SunflowerDaisho said: The point of the challenge is to not skip a single series to "force" people to watch things that might have otherwise not. If the second season or on is recommended, you can do to the earliest unseen season of the series and watch that. Continue the recommendation from the season you actually watched (but try to make a note that this "twist" occured).I have a quick question regarding the Recommendation Challenge. If the next series in the list that you have not seen is a direct sequel to a title you have not previously watched, can it be skipped or not? Could you watch the first season in it's place instead or would you have to essentially watch both seasons before continuing on? As an example, let's say you started with Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso and the next recommended series you have not completed is Clannad: After Story. If at this point you have not seen the first season, Clannad, can you then skip Clannad: After Story and go to the next recommended series on the list? Which in this case would be Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo. If not, can you substitute Clannad for Clannad: After Story? Or would you essentially have to complete both seasons before moving on? I apologize if that was a bit long-winded, I just don't want there to be any confusion regarding my inquiry. So as an extra clarification, if Teekyuu 7 was recommended and you'd seen Teekyuu 1-4, you'd jump to and watch Teekyuu 5 and continue on from its recommendations. |

| For the World Tour challenge I wanted to check on one show that wasn't in the list to see if it would qualify or if it should be added to the list, specifically the Koihime Musou series/sequels. Considering it falls under the Romance of the Three Kingdoms umbrella like Souten Kouro which is listed, and based on Fushigi Yuugi another entry it seems like there is some room for fantasy, so that being said would it qualify? |
| For the Aired 2014 Challenge, can Hanamonogatari count as one of the 10 anime for that season? It's a TV series, but only 5 episodes. |

| With regards to the movie per day,series per 2 days, etc challenges are we required to use a midnight to midnight day or can we choose a different 24 hour period to use as our "day" such as noon til noon? The reason I ask is I work nights and have a second job that I do once or twice a week. This means that at least once per week I work from 12am to 9am, sleep from 9am to 5pm, then immediately work my other job from 5pm to midnight leaving me literally zero time to do anything other than eat, sleep and work. However if I can count noon til noon as my day I could watch a movie right at noon at the start of day one before going to sleep then work, sleep,work and watch my next movie after my second job at 12 hours into day two. Otherwise I would never be able to make it to 10 days for the easy challenge let alone 40 for the conquered. Also, for the challenges that can be repeated for a 2x badge, do you also receive 2x the points or just the sexier badge? |

JayArcher said: I usually only pay attention to the start/end dates. However, I'm flexible if notified - meaning, if you add your explanation (probably in a spoiler) in the post where you're keeping track and you include the actual times you completed things, I won't deny/complain. I understand people have a life so I don't want to make things more difficult, so, again, being notified that this is how you're treating each "day" I'm OK with that.With regards to the movie per day,series per 2 days, etc challenges are we required to use a midnight to midnight day or can we choose a different 24 hour period to use as our "day" such as noon til noon?

Also, for the challenges that can be repeated for a 2x badge, do you also receive 2x the points or just the sexier badge? Especially since time zones sometimes makes people's challenges "skewed" when I view them compared to the individual - do I try to keep those kinds of issues in mind when reviewing people's completed challenges. 2x will give you a badge that basically just flashes two images of the series that's already being used for that challenge/difficulty. For points, they will be "doubled" meaning if you already completed the challenge once and had 3 points, you will get another 3 points (for 6 total) for completing a second time. - Keep in mind this is still technically not released or fully setup yet... mostly due to low demand haha but that is how it will be handled once the need/demand has arised. KimmyChii said: Honestly, it counts as a special even though it's long. Whatever MAL says goes (just because you need a point of reference for these types of issues). However, if you already used it in the movie per day challenge without realizing this and it's now too late to go back and fix (because it's the MPD challenge... lol) I will allow it because it's the length of a movie, and because you were more or less caught "unaware" (and because I'm not a complete ass/stiff haha)does Miyori no Mori count as movie? or only as a special? thought it was a move tho (it's almost 2 hours) otherwise i watch an other movie ;3 |

| For The Movie-Per-Day Challenge, I want to watch Gintama: Yorinuki Gintama-san on Theater 2D but I'm wondering if I have to watch it in one or two days since it's two episodes (1 hr. 36 min. per ep.) ? Thank you. |

| A few questions about x2 challenges. Rules say all the difficulties have to be completed once before doing the challenge a second time. That means say, for the ONA Exposure Challenge, I have to do the Easy, Medium, and Hard levels one time each before I attempt the Hard level a second time? Just want to make sure I'm reading this rule right. And are each of the difficulties repeatable for x2 once they've been completed the first time? As in, can Easy/Medium/Hard/Conquered be completed for x2 on each for points or is it only applicable for one difficulty? For example, I repeat the hard difficulty for the x2 but also repeat easy and/or medium for more points. |

You have to finish easy, medium and hard (and conquered if there is one) before you can do any of those for the second time. And yes, you can repeat all difficulties twice for reward which means 6 or 8 in total (depends if there is conquered or not). |

| Probably a stupid question but I'm new to the club. I signed up for 2 challenges by just commenting the on the challenge thread. Is that all I need to do? And, all the challenges have points at the top. What do those mean? ex: 4 points... |

| Thanks for the clarification! abystoma2 said: When I conceived the challenge I did mention that Rx would be the exception to the TV only rule for that exact reason, so I'd imagine that would be the case.About the Content Rating Tv Challenge: "TV types only", Rx (Bonus) is an exception to this, right? Since there are no Rx anime with tv type. Thnx4dafood said: Yes that's all you need to do, but it's not necessary to post in the thread as a way to "sign up" for them. Some people "sign up" for them by putting the challenge in their blog. It's all up to you as it's personal preference.

