Reading Race!
Ok, guys! the...

Ok, guys! the last time I tried this it didn't go through so... here we go again! anyone here that loves reading competitions? Everyone has to enter by September 12. here's how it works: I'll post a certain amount of pages that everyone has to read by a certain date (and please, no pages with words the size of an elephant or with hardly any words on it). whoever finished it on time wins! if two or more people finish, then whoever had the most time leftover wins! So remember how much time you had left. have fun!

The 1 was supposed to be an exclamation mark, I just forgot to capitalize it. The meaning of "bottomed" means that I sent it to the bottom. Go see the ultimate guide to the CB if you need help. Sadly, I've forgotten the link.

Oh, I'm sorry I completely forgot!! Ok, by September 17th, everybody has to have read 4,000 pages. Got it? By the way, the person that posted the date and pages, in other words the last time winner, can't win. Good Luck!

Also, when/if you finish, post Reading Rocks!, and how much extra time you had left.

Hey guys. Since nobody re-joined, I'm going to start another one. From now, September 24th, until September 29th, you must read 3,500 pages. Got it? If you're doing this round, please post: I'm in! For every day that less than 3 people enter, I add another day. When you're finished, please post reading rocks!, and how many more pages you got to read in addition to the 3,500 pages that are required. The person that completed the amount of pages in time and has the most extra pages wins, and decides the deadline and amount of pages required for the next round. If nobody finishes in time, a day or two will be added. Everyone got it?
