Title: Paranormal VBB round 17 - Confirm, Play, Chat
Description: starts October 1


CheriePie - September 30, 2007 09:47 AM (GMT)
:vampire: Welcome to Round 17 of the Paranormal Virtual Bookbox! :werewolf:

Box Guidelines:
  • NEW RULE: If you owe books from more than 6 rounds ago, you should refrain from taking any new books out of the box until you've first caught up those past due obligations. (Books owed from less than 6 rounds ago, with m-bag organizers, or for which other arrangements have been made don't count towards this limit.)
  • Turn time is 2 full days, or 48 hours, from the time the update announcing the player's turn is posted. If you are going to be away or otherwise inaccessible when your turn comes up, please let me know so that I can put a note by your name and your absence will not be treated as a "no-show" (see below).
  • If the full 48 hours has passed with no word from the player, then the next player will take their turn. We will do this for the next 3 players following the missing player, and if they still haven't checked in by then, they'll be bumped to the bottom of the list. This will become their new permanent spot until the list is reshuffled.
  • The Box Organizer will be the official time keeper and determine a skip or bottom placement.
  • New players will be accepted during play and added to the bottom of the list.
On Your Turn:
  1. Select the books that you want to take out of the box and list them in your post.
  2. Replace with the same number of books (or more) and link to the BookCrossing journal pages for each book(s).
  3. If any of your books have "**" in front of them, they must be replaced at this time too.
  4. If you want to skip your turn, you have the option to be placed at the bottom of the list for another try this round. If you do this, it will become your new permanent spot until the next list reshuffle. (Reshuffling happens every 3 rounds.)
  5. If you are willing and able to do the update, please do so. Before posting, verify that you've (1) listed your move in the Moves section, (2) added to the list of books the ones you're putting in, (3) removed from the list of books the ones you're taking out or replacing, and (4) listed the books you're taking out in the Books Out of Play section at the bottom, indicating they are going to you. (This is all fairly easy to do with cut and paste so long as you remember all the steps.) If you're new, don't worry about doing updates just yet!

Just an FYI for anyone that's taken Shawnna's books from the box.

She's left us for the time being while she deals with a whole bunch of nasty, legal shit that's going on back home. But she's got set aside all the stuff that needs to be mailed from here, though it's all boxed up right now because she's moving again soon.

Since she hasn't been able to check in here, and asked to be removed until things are somewhat back to normal for her, I didn't want to leave anyone wondering what's going on. I wasn't sure how much of what's happening she wanted made public so I'll just leave it at that, and she can elaborate or not if she feels it appropriate when the dust settles. :hug:

luckaye - September 30, 2007 10:22 PM (GMT)
Checking in and see that I have plenty of time to read the book I picked up yesterday for this VBB :)

Oh wishlist book. :drool:

:vampire: Welcome to Round 17 of the Paranormal Virtual Bookbox! :werewolf:

Box Guidelines:
  • NEW RULE: If you owe books from more than 6 rounds ago, you should refrain from taking any new books out of the box until you've first caught up those past due obligations. (Books owed from less than 6 rounds ago, with m-bag organizers, or for which other arrangements have been made don't count towards this limit.)
  • Turn time is 2 full days, or 48 hours, from the time the update announcing the player's turn is posted. If you are going to be away or otherwise inaccessible when your turn comes up, please let me know so that I can put a note by your name and your absence will not be treated as a "no-show" (see below).
  • If the full 48 hours has passed with no word from the player, then the next player will take their turn. We will do this for the next 3 players following the missing player, and if they still haven't checked in by then, they'll be bumped to the bottom of the list. This will become their new permanent spot until the list is reshuffled.
  • The Box Organizer will be the official time keeper and determine a skip or bottom placement.
  • New players will be accepted during play and added to the bottom of the list.
On Your Turn:
  1. Select the books that you want to take out of the box and list them in your post.
  2. Replace with the same number of books (or more) and link to the BookCrossing journal pages for each book(s).
  3. If any of your books have "**" in front of them, they must be replaced at this time too.
  4. If you want to skip your turn, you have the option to be placed at the bottom of the list for another try this round. If you do this, it will become your new permanent spot until the next list reshuffle. (Reshuffling happens every 3 rounds.)
  5. If you are willing and able to do the update, please do so. Before posting, verify that you've (1) listed your move in the Moves section, (2) added to the list of books the ones you're putting in, (3) removed from the list of books the ones you're taking out or replacing, and (4) listed the books you're taking out in the Books Out of Play section at the bottom, indicating they are going to you. (This is all fairly easy to do with cut and paste so long as you remember all the steps.) If you're new, don't worry about doing updates just yet!

I'm going to skip this month. I just started back to school and don't have time to read much. I also need to get caught on my reading and mailings.

KathyB - October 2, 2007 08:08 PM (GMT)
I have to get books together to go into the box and figure out what I want to take out, so I'll try to get it done after i get home from work this evening.
