| Probably a stupid question, but I'd like to be certain. One of my items says, "Watch an anime with a popularity lower than #700 and a total duration of 16 minutes or more." By lower does this mean a number greater than #700 as in less popular or one less than #700 as in more popular? |

By lower does this mean a number greater than #700 as in less popular or one less than #700 as in more popular? It is intended as less popular. From the challenge list explanations: (44) Watch an anime with a popularity lower than #700 and a total duration of 16 minutes or more — state the popularity it had when you started; lower popularity would be #701, #702, #703 and so on |
| I don't know if someone did this question before, so I will do: (25) Watch an anime featuring a Voice Actor who is also credited with a Theme/Insert Song Performance in the anime In this one, it needs to be directed linked or it can be something like Granrodeo singing in a anime with a Taniyama Kisho character? |

HaqmuinDox said: That's valid. Her character page says "Retsuko is a red panda who works as an accountant", so use that.I would like to confirm whether Retsuko fits the criteria for Challenge #104: An anime where the main character is a professional in their field. If so, would her profession be 'Accountant' or 'Office Lady'? |

That's Black Lady, she appears in some seasons of Sailor Moon - those are listed on her character page. So linking that character page would be the easiest. |

A few months , I was looking for that and I couldnt found any animw with the exact day. Thanks for reading <3 (Sorry for my grammar mistakes) You only need to find an anime that aired on the number, not the exact day month year. So say if you joined on the 25th, you only have to find an anime that aired on the 25th of any month, any year. So something from 25 December 2010 would count. But something from 25 April 1970 would also count. As long as the number is the same, it's valid. There are a variety of ways to find shows, you could check each season manually. You could browse a random genre and see if something aired on that number. You could also try your Plan to Watch list, there could be something valid on there as well. There used to be a list for it but it's not up to date anymore unfortunately. |

| Hey guys first time signing up for something like this so im still a bit confused on things. Though i've only made the post recently i want it to count from jan 1st so i can track my overall progress, so should i list "completed anime" as the number of shows i had seen up to that point (rather than the total as of making the post)? I also wanted to move around the code part for the colours to be at the end of each challenge as i felt this just looked nicer, while i cant see this small change being an issue to anything else, I wanted to check that im okay to make this change as im not sure if this could affect any other program reading the code at the end (or do a bunch of you guys do it manually lol?) What is the quickest and easiest way to find out details from shows to see if they match any of the bingo board? Like i don't know which to pick from all those listed and even then i would have to search every single show to find out if "a favourite actor of yours voiced 2 characters" for example. For shows requiring to watch a certain number of episodes is that just for one season? The most i've ever had in one season is 26 so god knows how id complete "Watch an anime with 75 or more episodes" |

I also wanted to move around the code part for the colours to be at the end of each challenge I'm not sure what you mean by this, but changing the colors of things is okay as long as they're still readable on light and dark backgrounds. We ask mainly that you don't change the format of the list; that would be things like size, list tags, spoiler tags, spacing, item order, etc. It makes inspections quicker for us if the forms looks as similar as possible from one to the next.What is the quickest and easiest way to find out details from shows to see if they match any of the bingo board? Like i don't know which to pick from all those listed and even then i would have to search every single show to find out if "a favourite actor of yours voiced 2 characters" for example. That's what makes it a challenge, really. Hunting down stuff that fits each item is kind of the point. A rule of thumb is that you'll find the info you're looking for on MAL, unless the item specifically links you to another site like AniDB or something.Also, there are a few partially curated lists for certain items in our official club, and of course the full item list gives detailed rules and explanations for each item that might also help. For shows requiring to watch a certain number of episodes is that just for one season? The most i've ever had in one season is 26 so god knows how id complete "Watch an anime with 75 or more episodes" Don't think in terms of "seasons". We specifically only care about each MAL entry. Basically, if it has its own separate MAL page, then it's a separate anime, for the purposes of the challenge. So something like Space Brothers (with 99 episodes) would work for the example you gave here. |

| @dierubikdie So i've only adjusted the size by a tiny tiny factor just to make the ones ive completed even clearer, so this shouldn't affect your guys work negatively at al :D Thanks for the help also <3 Still learning alot about things you can do on here as not done any before -- Also alot of the questions ask me to list scores and values "when started" tho since im doing this a bit retroactively from jan, i don't have these values. Guessing if i just list their current values (so long as they obviously meet the criteria, thats fine?) Following from that is there anyway to see past values for "completed" numbers as im nearly 90% sure when i did watch this show it was below 2,500. |

SmithyRocks said: “Watch an anime that an active participant has completed for this challenge“ Is it just anyone whose listed a show that qualifies as active or someone whose updated recently? “Watch an anime featured in an active participant's forum set“ What does that mean? 1. It's anyone who posted in the Sign-up thread (as long as they didn't withdraw) and COMPLETED the anime (has start and finish date (their end date must be before your start date)). 2. Forum set means avatar and/or signature of a user. You can see, in the sign-up post, that it asks you "Anime in the forum set" and for example, your anime would be Shokugeki no Souma as you used Takumi Aldini as your avatar ;) |

| @OhTsuru cheers for that! Yeah i knew i had heard that term mentioned before of course when i entered it at the start, just forgot xD Heres another: "Watch an anime with a human main character that is not Japanese" Would a fictional place instead count? Eg 86 - The Republic of San Magnolia. Or are you basically implying a human MC from somewhere else on (our) Earth? |

SmithyRocks said: According to the item explanation:"Watch an anime with a human main character that is not Japanese" Would a fictional place instead count? Eg 86 - The Republic of San Magnolia. Or are you basically implying a human MC from somewhere else on (our) Earth? — the nationality can be real or fictional, but it must be located on Earth; state the character and nationality; can't be half-Japanese; cyborgs are not valid So yes, fictional countries are okay, but they must be located on Earth. It looks like this anime does take place on an alternate version of Earth, so it would be valid. |

Challenge Start Date -> The date the first anime was started for the challenge, regardless of when you signed up for the challenge. This doesn't include the original starting date for the On-Hold item My first entry was of an anime that i watched in June. But apparently, after some days I found that there is an anime satisfying the challenge requirements which I completed in January. So what should be my Challenge Start Date? |
