I barely beat you, at 1:55.

I did ShoSho's 20 piece classic in 2:02.

I tried the USA and walked away...instead I did the 79 piece stars 13:21. And now I'm seeing stars, LOL!

Oh, I haven't tried stars yet.

I did Rebecca's in the USA cut too. It was a little hard, but a lot of fun! My time was 4:47. (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)]

Stars are tough - and it's bad because I have so much white on my bookshelf. I need to find books with more colorful covers.

I tried the USA and walked off. I don't know the shapes that much.

I tried the 35 piece Jig zone and that was ok. I did in 4:41. I need to invest in a mouse (or so I tell myself)

Puzzles are fun!

Where did you get all those doublets from? I must have more, LOL!

And I know there are word search generators around but which ones do you like to use? I'm silly and want to create my own word searches of book titles or whatever just for fun, lol.

And I have not been able to find a mixed-up cover tile/scramble thingy like the one you posted for A Discovery of Witches -- where could i find something like that??

Thanks :)

I bought a program that makes them. But, some of them aren't that great, as there are a lot of adjectives. Hard to come up with a definition without giving the word away.

The tile scrabble one took me forever to find. I wrote it down, but can't find that piece of paper of the website.

Yes, you do! LOL!

Yes, that would help, I would think.

Oh, okay. I bet I could find some random doublet generators or lists or something online somewhere if I tried hard enough. Thanks!

Yes, there are a couple, but they want you to download a bunch of other of their programs.

May I have a volunteer to double check my total column on the ?

Oh... and one more thing... a little hint about the cupcakes...

(view spoiler)[28 Puzzles. Don't you find it interesting that the number divides so nicely by seven? (hide spoiler)]

ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý

LK, I count 19 for Electric Lime and 7 for Blast Off Bronze, and the rest are correct. :)

I changed all cupcakes and names to "1" and then did a sum formula to get those totals. Doubled checked the original spreadsheet to make sure I didn't skip any cupcakes in EL and BOB

I still only get 8 for B-o-B.

Totals diagonally across per each team all good, except #8, you have 21 cupcakes and I've counted it 3 times and only see 19 (Electric Lime Team)

Now I only get 7 for B-o-B. LOL!

Okay, Cathie. What about Blast Off Bronze? 7? 8?

Totally what I meant (7 for Bronze)

Hmmm, 28 puzzles, divided by 7 = 4 book advantage points? :D

Okay. Changed B-o-B to 7. Thanks, Steven & Cathie. �

Hmmmm... maybe. But do you think I'm going to make it that straight-forward?

nop i don't. and i was just wondering about the cupcakes and how you never said anything about them again =O

I was going to save it for June 1st, but people were getting so stressed over the challenge. So... I thought I'd give you a hint. �

Yep, only 7 for BOB ~ sorry missed that (all these eyes and we can't see the forest for the trees, lol).

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeep nobody delivered puzzle 28 for tickle me pink? T_T damit! i thought we had all of them T_T

Yeah, I checked it several times and I was going cross-eyed, Cathie. LOL!

I can double check, Eni. If you can figure out who I'm looking for. LOL!

I'm out of guesses if it's less straight-forward than that. X)

"All will be revealed..."

Plus, there will be more opportunities for cupcakes.

Yay!!! More cupcakes!

My brain just isn't functioning enough today to think of more ideas! :P

Three-day week-end coming up for you, Steven?

Yes, THANK THE BOOK GODS! :D

LMBO! Okay.

ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý

� There will be more opportunities to get cupcakes though-out the year.

� For the 7% Solution Challenge, seven cupcakes = can replace
ÌýÌýÌý any book needed in any of the categories. If you use 7 cupcakes to replace one book,
ÌýÌýÌýthen you only need to read 48 more books as a Team.

� Captains, when you submit your finished category, just indicate you are using seven of
ÌýÌýÌýyour cupcakes by posting "Seven " in the appropriate spot.

Are you ready for more? Because I do NOT want to overwhelm you, but there is more good news.

Take a deep, cleansing breath; let it out; clear your brain.

If there are seven Captains who want to hear more, let me know. Otherwise, I’ll wait to tell you the rest on June 1st.

You decide.

I'm a captain and I want to know more!

Well, that's one cupcake Captain. Any more?

Captain 2 wanting to know more :)

Two cupcakes Captains. Anyone else?

I'm more than willing to be called Cupcake Captain haha

LOL!

How about Captain Cupcake?

haha okay

I wonder what that makes me?
