Celeste (celesteryr) | 381 comments Following Namsoo to the Bathhouse and Following Namsoo to the Bathhouse (has page numbers) by Cuke Soap. Same Book just different editions. It's 45 chapters long and it is completed/completely done. Regardless it is well over the 200 page requirement for comic strips etc.

If there is a paperback edition, you should always go to the librarian thread and have it associated with the ebook. This thread is designed to allow the use of ebooks that DO NOT have a paper edition as long as Dlmrose can verify that they are at least 100 pages long.

I have a question about this. Message 60 in this thread says that once verified, an e-book only can be used for Rule 4/5 point task/80-100 pages. Has this changed and now the book must be the usual 100+ pages? Thanks.

She's just talking about a specific book. You can have one task (I think 5 or 10?) that is 80-99 pages but all your other books should have 100 or more pages. She verifies that it is an e-book and # of pages it would be considered having.

Darn . . . unlike Killing Stalking, Following Namsoo to the Bathouse seems to only be on Lezhin Comics, which separates it into bits to receive more money. :(((

I know I've asked Lezhin Comics before (Killing Stalking, Cherry Blossoms After Winter etc.), should I just give up on using them because they won't have actual ISBN or ASIN barcodes until someone publishes them in a language that is not Korean or English? (VnV)

Webcomics must be collected and published as an ebook with an ISBN or ASIN to be used for SRC tasks.
It doesn't matter what language it is in, it must be published in an ebook or kindle format.

I'm missing something then. GR states that the book is 82 pages. If that is not what is used, can you tell me what is used to determine approval for future reference? When I click on the link in your post, its shows 82 pages. Thanks.

Each book is researched and multiple sources are checked.
post 1 says:
We cannot rely on Goodreads page number notation for ebooks without print editions without supporting information.
You should get ebooks approved for length before you read them.

Order of importance:
publisher page count
author page count
word count- 35,000 words is usually 100 pages
25,000-35000 is usually "maybe" and may be conditional
<25000 is rarely approved
I use a holistic approach and consider multiple sources. Publisher page numbers and info from authors carry more weight than retailers.
retailer page count
locations -1000 minimum

Thanks for the explanation. In all of my seasons with the challenge, this is the first e-book I read that did not have a physical counterpart. This information is very helpful and I will save it for future reference.
