Trisha | 6090 comments Is it terrible that I'm scared to post a book completion for fear or ruining our whole board 😭😭

This challenge feels stressful!!🤣😂


message 15: by Saige (new)

Saige (lannister807) | 3377 comments Mod
Ya, I sorta wish we did get clues like the real game so we could at least attempt to dodge the assassin, lol

LOL I felt the exact same way when I was posting my first book!!!


message 17: by Claire (new)

Claire  | 499 comments I have 2 questions: I finished a book I can use, but it’s only 192 p. Should I use it?
And how do I know what the most popular edition is? Is it the first one that appears?

Yes! Use it!
and yes, the popular one is typically the first one that comes up - but you can also "see all editions" and it will be the top one on that list

Claire  | 499 comments Thank you dear Trisha!


message 20: by Ashlyn (new)

Ashlyn | 5984 comments It says that we get the same words/cards to complete as the other team. Now I’m questioning if we should let them figure out who the assassin is first 🤔

Yeah, I actually didn't do that. My bad! So every team has their own cards.

Adding Berra to the team everyone!


message 23: by Toshita (new)

Toshita (toshibarve) | 393 comments LOL can you believe we found the Assassin already 🤣


message 24: by Brittni (new)

Brittni | 1230 comments Hi everyone. Excited to be on the team!

I've never played codenames so I'm not overly familiar with the game but I have read the rules for this challenge. Please correct me if I'm wrong...

We're just picking a word that works with our finished read and hoping it's not the assassin? Because there are no clues I'm getting the impression that there's no real way to know which words are which colour and it's just a guessing game.

I've finished my first book this month and don't want to make a mistake posting haha. Thanks!

This is correct! It's just a guessing game. And we guessed way wrong first round, lol


message 26: by Brittni (new)

Brittni | 1230 comments Great. Thanks!

I've just moved all the words from the new game to the sheet. I figure this way we can easily see which words are taken. I think it makes sense but let me know if anyone feels differently.


message 27: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6090 comments Thank you so much Brittni!


message 28: by Saige (new)

Saige (lannister807) | 3377 comments Mod
That's actually so so helpful, ty!


message 29: by Brittni (new)

Brittni | 1230 comments Darn. Looks like I managed to find the assassin haha.

I'll move the words over for the new sheet again to make it easier.


message 30: by Claire (new)

Claire  | 499 comments We’re good in finding assassins 😂


message 31: by Saige (new)

Saige (lannister807) | 3377 comments Mod
Yeah we don't have a great hit rate with these

message 33: by Ashlyn (new)

Ashlyn | 5984 comments Watch with our luck, I just posted for the assassin after we haven’t gotten it out of all the other books. Hopefully we didn’t though 🤞


message 34: by Saige (new)

Saige (lannister807) | 3377 comments Mod
If we keep getting the assassin out of sheer chance, then my (poorly remembered) high school probability knowledge says that, one day, we'll also avoid it out of sheer chance. So there is hope!


message 35: by Saige (new)

Saige (lannister807) | 3377 comments Mod
Omg I can't believe we actually finished one!


message 36: by Ashlyn (new)

Ashlyn | 5984 comments Sorry, I’ve been a little MIA, but I posted a bunch of books to the banked tab.


message 37: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6090 comments awe, no worries! I hope everything is okay!


message 38: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6090 comments I was so scared posting 5 books at one time . . . 😭😂🤣


message 39: by Saige (new)

Saige (lannister807) | 3377 comments Mod
Ashlyn, I posted a few of your ones from banked just using letters in title. Hopefully none of them are a bad guess


message 40: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6090 comments Thank you Saige!


message 41: by Ashlyn (new)

Ashlyn | 5984 comments Thanks! And yes, just started 40 hour work week late last month and it’s definitely kicking my butt, especially with everyone going on vacation and I’m like the only person who covers for everyone, so I’ve basically been doing two people’s jobs almost every day (I cover for four different people’s jobs). I definitely preferred the 35 hours a week instead when other people are working too 😂


message 42: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6090 comments Ack! I hope that gets easier soon! that sounds rough!


message 43: by Saige (new)

Saige (lannister807) | 3377 comments Mod
Oof, you're so kind to cover for people but I'm sorry it's kicking your butt! Hopefully things will chill out soon


message 44: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6090 comments Okay, I finished posting Ashlyn's banked books!

🤞🏼🤞🏼 eeeee! hopefully I didn't find the assassin so early! lol


message 45: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6090 comments 😭😭 I just keep finding the assassin! uuuugh

We'd be crushing the challenge if the task was to find the assassin 😂😂


message 47: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6090 comments I got our banked books out on the board. hopefully I didn't find our assassin! lol


message 48: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6090 comments * correction - a duplicate word was posted so I removed one of the books and put it back in the bank so we didn't have one kicked back.


message 49: by Alaina (new)

Alaina (ameserole) | 80137 comments Mod
FYI, current codename tabs for each team have been updated. The following columns, J-K, will now look like:

Column J, BR/BOTM/None—New dropdown menu for your books.
Column K, BR/BOTM Points—Now calculates both BR and BOTM points accordingly.

Thanks, Jessica, for helping with the formula!
