 books with someone who is adopted
Leg 1: Read a chain of 3 books with a family business
Leg 2: Read a chain of 3 books with all the letters of CLEAVER in the title/series

[bamaace83]

Well, we may be hanging out here for just a bit. I'm going to see what books I have lined up this week that work but most of these shouldn't be hard for me. I think the two hardest for me might be the affair and adopted but I'll work on this hunt tomorrow.

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

Affair might be a bit difficult to find. Dang it.

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

Well I'm back and since I can't sleep on airplanes and it was a VERY LONG FLIGHT I got a lot read yesterday and one of my books just happened to have a character that was having an affair!

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

Lucky you, Danielle!! The book part, not the long flight :D

[bamaace83]

Glad you made it back from vacation but that stinks you couldn't sleep on the airplane. That's good on the airplane book. I'm glad that my 500 page book I finished last night worked for one of them. I should have some good books this week to add. I haven't started hunting yet for the affair book but something will pop up.

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

I'm off to look for books and add them so I don't lose track since I'm in so many challenges...lol

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

I have found that 4 books that I have read/reading qualify for tasks. I can't be happier.
Still need to find the affair book.

[bamaace83]

Preach! I'm also in tons of challenges and I'm over here trying to get my books to fit where I need them to. Spreadsheets galore. I think if her parents are mentioned in the story, she's a daughter. At least that's how I would interpret it.

That's how your mod would interpret it as well ; )

[bamaace83]

Just went and updated tons of my books. It looks like I only have one left and already have a book ready to go for it.

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

I have one left as well and it's an audio book and I'm driving to Utah on Wednesday so I'll finish it on the road trip.

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

I also have one book left.

[bamaace83]

Got mine finished and updated. Today is an off reading day for me so I'm working on getting my books ready.

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

I should be done by this evening. Off to the next Clown!!

[bamaace83]

I’m good with whatever clown yall want when it’s time to pick.

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

I think we should go with *Captain Spaulding

[bamaace83]

Sure sounds good to me.

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

Finished my book but I won’t be on the computer to mark it done until tonight. I’m good with whatever clown you guys want next.

[bamaace83]

I snuck a peak at another team's Captain Spaulding and I think we should be able to knock that one out pretty easily when we get there.

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

Done and updated the spreadsheet.

[Donna, Curator of Challenge Terrors]

Captain Spaulding

Captain Spaulding earned the nickname "Cutter" for stabbing a man to death. He is the patriarch of the Firefly family but keeps this secret so he can send victims to his family. He runs a gas station in Texas. His biggest sales are his fried chicken and his roadside haunted house attraction known as "Captain Spaulding's Museum of Monsters and Madmen". The museum has many strange exhibits and oddities including the famous Murder Ride. A few incidents happened here at Captain Spaulding's. An attempted robbery occurred at the location but both robbers were killed in the act. Two young couples disappeared after a visit to the museum as well.

Complete the following tasks
Arm 1: Read a chain of 3 books with a father
Arm 2: Read a chain of 3 books tagged family
Leg 1: Read a chain of 3 books with a disappearance in the story
Leg 2: Read a chain of 3 books with a haunted house

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

I have my 4 books picked out and on the SS :)

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

I have to find some books. Will do so over the weekend.

[bamaace83]

I'm going to need to do some hunting for the haunted house book but I should be able to do the others with books that I have planned.

[bamaace83]

Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. I know things have been busy for a lot of us and the notifications are really screwy!

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

Doing well. Thanks for checking up on us. Still reading. Will finish my books by mid-week next week.

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

I have 2 left - one I just started and the second one with the haunted house I'll read next. Should be done by Tuesday next week.

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

I have one book to go and I'll be done. Should be done later today.

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

One book for me as well - Should be done by tomorrow

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

Finished my last book so as soon as Namita lets us know she finished her book we will be ready to move on to the next clown.

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

For our next clown I vote for any of the following:

Joker
Horny
Art
The Heads
JoJo

[bamaace83]

I’m good with any of those.

[Namita , Ms. Ink and Insights]

I checked us in. Our next clown is Joker.

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

Thanks Namita!

[bamaace83]

Thanks! I went to peek on another thread and I think I should be able to get most of them done pretty easily with books that I have planned.

[Donna, Curator of Challenge Terrors]

Spying, are we? That will not work for all the clowns. Will it work for this one? We will see...
