So if I started reading a book before this challenge started, can I still use for a task or is it page points only?

If you've read over 100 pages for this month, October, then you can count it for a task in the challenge. Just let me know how many pages you've read for October.

If it's less than 100 pages, then it will be for page points only. You will also need to let me know how many pages were read this month alone.

Alaina, would work on it's own for comic task or do we need to add another comic to bump up the page count to 100?

Yes, it would for that alone. I already marked it for that category on my end.

Thank you!

Are the first round suspect/weapon/location eliminated in further rounds or could they repeat?

Team's conclusions will be chosen randomly. Yes, you can get a repeat suspect, weapon, or location so do not think if you’ve had a suspect already that you cannot get them in a future conclusion.

For title related tasks is "The" considered a part of the title? In other words can I use The Cruel Prince for Title starts with a letter in VULCAN?

Also what does MPG mean?

You can use or skip 'The' if you want. Also, MPG mean main page genre.

For the “tagged as ___” prompts, could we count it if the word is part of a bigger tag? For example, for “Tagged as ghost,” could we use a book that’s tagged as “paranormal-ghosts”?

I'm pretty sure I know what your answers gonna be but I'm asking anyway. For the double letter task, does the letter have to be together as in ball or can it be separate as in never? Can it be in two different words or does it have to be in the same word?

Together and in the same word, like ball or letter.

I just finished this book

and it doesn't have any pages on Goodreads so can I use the number of pages on Amazon instead?
Here's the link: https://www.amazon.com/Scars-Blackwat...

Do nicknames count for “MC has a three letter first or last name” if that’s what they’re primarily called?

Sure, go for it!

Are we able to DM reviews to you instead of posting them on Goodreads and uploading the link to the review thread? I'm currently withholding posting reviews of HarperCollins books because of the strike, so I have some books I've read that I've written reviews for, but those reviews are in my notes app and not on GR, lol.
