I'm guessing that the Contest will start in a few days, and I suppose there will be the usual concern over whether or not a new purchase will end up being a kepub.

Well there's an interesting Article you may want to view over at The Digital Reader, the plugin has now been updated.

And in the comments Rosie has identified the new inclusions.

Bleh once again I only bought 1 book from Kobo this past month and that was only because the 50% discount code worked in India. I'm not very hopeful that the new contest will be any better than the last one

The contest are unpredictable. The last one was indeed the worst I can remember, but I hope for better next time.

My guess is that the distribution of codes may change a little, but that as part of the general tightening up that allows contest codes to be used only in Canada, the UK and US, we won't see again the days when high discounts were easily gamed, nor high multi-use or multi-account codes.

It was always too good to last forever. I was surprised it lasted as long as it did.

You are quite right.

Off-topic posts have now been deleted.

Take the coding [program] posts to your thread (of your own making) or to a relevant ongoing thread.

Any further off-topic posts will be deleted without further comment.

Each 25%, 35%, and 50% discount code is valid for a one time use. One 25% off code per person. One 35% off code per person. One 50% off code per person. Discount will be confirmed at checkout once code is applied. Offer valid from October 17, 2014 at 12:00 AM EST through October 20, 2014 at 11:59 PM EST.

Codes don't appear to work on books not on the lists (that I've tried them on, anyway). The selection for each is decent, though, with some relatively new releases. I could be wrong, but they're mostly indie- and self-pubbed. And mainly romance.

This starts FRIDAY--so if it is not FRIDAY where you are, the codes may not work at all, but they should work starting Friday on the various listed books. The lists for each are about three pages long (you have to hit show more results to see them all).

There's some decent backlist sf/fantasy in those sale-eligible lists from Judith Tarr (ISFDB, one of my favourite historical fantasy and alt-history authors) and Irene Radford (ISFDB) and Doranna Durgin (ISFDB). That said, it may be more worthwhile to wait for one of BookViewCafés periodic 50% off direct-buy sale specials for those titles, which is how I picked up my Tarrs previously.

Friday where I'm at, yeah. Kobo follows EST, but I managed to use the codes anyway.

I thought you probably were Friday, but mentioned it because sometimes people try the codes without realizing the sales are time-restricted. Kobo has been pretty consistent with the weekend sales not running over or under, etc.
