FWIW, for Tadoku it doesn't count because each repeat is counted as 50% less. If anyone wrote an app that counts how many times you've read each particular sentence, theoretically it could be included. It's just not worth the fuss due to the push to read new content.

I started an HTLAL Super Challenge group on Facebook, for anyone who's interested in talking about movie or book recommendations, or whatever you want to talk about. :)

53 pages of debate is doing my head in. 53 pages is not 5000 and yet I had to skip the majority of them,
thereby missing a lot of important points perhaps. I still don't understand if I need a twitter account, how to
track my pages/stars/books/watching and so on and have no idea if I'm declaring this in the right area and I
do indeed want to be a part of this. It's supposedly simplified and yet still too complicated! I can't imagine
what the reaction of some outsiders stumbling across this thread would be, similar to mine i'd imagine. ...
So let it be known I want to join, i'm B1 (or am I not meant to mention that) in French and my language of
choice is French. I want to do a super challenge, that is 5000 pages (50 books) and 150hours... what the hell
is a bot?!!

Go here to register.
The twitter bot tracks your
progress so I imagine it is required.

The twitter bot is useful, but it's not required. However, at some point you will then
need to let Solfrid know how much of the challenge you have completed. I don't like
twitter, but I like twitter bots for these challenges. It just makes it easy to track,
and seeing your chart go up and up is actually fun and motivating!

Dear all! In the pre-Super Challenge period, we have discussed back and forth, but I think we need a new
discussion thread now that the Super Challenge 2014-15 has started.
I have therefore opened a new thread, and ask you to make all new comments there. Thank you all for
your participation and your enthusiasm!

SUPER CHALLENGE DISCUSSION THREAD 2014-15
