Pokemaster234, this is not the place to make threads for your Nuzlocke comic. Maybe try art and design. If you want to update your Nuzlocke progress, there's also the actual Nuzlocke thread. I shouldn't have to tell you this again.

Searn, that's a pretty large scale challenge, but I feel more like your thread is just advertising your site and blog, and you're only allowed to advertise other places in your signature. And if you want suggestions about the challenge, you should post about it in CI&D first. Posting a thread in a section where all threads are under mod approval means only I'm gonna see it, and obviously that's not a large audience. I'm not sure how many people would actually want to enter it anyway, so there's another reason to post your idea in CI&D first to get a general idea of if anyone here is actually gonna want to try it. I personally find it to be way too time consuming and overly complicated. Plus, not everyone here has a blog or wants to make one just for this. These types of challenges are great as personal challenges (I made a personal challenge myself, and there's no thread for it) but I think that's what this one should stay. Personal, and between you and your friends. Good luck to you though. You're gonna need it.

Mudinjakarp, some people actually play their games like that regularly, so I don't see the point in making it a separate challenge. Plus, your set up was really weird. Next time you submit a challenge, try making it a bit neater and more organized. Check out the other challenges posted in here to see what I mean.

WarriorOfDarkness, we have a Random Challenge. Plus, you must participate in what you post. Keep that in mind for next time you submit a challenge.

Devcon1, if people want to be restricted by type, they can do a monotype. If they want to consider fainted as dead, they can do a Nuzlocke. Putting a bunch of challenges together into one and naming it after yourself doesn't make it particularly unique. Plus, you must participate in challenges you submit.

Cmanblast3, we have this challenge right here: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=292922

In the Challenge forum, threads are considered dead after two months. This one's still up so go ahead and sign up in there if you want to participate! Plus, the way you have the challenge set up doesn't make it much different than a monotype.

Jaysfinest1, that seems more like you want to battle people. When you have a team ready, feel free to seek out battles in the Battle Center forum. That's not what the challenge forum is for. Check out the other challenges in this section to see what we're looking for, and reading the rules and FAQ isn't a bad idea either. If you have further questions, you can just PM me. I don't bite.

zypher634, this isn't the place to advertise your YouTube. Check out the Let's Play subforum in Video Games. Make sure you read the rules in there before trying to post.

AlxG123, too similar to a random challenge, which we already have.

Pokemanz, if you want to get help with your ideas, post in CI&D. But I can tell you already that we've had two of those types of challenges in the past that ended up failing. Also, in this forum, starting the game over is how all the challenges work. So no, it wouldn't have to be a game that's already beaten.

WarriorOfDarkness, all events must go through me prior to being posted, which looks to be what you're trying to start here. And in keeping with the tourney thing, I think this would be better off in Battle Center, however you'd probably have to nuke the playing through the game part. Try talking to Wolflare about letting this go through, as there's an event subforum in Battle Center. But it's not going to pass here I'm afraid. Sorry.

T-Zombie, this challenge needs a lot of sprucing up. The wording is so off that I cannot understand the point of this challenge. Also, explaining things in the sign up format is really tacky looking and the coding in there along with that makes it nearly unreadable for me, let alone other people. Feel free to re-submit it when you can reword it to have it make more sense. If you need to, you could rewrite it and PM it to me so I can read through and let you know if it makes sense. As of right now though, I can't really figure out the point of it. Sorry.

Oh, btw you don't have to put "not for spinoffs" in the title. Makes it unnecessarily long, plus it's a given that challenges are only for main games unless specified in the first post. Having it in the title isn't needed.

LegitRed, we already have a Nuzlocke thread. Your optional rules could just be added on by yourself without them being official to the thread, since they don't override any of the rules in the thread.

MrBunny9612, we have a random and a monotype. Morphing them together doesn't need it's own thread. When signing up for the random challenge, you can ask for your team to be all one type, which would effectively be a random monotype by doing so.

MrBunny9612, Eeveelutions Challenge is right here. By Challenge forum rules, threads are active for two months.

legendhunter14, I LOVE this idea. But you have to sign up for it! ;(

sonicguy, if the rules are the same as the rules for a solo challenge, shouldn't they just enter a solo challenge? Read the rules, please.

NeoDraconis, I don't feel that this differs enough from the Nuzlocke that's already posted to have its own thread. You can play a hack in the thread we already have, though. If it's not listed in the first post, just talk to the person running it, though I'm sure they won't mind.

Pichu2Pikachu2Raichu, your thread is the most blatant way to say "Hi, I didn't read the rules, FAQ, or any of the threads in this forum." Those threads are absolutely not what we're looking for, and I honestly hope you weren't serious. If you ever want to make an actual challenge in the future, please read the rules, FAQ, and even other challenges to get an idea of what it is that we do in this forum.

Polymus1, your challenge is almost like a backwards Favorite Challenge mixed with a Random...just...don't think it'd even be that popular and it's too similar to the others.
