Anniversary Challenge
Mod
Well, of course, we will give you plenty of opportunities to get bonus points!
If you read a book that fits the following below, you will get this number of bonus points:
- Book that has 10 words in the title (any edition works) → 10 pts
- Book that was published in October (any year) → 10 pts
- Book that has a '1' and '0' in the page count → 10 pts
- Book that was published on the 10th day of ANY month → 20 pts
- Book that was published in a year that ends in a ‘0’ ('00, '10, '20) → 20 pts
- Book that is #10 in a series → 20 pts
- Book that has the letters O, C , T, O, B, E, R in title (in any order) → 30 pts
- Book that has the letters O, C , T, O, B, E, R in series title (in any order) → 30 pts
- Book that has 'anniversary' in text (please include page number, or %, and the quote) → 30 pts
- Book that has a publication date with all 10's in it (e.g. October 10th, 2010) → 40 pts
For example, if you read the following book, The Long Way Home, you could post like this:
Review: add link
Buddy: add link if applicable
Pages: most rated (ex: this one would be 373 pages)
- Book that was published in October (any year) → 10 pts (using this edition - La via di casa)
- Book that was published on the 10th day of ANY month → 20 pts (using this edition - The Long Way Home)
- Book that was published in a year that ends in a 0 ('00, '10, '20) → 20 pts (using this edition - Den långa vägen hem)
- Book that is #10 in a series → 20 pts
- Book that has 'anniversary' in text (please include page number, or %, and the quote) → 30 pts (Pg. 29, “but on the first anniversary of his leaving”)
and you would receive 100 bonus points for that book.
The scores would also look like this:
______Name__|___Books__|___Buddy___|___Pages___|___Total___
____________|___Read___|___Reads___|___Read____|__Points___
Player1_____|_____1____|__________|_____4____|_____4____
Player2_____|_____0____|__________|__________|__________
Bonus: + 100
Total_______|_____1____|__________|_____4____|___104____
Just a friendly reminder that bonus points are for the team, not individually.

Anniversary Challenge:
Happy anniversary, everyone!
This will be our tenth year of being a group on Goodreads, and that makes us very happy. Just like all the other previous anniversary challenges, we are bringing back the relaxing, but very competitive, page count challenge.
Since it's all about page points, any book counts!
