Day 1 is more than half over, depending on where you live; I hope all of you have gotten off to a good start! I will be starting a scoring thread in a couple of weeks, so that scores can be updated as convenient.

Re: 2020 366-day challenge! Rules, sign-up, discussion
Thank you, Sedge for taking over the running of this challenge in 2020. Hopefully it goes smoothly.
I won't be participating this year simply as it's a time management issue for me. I usually manually track all my activities (type of study etc) in French and keep myself up to speed on the Super Challenge and the 365 Day Challenge. However, doing all that in several languages and remembering which ones I've studied each day is just going to frustrate me and take time out of my study or other things right when I am trying harder than ever to use every single stolen moment I realistically can for language learning. So I'll be studying as vigorously as every one of you put together and multiplied by 10 thousand - yeah, I'm pretty bloody tough and amazing... In fact you may as well award me the 2020 trophy now and just accept that everyone else will be competing for second place. Anyway, wishing you all the best (mumbles under breath: "in your quest for second place")!
Good luck Sedge!
Throw a pretty solid, but aged goat with a few gray hairs and good conditioned hooves (Hoofs or hooves - Which is Correct?) over your sixth knee, for realio. Peace 'an' stuff.

Re: 2020 366-day challenge! Rules, sign-up, discussion
I would like to quit both challenges. Unfortunately, I can't reserve enough time for them and the necessity to do a certain amount of time doesn't suit me. Sorry for causing trouble.
