Nice! Thanks for adding this!

(Tomorrow is Locked Room Mystery, btw).

No problem! And I look forward to reading it!

You're welcome!

Oh, good, I'm looking forward to locked room mystery suggestions - I've read a few, but looking around at new-to-me titles I didn't see anything that jumped out at me.

I edited it into the first post, OBD! I also fixed your initials in all the links and the thread title, because apparently I was trying to mentally rename you Obsidian Black Plague, lol. Sorry!

Jennifer, that's my fault. I had it in my head that she Obsidian Black Plague, so I called her that several times, and then noticed I was wrong!

The easiest way to do it is to type out what you want to say, highlight the part of the post you want to be the link, then click the link button at the bottom of the post box (it's the last button). That adds the tags in, and you just have to replace the capitalised "URL" in the tag with the actual page link (keep the quotation marks).

Hope that made sense. :)

Ohhh, ok, lol. I was wondering why I'd started calling her that!

I've been meaning to comment each time I update this, but I keep forgetting. Anyway, all topics posted so far, as well as the "Joint post request line" have all been edited into the OP.

You're welcome! I know these lists were helpful to me when I was making my reading list, so hopefully having them all in one place will help others as well.

Great idea.

Are people using the Discussions section of BL? (It might flag the read to others who aren't doing the bingo but might want to join individual reads...)

#21 by: Abandoned by user date: 8 years ago discussions stats

I just added a thread - so join in!
