Something that I have been thinking is that we should try to have actual challenges. So this is my idea: The Rules: This week I will introduce a challenge. Those who are going to do it will post (either in a post or comment stating that they will participate) The first person to post after 7pm CST on Monday the 29th, who has accomplished his/her goal for the week, gets to assign the next challenge. The same person can’t assign a challenge more than once a month. When you make a challenge, it can be anything that is _sane_….such as everyone works out at least 5 times that week….or everyone drinks at least 64 oz of water a day that week….or everyone stays away from chocolate. I hope you get the idea. You can offer a reward if you so wish, however each person that accomplishes his/her goal for the week will get a nifty icon next to his/her name (if I can figure out how to do it) I reserve the right to deem a challenge as unhealthy or unreasonable :) You do not have to participate in these challenges. Make sense? So this week, I say “goals” (Mine would be to drink at least 20 oz of water a day, and excerise 3 times in the next week). Whatever your goal is, it should be attainable but one that you will still need to stretch yourself to accomplish—and not something that you are already doing on a regular basis. My reward to you: Its not much, but for those who reach their goals for this week can have a character named after them (or choose a character’s name-nothing crude!-)in one of my 3 universes. (Note: this is not a promise that the story(ies) will be written really quickly though! ;)
