Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
You wouldn't have a "very long list post" but a fairly concise post that simply contains links to your actual list posts in the various challenges. After first posting your "list" you simply update that single post with new challenge list links. After a while your post is going to fall on "stale" pages but your signature contains the link to the "master list" post which would make it easy for you, or others, to look up past endeavors. I'm constantly using my old lists to see just when I watched something and on those films I've rewatched to see if my rating changed from one viewing to another.

I could imagine different people doing different kinds of list posts, just based on some of the lists I've seen.

True... but as you use a single post for all your lists it'll soon be on a back page and most will be accessed via signature links.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
While things are still hectic with my family, and I don't think I will be running the Animation challenge, I decided I will attempt to run the Sci Fi/Fantasy Challenge this year. Expect the thread up soon, so I can have plenty of time to prepare the challenge at my own pace. Also, anyone who would like to step up and volunteer to run the August Animation Challenge, I would be most grateful.

I'll take you up on that! A little closer to August, though...

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
Just letting people know that either later this week, or the beginning of next week I'll post the Sci-Fi/Fantasy Challenge discussion thread. Don't want to do it today, as I hurt my arm, and was forced to take some of my painkillers, the pain was so bad, ever since last night. In other words, I'm basically typing with one hand.

I know what you mean. I've already renewed my Hulu Plus sub, so I can start watching some Criterion movies early.

If someone who hasn't hosted a challenge before would like to host the November Comedy Challenge, I'd be willing to step aside. No pressure. I'm not threatening to drop out as host, I'm just putting it out there.

Well...wonderful timing. I've been spending time reading through last year's comments to see if there are changes to be made. All seems well, but I may adjust the decades to have the 1920s and 1930s separate again. Between Hulu titles (unreleased) and newer material, I think the 1920s is fine to stand on its own.

I'm getting antsy as well. I've already "saved" a few titles that I want to wait for the challenge to unearth.

I'll have the Discussion Thread up within the next few days.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
With the Oscar Challenge beginning the final week of January, and with TV on DVD* Challenge discussion thread pretty much already underway, I'd like to start that one on Boxing Day (i.e., the day after Christmas) this year. Any objections?

I'm good with starting on Boxing Day.

For Oscars, that challenge traditionally begins a month before the awards ceremony, but participants (including me) have suggested that it begin when the nominations are announced (so like a week or two earlier) to take advantage of the buzz. I'd like to humbly raise that up the flagpole again. Thanks!
