Yay, fellow teamsters!Welcome to Round 3 Bingo :D
Start thinking up names, especially those poetical minded of you *stares at Dana* LOL
LOL! Happy reading, Team4! ;)
Hmm.. team names.. team names... team... names... hmmm...I'm drawing a blank at the moment but I'll try to come up with some ideas.
So excited for the new round!!
This is going to be AWE-some!!!I'm on this name business...what flavor are we looking 4 (hehe) in a name ladies? Fear-inspiring? Creative/witty? Catchy and cute?
OK I've friended those of you not already on my friends list.We need a name so I can change my shoe to something more appropriate :)
forbidden....it those not exactly have four in it, but its all i can come up right now :D
Close is good Laura, doesn't have to be exact. Often the fun is having something just left of center. (I'll try and remember to use US spelling. LOL)
Our other option is going with a supe name. It was suggested on the discussion thread and some of the other teams are going with that idea.
As long as we don't pick Dragons, cause we just had a dragon team on CC4.
Hi everyone. I'm so excited!!! Just looked at the categories and there are some interesting ones. Name. Hmmm is there a supe type that has any mention of 4. How about Fourmidable fairies? Or rooty tooty fresh n fruity fae
Ok time for coffee and breakfast after that idea
ROFL! Zina
Where does everyone live or time zone? I m live near Calgary Alberta in the Rocky Mountains....so I am in the Mountain Time Zone...Off to check out the bookshelves and get my book list ready.....Need to take possible selections with me on my week of camping....
Still thinking of names....how about the Four Forces of nature....Something to do with Earth, Wind, Fire, Water....or maybe go with a character from one of the series.....like Barrons Booty Call...(KMM series)....or Phury's Foursome (reading Dark Lover right now)....
Best be getting ready for work....(which BTW I only have 3 days left at my current job and then 3 weeks off (for reading and camping) and then start my new job in August)....
Sounds great Zina!Sydney, Australia here.
I forgot to ask, does anyone want to be Team Captain? I don't mind if someone wants to have a go :)

Why? We can use your shoe to stab the competition!
Florida, Eastern Time Zone.No Team Captain here...I'll let someone else have all the fun!
Names, names, names, Oh, the pressure!!
i ll bow out of team captain....I was team captain on the CC4 challenge and I am busy for the next four weeks ....(I have probably about 2 weeks where I will have limited access)

Sandra wrote: "LOL, do we then use your nice flower as a funeral tribute!"Ah, my flower can be used for so many things!! A funeral tribute is a good one.
4midable Fae En4cers.....4evR!!!!We'd be like Fae assassins or something. :)
I have to admit how much I like the Rooty Tooty Fresh and Fruity Fae. ;) Too funny!
I'm in Southern California. I love all the names so far! haha
I like the idea of being Fae assassins, we could all use shoes to stab the competition, I'm sure we all have a nice pair of stilettos perfect for the job! LOL
Sarah wrote: "I'm sure we all have a nice pair of stilettos perfect for the job! LOL "LMBO!!!
We could be the Fae En4cers .. like what Dana said :D
i like the most FOURce of Nature, FOUR the Win! and forbidden.
Hi...just checking in before I go to work....Was busy working on my list of books and working out a schedule for reading....I sign up for challenges, but havent been very good at keeping track of dates...
Getting more organized...
Really need to design a spreadsheet...might work on that next week
This weekend is our anniversary celebration....I have planned a weekend away with Hubby...He has no idea where we are going or what we are doing....
My second last day of work yipeee!!!
Name I am leaning to Fource of Nature ....was doing some research on the symbolism of 4 but nothing was really popping out for me.....
Zina, sounds like you have a great weekend planned :DOne of the best ways of keeping track of challenges is to put them all in a thread in our Member Lists down near the bottom of the group. Much easier when you can see them all together. Easier to cross challenge as well.
I've been trying to think of something interesting for 4 as well, without much luck so far.
Zina wrote: "This weekend is our anniversary celebration....I have planned a weekend away with Hubby..."Congrats, Zina!!
Dang, it cut off the edges! Otherwise, what do you think of this image?
I'd volunteer for the captain spot, but only if you would like a break Sandra (or if no one else wants to). You are super at it so it's a no-brainer (to me at least) if you want to do it. :)
Yeah! I vote for Erato for Captain.I think Sandra deserves a break. She is so totally awesome!
I have every confidence that Erato will be just as great.
*grin* Thanks missy!Has anyone ever posted an image in html? I've never wanted to before so why should I care how to do it, right? Of course, now I want to show you the cool pic I found and my right and left brains (yes, there are two) are arguing over the 'how-to'. (This results in 'how-NOT-to' in my world.) Anyone? Bueller?
Just to put the time thing all in one place since we haven't yet...Sarah= California
Dana= Washington (state)
Zaanodes= Florida
Zina= Alberta
Laura= where iz u girlie? ;)
Sandra= is freezing her booty off in the land of sexy accents (read: Australia)
So you are like 12-16 hours-ish ahead of the states, is that right Sandra? I'm so sucky with time zones! It is an absolute miracle that I understand the concept of time being the 4th dimension, since I am totally futzed by, "It's not Thursday there? It's Friday?" Duh!
I'd love to visit Australia but I don't have the time or the money haha but one day! :D
Should we vote on whatever names have been brought up? Or do people still want to suggest some?
Sarah wrote: "I'd love to visit Australia but I don't have the time or the money haha but one day! :D"Wouldn't it be awesome? My DH has been twice (turkey!) and he would love to go again, but dude!!!!! The plane tickets are like buying a used car! (OK, more like a mortage payment.) I hyperventilate just thinking about it. =[
Maybe next summer we could live like hobos to save money and then fly to see Sandra...we'll bring her some wool socks. And firewood. And those electric undies. hehe ;D Hot pants rule!
im from Estonia, but i live in Turkey :) enjoying the mediterranean weather :P
No clue on how to post an image. Which is why I did the profile pic thing (cheat!).Name: We have a few days, let the brains simmer...
Aussie: ME, TOO! ME, TOO! Ok, I just want to go...(almost) ANYWHERE!
Got my list done. 3 will be DTB's, 2 of which have already been ordered and should be here tomorrow.If any one wants to check it out:
http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/...
You're so organized!Once an announcement is made, I search the shelf and I could possibly change my mind three times before I even start reading a book. I'm a very moody reader. If I pick it up and it doesn't fit my mood, I put it back and pick up something else.
