Thanks Sarah! Now go get some well deserved rest! We've been keeping you busy I am sure. :)

If there is a book with an edition of more no. of pages but it is not available in English, can we still use it to claim points.
Eg., The Sun Is Also A Star has an edition with 484 pages but this edition isn't in English language.
Can we use this edition to claim more points? Here's the link to the particular edition I am talking about:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
Sorry for asking so many questions.

Seeing a few folks posting more than once on the bonus fairy thread between visits so thought I'd share a friendly reminder...

* Each person may only comment once on the thread between visits from the bonus fairy.
* If a person comments more than once, their comments will be removed.

Don't want folks to lose their chance but didn't want to comment twice myself. :)

Hi Riddhi ☺

Yes, that's fine ☺ You can use the edition with the highest page count, with the following restrictions:
- no ibook/iphone editions
- no audiobooks
- no books where the page count is more than double the next highest (so if an edition has 1000 pages, but all the other editions range from 100 to 200, then we wouldn't accept the 1000 page edition)

Hope that helps ☺

Thank you Carrie ☺ I have deleted a couple of duplicated comments, but in reality I should delete both comments if people have commented more than twice between draws.

I think people are used to being chatty around here and don't even realize so figured it was worth a mention to hopefully help them out. :)

If I’m using a book for page points in every reading challenge should I post it in each challenge?

Carrie your last comment cracked me up on the fairy thread. I wanted to reply there so badly. Poor Peter Pan.

Hi Slytherpuff, the only way you can claim points in each individual challenge is to post it on the review thread for that challenge. We aren't able to do all the points together at this point I'm afraid. So yes, you'll have to post it on each thread to claim points for each challenge.

There have, but I think that one is my favorite so far.

Haha just trying to be creative and have fun with it, and that one actually worked. :)

I tried a little at first. Stepping up my game in this next one. But no threats...Yet.

Jamie - your message now reminds me of what I keep wanting to say every time I go post. When my sister was little and we were out camping we used to feed the raccoons marshmallows and one night she was saying here kitty kitty I have a marshmallow for kitty kitty and we look up and see she's calling a skunk! So yeah, now I want to say here fairy fairy I have a marshmallow for fairy fairy. :)

LOL!

I was going to ask where one of my comments went but figured it out. Sorry about that Sarah. :)

Yeah XD The Lottery one right. Sarah must've deleted

I forgot if you comment more than once you get your second comment deleted. It's just easier to reply on that thread. :/

Yeah XD Algood it stops random chat

Yup. ^-^

Yeah, sorry guys, I have to delete comments if someone has made more than one between draws ☺

NP. Was just wondering for a sec why it was deleted. Then realized why. ^-^

That's fine :D

Going to post my reviews on Wednesday or Thursday when I get home

Goodreads is being very crashy. :(

It was driving me nuts last night! So slow!

Sarah wrote: "It was driving me nuts last night! So slow!"

At least it seems to be working now. It hasn't even been a week since it last crashed. :(

It went down for ages last week sometime didn't it? Think I couldn't get on for at least 6 hours.

Sarah wrote: "It went down for ages last week sometime didn't it? Think I couldn't get on for at least 6 hours."

I think it was the 31st/1st. I was really worried it would affect the end/beginning of the challenge. Thank god I was able to get all my reviews in though.

It makes it tough when you have a time limit and the site's not working!

Sarah wrote: "It makes it tough when you have a time limit and the site's not working!"

Yup. Plus it always drives me a little nuts. I am on almost every hour for at least a few minutes so when it's down for a long time it freaks me out.

It is annoying.

Sarah wrote: "It is annoying."

Yup.

I never have these crashes XD

Maddison wrote: "I never have these crashes XD"

Lucky! -.-

XD But then I'm not on that much.

Maddison wrote: "XD But then I'm not on that much."

You seem to always be on lol. :P

XD Yeah that's true. But then why aren't I getting crashes.

YAY! Thank you Riddhi!!

Funny, I just sent a message a few minutes ago for that spot.

Thanks Sarah.

I just checked and Riddhi's comment is timed at 3 minutes before your message, so she did comment first ☺ I can add you to the waiting list if you would like, but if you do swap to a serious team we will have to then look for someone to fill your place on your medium team. Do you want to be added to the waiting list?

Okay ☺
