If your chosen card includes Anime+ items based on score (22 and 74), sort Favorite genres and Favorite studios by weighted score and pick the genre/studio that will appear first on the list. Also make sure to include a screenshot in case we see a different order or it changes. Thank you! |

| Hey guys, Playing from mobile here so forgive me if the format is odd. I'm new to the challenge and have never posted in the forums. My question is pretty simple. May we change the difficulty level we chose for the challenge one we start/sign-up. For instance if we complete the challenge at one difficulty could we shoot for a higher difficulty? And in the opposite could we go down a difficuklty if it's not looking like we can complete the difficulty we chose. If we can change difficulty do we just update our sign-up post the same way we would to update a challenge item or is the process more involved? I searched for an answer in the rules and FAQ but I didn't see it. I may have just missed it though. I know I wrote a lot, but at it's core I think the question is pretty straightforward, my brain just needed some explanation I think. Thank you in advance!! |

| (105) Watch an anime with a human main character that is not Japanese I'm using Quanzhi Gaoshou as a participant recommendation. Can I use Xiu Ye, from one of the others, for requirement (105)? I can't find anything that says outright that he's not Japanese but considering it's based off of a Chinese web serial novel as well as well as Wikipedia saying "The series depicted the fictional esports scene in China where the story revolves around a multiplayer online video game called Glory. The series was produced by Chinese internet company Tencent.", the logical conclusion would be that he is Chinese. |

Themes couldn't be linked in the general explaination post, as the combinations differ between cards. But if you open the Challenge List in your sign-up post, themes are properly linked. HaruChoi said: Does anyone know if there is an easier way to look up anime's that don't have a license on here or am i just going to be spending weeks searching through ever anime on this site...? Sorry if that sounds rude I'm a little irritated and have just spent a few hours looking without any result. I even tried offsite stuff... Anime without Licensors are not that hard to find, maybe looking at less popular stuff would help? Though there is a bit easier way to do this, as you seem to have quite a large Plan to Watch list. Just go to your list settings and check the box next to Licensors under Anime List Settings. Then you can browse your Plan to Watch and see which anime have no Licensors. omg i love you right now. XDD thank you so much. Yeah I did come across some but they werent anime's I would have been interested in so i was getting annoyed. thank you so much for this, i see a bunch now in my plan to watch list. <3 |

| @DieRubikDie I hate to question you, but, I am uncertain that is the case. Perhaps I am misunderstanding, but, take a look at this detail that was added into the "Restriction Notes" spoiler on the sign up thread: — Duration restrictions: γγγγ— Quick Shot: duration per episode is 15 minutes or less. γγγγ— Endurance: duration per episode is 20 minutes or more. γγγγγ• Most of the items that specify a different duration than your desired restriction must be completed with your desired restriction. γγγγγγβ For example, you decide to use (58) Watch an anime with 50 or less favorites and an episode duration of 16 minutes or more that γγγγγγ finished airing before you started it. If you decide on: γγγγγγγβ "Quick Shot", your anime would need to have less than 50 favorites and an episode duration of 15 minutes or less. γγγγγγγβ "Endurance", your anime would need to have less than 50 favorites and an episode duration of 20 minutes or more. To me, Endurance sounds like you need to make ALL items with an episode duration of below 20 minutes above 20 minutes to fall in line with the restriction. I don't want to question you, and I will take anything you say seriously, however, I want to make absolutely certain that myself or yourself aren't overlooking something. Thanks, buddy. |

Keep reading that same section in the Restriction Notes: — EXCEPTIONS of items that you can't change the stated time: γγγγγγγ— Items (06-14), (56), (57) and (100). Item 10 is part of that exclusion, so you can't change the stated time for it. It needs to be 15 minutes or less per episode. |

ClassyPenguino said: For (104) Watch an anime with a main character that is a professional in their field Do Idols count for this item? The rule is that they have to get paid enough to live off that activity, so Love Live's girls wouldn't count since they're in school, but Idolm@ster ones do because they're under contract. Just apply this to whatever idol anime you had in mind and you're good to go. |

Is that ok? As long as you know the date you originally started watching the anime, and that date is what shows as the Start Date in your anime list, you can use it. Ha-Sami_J said: Hi! I’m excited for the new bingo challenge, and I have a question, if I want to swap all 4 items in the middle, how will the format look like in the bb code? I’ve read everything and I’m still confused on the matter. Also if I were to go with my neat freak restriction, how will that work with my four swapped cards? Thanks all! If you go back to the signup post where you copied your original BBCode, you'll find a list of all the extra items you can swap in, with their code. Just copy the code for each new item you're swapping in and replace the middle items at the bottom of your signup post. For Neat Freak, you need to watch your 60 main items all in numerical order; you can watch your 4 middle items separately from this order, but those 4 items must also be watched in order themselves. PokeNirvash said: Regarding the "Anime in Forum Set" header line, what if you have no avatar, or the subject of your avatar isn't from an anime? You can just put N/A. You can find this in the anime's episode history. On your anime list, click "Edit" next to the anime and then click "History". It will show you the most recent date you watched an episode. Thanks for the explaination! It helped clear the misconception I had. One more thing, do I have to mention in the bottom section that item number ## has been swapped with item number ## before turning in my form? |

Scordolo said: I have a question.Can we select the items randomly or should we go according to 8x8 line rule?Like we should choose anime only from horizontal section of the card?Or just randomly? It depends on what level you'd like to complete. If you're attempting to achieve Bingo Legend (the highest level), then you'll do all 64 items, so the lines don't really matter. However, the other 4 levels require a certain number of 8-item lines to be completed, so you'll need to watch anime that complete the number of lines for your level. Also, just to clarify, they don't have to all be horizontal lines. They can be vertical or diagonal as well, and if you overlap some lines then that lowers the number of items you'll need to complete. (again, this only applies if you're not going for the highest level) |
