Hi all! I love this site!! I'm just starting to get into the challenges here, so fun!
My questions are:
Can the challenges be combined? i.e.- The cookie 101 and the slogan challenge for instance. will points be added for both?
Also, about points, are we supposd to tally points ourselves? And do they carry on from month to momth?
And lastly, if I did a challnge and it was after the two weeks, will I still get a point?
Thanks all!!:)
 
Welcome! I know you're sure to have a blast here!!

First, you can not combine 2 challenges in one LO and get the points. You have to make a LO for each challenge in order to get the points.

Karen does an absolutely amazing job of keep track of all the points everyone earns. In the challenge section of the forum, there's a place called "Sweet SHoppe Challenge Tracker". Every month, Karen posts what challenges earn you points for the month, when certain challenges are no longer elligible (mostly just the Taste Test Thursday highlighted challenge), etc etc. It's pretty much everything you need to know about challenges. :)
 
Welcome! Glad you are enjoying it here! :) Col pretty much answered your questions. The Challenge tracker is the best place to see what earns you points. The points start fresh each month and I'm pretty sure you can get points if it is past the 2 weeks but still within the month. :)
 
Welcome! I am new to this too, and am having SOOO much fun with the challenges! Late nights and any free time that I have I am pretty much on here! Have fun!:)
 
Hiya & Welcome :)

I think someone already linked you to the Sweet Rewards FAQs :)

Can the challenges be combined? i.e.- The cookie 101 and the slogan challenge for instance. will points be added for both?
A LO can only be applied to 1 challenge...no combining. I think you may've had a LO recently that fulfilled 2 challenges, let me know which one you would like that LO to be applied towards. Usually when I go through all the LOs I have open (there are usually lots :p), the 1st thing I look is up to see which gallery it's in (if a LO is in a couple of different gallery categories...each LO image will have it's own unique URL)...so I probably gave credit to the gallery I saw.



Also, about points, are we supposd to tally points ourselves?
I start a new thread every month and they are in the Challenge Tracker Forum, we are currently in January 2008. The 1st post in the thread I keep updated w/the challenges that are eligible for points. If you scroll down more, the 2nd post in that thread is where I keep track of participants and what they've done so far that month...I usually note in the top of that 2nd post the last time I've updated so people are free to PM me if I've missed something.



And do they carry on from month to momth?
Most challenges do NOT carry over to the next month (eligibility for points that is...people are ALWAYS welcome to get inspiration from any of the challenges here :) ). Usually if a challenge/blog is posted near the end of the month (ie...less than 7 days before the end of the month) it will be carried over to the next month.

I will be posting in the 1st post of the Challenge Tracker thread which challenges will be carried over as it nears the end of the month.



And lastly, if I did a challnge and it was after the two weeks, will I still get a point?
Thanks all!!:)
I think this was answered in the last question. It's not necessarily that you get 7 days or 14 days to get point(s) for a challenge...it's basically until the end of the month that the challenge was issued, but if the challenge was issued and there's less than a week left in the month....those will be eligible for that month or the next month.


HOpe that all makes sense lol :)
