When I went back to listen to the pronunciation of "Athelney," I noticed that the original soloist recorded the start of chapters as:

Chapter XXX of the Sign of the Four by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
This Librivox recording is in the public domain

Are we meant to record that abreviated version, or the whole one of:
Chapter # of The Sign of the Four . This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information or to volunteer, please visit librivox.org." [Optional: "Read by your name."] "The Sign of the Four by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Chapter Title."

I always seem to get this one wrong, so I thought I'd double-check.
Only a soloist gets to use the shortened intro after the first chapter. You and all others in this group project use the longer intro. Hopefully I have corrected the first post to give the right information. Not a sure thing at all! And don't stop asking q uesitions. We love 'em. :D

Sure. I will extend deadline to Sept 12. If you wish more time or are have technical questions just ask. It might be best to do one chapter and upload it to get feedback for the other one.
