My readerboard score says 215, where it should be 220.

Thanks but I have 6 more BB Tickets between posts 1600 and 1713 for a new total of 13. These books are all included in my readerboard score.
I just added an 800 page book so after newest posts are apporved I should have 15 big book tickets
Sorry for the confusion. Is there a better way for me to mark them? They are normally on a line by themselves and in italic and bold. And I also add a line Task Big Book Tickets and well as a Total Big Book Tickets. I cant imagine the chaos and stress of moderating this competition so just trying to find ways to simplify and make it easier for you guys.

Up to post #1750 I've claimed
2 BB tickets - posts #1564 & #1636
1 GO ticket - post #1564
According to readerboard, I have 1 BB and 2 GO tickets.

I will get this fixed on the next update.
these are easy to miss when there is a lot of info on post, which is also needed.
I think the best way is to add astricts around them and bold them . I think that is the most noticeable.
We are trying to work on a solution to make this more seamless with all the info that is included.

Thank You
FYI it looks like my BB Tickets were inadvertently put in Golden Oldies. I definitely don't have 6 of those LOL.

Would making a note in the title that there's a BB / GO / IAF claim help.
e.g.
Task 5.10 - Free for Fall + BB (or GO, or IAF + BB etc etc)

This is the issue and some posts have more info than we need which bogs it up and its easy to miss things. When doing 50-150 posts at one time, eyes start to blur and cross.

The book Tainted was first published in 2016.
The task calls for a book first published in 2002 or 2020

i think that's a great idea

My point is that just adding the info to the required opening stuff (Readerboard name, task number, task title) that everyone HAS to post is the minimal change required to flag to the mods at first glance to check for further info, moving it away from relying on spotting it at the bottom of the task claim, and without requiring a more detailed template.

I have the following:
Post 93 - Task 5.2
Post 508 - Task 25.5 - 2 nonfiction books
Post 673 - Task 15.7
Post 834 - Task 15.10
Post 1097 - Task 20.8
Post 1378 - Task 20.6
Post 1626 - Task 20.3
I just checked all these and under the name of the book, I always put a line on the post saying **Claiming 1 IAF pt for nonfiction".
I'm astounded that the Mods can manage this site so well. I thought about volunteering to help with moderating but knowing I am not good with details, I figured I would cause more problems than I solved!

It looks like the Big Book and It's A Fact tickets from post #1614 haven't been added to my totals. However, it looks like I have a Golden Oldie ticket listed that I didn't claim. Thanks for checking on this!

in post #1738. It wasn't counted in the golden oldies total. Did the book not qualify?

Thanks

Hello. I think one of my point posts got missed. Comment 1916 for task 15.5 - Oh No, Not Again. My total should be 345.
Thank you!

Leather & Lark doesn't appear to fit the the 15.3 task requirement of superhero or vigilante. From the main page summary, I read that the MC is an assassin.

On the readerboard, the alphabetical list has my points correct, but the first post still has my points at 995 instead of 1035.

Task 20.8 has already been claimed in message 731"
Sorry! I just checked but message 731 was for task 20.9. I somehow forgot to include the task number and only had "Option 1: Emotional Skills Matter!". Can I edit message #731 and still claim 20.8 in message 2421 or should everything be reposted?
Thank you!

Hey Mai!
Not a moderator but have been a member since 2014 - you definitely need to repost everything; one of the rules in the main rule section is that you can't edit past ones and if there are any issues to repost. Otherwise the moderators would be going backwards all the time and their lives are already hard enough! :)

Thank you
