If a Team member has been moved to the "holding" Team because of inactivity, another Team member may still use their books for Category #1-"Behind Enemy Lines," since the person was active when the 7% Solution Started.

However, if a book has been removed from a shelf because of low pages count, then of course, it would NOT work for your Team either.

Again, please make sure you are really ready to post.

Yes, you may ask a Mod to review your submissions first, and they will give a cursory review. This does NOT include checking if a book is really on another Team's shelf, nor if it was read in the right time-frame. Nor does it include qualifying page count. Please have these checked before they come to us.

         

     The posting thread for the 7% Solution Challenge is "officially" open!

Welcome.

Cadet/Pewter blue might be completely finished but I'm still confused as to if I need to remove players or not. My new co-captain Vicky has been doing some rearranging. But I don't want to submit until I know who I can't have on our combined team anymore.

Mary: Harry Dresden's Love Slave wrote: But I don't want to submit until I know who I can't have on our combined team anymore."

As I told you last night, Mary: HDLS, that is up to you. As long as you and Teresa stay within the 1,350 range with your book goal total.

JoLene, there will be a delay in checking your submissions.

JoLene, for Marvelous.
