This challenge was first posted by Dawn (Kat N Hat) as a six month challenge in 2012. It was done as a Yearly Challenge for a few years. She was inspired by The Challenge Factory's Monster Challenge.

Because I am blonde, I will just clarify this challenge.

We have to start and complete 3 challenges each month as well as the 8 Quarterly/Semi-Annual and the 6 Miscellaneous challenges.

So can we use say the monthly challenge, the Standalone challenge and the Scattergories challenge for August?

Am I reading and understanding this correctly?
