FlynnDewey @Melismatic That is absolutely kick-ass! Great job! 14mo
FlynnDewey @ChaoticMissAdventures No idea how you did that, but I'm at a loss for words lol. Phenomenal job! 14mo
ChaoticMissAdventures @FlynnDewey I really recommend reading anthologies - you get to count each short story as a read, and if you read a Halloween based one it is 50points. The anthology I read last week had 19 stories! So tons of points. I also seem to do really well on the weekly games, which helps. 14mo
StayCurious @ChaoticMissAdventures that‘s so amazing you‘re doing so well! I‘m going to find some anthologies for sure. Just a reminder though that Halloween stories are 25 points each, not 50. 🍁🎃 14mo
ChaoticMissAdventures @StayCurious sorry yes! Thank you! I had 2 Halloween in the anthology so I am mixing up my math 😂. Too many numbers running around!! 14mo

How're you all faring #TeamWhoYaGonnaCall?

#TeamWhoYaGonnaCall It's the first night of #Scarathlon, how are you choosing to play tonight? I'm starting my Evil Dead-athon, and playing Horror Movie Bingo! I feel The Evil Dead helped start a lot of the tropes that would come along in decades to come, so there's plenty of options on the cards!

Melismatic Definitely agree! Even tho it‘s camp, possession movies freak me out so I‘m more partial to the Evil Dead: The Musical off Broadway version 😅 hilarious and catchy 1y

So, @StayCurious reminded me that I also need to participate in making certain posts for #scarathlon. Like the TBR/W. Well, better late than never, I say. I'm a *huge* Evil Dead fan. So this year will be my Evil Dead-athon. All the movies, some comics, and hopefully the series (if I can find it!!) Will also be reading some Clive Barker and of course the buddy reads. Let's have some spooky fun #TeamWhoYaGonnaCall!!

#TeamWhoYaGonnaCall One more sleep then the spooktacular fun begins! Keep track of your points (don't forget the word search, and don't forget to time how long you read!!!) Also, keep us all informed with your reading and watching. Each #scarathlon post you make nets you 1 point. Write a review, cross things off your TBR or Bucket List, ask for movie suggestions. But most importantly: Have some frightening fun!

ChaoticMissAdventures Team any tips for a person with terrible time management, and who will read like 2 pages while in line? I am wondering if finding the audio book time and using that is considered cheating? I normally read 3-4 books at a time and am terrible at sitting for stretches of time to read. Thanks! 1y
Airykah13 @ChaoticMissAdventures I don‘t see anything wrong with using audiobook time. It‘s a good estimate. 1y

FlynnDewey @ChaoticMissAdventures Not cheating at all! Whatever you need to do to record your time. I generally set a timer on my watch. If I remember lol. 1y
bthegood @ChaoticMissAdventures keep count of time whatever way you need to and have fun -If I'm reading at different times throughout the day, in different places, than I guestimate based on total number of pages read that day 🙂 (edited) 1y
ChaoticMissAdventures @Airykah13 @FlynnDewey @bthegood thanks so much! There are so many ways for points, and it is a bit overwhelming! Going to do our best! 1y
FlynnDewey @ChaoticMissAdventures I totally get that feeling, trust me! I say, just focus on the areas you think will be more fun. Do more Readathons or focus more on the games. The points are nice, but the reading and the games are the best part for me. Don't stress about points. :D Just have fun! 1y
Melismatic @FlynnDewey I‘m keeping tabs on my reading thru the Bookly app - I find that helpful. Do we get points for hours read it is that the readathon thing? 😅 1y
FlynnDewey @Melismatic That's right! Readathons are a great way to build points, since you get them for time spent reading. And you can participate in more than one at a time! 1y

This pretty much sums up my feelings on The Bourne films. The Bourne Identity was the first true "grown-up" book I ever read, and it was a blast. The second and third are pretty good as well, though I find the climax of Ultimatum isn't as explosive as I'd hoped for. But the movies? Nah, they can kick rocks.
