MDL's 2024 Challenge FAQ and Discussion

I had a doubt that I choosed Bauhinia blakeana level so it says total block 22 that is 66 dramas(it is written there) to watch but when I filled my 22 blocks in form. I created a custom list in which I filled all the drama I entered in Challenge. It says 112 dramas to watch I am confused, can anyone explain?

Did you fill in 5 or 3 titles per block? There are 5 to choose from but for round one you only have to watch 3 in each block for it to count. 

Hello!

For the category "Idol actor", does it have to be an active Idol or do disbanded Idols also count?

 solana:

Hello! From what I understood, disbanded or inactive idols also count as long as they were once an idol or in a group and if there's a tag.

Thanks!

The big difference between a Short Length Series and Miniseries is one is focused on the length of an episode the other one on the number of episodes. So for example a short length series can be 120 episodes of 20 minutes, and a mini series 10 episodes of 60 minutes. Basically the episodes duration are short for short length series, but it can still be a drama with many episodes. It’s also possible for a drama to be both a short length series and mini series.

Short Length Series  
Short length series are titles that have an average runtime of less than 20 minutes per episode.

Miniseries  
Miniseries is a title that tells a story in a predetermined, limited number of episodes, of usually 10 or less episodes.

 JulyMoon:

In Block 5 one prompt requires a Short Length Series. What's the difference between a Short Length Series and a Miniseries (to me that seems to be the same) and can we use a Miniseries for this prompt?

"Each title can only be used  ONCE and only for one prompt in the challenge"

Does this rule apply to leap flowers/bonuses as well? For example, if I use a drama XYZ for Annual Flower bonus, does it mean I can't use the same drama for Floral Fan bonus?

Thanks for the detailed explanation. Now I get what's the difference. ^.^

Okay, thank you so much :)
