To make it easier for me, please make a quick post here to sign up for the Toppler.

I think I want to do the toppler - I've never had to sign up for a challenge before though, so I have no idea what this entails!

Gail wrote: "Ah, does it involve teamwork?"Indeed! And fighting to be on the best team
Me me me me me me me me me Please :D
This seems quite different from any challenge I've done! When do we find out what we have to do?
Yes, I'm in! Took the whole week off (well, not just for the Toppler, but also because the children have autumn-holiday)! Long live computergames and dvd's :)...
If ever I'm not signed up for a toppler, will someone please remind me? I'm always ready, but sometimes I forget. :)And, yes. I'm in!

Ah, good that you just put that last sentence in - I was just about to remind you! ;)

*snicker* I'm repressing my inner smartarse.
Goody, goody!! So excited!! I'm totally in...And Gail, we're supposed to find out today what the theme and tasks will be.
Once you have a team and the leader has been picked or volunteered, everything will start to make a little more sense for you. :)

And then the talking about books, gophering and fun begins!
Gail wrote: "This seems quite different from any challenge I've done!

The teams, themes, and tasks just make the read-a-thon much more fun. Things get pretty lively around here. Jaxnsmom will be posting the details shortly and that will give us lots of time to plan who's reading what.
I m in (though I will be able to read only one book this time!)
I would like to do this as well..what are the rules as this would be my first one :)

She'll most probably post rules and teams as well as the complete list of tasks in the next couple of days, depending on what she has on.
So keep an eye on the threads :D
Yes, j'mom has given us a bit of a teaser in the other thread. She's listed a few of the tasks.
It's great to see people signing up who don't know what they're in for! Let's see, loads of fun, gophering, piles of possible books around the house, chatting, eating, drinking, emoticons, teamwork (can include taking one for the team), getting to know members, some annoyance at me and my pesky rules (can't be helped), and adding a ton of books to your tbr.
