LOL! Thankfully he's supportive of my occasional affairs with Mr. R. ;)

Yes, sorry. But, with 15 teams I'm not sure I'll always have time to c/p on all. I know how anxious everyone gets each Sunday. So, instead, I'll be posting HERE (on this thread) saying "shelf is up" with a link to the shelf announcement page with the shelf name & direct link. Y'all are usually pacing around here anyhoo, so I hope that is cool with everyone.

Sandra | 25908 comments Makes perfect sense to me :D


message 256: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments I think that is definitely the better way to go.


message 257: by Vivian (new)

Vivian (_vivian) | 1934 comments Oh good. I was wondering how long it would take to pop into every team's thread each week for shelf announcements! Off to browse :)


message 258: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Thanks for understanding. :D

Carlyn | 466 comments Hey does anyone know Jeann? She is in Team 1 but we haven't heard anything from her yet?


message 260: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments Carlyn, Jeann is one of my friends, just had a look, she's from Brisbane.

You may not know but the SE of Qld & most of Nthn NSW is under flood, not to say that it is affecting her, but it may be. I do know that a few thousand people have been evacuated, but not I think in QLD.

If not it was our weekend? Maybe try pming her to let her know"


I'll try to find her :)

Cee | 180 comments We have another missing person in group #7, has anyone heard anything from Taly? She hasn't checked in with us yet


Jeann (Happy Indulgence)  (happyindulgence) | 1151 comments I'm here! Thanks for checking on me Sandy and the pm Carolyn, been looking forward to playing for ages :)

Oh, no problem. It made sense to me that you wouldn't be posting in 15 threads this time. ;-) I was peeking in on the others and it seemed to me that not everyone realized you made a change this round. I figured, those who didn't visit this thread much, or often, (now that the game has officially started) wouldn't realize you posted it here either.

Valerie ~ Val Hall ~ | 9661 comments Anyone know what this is about in the stamp me thread:
Team Captains, please include a direct link* to your team's weekly read list. ??????

How and where? In the team thread?


message 267: by Sherri (last edited Feb 05, 2012 07:35AM) (new)

Sherri | 781 comments Team Captains, please include a direct link* to your team's weekly read list. ??????

I'm guessing Valerie, that providing the direct link to the team's list will save Steph time when verifying that all members have competed their reviews. That way she doesn't have to hunt in the posts for them. But we'll let her chime in on the final answer.


message 268: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments Yep. Just copy the URL by right-clicking on the time stamp of the post for the list of the finished shelf's books and paste that with your stamp request.

Steph said: This will allow me to quickly check to make sure all members have indeed read, rated, and reviewed their book.

So, your weekly list should include team members' books, and the post number of their review (which has their completion date & rating). Some captains add the rating & date completed to the weekly post, too (I always did...kind of like having it all neat and tidy in one place).

Let me know if you don't hear from her today and I'll send her a PM. Thanks, Celine.


message 270: by Cee (new)

Cee | 180 comments Taly checked in yesterday, so we're finally complete (: Yay!


message 271: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Yay! Glad to hear it! Thanks for the update, Celine.


message 272: by Vi (new)

Vi | 943 comments To the great powers that be, please help us change our team name from Five Diving Divas to Five Divining Divas. Our My electronic devices doesn't seem to like Divining and it auto-corrects me.


message 273: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments BSB elves have fixed it for ya, Vi. Hate those auto-corrects. ;)


message 274: by Vi (new)

Vi | 943 comments Yep, Sandra fixed it for us. The silent enforcer :P

Midu Hadi | 1732 comments BSB elves, when will we get the next shelf?

Shelves are announced Sunday (Japan time), which roughly translate to "Sometime Saturday" for the US. :D


message 282: by Midu (new)

Midu Hadi | 1732 comments and sunday for Pakistan?


Christina (AKA Babbling) (babblingbookreviews) | 1242 comments Midu wrote: "and sunday for Pakistan?"

I think so. I was just trying to figure out the time difference. You are a few hours behind Japan, yes?


message 284: by Midu (new)

Midu Hadi | 1732 comments Its 5:30 pm here


Christina (AKA Babbling) (babblingbookreviews) | 1242 comments And it's roughly 9:30 pm in Japan, according to my world clock at the office. So, if she were to post it, say, 9:30AM, it would be 5:30AM for you. I think. :D


message 286: by Midu (new)

Midu Hadi | 1732 comments Cool! Thanks, Christina.


Christina (AKA Babbling) (babblingbookreviews) | 1242 comments Midu wrote: "Cool! Thanks, Christina."

You're welcome! :)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments Looking forward to today's shelf announcement!


Valerie ~ Val Hall ~ | 9661 comments Do we have exactly one week to get our stamp?


message 290: by Vivian (new)

Vivian (_vivian) | 1934 comments You have as long as the game lasts to get a stamp, you just don't want to let the books pile up week after week :)


message 291: by Leah (new)

Leah | 880 comments Shelf Announcement Day, YAY!! I'll wait to go to the library until after the shelf is called.

Anyone else bumming around the house today waiting for a shelf announcement?

Yep. :) Yesterday I was worried that I'd have to go to the library early, check out a few books, and hope for the best because of snow, but it turned out to be nothing to worry about (seriously, there was a dusting and it's all gone now). Now, we waaaaait...

It's cold here and I have a cold- the only thing cheering me up is waiting for the shelf announcement.

D.G. | 2752 comments Looking forward to the shelf announcement!

I'm in a good position because I just finished a book and I'm almost done with my audio so I should be able to start right away. :)


message 295: by ★Meghan★ (new)

★Meghan★ (starinheaven) | 541 comments I am looking forward to the shelf announcement. I am excited to see what it will be. Is it sad that I am waiting by the computer at work waiting for the announcement? That way I can pick out the book by the time I get home. Or drop by B&N and get a book. (Don't get off until 6p today.) It is snowing fairly nasty here. Really late for here (Colorado). But then again it has been mostly going around the two cities I live and work in (Pueblo and Colorado). Denver got hit hard last week and in December or January south of Pueblo got hit extremely hard. I just wish I had these two days off so I could stay under the covers and read all day :)


message 296: by D.G. (new)

D.G. | 2752 comments The winter has been great in NYC so far this year. Most of the time, the temperature has been over 40.


message 297: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments Chicago also.


message 298: by Rosina (new)

Rosina | 1714 comments I am stalking the threads waiting for a shelf to be called. This is like waiting for the next episode in a really good show.

Going out for Indian food and then home to see if we have a shelf.

The wait is driving me wild.


message 299: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments I love Indian food --- enjoy!


message 300: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Our next shelf announcement is up ~ 'ghosts'
Happy Reading, Everyone!


Hope everyone has a great weekend! :D
