You can add up to 4 new nominations, meaning that if you’re re-adding previous nominations (regardless if they’re yours or someone else’s) you can still add 4 new nominations
There is no cooldown in-between nominations
Ambiguous subtext nominations are not accepted
Nominations that are not chosen will automatically be placed in the nominations of the next round, with the exception of:
(1) Nominations that don’t get any votes
(2) The 3 least voted nominations
(3) Tied nominations will all be removed
(4) Removed nominations will have a cooling period of 1 cycle (see list )
To re-add nominations out of cooldown there is no need to remake a template or reintroduce the book
All you need to do is paste the nomination post link (which will be available in the above list in due time) and write something along “I want to re-add this”, “re-nominating this”, etc
For nominations you can re-add you can look through the following linked list
Nomination Template:
Cover image (optional)
**Title**: Put the Natively link here. | L(insert natively lvl)
**Book type**: (light novel, manga, etc)
If you only just added it to natively please add **Available formats**: physical / ebook / audiobook (delete as appropriate)
[details="Content warnings"]
If you know whether the book contains adult content or potentially triggering topics, include the information here.
[/details]
**Reason(s) for nominating:** Share the reason you are nominating this book - it might persuade others to vote for it!
Opened the club for now, since we’re only 4 people (potentially 3) I’ll later add the template and 2 polls to be organized about what we allow and what we don’t and I think we don’t need any more until we have more people?
Apparently you and I see bookclubs very differently.
I’m just used to the WaniKani book clubs where people nominate whatever they want whenever they want and it’s never been a problem. And people usually get 5 votes.
Regarding ambiguous subtext, I voted “no” because pretty much every Manga Time Kirara series has subtext and I don’t really consider them yuri.
I’m under the impression so far that whatever people feel like suggesting, we don’t really have much people to be picky and to be frank all my suggestions are gonna be manga
I dont mind writing some down regardless of nominations lol
the one I was thinking about is called 這い寄るな金星 (frankly from the summary you would think it is but I can’t find the tag?? baka-updates said it has “GL subtext” hence the ambiguous thing)
another one that is vibes but nothing explicit is マザーグール, but that one I’m not sure about nominating since it’s a lot more of a “survival world” themed, hence wasn’t sure it’ll fly (edit; so according to baka-updates it is Shoujo ai and not just vibes)
edit: and then I forget to put a maybe option
if you’re a maybe plz reply so I know you’re there I guess? mainly so I can know who voted and didn’t in polls before I close anything
edit2: going through the votes from polls compared to here I already know that seanblue is a maybe, and I’m guessing Azusa and cat are as well (until they vote a yes or no lol)
Michiru and her toddler son move in with Michiru’s ex-girlfriend Maya after Michiru’s husband’s death. I really like this one - it has a gentle and serious feel, and the question of whether it’s a good idea for Maya and Michiru to get back together isn’t one that can be quickly resolved. (I’ll be honest and say I don’t LOVE the ending, but the first few volumes are very good.)
One of my favorite Japanese authors wrote a novel about a girls’ fight club that apparently at least has lesbian vibes and I’ve seen a few reviews refer to it as “yuri,” so I’ll probably investigate it a little more closely before I officially put it up for a vote (also I might want to go ahead and read it just so I can do content warnings, because when she goes hard on dark content she goes pretty hard on dark content.) Somehow I have never read this! But it might be a good opportunity!
