Yes, it is! I also enjoying perusing all those stats every once in awhile.

I just messaged him to see if he might add something to that second spreadsheet to make it clear that's the list for the lit club eligibility (I'm not sure he even knew before; he might've just made that particular Complete List spreadsheet as a repository of all prior selections).

It's so rare this even comes up though, and now that I think of it, with that list only growing I think we amended that guideline to only include prior book selections anyone in the lit club was originally there for and speaks up about during the nominations. So someone can get away with nominating a prior selection if no one says anything about it, heh. In current practice this still pretty much excludes any prior lit club selection, and any other club selection after at least February 2011 which was when I joined the clubs, and I feel like at least one of us or another has been participating in the other book clubs each month since. I'm not sure if either of you or others here had participated earlier than February '11, but as far as I'm concerned you can have at any selections prior to that.

And for what it's worth, while looking at the list to see what month I originally joined by finding the first book I had participated in reading, I noticed only two months before I joined The Woman in White was the December 2010 general club selection, and we successfully nominated and selected that book in the lit club not all that long ago, so it's possible! That month might've been the month we discussed all this originally and altered it to our current guidelines.
