It would be my preference to do one thread per volume. Nice and neat =)
Has worked well with the other spin offs =^_^=
Some do one per week, but Chi has small enough volumes to do one per volume =)
I’d mention that it was fixed on bookwalker at least. I’m not sure about the other ebook vendors though since I don’t use them, but I’d assume they’d be similar.
It probably depends on why it has improved (new files, fixed viewer, etc.), on whether they have the same source files (especially if it’s the cause of the issue) and maybe on whether they care enough to update or not
In any case, first post updated, thank you for the report
So~
It’s 1AM in Japan, meaning the 13th is in 23h but the poll about the start date is… tied ^^’ (for anyone reading this in the future, 4 of the 5 options have 2 votes each, the last has 0)
Should we wait a week more? Or ping the one that said they will read but not when until they answer? Or start on Friday anyway? But it will be strange if we are only two to read (@Viridithonalready read the 2nd volume and can participate though)
Sorry, I didn’t vote in that poll because I was fine with any of the dates, but for the sake of breaking the tie, I’d be most comfortable with starting on the 20th - I just recorded my vote in the poll.
I don’t mind waiting till the date that other people wanted, so we become more people =)
Moved mine to 20th, just to help reflect that.
At that point most of us are ready at least. Hopefully the few who picked later can either join then or catch up.
Ok, I’ll let the poll open a little longer (probably until Sunday around 20h UTC, it will have been a little over a week since the creation of the thread) but we’re likely to start on the 20th then
On one paw, I want to complain about having to wait but, on the other, I don’t have to, I could start reading and maybe also start preparing the vocab sheet I’ll probably create the doc later today then (not now or I’ll keep avoiding work to complete it ^^')
I don’t think having a thread per volume is very useful as we will have a thread per 3 chapters; for now, I’m following Aria the Masterpiece Home Thread example but I’m open to suggestions.
I have added the vocab sheet in the first post (with some entries for the 4 first chapters so far) as well as a reading schedule:
Week
Start Date
Chapters
Week 1
September 20th
Chapters 21-23
Week 2
September 27th
Chapters 24-26
Week 3
October 4th
Chapters 27-29
Week 4
October 11th
Chapters 30-32
Week 5
October 18th
Chapters 33-35
Week 6
October 25th
Chapters 36-38 + Special menu
The “Special menu” doesn’t have any dialogue so I think it’s fine to have it with the last 3 (real) chapters of the book.
I didn’t thought about that before but I just saw in にゃんにゃん探偵団 Home Thread – Kitty Detectives 2! that they will take a break for Christmas (and also at the beginning of December, why?)
Oh! Ok, thanks Chapter two is really short, isn’t it? (I’ll probably read the book some day (cats! ) but, right now, I don’t think I can handle more than one book at a time :x)
But even without that, some people are less available during the second half of December because they have to travel to see their family and spend time with them so it might still be interesting to have a break at that time.
There are 18 chapters in the third volume; if we start next week, we should finish the 12th of December; if we wait a week, we will finish just before Christmas.
Since @2OC3aOdKgwSGlxfz is (at least currently) the only one answering questions in this club and is asking for some time off around Christmas, we don’t have any choice but to take a break then :<
Let’s have a week-long break now (between books) to (hopefully) help @Kappa420 catch up and another one between the 20-26; otherwise we would either have 2 blank weeks after volume 3 or start vol4 and have a break after the first week :-/
