April- June: 3-Month Challenge-

Hello everyone, this year in addition to the monthly challenges, we are doing a Yearly 3 Month Long Challenge. Our plan is to conduct 4 challenges of this sort in 2022. We are also doing a Yearly Special Challenge.

I put a lot of stuff in spoiler tags for easy navigation. If you are on the app, things will show up automatically without clicking on 'view spoiler'. I also know the rules are long, so feel free to ask any questions. :)

This is the Universal Log for Solo Competitive.

(click on 'view spoiler' to see everything)

GENERAL RULES:

(view spoiler)[-This challenge will take place during January, February, and March. For each month, a certain sign/gemstone will be featured and participants will earn double points for completing prompts in that category. These three months will focus on the air signs.
-You can sign up for all three months, but if you feel that might be too much to commit, then you can sign up for only one month, or two months. For eg- You can sign up for only January, or January and February, or all three: January, February & March.
-This challenge has an option, you can sign up for competitive solo, non-competitive solo, competitive team and non-competitive team. You can sign up for only one of the above, to avoid confusion, but you can change your sign up per month. For eg; you can sign up for Solo Competitive in January and Team Non-Competitive in February, etc. Just specify.
-Participants are required to read books from the prompts listed below.
-Prompts cannot be repeated.
-Books below 100 pages don’t count.
-Books of any language & genre will count.
-Books can be read in any format and the cover must be counted according to the edition read.
-If you are reading an audiobook, then count the cover of the same edition and the page number of another edition.
-Books that you finish in January, February or March, but started in another month will also count.
-Reviews and buddy reads are not being counted this time.
-Graphic novels, manga's, webtoons etc will also count, as long as they are 100 pages and longer.
-Re-reads will count.
-You can complete as many prompts from the list as you want, and you do not have to complete all of them.
-To keep it fair, the point system will differ depending on what you sign up as, because its harder to read several books when you are in a team, compared to individual. The prompts will be the same for everyone. Points and results will be tracked by moderators. (hide spoiler)]
