I wish we could do something like this: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1582476
Whoa, that is...elaborate. Haha. I like it though. It definitely gets to more of the random aspects that I liked so much from doing certain entries in this challenge.
Could we just have certain categories and make people do random items using a simple random number generator? So same idea, but lose the bingo board and visual aspect, I guess.
Like have a list of, say, specific years or a shorter year range, for example. It might have (for sake of example and I have no idea how this would break down) 40 entries. Then people doing the challenge would get 5 random numbers from 1-40 using a random number generator and have to do the specific years/year ranges those numbers correspond to on the full list. Make sense?
So we would need a lot more items on the existing list, but it would be a similar setup. Just more would be left to fate and random number generators than us being able to choose.
Just an idea after reading that bingo thing ;)
Hessa:
What categories should we add?
I had suggested a documentary or based on a true story category above somewhere. And also a short film/omnibus film category. There's no exact drama equivalent, though. (Well, maybe that could be paired with the drama special.)
Also, I liked that "watch something that aired in the season you joined" thing, even if we all interpreted it differently. I actually found something that was released the same month I joined and that amused me, for some reason, lol. We could have combo lists with one having months or four seasons, at least, and the other with specific years, and then end up with "watch a movie that was released in summer of 2009" or something if I got summer and 2009 off the lists. That would be fun, I think. But that may be just me.
