Re: The Super Challenge rules and registration 2016-2017
I’ve decided to change my challenge in German to the Germanic language family instead, so that I can potentially do some Swedish for the challenge too. My Swedish is currently somewhere between non-existent and A1. I’m not sure yet, but I may also do a little Portuguese (A0) for my Romance Languages challenge, which I didn’t mention when I signed up for that.

You can track your progress either here or on the twitter bot. If you use the twitter bot it will show you progress against others, although I must stress this isn't a completion against each other, but against yourself. But the twitter bot does make recording progress easier.

Re: The Super Challenge rules and registration 2016-2017
I withdrew from Tagalog. I still watch at least an hour a day of TV in Tagalog, and speak it frequently, but I haven't been logging things since I haven't been doing anything extra.
I need to concentrate on my Family-Romance challenge during study time.

I'm converting my single Super Challenges in Spanish to Double Challenges! I think I can finish in time.

Salut, I'm joining in the insanity~
LANGUAGE: Français
CHALLENGE: Half, starting at the halfway point :^)
CURRENT LEVEL: Intermediate
COMMENTS: I was inspired to start a little bit of a film challenge(just 25) on my own when I learned about the Super Challenge...now I want to join to see what it does for me. I've seen 18 french films so far. I suppose I will try to get past 50 for films, but for books I'm sorely lacking. Or, rather, I'm right on schedule to start this: I've only read L'Étranger (it was 100 pages though, so I guess that's 2)
Bon courage à tous !

Re: The Super Challenge rules and registration 2016-2017
I actually finished a French SC last summer without registering here, but since I keep updating my goals, I might as well do it properly!
LANGUAGE: French
CHALLENGE: Double
CURRENT LEVEL: B2 passive now, started out as a Beginner. Proof that the Super Challenge works wonders
COMMENTS: I finished an early intensive reading SC with LWT last summer, I'm now on the second SC, which is mostly extensive or semi-intensive with the Kindle.
: French Pages
: French audio hours
LANGUAGE: Russian
CHALLENGE: Full
CURRENT LEVEL: Beginner
COMMENTS: Early intensive reading to get to a level where I can read extensively.
: Russian Pages
: Russian audio hours
LANGUAGE: Spanish
CHALLENGE: Full Intensive Reading, Double Audio
CURRENT LEVEL: B2 reading, C1 listening
COMMENTS: Intensive reading to improve the precision of my reading comprehension. Audio for fun and accents.
: Spanish Pages
: peninsular Spanish audio hours
: Argentinian audio hours
Well, that's a lot. Can I make it? I'm ahead with French reading, ahead with French listening and ahead with Spanish audio. I just started with Spanish reading, so I can't quite predict how fast this will be, since I'm likely to speed up over time when I have less words to add to my LWT database. With Russian I will try my best to make the reading goal, but I still read very slowly. Again, hard to predict, since it will get faster over time and I might just get into the story at some point.
