I know this is a couple of days early, but I missed September. So here is this month's challenge.
The goal is to earn at least 20 points
Post a recipe on this board and then add it to the recipe board. ( 1 point for each post)
Participate twice in the nightly dinner thread (1 point for two nights)
Post about a book you read in the weekly reading thread
Post you favorite pumpkin themed thing whether it be pumpkin spiced, a topiary or a Jack o lantern or pie
Start a thread (worth 2 points)
Post in a hot thread ( argumentative political, religious, Halloween date related) AND live to post again (worth 4 points each)
Post on a tv show thread
Wish happy birthday on five different days (1 point 5 days)
Post at least 10 times (10 points for every 10)
You can keep a running total in an edited post or post once a week for your weekly points. Yes point posts count toward your 10 and you can earn points in each category more than once.
The challenge does not officially start until Thursday, but warming up is a good idea or post to kept your spot here.
Finally, if you come up with a food idea to add to the challenge, please post and tag me. I may add it to this month's or wait until November, but I'd appreciate the ideas. Remember, these are lurkers and newbies so be gentle.
I meant to say good idea, but food idea works as well

Many people liked it and wanted another, but I forgot. It got some of our quieter members to jump in and get their feet wet. |

Of course the food idea would be about pumpkin - or pumpkin spice things - (not that it hasn't been done to death), but not by the shy lurkers.
(me included)

One day I will be a proper refupea and actually post on everything I have an opinion on. But I'm still shy.  |

Lurker here. Maybe I will give this a try. I don't know about posting on a hot thread though. that's why it is worth extra points and why I gave lots of other options. Not everybody has the thick skin to deal with the fallout. |

Well freecharlie, I certainly am not as "shy" as you with those 6.9k posts, but this thread was a great idea. Keep it up! |

So, here is how I've done so far - The goal is to earn at least 20 points Start a thread (worth 2 points) - 2 (actually started 2, do I get 4 points?) Post in a hot thread ( argumentative political, religious, Halloween date related) AND live to post again (worth 4 points each) - 4 (I posted in the thread about being healed by prayer, does that one count?) Post on a tv show thread - 1 Post at least 10 times (10 points for every 10) - 20 (I've posted 20 times) YAY! I've made the goal for October! |

Well let's see.. 0 - Post a recipe on this board and then add it to the recipe board. ( 1 point for each post)0 - Participate twice in the nightly dinner thread (1 point for two nights)0 - Post about a book you read in the weekly reading thread0 - Post you favorite pumpkin themed thing whether it be pumpkin spiced, a topiary or a Jack o lantern or pie 0 - Start a thread (worth 2 points)16 - Twice on one thread, 3 times on another (politics & guns) - Post in a hot thread ( argumentative political, religious, Halloween date related) AND live to post again (worth 4 points each)0 - Post on a tv show thread0 - Wish happy birthday on five different days (1 point 5 days)36 posts (apart from this one) - Post at least 10 times (10 points for every 10)I'm not exactly spreading the points around LOL but I'm getting better at posting regularly. (August's tally was 27 posts, and we've still got a third of this month to go). I don't think the challenge will really apply to me after this month, can't count myself as shy/lurker with those kinds of numbers |
