EVERYONE Has Read This but Me - The Catch-Up Book Club discussion

🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁

HOW THE CHALLENGE WORKS
- Everyone who wants to play joins a house and all the houses compete to read the most over the three months. The scores are based on an average and there will be an overall winner as well as 2 winners each month when you will go head-to-head with another team.
- The Challenge will run from October 1 through December 31. All books started & finished during this time will count toward the challenge.
- Post in YOUR HOUSE’S THREAD ran by your house’s prefect. contribute with the BOOK TITLE and DATE FINISHED and NUMBER OF PAGES.
- If you would like you can make one post, or one per month, and update them to keep everything in one place, but I do ask that you make another comment letting your team prefect know that you updated it.

RULES AND SCORING
We will use an average score to balance the different house sizes. We will use a tiered scoring system based on the number of pages in a book. Essentially, it's 1 point for every 250 pages read within a book. Here's the breakdown:
1-249 pages = 1 point
250-499 pages = 2 points
500-749 = 3 points
and so on...

- If its a graphic novel, heavily pictured book or sparsely worded (i.e. poetry), half points will be awarded, so it will be 0.5 points for every 250 pages. The points will be awarded per book and not per cumulative pages read.
- Easy point-getters are limited to 10 per month per participant. These will be books with less than 50 pages.
- A book cannot be counted more than one time in a month, so a maximum of three times over the course of a challenge.
- If you read one of the group's selected group reads for October, November or December, you get to add a bonus 0.5 point. (This must be read in the month that the book is our BOTM pick)
- For a book to count, it must be started and finished during the challenge timeframe.
-*NEW* A book must have page numbers listed on Goodreads to count towards this challenge.

- Number of participants per house will be counted based on contributions, so if a member signs up and does not contribute, they are not used in average calculations.

- This challenge will feature a ROUND ROBIN TOURNAMENT with each month featuring a matchup with a different house. To count for a matchup, the book must be read within that month and posted no later than one day after the end of the month. We will not do late term adjustments, but books read in an earlier month (no earlier than October) can still count toward your house’s overall total. The winner of the tournament will be featured in EHRTBM Hall of Fame.

ROUND ROBIN SCHEDULE

OCTOBER
Scarecrow vs. Dorothy
Tin Man vs. Lion

NOVEMBER

DECEMBER

- Participants must log their book in Goodreads as read to count them in the challenge.


Since this competition can get intense, please note that we do expect good sportsmanship from participants and failure to demonstrate good sportsmanship will result in warnings. Multiple warnings or extremely offensive remarks may result in a participants removal from the challenge.

** I will also keep track of all of our points in a spreadsheet which you can track at any time here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...

Hi Everyone!!

my name is Jessica :) and live in the EST time zone. This is my 3rd time participating in this challenge and 2nd time being a prefect! I am very excited for this challenge. I tend to read romance, thrillers and humor books.

i look forward to meeting all of you. hope we clear some tbr's and enjoy our reads! Let's make this an great house cup challenge! GO team Lion 🦁🦁🦁

helpful tip: it's useful to reserve your spot below for the books you read each month. It's easier to track that way and for me to have one place to look. however, whatever way works best for each of you (one post a month, or a message each book) is okay too :)
