Signing up for 6-10 ... I might read more but don't want to commit.

The tasks will all be pertaining to reading, so you will be able to read as well as contribute to the tasks for your team! Still, if you find you cannot, let your team captain know so they can assign your tasks to someone else

I'll be focusing on my personal reading this month, so maybe I'll hold off till next month, thanks for explaining though!

2 books right? But what's the page requirement? I might be reading online fics instead of proper books... depending on what the topic is... so I want to know what length of fics I should be targeting. Even if do end up reading books, a page count would be helpful to know what kind of books to pick.

P.S. Wouldn't it be better to have sign-ups for bingo separately... to help divide the teams accordingly? What if too many uninterested members end up in the same team? The rest of the team members will have to work harder to balance that out. It also helps those who don't want to participate... as they can just continue their own reading without having to force themselves to participate for the sake of the team... or feel guilty about not doing their part.

@b: exactly. We don't have to force anyone to take part or do their tasks.

Thanks Stuti, I was about to address this.

Why not take bingo sign-ups individually, like you did for Book Buddies? If people aren't interested in team activities or do not contribute actively, the team will suffer, which isn't fair to the other members who have actively worked for the team's victory, right?

Forgot to tag

And now since you bring up the other point about Bingo, I might have to change the number of required tasks.

Those who have signed up: please indicate if you’d like to participate in Bingo or not. I’ll still have you in teams for the RC, but you won’t receive the BB badge - just the RC ones (if you log the minimum number of pages)

2 tasks on the grid. There is no page requirement as long as you finish the tasks.
