2013 Colossal Challenge

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

2013 Colossal Challenge

Inspired by The Challenge Factory's Monster Challenge


January 1 2013 to December 31st 2013

Being a group dedicated to challenges, it seems only fitting to make a challenge of the challenges themselves. To accomplish this challenge you will need to complete ALL tasks in each category from TLC Challenges. If you complete challenges for another group to use in the Miscellaneous category here, you must provide the link to the Challenge thread as well as your completed list. When you finish you will have completed 50 challenges for the year. Good luck!

Marie wrote: "Hi Dawn, I have a couple of questions about this challenge.

1. Do you have to complete the monthly cable challenge or can it be two of the mini-challenges? Can you count the same mini-challenge twice in a month if you do it twice (like the Broaden Your Horizons one, reading 4 books instead of two)?

Any challenge in the monthly section will work. Just for the sake of making it challenging, it should be two seperate challenges. You can use the ducks in a row only for the second month when you complete it.

2. For Quarterly/Semi-Annual, can we go past the time frame to complete it but complete it late?

To count it here as a completed challenge you should complete it within all the rules of that challenge. There will be more challenges added to this section as the year goes on.

3. Can some of the Misc. challenges come from this group as well or must they all be from other groups? Basically can we use anything we don't use in another category, no matter the type of challenge?


You are right, the Misc challenges can come from anywhere.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

I added a note to the spell outs. For spell outs using more than 100 books they can be started before 2013

So if you started a longer spell out this year you can cary over to finish in 2013. such as the a-z spell outs or the gem of a challenge.

The 10 in the Misc. section can be from other groups.

[JenniferJ]

Dawn, can we use the Quarterly/Semi-Annual Challenges that are posted now like say The Quarterly Holiday Challenge...that started in November but it doesn't end until February.. Since I started it in November can I still use it for this?

Yes, since our quarters don't line up with the year.
