[Vivian]

For some reason, I knew I'd see a bouncing Alyssa in here ;)

I've been neglecting my books, count me in! LOVE the new rule, great addition to the game.

[Carlyn]

I would LOVE to play!

[Kari]

I would love to join in as a newbie :) Also, on your list of participants you are missing number 44.... I don't know if that matters but I thought I would mention it!

[Valerie ~ Val Hall ~]

I am so wanting to play! Count me in!

[GinBee]

Hi, I'd like to join in please :-)

[Jessica]

This sounds like a lot of fun. I'd like to play!

[Deidre]

I'd like to play, and I read everything and I am still confused...But I want to play anyway!

[Valerie ~ Val Hall ~]

Deidre, it looks more complicated than it is. I was confused too when I participated on round 4 and it was so much fun. Just go with the flow.

[Barbara ★]

I am involved this season with the SRC challenge so I'm not sure I can play this round but you can put me down as an alternate so that if you don't get enough players, I can fill in.

Bouncing is pretty fun. I can't help it when I get excited.

It's also contagious. :-D

If someone gives me a margarita, I may be able to stop for a bit. No promises though.

I think that might make me bounce more! :)

[Christina (AKA Babbling)]

I'm sitting this one out, but I do have a question (and I'm asking on behalf of the new players):

Last round there was a minimum page requirement -- will that be the case for this round (and all future rounds)?

[Nici]

me me me! oh i wanna play!

[Alyssa]

*looks at Nici* I think we have another bouncer. :-D

[Lisa]

I would like to play. It will be my first time.

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Wonderful! So many newbies interested, I love it! Not to worry, it's SO much easier than I can explain in writing. Your teammates will help you along the way, but if you happen to get on a team entire composed of newbies each of us mods are happy to answer any questions at anytime. :)

Kari ~ thanks for the catch; I'll fix it as I add players.

Deidre ~ I love your enthusiasm. I promise it'll be easy to play.

Barbara ~ Thanks! I'll add you to the stand-by list.

Christina ~ We'll miss ya this round. Hope you'll be able to join us in the future.

Yes; there is a minimum page requirement of 200 pgs. I've revised and updated the Q&A page. All players should read through it before we start. Pls let me know if you have any questions that are not listed there.

I've got everyone through Lisa (post #85) signed up as requested.

[Cathy]

I would love to play again!

[Valerie ~ Val Hall ~]

@Steph: mmmm....there is 2 Valerie in the list...not that I mind but.

Oh sad Barbara! You should do it anyway. I did last season and I would just maneuver around some of my books and find a spot it would fit in. Or try to read one that I was planning anyway. It really is a great way to challenge yourself. I was able to fit each book last season into a spot that I hadn't read yet. Unless of course you plan to finish the SRC challenge, then I would have no idea how you even see the light of day :)

[Sallie(GeorgiaGirl)]

I would love 2 play please add me

[♡ Sassy ~ Amy ♡]

Yes! for sure!!

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Gotcha - Cathy, Sallie & Amy. :)

No worries, Val, I track everyone by their post # and will determine the dups after I shuffle. When I create the team threads, I'll note by the dups which post # I am referring to. So, you (and some others) will need to note what your sign-up post # is (IE: you are Valerie#74), then look for your name and that # on the team thread. Hope that makes sense.

[Lizz (Beer, Books and Boos)]

I'm in if there is room

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Gotcha, Lizz. :)

[Lizz (Beer, Books and Boos)]

Awesome

[Steph, Serious series addict]

:D

[JenniferJ]

OMG I have been waiting patiently for this to begin again! I have slacked off my reading so badly without this to give me motivation!

Count me in to Play please. :)

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Thanks for your patience, JenniferJ. :) I've added you to the list.

[Suzanne]

I signed up in the discussion but my name is not on the list and I haven't received an event invite. Did I miss it?

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Hi, Suzanne! Sorry for the oversight. You and I posted at the same time, so I missed your initial sign-up post #55. I'll add you to the player list right now. Please go ahead and RSVP on the event now. I haven't sent out the invite, but created it for players to RSVP now. After a couple of days, I will "invite" those players who haven't yet RSVP'd.

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Please sign me up, too! (new player)
