Ridiculously Random Reading Challenge - Q&A Thread: Ask your questions below!

Bernadette’s Ridiculous Reading🤣

If we join now are we supposed to catch up on the previous prompts? How does it work ?

No, there's no "catching up" to do. I would just give you your first prompt and go from there. You have quite a bit of time to complete the challenge.

Where do we check in for our next prompt?

in the thread michelle makes for you she will post a random promt you reply your book and she will post next your prompt

Ok, i finished my latest prompt a couple of days ago. I was wondering if we needed to check in separately.

Hi Michelle, regarding prompt 17, which involves social media, could you clarify whether a specific platform should be mentioned, or if the general term "social media" is acceptable?

I would take a specific platform or just "social media" as a general term.

Thank you 😊

Hi again Michelle, for these variations, box, boxes, boxed, etc.} found in the text - does this have to be just about the sport ?

No, it can refer to a box you put things into. That part doesn't matter. 😊

Got it, thanks for confirming :)

Hi Michelle, for the character eats cheese, does it need to be just the cheese or it can be a sandwich with a cheese on it?

A sandwich is fine as long as there's cheese on it.

Thank you. I got one :)

I'm back! Lol

For toes/feet are visible on the cover, would foot be enough? 😉

Yes, I will take that. 😊

Michelle, can you check my thread? I think you have put a task from another challenge instead of the next one of mine.

Fixed. 😊

Hi, just to clarify, for the prompt book published since 2008, does that mean published 2008 onwards?

Yes, that's correct. 😊

Thank you 😊

Am I allowed to join as a new player any time or did it have to be at the start date?

Unfortunately, sign-ups closed for this challenge back in May.

Hi. For challenges where all letters of a word must be found in the title of the book does a subtitle count:

Example: The Poisoner's Handbook: Murder and the Birth of Forensic Medicine in Jazz Age New York

Thanks.

Yes, for my challenges, I will allow subtitles, unless specifically stated otherwise.

Thanks for a fun challenge, Michelle. It was truly, ridiculously random 😂

Has this challenge been closed, Michelle? I Posted https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... here, but didn’t get a reaction and maybe I missed the closing?

Sorry about that, Claire. I completely missed your post. Heading there now...

I’ve just had an Author spammer post in my thread - can a mod delete it for me please as I can’t do it - I can’t work out how to block him - but he is a member of this group

He is working his way through lots of threads

Hi Michelle, just checking if you'd missed my completion on 11/4? No worries if you just haven't gotten there yet; GR has been messing around with my notifications, so who knows who else has fallen prey lol.

Sorry for the delay! I was at a seminar most of the week, and the wi-fi was much worse than expected.

I have a question, Read a book published since 2008. Does that mean 2008 and after?

Yes. So, published in any year from 2008 to 2026.

Ok thanks :)

I posted my latest completion on 1st May and still waiting on the next task.
