You can sign up until April 30th.
The challenge is open-ended.
Sometimes in life, you must choose which path to go - left or right?
This challenge will let you choose exactly that over and over again.
The Challenge
1. Sign up here and I will create a challenge thread for you.
2. You will be given a set of 2 tasks 15 times during the challenge. You only need to complete one of these tasks - the LEFT task or the RIGHT task. Depending on the task you choose, you will be given a new set of tasks and so on. Each choice you make will give you a different set of tasks than the route you didn't take, meaning that a person choosing the LEFT task will be given a different set of new tasks than a person choosing the RIGHT task.
3. No matter which task you choose in the beginning, you do not have to stick to this direction throughout the challenge.
4. You cannot go back and change the direction you are going. However, should you be stuck with a task you can let me know in your thread. You can then choose to go left or right after reading a book of your choice. PLEASE NOTE that you can only use this out once throughout this challenge. If you want to skip more than one task, it will cost you 7 points.
5. Please make a completion post in your thread using this template:

6. After completing all 15 tasks, you will be awarded with 5 points. Make sure that you have your personal point account. If you don't have one yet, request one here.
7. General challenge rules apply. The completion date of a book counts. Do not use books you completed before I posted your next set of tasks.
