Q&A Thread
Review Thread

**The SS was not made for planning purposes. The reason everyone has a SS is because each week when you put your books into the columns it will tally up how many points you've gotten that week so far so you will always know how close to reaching the goal your team is. The box that has a zero in it above the 'total' column is where you'll see your weekly weight lose so far. It adds up all of the total points for each book put in there. Obvi, as long as everyone adds their books when they've finished. Your team cannot put books in there that haven't been reviewed on the review thread. Otherwise your point tally will be incorrect. The SS is for finished books. Not books planned.

Let me know if anyone is going to be co-captain.

Please check in by January 1st! :D

Just so everyone knows, I tried to make these teams as even as I could with how many books per month were said by each member. If we have people that sign up before January 1st that will seriously upset the balance, I'll be moving people around to make everyone fit the best way I can.

After January 1st, I will not be moving anyone around. (:

Hi!

I'm okay being co captain. :)

Gotcha. :D

So I have quite a few books planned for the next few months. I don't know how many I will get to but I'm going to try my best to get to them all. Anyone want to BR any of the books on this shelf? I have set dates in mind for some so I might not be able to be flexible.

/review/list...

I added a planned read section to the SS for us. Just for week one though. We'll see if we like it before adding it to the other weeks.

Adding Jamie, moved her from Sapphire.

Me Jamie or the other Jamie?

I'm pretty sure you. But it's good to ask.

I think so too but yes just a double check

Jamie TKR didn’t sign up. So you. 😁

Ahh okay. I wasn’t sure. thanks!

YAY! We are on the same team! ^_^

Hi everyone! Looking forward to this challenge. And than you Bookbuyer for adding the planned reads to the spreadsheet! I'll look through your books to see if I am planning on any of them.

Hi Jenny!

NP. I'm learning about SS's right now and I'm an eager learner. :)

YAY!

Forgot to add my BR in the SS so I added it. ^-^

I'm up for the Anita Blake books - I've read 1 and 2, but I'm up for all the others...

I'm also up for

Awesome. I'm hoping to read most of the Anita Blake in January. It's a long series though so it might take me into Feb.

Except for Immortal Girls and A Mark Unwilling I have very specific dates and more general dates. Is that okay?

Yes that's fine. I'm totally flexible with book read dates.

Jammin Jenny wrote: "Yes that's fine. I'm totally flexible with book read dates."

Awesome. I'm just adding in the books to my SS now to get it all organized and then I'll post the dates here. :)

For the Anita Blake books I say we start on the 2nd of Jan and just keep it open and active. How fast do you read? Cause some of them are quite long. :)

As for A Mark Unwilling and Immortal Girls I can do the 2nd and 3rd of Jan. Both are short. :)

I read about 40 books/month. Sounds good to just keep open Anita Blake for the whole time of the challenge. That way others can join us too if they want to read Anita Blake.

The other two sound good too. I'll mark them down in my plan.

Awesome! I'm hoping to read at least that much as well. We shall see. I have it all planned out just have to read it. :P

Perfect. I'll ask for the thread. :)

I am just winging most of my books this coming year, as much as I can.

Jamie wrote: "I am just winging most of my books this coming year, as much as I can."

I'm going the opposite way.

Decided to make a separate sheet for planning. We can use it for all three months now. :)

Haha. I have been struggling to enjoy what I read slately so just whatever fits my mood. I do have a list of options that sound the best, fit other challenges or are a priority for me but that is about it. I have a few BRs planned over at YA and that is it so far. But as I pick up a book I will let everyone know. Honestly not sure how much SS tracking we need for this challenge though since it is so open.

Done working on it if anyone wants to add anything. :)

Yeah but we need to know if we are going to meet our monthly point goal of 2500.

Participants will be split into teams, as evenly as possible. Each team will start off with a weight of 7,500 page points to lose. That doesn’t mean pages, we are talking about the page points!

Plus I'm bored. We can always delete the planning thread later on if need be.

I've become a bit obsessive with SS's lately. I like to make them as complex as I'm able and really pretty.

Where'd you go?

Bookbuyer wrote: "Plus I'm bored. We can always delete the planning thread later on if need be."

No I don't mean that. I just mean tracking it weekly. I am just curious how needed all those tabs will be. Planning is fine for those that are doing so. Sometimes I have more planned and the few I do I will add later.

I think it's because it's the first team quarterly challenge and the mods want it to go well. They want to make sure no one disappears or isn't pulling their weight. :)

Fair enough there :)

Plus unless the mods need the SS we can always tailor it to our needs. :)

I just ate. lol. We eat about the same time although this is late for me. I was just hungry. :P

Bookbuyer wrote: "Plus unless the mods need the SS we can always tailor it to our needs. :)"

Haha I am not too worried. Just no one be surprised if I suck at adding stuff to it. But I will at least keep chattign here and updating this. Ooh I am hoping for a fun, productive start to the New Year. SO ready to be done with this one and start fresh. Excited for these new challenges.

My eat times are all over the place. Like about to go eat in a few tonight but tomorrow night I wont have dinner until after midnight. Work has always messed with food times but now even more so.

I'm also going to suck. I'm great a planning horrible at follow through. At least this is a three month challenge so each month I'll have a fresh burst of energy.

Me too!

Same!!!!! The year can't end fast enough for me. I can't use most of my pretty SS until the new year and it's like having to wait to play with a shiny new toy!!

I'm usually the same although not because of my own personal schedule but rather my mom's schedule. Been trying to fix that. Not succeeding much this week though. :/

Gotta love how schedules can mess with things. Anyways. Time to eat and watch a movie. Be back on later. :)

Same. ^-^
