Well not as prepared this time round - normally I have books selected for every potential task but this time I have only found books for all the ‘read from a list’ tasks - but waiting until the call for the others.

Living dangerously this time round 😱

That's a thing? Plan ahead? Not live on the edge and wait until the call to find a book and then wait until the last day to frantically read said book so you don't disappoint your whole team by failing to read a book? Hmmm. Who knew? 🤷‍♀️

😂😂

I have sent out a few PMs to players that either haven't played before or haven't played in a long time. I won't be allocating you to a team until I have your confirmation that you wish to play.

So please respond to the PM I have sent :)

In the last round I had books for each Task ready. But at the time of the call I read a totally different one. 😂

I’ve mostly planned apart from one where i need to pick from my mates list.

It looks as if GR has changed the notification process.
You now have to check the box on the thread saying ' notify when a comment is made' instead of checking to stop notifications on a thread.
I believe you are going to have to go back into any threads you want notifications on and check the box

Ugh! Thanks for letting us know Lisa. Help to navigate this site is always welcome!!

I'll sign up.

Thanks Lisa. Why do they always break things??!

SIGN UPS are closed. I'll be back in couple of hours with the teams.

Reminder:

If you haven't played before, please respond to the PM I sent to you yesterday. I'm not allocating new players to teams until they confirm they still wish to play and understand the commitment :)

I may take a bit longer to get the teams out. I have a headache that I don't want developing into a migraine, so I need to limit time with my glasses on :)

There is plenty of time for teams to get organized before the challenge begins Jane. Please take care yourself first!!

Teams are posted in msg 6.

I am waiting on a few new players to confirm that they still wish to play. They have not yet been allocated to a team, hence there are 3 teams with 1 less player :)

Team 5 - KarenH is yet to claim her posts, so please wait for her to do so before you introduce yourself.

I missed this one, but today is the last day for signups according to the message sent. So I would like to sign up if there's a spot on any teams.

Hi Vicki - I'll be able to add you to a team, but let me see first if we have missing players to try to keep the teams more even :).

I'll PM you once I know who/if doesn't show up ;)

Perfect, thank you. :)

I can't find team 7 thread or any thread where do I post?

Team 7


In general, if you go to the folder for this challenge you will find all the threads for the current round. 😊

Hi everyone - we are mainly waiting on newbies who have not yet been assigned to a team.

With all the GR code breaking that seems to be going on, and the difficulty members are having with notifications, I will leave the first theme announcement for Friday and NOT do an early call (like I generally do).

Vicki wrote: "Perfect, thank you. :)"

Hi Vicki - I've added you to team 3 :)

Thanks for letting us know Jane! Maybe GR will have figured out the problems by then. 🤞🏼

We can only hope!! 🙏🙏

Seems to be better this evening but I'm definitely not holding my breath.
