You're already at 43 comments, so I wouldn't be surprised if you join in by the end of January or February :)

Wow, I thought I was at perhaps 20 at best. There's not really any easy way to see how many comments you've made on mobile.

Yeah, when you see the group info, you'd probably have to click the 'members' link, search for yourself, and then it should come up. Are you using the GR app or a browser on your phone?

I'm using the GR app on android.

The app works great for adding/managing books but it certainly needs some updates for the groups part of goodreads.

Don't use the app. It's better to use a good browser (which will automatically block ads/etc) and set the website to 'Desktop Mode' for full functionality.

The app has issues and it's not as good as using a browser on PC/smartphone/tablet/device.

I couldn't have said it better. :) I downloaded the app and used it once before switching to my mobile browser. They don't have all the functions, and it's really hard to use with groups.

My biggest problem is that old habits die hard. I've been using the app for years now so I always default to it without even thinking about it haha

Aha, House of Chains! The first team that I started in a couple of years ago :)

Ooh! This looks great! Can't wait to be part of it someday:)

I am very excited! Thank y'all for organizing! Hi House of Chains folks!

Oh, thank you :D

Announcing new members!

Welcome JULIAN to the Blood Eagles, EMILY to the House of Chains, ANGELA JR to the Jaghut Guardians, and MICHE to the Tome Raiders!

And as a reminder - you can use any books that you were reading when you signed up for the challenge.

Thanks, Jenna!

Any chance that for next year there be a 5th team? That and can this team be called The Horns of Hammerad?

And can I be on this team if my request happens lol?

LOL The names have been some mix of Malazan for the years I've joined. I don't know if the names will change? lol

Never hurts to ask. xD

I love that adventuring group lol

The teams brainstormed names that first year… and there was a lot of Malazan going on back then…

I think I had a heavy hand in naming the 2 non-Malazan teams… I started on Blood Eagles, and pointed out the wordplay of Tomb/Tome Raiders…
