This is a team challenge that will require two books a week. The object of the game is to roll the dice (there will be a link to the website to roll) and move along the board. The first team to pass the finish line wins the game.

Captains will roll the dice by clicking on Sundays and Thursdays once their team has completed their reads. Please note captains when rolling you will have to change it to one die. You may not advance until all of the team's reviews are in. If a player or team falls behind the team has to wait until the next Sunday or Thursday to roll. That being said it's very important to finish and review your book on time. If a player fails to review on time more than twice they will no longer be on the team (excluding a prearranged absence)

How to pick a book:
If you land on single digit spot for example lets say you land on spot 5 then you have to read a book that's #5 in a series. For double digit numbers, for example you land on spot 48 you can read either a #4 or a #8 in a series. Stand alone books will count as a #1 or a #0. I don't expect anyone to read a series out of order and for people that don't really read series books that still want to play there will be an alternate option. There will be an alternate option for each spot.

Sign ups are open now through April 14th. Teams will be formed on April 15th and the game will begin on Thurdsay the 17th.

There will be a separate thread for captains to post their place on the board after rolling and a separate thread for captains to post a link to the teams completed reviews.

Teams will have a chance to earn 1 Free Pass to roll. To earn your free pass your team has to complete their reads a day before the next roll. Once your team has done this you will have 1 free pass. The free pass will allow a team to roll if they are missing a review(s) before the cutoff. The free pass may not be used for the win. Once you've used it, you can't earn another one. It's a one time shot.

Re-reads are allowed
Page limit is 150
When using an anthology you may use any of the numbers in the book except for the .5 since this means 1/2. But you must review each story in the anthology.
Series # will be based on how GR has it listed.
Any questions please feel free to ask!

Also we're starting this back up so quick because it'll be June when it ends more than likely. If you have a vacation scheduled it's ok, just let me know ahead of time and we can work around it.

Jenne, Team One is now "Onderful Ones" and I'm the captain :)

I'm the captain of team 3

Team 3 is now The Three Tridenteers

Some day (next round?) I'll be brave and join the two books a week challenge :P

Jenne~Would this book work for letter "N" ?

Yep

Thank ya kindly!

Ok haven't done this yet so here's a spot update after the last roll

1: 40
2: 39
3: 36
4: 43
5: 38

Would this cover work for Gray/Silver...

Yeah it will :)

Jenne would this work for grey/silver?

Sue it's more black looking to me.

Ok

Sue I just looked at it on the computer instead of the phone. It's iffy but I'd let it make it :)

I just changed it ... To a 1st in series book... No biggie....:)

Ok all teams now have the winning in alternates in post 4 under the spoiler tag which have been randomly selected. For any newbies to win you have to roll past 75 and can use the # you'd be on i.e. land on 76 read a 7th, a 6th, or the alternate. The winning alternates:

77. Color: Yellow

79. Location: France
80. May-Read
81. Color: Gray/Silver

Team update:
1: 60
2: 64
3: 57
4: 64
5: 59

The earliest the game could end would be 2 more rolls.

So I've never been in this position and I can't remember the answer although I'm sure I've read it. Team 2 and Team 4 are both on spot 74. The next roll will likely be the winning roll (unless we both roll 1s), but what determines the winner? The team that finishes their books first or the team that is the furthest on the board? I'm like 95% sure it's the team that finishes first, but I thought I'd double check.

First team to finish :)

Great. Thanks Jenne!

Jenne, another question, do we have to post our reviews in the Post Your Spot thread to win?

Once the team has finished. You should go ahead and post it in the post your spot thread just so it's official but I'll be keeping an eye on the threads and will determine the winner by who finishes first.

We have 2 teams reading for the win this roll. Teams 2 and 4.
