Welcome to Summer Throwdown
Librarians VS Teachers
Round 2
Based on feedback, we've tweeked a few things to level the playing field. We've kept the same hashtags: #leagueoflibrarians, #teamteacher, and #summerthrowdown. You can also use #bookaday with your #summerthrowdown tweet! More bang for your hashtag!
Rules
Rule Number 1 - The #summerthrowdown challenge runs from Sunday, July 22 - Saturday Aug 18.
You can start a book before the 22nd and then finish it on the 22nd, that counts. But, if you start a book on the 18th and don't finish it by 11:59pm, it does not count. YOU MUST HAVE LESS THAN 50% OF THE BOOK COMPLETED BEFORE JULY 22ND FOR IT TO COUNT! DON'T TRY TO SAVE 1 OR 2 PAGES!
Rule Number 2 - Books count (here's a change)
0-49 pages: 0.25
50-149 pages: 0.5
150-349 pages: 1
350-549 pages: 1.5
550-749 pages: 2
750-949 pages: 2.5
950-1149 pages: 3
Rule Number 3 - We need stinking badges - clicking will take you to the signup/log sheet!

Oh, I like the scoring change! I slogged through A Clash of Kings, weighing it at almost 1,000 pages, leaving no time to read much else!
ReplyDeleteI am feeling so uninspired to read right now that I hate to register... nothing at all sounds good to read. I guess this means I am ready for summer to be over.
