Title: Paranormal VBB round 18 - Confirm, Play, Chat
Description: starts November 1


CheriePie - November 1, 2007 09:14 PM (GMT)
:vampire: Welcome to Round 18 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. 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.
  • At the start of each round, an * is placed in front of each title still in the box to track how long it's been in. If a book you've put in isn't taken after 2 complete rounds (**), you must replace it with a different one on your next turn.
  • 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 now as well.
  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 am going to skip for right now. I am really busy with school and haven't found time to read much of anything. Plus I owe lots of TBRs from this book. I will try to catch up on my reading during winter break. So those I owe books to please be patient with me.

Heh, I'm in the same boat as you. It's way too easy to become "over-extended" out here. LOL Good luck with school. :hug:

Confirming - sort of. My computer's broken (the LCD's shot and would cost $359 to replace so I'm going to end up buying a new one). :cry: If I'm not around within 24 hrs when my turn comes just bump me. I'll try to check in for a short bit daily but I'm not sure I'll be able to. :unsure:

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 now as well.
  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 am delaying the grading I have to do, so I figured doing an update was one way to go about it.

Thanks Karen!! :kiss:


ETA - I made a change to the last update to include Dark-Hunter #10 in front of terra's book. I'm not positive this is the right # to use since she now seems to include Fantasy Lover and some of the other stories from anthologies in the numbering of the stories at the website, but it does appear to be the 10th full-length novel published not counting the prequels.

I know! I'm reading those books now... and I have to say, her putting Dragonswan where it is makes no sense. It might looking back, but at the time you read it... nope. Not a bit.

I had to print the list so I can check off the books & short stories as I get to them (though I will have to skip a few short stories since I don't have those anthologies).

I know I just finished the one in Midnight Pleasures and sent that along to Brat, but I've got a lot of the others too, so let me know which ones your missing and I can reserve them for you after if they're ones I have. :)

BTW, Beginnings, which is Archeron's story, was also posted in full on her website at http://www.dailyinquisitor.com//hunter/acheronstory.htm. It's not something I can find a link to anywhere anymore though.

Thanks. I'm actually getting most of them from a co-worker. The books are making the rounds of the office. :giggle:

The only ones I don't have my hands on yet are Midnight Pleasures (so I'll read "Phantom Lover" later)

"Second Chances" from the collectible booklet

Love at First Bite (so I'll read "Until Death do We Part" later)

and then Devil May Cry & Upon the Midnight Clear (and I'm sure those are making the rounds.) :D

And "The Beginning" is in the back of Sins of the Night too. :nod:

:vampire: Welcome to Round 18 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. 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.
  • At the start of each round, an * is placed in front of each title still in the box to track how long it's been in. If a book you've put in isn't taken after 2 complete rounds (**), you must replace it with a different one on your next turn.
  • 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 now as well.
  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 thought about adding in the number for the series, but as y'all have discussed, it's a wee bit confusing so I chose to leave it as it was. *grin*
