auser Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 thank you so much for a recommendation Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. so far, the only non-shifter omegaverse I enjoyed was Slow Heat, but I would definitely like to find another author/series that would be enjoyable..

Saga Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. I have a question too. I know that the books from the same series cannot use since they share the same title and storyline, but how about books in the same series but not the same storyline or has anything to do with other books in the series at all ? For example: Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. All 12 books in this series have nothing to do with each other at all. The author just used zodiac theme to name the books. Book 3 "Gemini: The Wicked Things " is Fantasy / Fairy Tale / Witchcraft / Magic but book 9 "Sagittarius : Mr. November " is about Sport Also there are books that listed under the same series, but different storyline and different Authors for each volume such as : Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. and Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. which contained 4 book from different Author. I do a lot of upload and re-upload lately and there are many series like this, so I wonder are books from these series also against the same title rules or not. Thank you , R Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. check out AIDEN BATES and Austin Bates. All their work are in Omegaverse without shifting ;P What a hard question. If we put it like a manga compilation of many stories that have nothing to do with each other [like oneshots], but on the bigger scale of it [since they are novels]...isn't it like asking me if it's okay to read all these oneshots and fit them all into categories? You would probably say "it's not it", but this is how I see it. As for the case with different authors, it's the same with manga anthologies. '__' Tsk, I know that manga and novels are a different thing. But if I had to review them with that analogue above - it would be a firm 'no'. You can't use novels in that way. I don't know.

Racheal Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Thank you Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. for the clarification.:Red_fox: It is confusing. I didn't think about it that way before because both manga and novels anthologies are mostly short stories in the same volume. We also have many novel anthologies like Fairytales Slashed Anthology [1-8], Don't read in the closet Anthology [1-4], Love Is Always Write Anthology [1-10], Love Has No Boundaries Anthology [1-5], Love's Landscapes Anthology [1-17], so I am not sure about full-length separated novels under the same series, so I want to confirm with you.

397Haruo Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Dear @ Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. , I've started the challenge couple of weeks back and saw only the manga challenge. And now, upon coming back in here, I was surprised (like seriously surprised) to find out that there is also the novel challenge. So I have some questions regarding that: 1. If I want to participate in the novel challenge, do I still need to post a signup form? (just like I did on the manga challenge)? 2. I'm almost done with my manga challenge (yay!) but have not actually started the novel challenge (... I was planning to start after the manga). So my question is, do I still need to complete the novel challenge before turning in (like posting) my completed manga challenge on the main thread? Anyways, thanks for the help in advance.

Thank again the answer Saga Nah, to be honest I am also unsure, hence I made that anologue with manga. I opened that thread, so we can shape up and make the challenge better. As it is its very first edition, there are many things that are missing or are confusing due to not being 'thought up'. But I guess everything comes with experience. ' v ' So, if you have suggestions [not only questions], shout them my way. This is how we are going to perfect the challenge - through ideas.

Yes, we added a section for novel readers, too. But we allowed manga readers [as well novel readers] to take part in both; that way you are rewarded accordingly. As for your sign-up form, I can edit your sign-up form from 'manga' to 'both'. As we changed a bit the sign-up form, in case you noticed. We enlist which part we are going after - either manga/novel or both. Soooo, if you want I can change the 'manga type' to 'both'. I think I started repeating myself XD. As for your manga list, great to hear it! You can post it as soon as May 1st knocks on the door. And continue with your novel list. Or, you can post both of them at the same time '__' As you decide. Good luck on the novel hunt, in case you join the book challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yaoi manga lover Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Hello! I'm plaining to join the manga challenge, seems very fun, but I got a couple questions before I start: 1)Webtoons (like Blood Bank or What lies at the end) are considered manga? 2)Task 54 says to read a manga with a low rating at Bakaupdate, but what exactly is a lower rate? Lower than 7? Lower than 5? Even lower? 3)This sounds a little stupid but what's the diference between crossdress manga and trap manga? 4)Task 29 says to read a oneshot for 15 minutes max, it means I have to read the oneshot in less than 15 minutes, right? Sorry for bother with all these questions and fo my bad english. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's up to you to decide if it's low enough or not XD If I remember right, the one I read was 5 or a little less. 3) This is not stupid at all, some of us also got confused ;D You can search 'trap' in the thread ("Search Thread") and you'll see our questions and explanations about it. I hope it will help you :3 4) Yup, just a short oneshot. And it's not a bother, don't apologise for it, this thread is exactly for that - questions, discussions, suggestions, etc., so you can write about anything related to this challenge. :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you can clarify this for me No, you are not limited to reading them in one day. Some people might find it handy, that there is no limitation on that aspect. As for the other question, whether you gotta write down the other two titles you picked - again, it's up to you. But, I guess it would be more stylish and rather cool to let people know what the other two titles were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the idea that both manga and webtoon tell some story through art, but they are considered different. Besides, you will notice you have specific tasks with criteria "webtoons".

voide Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. can i pitch in my thoughts on the matter whether books under the same series can be put into different categories? so, i think saga is right. bc the clear task requirement which is not from the same title/series regardless different plot/authors. but if that task can be eliminate, then what racheal suggest can be count in. since i saw this kind of situation in other book challenge i've entered before. some challenges allowed us to use different part (book 1, book 2) into different category even tho it's from the same series (as long as it fits the required task). this is for novels/full length books challenge mostly (short story & anthologies doesn't count) thanks again, saga for creating this challenge for us. hope this challenge will continues.

Racheal Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. Do you mean full-length Novels should count even if they are in the same series? I actually didn't think about that lol the only reason I asked because the rule said Each manga/novel title can be used only once within this year's challenge. That is to say, in your list - no repetition of titles. Then I saw other member asked Saga If the books in the same series can be use in different assignments or not, and Saga did explain that "it cannot because same series is count as same title" TBH, before I read Saga's explanation, I misunderstood too because not many manga use different name for each volume, so when you say one title cannot use for more than one assignment..it is very clear. However, for novel, different name for each books in the series is more common and popular, very few use the same title for the whole series, so when the rule said "title", for novel, I think of the name of the book itself more than the series. I think many members are confused too because I see some of them use the book in the same series for more than one assignments. Also I do upload a lot of books and I noticed that there are many types of series for novel, so I want to clarify with Saga again to make sure which one can and which one can't. After read the explanation, I do understand Saga point of view about the series. I think it maybe easier to understand if we add the word "series" in the rules. [Each manga/novel title/series can be used only once within this year's challenge. That is to say, in your list - no repetition of titles. ] We will have to let Saga decide tho' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voide Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. yeah, i encountered some books/novels challenges w that rules. specific task like "do not use same titles for other categories" means you cannot use, let's say book title Prince Gambit from Captive Prince series in 2 different categories. But you are allowed to use all 3 books in Captive Prince to fit in any tasks suitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re Sure, it is fine. Re Oh, I haven't clarified it. Well, yeah. Updated on YO is fine as well. Because when you think about it, it gets updated because scanlators updated. So, yeah.

I guess I will add 'series' to the rule, then. I don't mean to be mean when I exclude 'series' but the point is to go around and have fun, like in a library - gathering all sorts of books. Think on it, when you enter a library, would you just stop before one single shelf and pick titles only from there? No, you wouldn't. Nonetheless, I will add the rules in a bit. I was also thinking that I will probably make two 'jury' teams. I will be with the manga jury, but will have to pick some novel-guru person to be the novell jury too. I haven't decided yet. Maybe once people start forwarding their turn-in forms, I will decide what to do with the two sorts of 'check-up'.
