Yearly Special Challenge

3. March

Hello everyone!

This time, instead of doing Monthly Special Challenges for every month, we are doing a Yearly Special Challenge, along with 1 monthly challenge per month, and another Yearly 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 Solo Competitive Universal Log.

(click on 'view spoiler' to see everything)

Here are the rules:

How the Challenge Works:

-For every month of the year 2022, the letters of the month will be used.
-You need to read a book, an author’s name or author's surname that starts with the same letters. Authors' middle names won't count.
-‘A’, ‘An’ and ‘The’ will count as well.
-There is no compulsion to finish all the letters, you can read as many as you want.
-If you finish reading all the letters for a particular month, you can always read bonus books.

For eg, January would be -

J - Jane Eyre
A - Becky Albertalli - Kate in Waiting
N - New Kid
U - Uglies
A - A Curse So Dark and Lonely
R - Realm Breaker
Y - Adrienne Young - Namesake

-Participants will be required to make a similar list for the month they are signing up for, and read the books from their list. It can be modified anytime.

The challenge will be conducted per month, and the letters will change depending on the particular month.

General Rules:

(view spoiler)[-This challenge has an option, you can sign up for competitive solo, non-competitive solo, competitive team, or 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.
-Books below 100 pages don't count.
-Books of any language & genre willcount.
-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 the particular month you've signed up for, but started in another month will also count.
-Reviews and buddy reads are not being counted this time.
-Graphic novels, manga, webtoons, etc will also count, as long as they are 100 pages and longer.
-Re-reads will count.
-To keep it fair, the point system will differ depending on what you sign up for, because it's harder to read several books when you are in a team, compared to the individual. The prompts will be the same for everyone. Points and results will be tracked by moderators. (hide spoiler)]

Solo (Individual)- Competitive:

-Solo (Individual) competitive participants can read as many books as they want from the letters. There is no restriction on them.
-There will be points for them.

Point System for Solo Competitive:

-Each letter you complete gets you +10 points.
-If you complete all the letters of a month, you will get +20 points, in addition to the points for each letter.
-For completing the same month name with different books each time, you’ll get a bonus of +10. This means that if you finish all the letters for your month, you will get +10 bonus points

General Point System

In addition to the points mentioned above for each category of sign up,

(view spoiler)[Books between 100-200 pages will have +10 points
Books between 201-300 pages will have +20 points
Books between 301-400 pages will have +30 points
Books between 401-500 pages will have +40 points
Books between 501-600 pages will have +50 points
And so on… (hide spoiler)]
