You ever come up with discussion questions? I may be able to squeeze in 5 more points before midnite tomorrow... ;-)
Alright, I'm sorry I disappeared on you. I had a bit of a family emergency, and then when that was all settled(ish) -- the internet was working. And of course Charter couldn't send someone out or fix it because of the holiday. Sorry.Now, onto the business at hand.
Here is the leaderboard as it stands. I still have to do a little double-checking, but honestly, I'm not going to check all that hard. I trust you guys, you're cool, and I don't think it would make that much different in the standings even if someone's points changed slightly. You can check out the points spreadsheet here (http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?ke...) and check for discrepancies if you wish.
(Angela, I gave you the points for the BB discussion question thing, because it's not your fault I didn't post, so I just went ahead and awarded them. :D)
LEADERBOARD:
Kellee: 325 points (8927 pages)
Heather: 265 points (7738 pages)
Angela: 255 points (7107 pages)
Mandy: 175 (4307)
Misty: 104.16 (I deducted from myself for not writing up discussion questions or making extras -- which I actually did make, but ruined, and never redid...) (3148 pages)
Kristen: 101.66 points (2238 pages)
Jennifer: 80 points (1481 pages)
Mic: 60 points (1144 pages)
Now, I had originally intended to have 2 winners, 1 point leader and 1 random, but as there are only 7 of you, and you all stuck with it pretty nicely, I'd like to send you each something. So if you want a prize, message me your mailing address and something (not entirely sure what yet) will make it's way to you. Kellee, your prize is a gift certificate from Better World Books, which I think is especially appropriate, since their whole agenda is about spreading literacy to other cultures. Perfect, right? All I need is your email address, my dear, and I will have it to you soon.
Thanks guys!
