I would say pick one card for one book and the reason why :)
( if needed i can move the book around if it fits for a another card thats unused :) )

Heather Moore | 405 comments Can we list the book with all the cards it fits in the comments or can we get a tracking sheet that has columns for the different cards. It is easier for move things where they are needed that way.

Ill see what i can do

Usually we get a separate tracking sheet or we list the books in the comments. They historically have not wanted us to add to the captains sheet because the captains have to verify that the book was added to our bookshelf and they often move the books around.

Dale | 417 comments NEW Spread sheet

Molly | 87 comments Just requested access, but in case it is easier for you to add:

I am thinking I will kick off with All My Friends Are Going to Be Strangers which will apply for any non-colored "2" card (second book in a series & is set in Texas). If anyone in the group has already read that one, let me know because then it could also apply to one of the Reverse cards :)

I also have Little Rot, which could count for "8" (author last name), "0" (stand-alone book), or "9" (takes place in Nigeria).

Annnnd lastly, You'll Never Believe Me: A Life of Lies, Second Tries, and Things I Should Only Tell My Therapist which could count for "Skip" (author first name), "4" (author last name), or "0" (stand-alone book).

I am sure I'll have many more as my library holds roll in 😂


message 61: by Molly (new)

Molly | 87 comments Oh, and question for the team captains: I just picked up V for Vendetta; would this be able to count even though it is a graphic novel? I'm not sure if graphic novels are considered books in the uno challenge. LMK! :)

You should have access :)


message 63: by Molly (new)

Molly | 87 comments Great - thanks!

One last question; how do we know how many of each non-colored card we have in our hands? Or will you just let us know once we've reached the max amount of 1s, 2s, etc? Or can we read as many as we want? It's been a while since I've done this challenge, apologies 😂

We could let you know what we are missing:)
Read as much as you want :)

Thieryn | 62 comments I will stick with the one I added the books to, the one you created Dale I am not sure how it works, the one I added my books to makes much more sense to me, has all the info I need etc.

Hannah (titchhx) | 35 comments So excited for February!!
I’m away this weekend so won’t be able to fill in the spreadsheet. But I plan to read The Last Devil to Die - Richard Osman, which I commented earlier on. I think it counts for 2.

Is it ok to add/choose books as I finish each one? I think I’ll find it easier to see what’s available and then find one on my shelf that fits?

It no longer says view only at the top, but it won't let me click on any cells other than the book links in the body of the spreadsheet.

I can access and edit the one that looks like our team spread sheet, but without access to the other one, you won't know what other numbers it can be used for if you need to move them around.

I am sorry but this spreadsheet is super messy, and I can't edit anything on it. I have played Uno so many times and I have never had issues like this. All of this would have been resolved in the original spreadsheet in like 5 minutes.
Now I don't know how many spreadsheets there are, so I will keep adding to the only one that I can edit, which is this one.
