Since the Super Challenge bot is still not up and running and isn’t likely to be in the near future, it seems like a good idea to at least have a single thread where we all can record our progress. I’m not going to make any rules about how often you should update or how to format your updates, though I would suggest to try to keep them both reasonably concise and at the same time informative. I plan to use progress bars for each part of the challenge, with the names of books/films listed under each progress bar. In the interest of keeping my lists from getting ridiculously long, as they do on the bot page, I won’t list each episode of a TV series, but write something like “episodes ## to ##”.
Update as often as you feel like, but considering the length of the challenge, once every month or two is probably often enough.

Re: Super Challenge 2020-21 progress reports
I started the year thinking I would get back into watching movies, but lost interest early in the year, before the SC even started.
I signed up for a full challenge in three languages, though I'd be happy to finish a half each for the reading. I'm on track to complete a full for the audio part.
I track actual pages and minutes on on excel sheet; I'll post a simplified version here.
And finally, I gave a little star next to some of my favorite things.
Spanish Reading:
Santiago Posteguillo, La traición de Roma
Mario Vargas Llosa, Tiempos Recios (in progress)
Spanish Audio:
* Fernando Aramburu, Patria (audiobook)
* Arte Madrid (tv)
Documentos (podcast; 8 epsiodes)
Así Como Suena (podcast; 2 episodes)
French Reading:
* Marcel Proust, Le temps retrouvé
Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio. Désert (in progress)
French Audio:
* Marcel Proust, Le temps retrouvé (audobook)
* Le bureau des légendes, Season 4 (tv)
Les musiciens face au pouvoir (podcast; 8 episodes)
Au coeurs de l'histoire (podcast; 19 episodes)
Italian Reading:
Elena Ferrante, La vita bugiardi degli adulti (in progress)
Italian Audio:
* My Brilliant Friend, Season 2 (tv)
* Storia d'italia (podcast; 32 episodes)
Alla scoperta dei Musei vaticani (tv; 3 episodes)
Pier Paolo Pasolini, Il vangelo secondo Matteo (movie)
