I had listed my total as 255 in post #999 but recalculated & it should be 265. I'm showing the same tasks as you've listed above. Does your total match 265?
Mod
It does!
Mod
Please check your total; 220 on 12/26 plus 20 = 240
Mod
Please repost and include your Readerboard name.
Since you are the only Keltie in the challenge you may want to change your Readerboard name from "Keltie Lee" to "Keltie". If so, you will need to request it in Readerboard Names.
Please understand that it took us months to sort out the Readerboard and Readerboard names. We need to keep names and reporting consistent to be fair to everyone

Sorry. Will do :)
Hi mods... I think I am missing my 25 points from post 976, which would give me a total of 395 points. This is from completing task 25.7 (Name Train). I can't find any mention of me on this thread to indnicate I did something wrong.Could you check this for me? Much appreciated! If I am simply a poor math student (altogether possible), please forgive me.
Mod
Sorry, I missed it. It's fixed now, it will be corrected with the next update. (I must have gotten sidetracked by Susan Ee, I remember I checked out her unusual name)

Please claim GR authors/big books in the main part of your post with the task you're claiming it for, not in the midst of your totals at the bottom.

Oops, sorry. And I thought I'd double checked all criteria. I even had it on my spreadsheet. I'll repost.
According to my math (rusty and unreliable as it may be) I should only have 55 points instead of the 80 I'm credited with on the Readerboard. I just wanted to make sure someone else wasn't getting shut out of their points!

Argh. Thought I was so careful this time. Ok... will reallocate and try again this w/e. Apologies and Happy New Year.
Mod
I bet that's where Meghanly's 25 points went when I got distracted!
Thanks for letting me know!

The Readerboard shows you with 6 GRA tickets. Perhaps you're getting confused with the BB tickets?

Oops! I did. So very sorry - I'm wrapped up in
Before I Go to Sleep and got confused.
That will teach me to read while looking at the Readerboard! :)
Mod
Just an FYI - you only can claim 1 GR author ticket per book, even if both co-authors are GR authors.
Mod
no need to edit anything - just for your information and records.
Mod
Please do not go back and edit completed task posts. Post 630 was missing your Readerboard name when it was reviewed.
task 30.4 requires "one of the books you read must have been published for the first time in or before 1975. The other should be first published after 1975."
The books you claimed were published in 2007 and 2009
