ATTENTION: This box has been going now since June 2006, please take a look at the status of your books out of play owed to others, especially from the earlier rounds to make sure you've mailed them, or please provide an update to their status (ex. still TBR by 3/07, or to be mailed by 3/07, or mailed 2/15/07, 3/07 just as an example not a deadline :) ) SOME PLAYERS owe books from a YEAR ago - from Round 18 players who owe books for over 6 months will need to mail them before they can remove new books. Players who are affected are marked #
BOOKS OUT OF PLAY LISTWelcome to Round 21 of the Mystery Virtual Bookbox!If you would like to join, just let us know, you will be added to the bottom of the list. This is an international book box so all players need to be prepared to send books internationally. Once a book of yours is removed from the box, please send it as soon as possible. Any updates with mailing go into the books out of play thread.
If you are already on the list, please check in and give any dates that you will be out during the course of play so we know to wait on you or not. Let Shaunie or Giz know if you see anything amiss that they need to check on.
Turn time is 2 full days (unless we've had dates from the player)
If you have any books with 2 stars this time (**) you will need to replace them on your turn this round (but not until your turn, someone might still want them before it gets to you!). Thanks!