Is that all I need to do? And, all the challenges have points at the top. What do those mean? ex: 4 points... The points indicate the difficulty of the challenge. The more points a challenge is worth, the more difficult it is. A challenge that's worth only 1 point would be easier to achieve than one that's worth 4 points. Those points are earned when you complete the challenge and help determine your rank against other members in the Hall of Fame. You can also get rewards for reaching a certain amount of points. More info about the points system and the rewards can be found here. |

Thnx4dafood said: and @abystoma2 - I've adjusted it to be anything with 6+ episodes. So yes, for the bonus it's an exception to the TV Type.There are no TV series that are Rx, so how do we get the bonus...? @DarkFaerie - Dan was correct =) and thanks for explaining/answering Thnx4dafood's question <3 |
| I somehow missed the boat of what "Conquered" is. I was looking at the Special-Per-Day one that went live and saw "Conquered 4 Points" but in the difficulty section is only goes up to "Hard" with "30 series". Is Conquered 40 series and just not listed as such OR is it doing all difficulty levels (ex. doing easy=10, med=20, hard=30 so conquered=10+20+30=60)? |
| So I noticed some people posting forms in all difficulties, do we have to start with easy and work up or is that just if you want extra points? |
|
Thnx4dafood said: You can do any difficulty you want. You don't have to do all difficulties or start with a certain difficulty if you do decide to complete them all. Some just like to do that for the extra challenge and to get more points. You can "upgrade" your completed challenges however. The Challenge Turn-In thread can explain that aspect better than I can.So I noticed some people posting forms in all difficulties, do we have to start with easy and work up or is that just if you want extra points? |

lanblade said: Conquered points are usually listed if it is available for that challenge. Conquered is basically just taking it one step further than hard - meaning instead of watching a movie per day for 30 days, you have to watch a movie per day for 40 days. Because conquered is seen as the "hardest" per allowed challenges, conquered badges are made on request. They're not CUSTOM (meaning no username) so anyone can use a conquered badge made technically for someone else. The Movie Per Day challenge, I think, has the most (besides the Unrated one which is, in all honesty, more of a help-MAL challenge then it is anything else lol).I somehow missed the boat of what "Conquered" is.

| I know that there are only about 30 series that have more than 15,000 drops, and about one third of those are long-running shounens. This, of course, referring to one of the requirements in the SH#02. I can find something to watch, but I know that there are a lot of people in this club that have seen a lot and may have already watched these series. Just figured I'd mentioned it since it came to my mind, and it could be an issue. |

| I'm having a bit of trouble finding Mobile Suit Gundam: More Information on the Universal Century for the Gundam challenge. I checked the sub group listed on the page, and I couldn't find it on anidb, amongst several streaming sites and nyaa. So I was wondering if there was another link I missed or if it should be switched to a bonus entry. |
| I have a couple of doubts about the World Tour Challenge, and I think exemplifying with what I'm watching right now might help putting the situations clearly. Right now I'm watching JoJo Stardust Crusaders S1, and I was wondering if it does count for the challenge. The series does start in Japan, but after a couple of episode (not even 10% of the series) the travel. The second point here is that they're constantly travel, so they've been in various countries, without really settling in any of them. Would that count for the "Others" category? There's also S1 from JoJo, which is divided in two parts: the first one is in England and the second one is in Italy. Can I choose there? |

Should be the date you registered for the challenge since it says "Cannot use previously seen" but since it also says "Currently watching is allowed" it made me wonder |
| The start date is the day you posted (whether blog or in the thread). Currently watching means anything at you were in the middle of watching on the day you posted. Anything completed as of the day you posted cannot be used. @SheyCroix - I'll double check ya posts and HoF and get it updated. Thanks @Akai_Shuichi - choose. I'd basically say just specify in the challenge you're using it for this country because it made majority episodes there or something like that. I agree JoJo should be allowed in the World Tour and that it's hard to really place lol so I'd say choose and specify the range of episodes (similar to specifying which episode abides by a trope). |
SheyCroix said: oh also it's not specified in the Adaptations Challenge, what about the length for the movies? I'm guessing more than 20 minutes? I thought lenght doesn't matter in the Adaptations Challenge, since it's not specified. |
You all need to watch Nami. |
| @SheyCroix @abystoma2 I'd prefer to say that Shey is right, but it sounds like people are already taking advantage of not specifying length ;_; I guess I needa go through all the challenges and be more specific lol So yeah, they should be longer than at least 15 minutes. |
| What exactly does "Watch a stand-alone (no related series)" for the Josei challenge mean ? No related items at all (in which case there are barely any choices at all), or no anime related items (i.e. no sequels/spin-offs/specials, but related manga series are allowed) ? |
| For the Alpha Challenges, are non-numerical characters fine for the "#" requirement? I ask because when looking under "#" on the anime search page, the .hack franchise is the first thing to show up. It neither starts with a number nor a letter. |

IMKZ said: I personally don't have an issue with using numbers only but a number of challengers are using .hack and other series like D.Gray-Man for the "#" requirement. Basically, treating it more like "non-alpha character" as opposed to just numbers.DarkFaerie said: For the Alpha Challenges, are non-numerical characters fine for the "#" requirement? I ask because when looking under "#" on the anime search page, the .hack franchise is the first thing to show up. It neither starts with a number nor a letter. Nope, must be numerical characters.

| @DarkFaerie - D.Gray-Man wouldn't count because the D is infront, but the punctuation first like .hack is fine. Anything that'd show up under the "#" in the anime search on MAL would count. |
