[COMPLETE] The Last Secrets by John Buchan - dc

I'm surprised you could not assign the reader to the new section. I'll ask other MCs about that.

edit: Did you put 04 not 4 as the section number?

Did you put 04 not 4 as the section number?

Yes I did. Thanks for checking into it for me.

Buchan is a straightforward, easy-to-read author who tells a good story. Perhaps that's because he also wrote mysteries (39 steps, Greenmantle, etc.) which necessarily are aimed at the, um, "popular" market.

It's a great story...

The number in the filename should be 04. Reupload with the corrected filename and change the link in the MW. I just noticed that the filename for section 3 also needs to be corrected (03 not 03-1). Again reupload file with the corrected filename and then change the link in the MW.

[Steven Seitel]

Okay, fixed, thanks. Don't know what I was thinking. The MW should be right, now.

Do you think that's why I couldn't assign myself as reader to the new section? Still puzzled about that.

Edit: I still "don't have permission to access" the project screen. Do I need that to add my name to a section?

[craigdav1]

Thanks for correcting the filenames.

I still "don't have permission to access" the project screen. Do I need that to add my name to a section?

No, that is done on the Section Compiler page. At some point though the Project Screen page can only be accessed by the MC.

PL of Sections 0-4 is okay.
I've great admiration for these explorers who ventured out for years and usually to unknown destinations. I struggle to navigate with Google Maps

I struggle to navigate with Google Maps

I have the same problem. That's why I use Gaia GPS as my main navigator.

PL of section 5 is fine.

There is something truly unreal about seeing snow in Africa! And sadly climate change makes it disappear ever more quickly.

I used Gaia for some interesting cross-country hiking in Oregon and it worked well!

Dave, FYI: Chapter 05 of the book is another very long one; I've broken it into two approximately equal parts, Sections 06 and 07. This time I had no trouble assigning myself as reader. Don't know what went wrong before, but it seems under control now. Cheers.

Thank you, Susanne. I hope you're enjoying the adventures; I sure am.

I think you, as DPL, get to mark PL OK in the Magic Window. I understand LV frowns on a Reader marking his own efforts as "OK." Can't understand why.

Dave: Do you get some sort of award when you make your 25,000th post?

[craigdav1]

LV doubles my salary.
