HA, Yea for some reason when I highlighted 60 and typed in 90, well I seemed to get both.
DO I repost with the corrected total of 90?

Hello- I just went in to check my stats and I should have 3 Goodreads Authors up to post 600. Thanks!
Mod
You need to specifically indicate in your post that you are claiming GR authors. If you realize that you forgot to post that, you need to repost the information, giving the information about the tasks and explaining that you are reposting because you didn't claim a GR author when you first posted.
Going back and editing your old posts to include the information isn't going to solve the problem - we cannot go back and look for your old posts and add information that you have added to those posts via later edits.
Hey Sandy! I posted all the covers for GR author tickets. If you need me to post them along with their tasks, just lemme know.
Mod
task 25.9 Explosive Eighteen does not have Adventure or Thriller listed as a genre. But it does have Mystery so it still works. No need to repost
task 30.1 Bring Out Your Dead is an ebook without a print edition. Please get it verified for length then repost if approved.
This task requires a new-to-you author- Is Katie MacAlister new to you?
Mod
tasks 20.3, 20.4, 20.5- you must include a link to the book or include the title AND author to claim a completed task. Please repost with complete information
Please report completed tasks in task numer order
Mod
Task 20.2 requires only one book. You may use one of the books reported for another task
Mod
Please check your total. I get 120
5.2, 5.4, 5.5, 5.7, 5.8
20.2, 20.3, 25.1, 30.6
Mod
Please explain how your book fits option 1 of 20.4
The task said read a book from your TBR list, so it'd lose weight. :-) Is that okay?
Mod
That's fine, you just need to include info like that when you post. I'll get it this time, no need to repost.
Mod
Please check your total. In post 649 your total was 370 plus 15 in 698 equals 385

oops, sorry! 385, corrected my spreadsheet!

task 5.3 requires "point out the "round thing" Please repost with the required information
Mod
Task 25.5 requires 2 books. Please repost when the task is completed
Sorry, I posted in wrong spot. Do you want this deleted?

I'm sorry. On that task I posted 2 authors and designated the wrong one as a Goodreads author. It was Julia London that is the Goodreads author so the actual number of GR authors should stay the same. Thanks!

task 30.1 ..."</i>
Let's change "Bring Out Your Dead" to "Much Ado About Vampires" by Katie MacAlister.
[bookcover:Much Ado About Vampires
Also, it was my understanding that only 1 of the authors in that task needs to be an author new to me so for that task Susan Conant was my new author. Did I misunderstand the task regarding new to me authors or will this suffice?
Thanks so much!

30.1 requires two new-to-you authors or one new-to-you author and a follow-up book by that author that fits another of the categories.
Here's the requirement from the task:
"Your first book must be written by a new-to-you author. If you like that author, you may read another book written by that same author. If you don't like the author of the first book (or if you just want to broaden your horizons), you may pick another new-to-you author for the second book. "
Mod
It's fine, Donna Jo. No need to delete. Thanks for editing the post so I don't get confused :)

Please repost with the correct information. Thanks.
I think my total points so far is 230 not 225, but you know me, my math is not always the greatest. Thanks for all you do
Mod
It's 230, I missed one in the list. It will be corrected with the next update
Mod
Please include your Readerboard name when you post. Please repost this task
Mod
Please check your total. I have recorded 15.8, 20.3, and 20.7 for a total of 55 not 45
Your match is correct! I will edit my post.Dlmrose wrote: "Kelli R post 826

Mod
The author of Anyone But You is Jennifer Crusie, not Jennifer Cruise. Since I had seen this book posted before, I knew who you were talking about, so I was able to check that she was a GR author - if you post a link to your book, this problem won't come up.
Mod
You already claimed 20.3, but from the info you posted it looks like you meant task 20.1. I have recorded The Castaways as 20.1, please let me know if that is not correct.
Mod
task 5.3 requires "point out the "round thing" Please repost with the required information
Dlmrose wrote: "Pam post 877task 5.3 requires "point out the "round thing" Please repost with the required information"
Sorry about that. Reposted! Post 889 now
I have a question, I see that the readerboard is up to 850 posts and my score is correct at 95 points. However, I don't think my GR Author was counted and it is posted through 850. The last Gr author I read was Janet Evanovitch for post 784 and I double checked I should have 2 Gr authors including Janet Evanovich.
Mod
If you look at the readerboard, you'll see that you're listed twice, each time with 1 GRA. Just a problem with a stray number getting in one of your GRA entries, you've still got two. I'll fix the spreadsheet so that it combines your two entries.
Mod
Please check your total. The only task you have posted is 20.2, yet you list 2 tasks and a total of 40.
Mod
Is Elizabeth Reyes a new-to-you author?
30.1 requires two new-to-you authors or one new-to-you author and a follow-up book by that author that fits another of the categories.
Here's the requirement from the task:
"Your first book must be written by a new-to-you author. If you like that author, you may read another book written by that same author. If you don't like the author of the first book (or if you just want to broaden your horizons), you may pick another new-to-you author for the second book. "

So sorry about that. I reposted the Task on Post 882.
Mod
Rachel Lee's task: Where Have All the Flowers Gone? is task 25.1, please update your records. No need to repost.
Mod
Welcome back!
task 5.6 Bad Island does not appear on the Goodreads Choice Nominees for Best Graphic Novels and Comics list.
Mod
