to get image you need to put those < >
so basically your post should be <img src="" />

Copy from my post, just put your html link in it. Maybe since for me link isn't working, it doesn't show

Wendelin (Alex) | 50 comments I did... Then I realised that I used the wrong link the entire time *headdesk* That can't work of course.
Thanks again through!

I am still trying to shake off sleep, but maybe she's referring to the GR stats combined with my Read-a-Thon spreadsheet.

She meant the book stats counter thingy. She posted from her Kindle to say as much, hehe.

Steven (gallifreyan1218) | 5186 comments On a lighter note, I wish I had some cupcakes right now.

Eni | 2349 comments btw READ-A-THON HAS BEGUN!


ilovebakedgoods (Teresa) (ilovebakedgoods) | 226 comments LOL, poor Sonia! She has a lot of things she has to take care of so editing the cupcakes picture is probably not going to be instant.

Yippee. However, I'm going to go to bed right now as I have a long drive tomorrow. *sad face*

Well, her, too! Either way, I don't think the cupcake counts will be updated instantly all the time.


message 179: by Eni (new)

Eni | 2349 comments yeah that is true =p was just wondering since i did the 2 first puzzles, then joanne came and did the first 3 puzzles.. and we only have 3 cupcakes.. so was just wondering if it only counts one person per team. On puzzle 3 i know it was like that, but is it like that on the other puzzles as well?

and happy readings to y'all! <3

It's one puzzle-one cupcake per team. If two persons solve same puzzle, other one gets cookie or something like that :)

Yes, Eni, one cupcake per Team, per puzzle. However... there are cookies, boasting rights, and bad poetry for the other submitters.

Rebecca NJ (njreader) | 2120 comments But I want the bad poetry!! I even wrote my own for when I posted Puzzle #4 :)

Okay. Let me restate that. I want a cupcake for my team (and the bad poetry for myself).

PUZZLE #5


Too tired to post them... but pretend the Captains & Co-Captains' avatars are here. �

This one is MUCH harder, so take your time. Do it when you need a break from reading.

You have until the end of the Read-a-Thon.

You can submit it as a Team, or send your best player to collect your cupcake.

Thank you, Test Bunny ❶İձ❶, for proofing. BTW, her name is on there twice.

Please DO NOT post solution here. Mail to [email protected]

~ Captains & Co-Captains' Names ~

Turtlecollector Dennis | 1164 comments If Tea proofed it, does that mean Cerulean already has a cupcake, or should someone else do it as well?

Yes, Rebecca, I saw that...
and thought it was cute.
Should put it to music
to be played on the flute.

Rumpydog's Cookie Poem found at


My favorite thing’s the cookie.
It fills me with delight and glee.
I’ll sit or lie down
Or follow you ’round
In hopes that you’ll give one to me.

It's possible that program didn't use it since it's only two letters.

Alas, Steven... ❀Oo❀ is NOT a Captain. I asked, and she declined. She'd make an excellent one! However, she is some sort of cheer-leading organizer.
