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

This a >>>> proposed <<<< format for our 2019 version.

The challenge has not started yet.

There is a discussion in another thread where you can make suggestions:
2019 Alphabet Soup Challenge - Preliminary discussion

------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to the 2019 A-L-P-H-A-B-E-T S-O-U-P Challenge!

February 1 – December 31 2019


1. General outline

The goal is very simple:

Read 26 books, each one starting with
a different letter of the alphabet.

2. Starting

To start, comment on this thread with the 26 English Alphabet letters in a column and the other two necessary details, difficulty level and score.

See the example below (message 2), which you can just entirely copy and paste to your comment message. Edit the information according to your choices.


3. Choosing your difficulty level


Choose the level you want to compete at. Indicate it at the top of your comment, as in the template in message 2.

And yes, you can change the level any time, up or down, if you feel your first choice was not the right one for you.

If you ever decide to change, just go back to your message and edit the level previously informed (from difficult to medium for instance). Then post a message at the END of this thread to let us know you changed.


3.1. Level 1 – DIFFICULT


> At this level you can use EITHER

- the FIRST LETTER OF THE FIRST WORD of the book title

OR

- the FIRST letter of the author’s LAST name.

You MUST choose one of these two criteria.


> Wildcard: only one can be used


3.2. Level 2 – MEDIUM


> At this level you can use BOTH

- the FIRST LETTER OF THE FIRST WORD of the book title

AND

- the FIRST letter of the author’s LAST name.

You can use both criteria, mixed, like title for one letter, author for another.


> Wildcards: two can be used


3.3. Level 3 – EASY

> At this level you can use ANY OF the following criteria:

- the FIRST LETTER OF THE FIRST WORD of the book title (and you can also use or ignore, as you like, “A”, “An”, “The”, etc.

- the FIRST letter of the author’s FIRST name.

- the FIRST letter of the author’s LAST name.

> Wildcards:

- FOUR can be used.
- They can be either "number titled" books or any book that has the letter placed anywhere either in the title or in the author's name.
- Participant only has to indicate the use of a book as a wildcard by adding "(wildcard)".

4. Scoring

When you finish reading a book starting with a particular letter, you need to do two things.

First, score your book! Next to the applicable letter, type

a. the title of the book (in a link format, like this: R - Robinson Crusoe

b. If you chose to go by author's name, include the title of the book read as well:
Z - Markus Zusak (The Book Thief)

b. the date you finished reading the book (format: December 31)

Second, update your score! At the top of your comment, post your score out of 26 (ex. 3 letters read would be 3/26).

You should EDIT ONLY YOUR ORIGINAL COMMENT, please do not start a new comment.

No need to post a message whenever you update a book. BUT you have to:

1. Keep the score updated. People tend to forget to do this, but this is how we track who has finished.

2. Post a final message at the end of the thread when you finish. Just say "I finished my challenge. Message 1234".


5. Editing your challenge score in your message

> Find your comment in the challenge thread.

See how to find your comment in message 3 below.

> On the bottom right of your comment, there should be four hyperlinks:

"reply | edit | delete | flag". Select "edit".

> Add your completed book per above instructions.

> Click the "Edit Post" button once you are done.


6. Which books count for which letters?


6.1. The “FIRST LETTER OF THE FIRST WORD of a book title” rule.

> The articles “The”, “An” and "A" do NOT count for "T" and "A". Please use the SECOND word in the title

Except at level 3- Easy.

Example: “The Book Thief” should score for the letter “B”.


6.2. Reading books in a language that is not English

> How you score the book is up to you.

> You can use the original title, the title of the translation from English you’re reading, or the translation into English of the original title, when there is one.

> Similar article rules ("The", "A") apply. Use the edition you actually read, and link to that one.

Example: “El Cuento de la Criada”, translated to Spanish from “The Handmaid's Tale” can count as “C” or “H”, depending on which edition you link to in your comment.

6.3. Wildcards

> If you read a book with a title that starts with or is a number, consider this your WILD CARD - you can use that book for any letter in the alphabet.

Examples: “1984”, “1Q84”, “2001: A Space Odyssey”

Words that are numbers DO NOT count as wild cards (“One”, Two”, etc.).

6.4. Books in a series

Books in a series with books all starting with the same letter but with a clear subtitle should be approached like this:

> If you only read ONE book, then the very first letter (like H) OR the first letter of the subtitle (S, in the example below).

2. If you read more than one, then only the first letter of the subtitle (like "S" for "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone").

But in this case no "H"!


7. Are we keeping a tally?

That will appear in one of the "reserved" messages from message 4 below.

Three separate tallies, actually - one for each level.


8. When can I join?

You can join the challenge at ANY TIME in 2019.


9. Which books are eligible?

Within the the rules for your choice of level, books you finished reading in 2019, including those read in January - actually, all those you have read in 2019 before taking up the challenge.

>>>> Template - copy and paste to your message if you like <<<<

It is important to use the standard format, it helps the moderators.

How to find your message in the thread

(It may seem simple at the beginning, but soon there will be many pages).

Some ways suggested before by our members.

1. Every message has a number. Every page has 50 messages. So, memorize that your comment is in message "X" on page "Y".

How to go to that page? See the small numbers on the top and bottom of every page (“previous 1 2 3 4... next”)?. They're links. Click on your page number, there you go. :-)

2. Remember your message number, each page displays 50 messages, with a simple math you can find which page is your post. Press Ctrl+F and type your name in that page so that the page scrolls to your post immediately.

3. Remember your page number, and follow the previous steps

4. Go to your post, click on the date posted at the right corner, the link that opens will be a direct link to your specific post. You can copy the link to an external note, or you can post it as a comment in your profile so that you can access it easily next time.
