Yeah, geography isn't my strong suit either.
*points at invisible world map* I know USA, Canada and Mexico, of course. China is this big land mass here and Austrilia is here. I think this is Africa. Aaand, that's the extent of my geographical knowlage. I can't wait to show you guys the prize I'm giving away for my mini-challenge. I'm so exited! I've never been a mini-challenge host before. |

Congrats, Kanaye! I can't wait to see what you have people do for the mini challenge.
Can't you do math before the read-a-thon or part of it so that you don't have to do everything after? Now that I don't have to study it anymore I miss math and geography. |

Nope. Can't do it before. And doing it during would just make the joy of reading the joy of reading be muted by the annoyance of math.
At the end I need to calculate how many pages I read and how many minutes/hours. My Mini-challenge post is all ready! I'm so exited! I sent it to the people to see if I need to edit anything but I haven't heard back from them yet. This is actually the prize I'm giving away. I hope people like it and the person who wins will be happy with it.  |

I suppose I'll just have to wait until tomorrow to do this in fun spirit, as I'm still sick and feeling sluggish. :| Good luck, everyone! |

Congrats on the second book, Kanaye-dear!
Maybe next year, you need to let CPA know a few days in advance! (Or PM people directly?) |

That's what this thread was for, Lagie-dear.
Next October I'll send out PMs though. |

Gah. Its been a bad day for Mini-challenge links.
I gave them the correct one but for some reason it has all this jumble after it, 2012/4/blah blah blah. And its the wrong link. I gave them the correct one, originally. I don't know why its done that. This post has been edited by Kanaye on Apr 21 2012, 07:37 PM |

I finished the 24 hour read-a-thon! Did anyone else?
I finished 5 books and read for a total of 17 hours and 22 minutes. That's worse than last time! *pout* Well, I didn't listen to any audiobooks this time. I'm now exhausted. Forgive me as I pass out.... |

Even if it's worse than last time it's still great, Kanaye!
I kind of finished. I decided to go to sleep around hour 13 (2 am for me). And started again once I got up. I haven't found a way of sleeping in so that when the read-a-thon starts I've recently had 6-8 hours of sleep. It's impossible for me to wake up later than 9-10 am This post has been edited by Raistlin24 on Apr 22 2012, 07:28 AM |

That means you missed my Mini-challenge! *pretends to sniff*
I'm a night person, I'm used to staying up all night reading. Waking up at 8am and having to function was hard. I was fine once I hit about 6pm. I love the read-a-thon cause I actually accomplish something by doing it. |

I wish there was one in the summer months, it'd be easier for me.
I actually did better than last year, I think. (can't double-check because the blog I used last October is gone TT_TT) |
