I'm in for serious! I had thought about taking a break from challenges this month but this challenge looks too good to miss out on!

Let me know what you decide Once ☺

[Rachmi]

Hmmm...I still don't understand how to play this one, but I'm in :D And since I love being in a team with my current team member (hopefully I'll get the same one next month) I want to be in serious team too.

It's a little bit like bookish blocks - You read books based on descriptions. As you're in a team though, you need to work out which descriptions people are going to tick off, so you can complete the "levels" quicker.
Up to four people can read something for the same description, but you won't get any closer to "finishing" the game.

Does that help at all? :)

Abbie's right, it's like bookish blocks, but there will be a team of you trying to complete all the squares, and because there are four players in the film, each team can complete the squares four times ☺

[Danielle ♥]

I am so excited! When do you announce teams so we can start planning?

[Tati]

As Sarah is away on holiday, I'm guessing we won't know the teams before Sunday, at least

[Melanie]

I'm in! Just for fun this time ;)

[Rachael]

I really wasn't gonna do another challenge but of course you have a fun one!! I'll join but Just For Fun this time

Basically we need to finish the game as soon as possible, right? so it's better if the team member tick off each description to finish the levels, instead of 4 member reading the same description?

[Kim at Divergent Gryffindor]

Can I still join? Just for fun :)

Yes, the aim of the game is to finish it, but if you've read a book that only fits a description someone else has done, or you want to buddy read a book together, then you can still submit it and get points for your overall team score and solo score. :)

[Jade]

What the different between Solo and Fun?
(I know with 'Fun' you're on a team)

If you go for fun, you're in a team, so you can help each other complete descriptions, talk about who's going to cross off what, talk to each other about what you're reading ect. If you're in a team, you still get a solo score as well. With solo, you do it all on your own, and you don't have teammates you can talk too. (Although, you can still go and talk to other people on their team threads - It just won't be your team.)

[Jade]

Can I change from solo to Fun??

[Abi]

Jade wrote: "Can I change from solo to Fun??"

Sarah will switch you over when she's back. :)

[Jade]

okay thank you :)

[Ammo]

Hi i was just wondering if we can do it pairs or does it have to be a team of 4? and also we get to choose our team right?

[Abi]

Amrita wrote: "Hi i was just wondering if we can do it pairs or does it have to be a team of 4? and also we get to choose our team right?"

There's more than 2 people in the teams, and we choose the teams based on how many books people have read so far in the year to make it fair for everyone. :)

* Bonus points will be given each time one of the four parts of the challenge is completed. (Bonus points for completion of parts will be awarded to teams only, not individual players)

Does that mean completing all the descriptions in a part?

Thanks

Does that m..."

Yes :)

[Reading Rediscovered]

I'll do my best to be serious about this challenge!

[Rachael]

So for the last part, the spell Jumanji, Does one person need to read all the books that spell that or can the letters be split between team?

They can be split :)

You're signed up for a serious team. :)

[Kim]

This challenge is going to epic. I'm in for Just for fun.

[Rachael]

Just wondering when the teams will be announced? This seams like it will take a lot of team planning.

[Berit☀️✨]

I think Sarah is out of town until Saturday, so probably after that :-)

Okay guys, I'm going to work out the teams now. Bear with me though because I'm doing this in my bathroom while my 4-year-old plays with a hot wheels colour changing playset, and I keep having to top up the hot and cold water! ha ha!

[Christina]

Haha!
