:vampire: Welcome to Round 23 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!
6. Please PM the next person to let them know they're up.

Fixed. Thanks for catching it. I usually try to double check each entry myself, figuring that's my job as keeper of the box, but truth be told, I could've given 2 hoots what was going on here or anywhere last month so I didn't catch it for ya. Sowwie.

:yahoo:

confirming!!!!!!!

twigg

...what's up with the PUF swap??

confirming

Skipping and will PM k-kay.

To which PUF swap are you referring?

You can check the pinned Swap Schedule topic in the Swaps thread for the dates of upcoming swaps if that's what your asking about.

edited the above, and added in the fact that k_kay's away till the 4th so it's actually Smilin-Heart that's up next. Will PM.

Confirming.

Hot damn.. I'm here! :dance:

or if you mean my note about Cherie or a guest host, I only put that because I thought that was around the time of relocating, so it was just a guess. :shrug:

I think the plan is PUF ALS on the off months of Regular PUF swap.

Yeah and at this rate, seeing as how our house isn't even on the market yet (we're on the kitchen now, but we still need to ride out the market conditions a wee bit too), I'm fairly certain I'll still be living in MA in May. :erm:

confirming :wave:

confirming

confirming

:whip:BAD twigg :bash:
I have this awful habit of asking a question, and not waiting for an answer :whip: :whip: sorry..sorry...sorry :bash:
OK, last month I enquired about joining in the fun of the PUF swap. The answer I got was to look out for the first of the month to see when it would start up again.
There was a pol that asked for choice of dates to start...but no additional info.
the now humbled twigg :peek:

Ok Twig, here's what you need to do. There are two PUF swaps, one is the regular 12 hour version that Cherie runs and it's every other month. The other is Nursie's ALS PUF swap and that is the one that was asking for dates, because it's very fast, like 10 minute turn times, and you have to stay in your seat at the computer to play, it takes 2-3 hours usually depending on how many people. The biggest reason for the poll is because you really need to know when people will be around to play! :lol:

So just be on the lookout for the signup threads over in the swaps forum, and look at our schedule that we've pinned at the top of the swaps forum that should tell when the next one is, if we know.

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!
6. Please PM the next person to let them know they're up.

:vampire: Welcome to Round 23 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 ifthey 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!
