@ScarletCelestial

For the studio - Doga it should be fine because of this :

https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1504823
And nothing says anything against using that Creator - Studios challenge in the grey text under the item which is "This submission for September 2025 received the fewest number of votes. Always a shame to lose a monthly and never get to use the same idea again"...
If I still need to watch something else for creator it's too late... or maybe I can still watch Kimi to, Nami ni Noretara for noitama even if we're in November I guess ?
I don't really care anyway about the points, for me it's completed and fine as it is.

Also for the second point I didn't "removed the links" it wasn't in it at all since I copy pasted the list iself without code, you've never asked to add it manually before...
So anyway, I added the links and I said I chose item #2 and "mask" already so nothing else to say here.

@ScarletCelestial Hi, It's right there; linked in fact.

@acestrawbs
Which character did you use for Sayonara Watashi no Cramer?

@ScarletCelestial Fixed Suou, Sumire

@ScarletCelestial

Updated turn-in and sign up post to include the item chose.

I chose the third option,

"that has more than 1 episode but less than 11 episodes with an episode duration less than 24 minutes but more than 10 minutes"

@RayalitySaga
Which tag did you use for Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children?
Mayu is not a Main Character in AKB0048: Next Stage.

@ScarletCelestial For the Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children entry, I used the "male character who has long hair" tag.

As for AKB0048: Next Stage, I just changed the character to "Chieri Sono". I hope this still works!

@RayalitySaga Resolved! Watch an anime with a male character who has long hair threw me since the link wasn't included (please make sure tag links remain intact in future) and it wasn't the full item. Please be mindful of this!

@Titadou
On the subject of the first item:
　— ... that is Creator Based
　　　State the challenge used (excludes Alpha-Producers, AniSongs, Seiyuu, Seiyuu Chain, Staff Chain, Studios, Top 100 Seiyuu).

Anime must have been watched during the monthly period, which is in October.

On the subject of the links: I've been calling this out consistently for months for Second Chances challenges, Staff Favourite Items etc. because the more information provided the easier it is for inspectors to actually find the anime in question.

Please let me know if you intend to downgrade to Standard.

@BIshamon-chan
I have noticed that the your updating history looks bizarre. Please ensure that you update anime more regularly, so that is clear to inspectors how much anime was watched in a particular time period. This counts as a warning.

Please see the rules on suspect behaviours here.

Your challenge has been validated fully in this case.

@DebiPS Your screenshot link is still broken.

@ScarletCelestial
Could you please specify why my updating history looks bizarre? I sometimes don't update number of watched episodes as I watch them, but I always make sure to set start and finish dates correctly... Is it perhaps because I didn't watch anything for almost whole month and just cramped everything in last few days?

Sorry to bother you, but I want to know what to do differently next time :). I actually considered giving up this month, but decided to mobilize myself and spent my whole free time past few days watching anime just to make it before midnight... So now I'm a bit hurt that I'm suspected of cheating 🙁

@JTtheLlama

First Warning
I have noticed that the your anime updating history looks bizarre. Notably, Turn A Gundam being updated at a much faster frequency (around 10-15 minutes) compared to the episode length (20-25 minutes). This breaks our rules related to suspect behaviours. Turn A Gundam is also invalid as a result.

Please provide a reason as to why the history looks like this for Turn A Gundam.

@Yamcha17

Your challenge has no end date, please set it.

@ScarletCelestial I updated the screenshot image on my sign up post, but I also update in this screenshot link.

@DebiPS OK Apologies, missed this, but I took another look but the screenshot link is still broken in the sign-up post.

@JmePenseBonne

Your challenge end date should be October 31. You started and finished Rifle Is Beautiful and Kingyo ga Nigeta after the listed October 22.

@YayakoChii

Haha yeah, not quite sure how I made that mistake. Fixed now.
