Valentine's Day Romance Quiz 2011! - A Meeting of Minds

***Pam*** · Jan 21 2011, 12:52 PM

As we did two years ago with The Lady, this Valentine's Day we will be having another Romance Quiz, this time on Stitch In Snow. If you don't have SiS don't despair! The quiz will be half SiS and half based upon couples across Anne's worlds. It will be scored, but there will be no prizes (except bragging rights.) Date: February 19-20

**Cheryl** · Jan 21 2011, 01:20 PM

And if you've always wanted to read Stitch in Snow but never gotten around to getting your hands on it, you have a month -- plenty of time to buy and have it shipped or order through interlibrary loan, and then read before the quiz!

It really is a charming romance, with a dash of mystery thrown in.

Lily · Jan 21 2011, 03:07 PM

OOOOO! I got it!

kevia · Jan 21 2011, 08:58 PM

YAY! I have it, too!! I've always really liked that one. Looking forward to the quiz!

P'ter · Jan 22 2011, 12:37 AM

Me also

***Pam*** · Feb 11 2011, 02:32 PM

One week people! Hope you're reading up.

Lily · Feb 11 2011, 02:58 PM

I hope it is posted before I go away for the w/e so I can print it off and take it with me

When will it be posted? If it's the 19th I'll miss it

Well not altogether but my time to work on it will be more limited

***Pam*** · Feb 11 2011, 04:40 PM

Lily, when do you need it posted by? We might be willing to post it earlier.

Samsara · Feb 11 2011, 10:15 PM

Cool, I have a copy of it! Plus I've never read it, so now I have the perfect excuse!

That's very kind of you to consider that.

Not being quite sure what time zones you are in, perhaps if I say I am 13 hours ahead of GMT, that might be easiest for you to work out

jube · Feb 12 2011, 08:15 PM

If you put it up Friday and we have it in by Monday that would work for me too but it's up to staff. Suggestion only.

**Cheryl** · Feb 18 2011, 01:29 PM

It is now posted!

Lily · Feb 18 2011, 04:00 PM

Brilliant! Thank you. That'll fill in the inevitable quiet times of being away from home.

jube · Feb 19 2011, 01:54 AM

Not sure if how well my hand will be typing up the answers as it decided to blow up after being stung by a bee yesterday so I'll have a shot at it but not sure if I'll post them in or not. ouch.

***Hans*** · Feb 19 2011, 03:50 AM

Ouch Jube, that sounds bad. But, a good chance to use the other hand!

Good luck everybody

jube · Feb 19 2011, 06:15 AM

Yes the conversation on facebook was quite entertaining by the end of it

jube · Feb 19 2011, 06:16 AM

I forgot to ask, do we send the answers to the email address or do we pm Cheryl / Pam the answers?

**Cheryl** · Feb 19 2011, 12:14 PM

Instructions are at the end of the quiz.

jube · Feb 20 2011, 01:52 AM

Ok, thanks Cheryl.

Unfortunately I'm unable to find my book and with the way my hand's blown up, I think I'll give it a miss this weekend. If I get a chance to do so during the week and find my book and answer the questions, I'll have a go at it but too tired and stuffed to think straight properly at the moment. Good luck to those who are participating

Samsara · Feb 20 2011, 08:48 PM

I'm afraid the quiz sort of slipped my mind... I got a little carried away buying AMC books instead of answering questions on them....

kevia · Feb 20 2011, 10:00 PM

Just sent my answers. You didn't say to put any identifying information in there, so I didn't. I'm assuming you'll just answer to the email addy. Then I got to thinking maybe I should have. Is it alright as is, or should I send a new one with identifying information in it?

Lily · Feb 20 2011, 11:12 PM

I was away an extra day! But home in time to post my answers.

P'ter · Feb 21 2011, 06:07 AM

Lost my internet connection so I had to visit the library. PHEEWW!

**Cheryl** · Feb 21 2011, 08:43 AM

I should be able to figure it out Kevia.

If anyone misses the deadline but still wants to enter, go ahead. The official winner will need to have gotten answers in on time, but we'll wait a couple weeks to release the answers so you still have time!

jube · Feb 21 2011, 11:00 PM

Thanks Cheryl, I may need it after being to the doctor's today. I needed a bit of R & R after being stung by a bee last week and my hand hasn't quite got over it yet.

**Cheryl** · Mar 1 2011, 10:05 PM

I will get the entries scored soon. Shaking the virus I currently am fighting would help soon come sooner!

***Hans*** · Mar 2 2011, 02:43 AM

Oh dear, we wish you a fast recovery Cheryl!

kevia · Mar 2 2011, 08:00 PM

So much illness is going around. Hope you are better real soon!!
