Competitive/Cooperative Hybrid Challenge
Start Date: 6/1/25
This challenge will be run on both sites!

This challenge separates readers into two camps: Sprinters, who race through shorter books, and Marathoners, who take on longer tomes. Pick a team and only read for your team and the bonus tasks. Will your team win based on number or on endurance? Each team will have its wiki with their tasks AND the bonus tasks. Whichever team completes ALL their tasks AND the bonus tasks first will have won. Pick your teams wisely. You may discuss strategy in the threads.

Rules:

Books must be finished after the start date.

Minimum page count: 100 pages.

Submit books here:
Sprinters:
SS: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...

Marathoners:

Sammy (sammystarbuck) | 3782 comments Ok, I'll bite. I'll do the marathon, as there's a lot more pages to be read there!

I have updated this with spreadsheets. I will move over the books from the wikis when it is back up and remove the wikis. In the meantime, happy reading!

Everything has been transferred over from the wikis. Please use the spreadsheets going forward.
