Done, thanks!

On the readerboard points you have Kara down for 10 points but I think it's actually supposed to be me, Kari. Thanks :)

I'm sorry, Kari. I'll fix this when I get home from work.

Please check your math - these add up to 60 points. No need to repost anything - just want to let you know so you can keep your own records straight!

JILL RENEE post 89
You must include a link to your book as part of your post. Please see post #1 in the Completed Tasks thread for a quick overview of posting requirements.

Please repost this task, including the required link.

Sandy MN - post 84

The edition of A Clash of Kings you linked to has 761 pages, which entitles you to 2 BB tickets. If, however, you read an edition that was over 1000 pages, please repost the task with a link to the correct edition to claim your other BB ticket (books over 1000 pages = 3 tickets).

I didn't see a problem with my posts here. I think my points may have been credited to Emma, but my readerboard name is Emmalita. I have 35 points so far. My post was number 62. Could someone check for me please?

Task 30.6, option D, requires tht you post the list on which you found your book and what its number on the list was. Please repost with the required information.

dang it second time on the list. I am on it. Thanks.

LORNA post 201
National Geographic Cat Shots appears to be a picture book. I cannot find any description of it that indicates that there is any significant text in the book beyond "amusingly informative captions and brief biographies of each contributor."
Picture books require 500 pages.

If there is a significant amount of text in this book, please repost explaining that.

AMANDA A post 223

One of the books you claimed for task 25.7, Fortune Hunter, appears to only exist in e-book form. Please note the rules for posting these books:

8. If your book is an ebook with no print version, you must have it approved for length before posting in the ebook page verification thread: Ebook page verification. Verification is only necessary if there is no print version of the ebook.

If you claim a book in Completed Tasks that exists ONLY in ebook format, you must provide a reference to the ebook verification document when you post ex."Approved @ line #" or provide the post number in the ebook verification thread where it was approved ex. "Approved post #"

Please re-post with the required info. No need to repost the other tasks claimed in post 223.

JILL post 234

The posting requirements state that you must post a LINK to the books you claim. Please repost, including a link.

MEAGAN post 258
Task 30.6, option G specifies that "the central character" must have a significant solo experience. booksHarry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban does not appear to work for this task, since Sirius Black is not the central character.

CHARLOTTE post 260
Please go to the Readerboard names thread http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/4... and post to be added to the readerboard. After that's done, please repost your task.
Thanks.

JENN RENEE post 271

You claimed Wrecked for task 10.5, and that appears to only exist in e-book form. The posting requirements specify:

If you claim a book in Completed Tasks that exists ONLY in ebook format, you must provide a reference to the ebook verification document when you post ex."Approved @ line #" or provide the post number in the ebook verification thread where it was approved ex. "Approved post #"

For task 30.7, you claimed Frost. The task requires "Norse mythology heavily featured in the plot." The description/reviews don't mention much in the way of Norse mythology. They do say "loosely based on the Snow Queen," but that was a fairy tale by Hans Christian Anderson, not a Norse myth. If this book does "heavily" involve Norse mythology, please explain.
Thanks.

Kimber - post 265

The edition of Undone that you've linked to shows 436 pages. If you read an edition that had over 500 pages, please repost this task with a link to the correct edition in order to receive your big book ticket.

Maggie - post 282

Challenge rules state:
5. When determining page count, you should go by the copy you read- EXCEPT as noted below for ebooks, audiobooks, and large print books.

If you read an ebook, audiobook, or large print book use the page count for the mass market paperback if one exists. If there is no mass market paperback edition, use the paperback edition and if no paperback is available use the hardcover edition.

If the mass market paperback edition of Valley of the Dolls has 500+ pages, please repost this task with a link to that edition to receive a big book ticket.

OH MAN! I was trying to stay off of this page - it's not even 2 weeks in and here I am! Geesh!
I actually listened to this via audiobook. I got the page number from one of the mass market paperback versions. I probably didn't link to that exact one - that's difficult to do when there are like 20 to choose from on the drop down. I'll try to do better next time. For this time, I'm just going to forfeit the big book ticket - that seems easier for everyone & it won't kill me not to have it. Thanks!

Kim wrote: "I got the page number from one of the mass market paperback versions. I probably didn't link to that exact one - that's difficult to do when there are like 20 to choose from on the drop down..."

Yep, it's hard - what I've done, when I want to make sure to link to a specific edition, is to start with the book's home page, click on the list of other editions. That will show the mass market paperback version (or whatever specific edition you're looking for). Then, you can copy the ISBN, and when you post the book, try putting that ISBN instead of the title in the "add book/author" thing - that should bring up the edition you're trying to get. At least that used to work - who knows what will happen with all the bugs now w/ GR - maybe you'll get some entirely different book! But, it's worth a try.

I totally agree Sandy. The ISBN number is the way to go with finding the specific version in that drop down linking window. After 9 seasons of participation in the SRC I just discovered that little tidbit last week. What a time saver when posting.

On post #302 I had listed a GRA for James Patterson but it is not listed on the reader board, I am sure it just got missed.

Thanks

The readerboard is only updated through post 300 so your post in #302 hasn't been counted yet. You can tell where they left off because the will put "updated through post..." at the top.

Geek Love won't work for 25.1 option B - the book cover must be a solid color except for the lettering in the author/title. The medallion on the right side introduces another color.

When you repost 25.1, no need to repost 5.9 and 10.2.

Dear Moderators:
I seem to be missing 5 points. I posted task 5.5 in #334, for a total of 20 - but I only show 15 on the readerboard. I looked here for a problem post, but don't see anything. Can you please re-look at my numbers?

Thanks!

Have you checked to see if the readerboard is up to or past post #334?

Yes, the readerboard says 350

I will check when I get home from work.

Found the problem! You listed this as task 5.6 - and by a weird coincidence, the 5 point task you had already posted was 5.6. So, when I got back to it after the interminable GR wait after I clicked on the book, I saw that 5.6 was already marked on the spreadsheet and thought I had marked it already. I've marked you for 5.5 now - sorry for the confusion.

JEN C post 363

I don't see how this cover fits with other covers that have been approved as "summer scenes" for this task. I may well be missing something - could you please explain what is summery about this?

ABBIE post 365
I am guessing that you mean to claim this for task 10.9? If so, please include the required info in your post (correct task number and/or name of task; if 10.9, which season and category).

MASANOBU post 378

Task 5.4 requires that the book title/author name must contain 2 Ns and 2 Os.

LAURIE ME post 387
For task 30.7, both your book options must come from the same "awesome matchup" - so if you use Austenland, you nee to choose one of the other 2 options from the Black Widow v. Red Guardian choices and if you use And Then There Were None, one of the other 2 options from the Wolverine v. Deadpool matchup.

DEANNA post 368
Since "Blahnik" is a brand, not an article of clothing, I am not sure that your book will work for Task 30.1, die roll3. I have asked the task creator for clarification.

MAGGIE post 401
Task 15.7 requires you to read the first book in a series consisting of at least 3 books that are already published or will be published by the end of the summer challenged. the third book in the series beginning with Matched is listed with an expected publication date of November 2012.

I didn't even think to check the other covers to compare - I just thought it looked like a red-hot sunny summer day. I'm fine with moving it to another task, though.
