The post I made basically gave it all from the start. So you can just clear my score and use this post to start me over from 0, if that helps. Off the top of my head, I think I just took the Narnia books I read for other tasks and moved them to the 50 point task. I don't recall which tasks I took them from, but I can try to figure it out if you need it.

Please let me know if you need more specifics.

Task 15.6 requires you to state which novel inspired your choice. Please repost this task including the required information."

Reposted on 2086, sorry about that.

[Kate]

I just left post 2201. Please let me know if this is sufficient. I haven't had to move books around after posting them before.

Thanks.

I'll let you know when I get there, Kate. Thanks. I'm a little behind after a 3-day weekend out on the water with no internet. But, I'll get there eventually ;o)....

Task 20.6 requires that you read at least 400 pages. The book you claimed has less than 400 pages. You may read multiple books from series to add up to 400 pages if you want. This can be multiple books from the same series, or books from different series.

Please repost this task when all of the requirements have been met. When reposting, include all of the required books. Records of partially completed tasks are not kept. Thanks!

KSMary- post 2137

Sara Gruen and Matt Haig are not Goodreads authors.

[KSMary]

Sorry about that. I must have had them marked wrong on my spreadsheet when I switched some things around. Do I need to repost?

Ashley Fl- post 2276

It's not a problem to catch up on Goodreads Author or Big Book tickets, but in the future please include the post number in Completed Tasks where you claimed the books.
No need to repost this time

Thanks

[Jennifer]

I think you need to remove 2 Goodreads Authors from my total, since I had moved 2 Simone Elkeles books to a different task. Thanks.

Ooops. Thank you. I will try to solve it as I dont remember now:( and I didnt write in my notes (silly girl). If I manage then I repost.

Sorry, I should have researched that better. I will repost as a groupread.

Don't know how I missed that. I've reposted in post #2317.

Just saw this posting. I'll read a different one and move Matched when I'm finished. I didn't want you to think I missed this. Thanks!

Kristen MA -- post 2483

Sara Shepard will not work for task 20.5. Sara and Shepard start with different sounds (Sara with an "s" as in "so" and Shepard with an "sh" sound as in "ship") and are not alliterative.

[Kristina Simon]

Katie OH -- post 2484

Task 30.7 requires that the books be from different authors. So Cooking Up Murder and Murder on the Menu won't work.

[Kristina Simon]

Jayme VA -- post 2495

Task 10.2 requires a book with “who,” “what,” “when,” “where,” “why,” or “how” in the title. Cuba will not work.

[Kristina Simon]

Jayme VA -- post 2496

Task 30.5 requires you to post your birth day. You do not need to post your complete birthday, only the date, i.e. 3rd or 20th. Please repost this task with the missing information. Thanks!

Queen Victoria and Victoria's Daughters won't work for 30.7. The words must be identical.

@Kristi

I noticed that the Readerboard is updated to post 2650, but my points from post 2646 is not updated on the readerboard. Thanks.

[Wendy UK]

Hi Kristi

I think you missed my post 2650 - I should have 715 points.

[Bea]

I should have 3 big books listed: Degree of Guilt - post #369, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban - post #425, and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - post #1806.

[Bea]

I failed to claim GR authors for two books already posted: Katharine Weber for Triangle in post #751 and Jennifer Weiner for Good in Bed in post #2315. Do I need to re-post these?

[Dlmrose, Moderator Emeritus]

Yes, please put them in completed tasks. I fixed your missing # above.

Same issue, post 2644. I should have 315 points.
Thanks!

[Patricia]

Same boat here, post 2641. Should be 425 points. Thanks.

[Kristina Simon]

That's because someone has gone in and deleted about 8 messages. Now that they've been deleted, the Readerboard is in actuality only updated through post 2642 (and all the numbering in my spreadsheet is completely screwed up). This is why we don't want people deleting their posts. Points claimed after post 2642 will be picked up this evening.

Oh! That might explain why all the post numbers I was looking up for my Big Books posts and GR Authors posts were not correct! And, I thought it was me!!! 'Course it could still be. :)

[Kristina Simon]

No, it's not just you, Bea ;o).

OK, we should be back up to 2650 again.

[Dlmrose, Moderator Emeritus]

Since my Goodreads Authors and Big Book spreadsheet numbers are all messed up too, I'll wait until the 2700 Readerboard update to post an update. I think (hope!) that will put it back on track.

Kristi (Passion for the Page) wrote: "No, it's not just you, Bea ;o).

I think I'm still not being counted for my post 2641. I should have 425 points from that post. Must be so confusing and annoying for you with deleted entries. Thanks for all the hard work.

Actually, I got post 2641 but I'd missed an earlier one. Because the numbers are messed up, I'm having trouble figuring out why that post got skipped (it was the one with task 20.7 in it). But, whatever, it's fixed ;o).

Task 20.6 requires you to read at least 400 pages. The Hunger Games only has 384 pages. You will need to add another book to it to meet the page requirements. Please repost this task when you've done so. No need to repost any of the others, they have been recorded.

[Kristina Simon]

Lisa MD -- post 2748

Task 10.1 requires a professional musician or music teacher. From the GRs description, it does not appear that Lucy Gayheart fits either one of these requirements. Can you provide more information?
