MDL's 2024 Challenge FAQ and Discussion

 KC Drama LOVER:

Man that's way too much of logic and maths for me. It will be way hard for me to do it again, T-T I should have asked before. I will repair my broken list now thank you for your help. Like you help me sooo much I should thank you from the bottom of my heart

You're welcome. ^.^ You can take a look at my list, maybe it can be of help. :) If you have any question, don't hesitate to ask. 

Hello :)

I'm wondering if it is possible to paste images to the forum, and somehow adjust the proportions of the images (not just the size) or crop them? 

For my challenge form, I add the cover image for each title. However Cdramas particularly have covers that are long and skinny so they really stand out. I usually solve this  manually, outside of MDL.

But I thought I might as well ask if there is an easier way within the forum's functions

Like Webdrama said, if you click on the size change icon, there's the option Height. If you type in 30 for example the height is 30 pixels. That should solve the problem with skinny covers. :) 

For 25:5 Ancient Artifact, in My Man Is Cupid, there is an ancient magical arrow that the cupid keep safely on display. There are also ancient drawings (400 years old). Do these things count under ancient artifacts?

Hello, I have a question, could you help me?

in "7. Sowing Seeds - New - First leading role 2024" what exactly should I put? Why when I click on the link there is nothing.

In this case, would a series have to be put on that has an actor in it who is debuting their career in 2024? A series that is the first role an actor has played?

Question regarding the prompt Perfume. In the drama Zhang Gong Zhu Zai Shang is a scene where a disguised character is identified because he smells like the incense from the Emperor's room. Does this count as perfume? 

 Mia:

1. If we are using Lawn Mower, it has to match all 5 prompts in a block, even when we’re just going for the first round (which only requires 3 prompts). Is this correct?

yup. For lawnmower, irrespective of the round, it's the chosen title should match all 5 prompts.

Not sure about question 2.

 Mia:

Everyone who wants to go beyond round 1 must complete the cherry blossom level first (complete all 26 blocks, 3 prompt each)?

Yes, For first round - all 26 blocks with 3 prompts each at least.

 Mia:

Does it mean they will get a cherry blossom badge + additional badge with butterflies for the extra rounds?

No. If you want the cherry blossom badge, you must complete round 1 and stop or complete round 2 and stop, etc. If you complete 26 blocks for round 1 and 2 for round 2 then you will get the "Sampaguita round 2: 28 Blocks = 86 titles" badge. Not cherry blossom.

 Mia:

Which means, the additional badge(s) with butterfly will depend on how many blocks they complete on the extra rounds?

I think butterflies are added for additional rounds to distinguish from round 1.  But I'm not sure how many rounds.

Thank you @ColourMePurple for the answers. 

I get it now. So the flower badge in the end is based on the final count of completed blocks, rather than “levels being cleared” sort of thing (which was what I thought before, if that makes sense).
