The 2017 Ultimate CAAA Character Challenge [Happy New Year!]

[snakeman]

Forgot to ask; around how many songs would a "short" playlist have? Three or four? Regular album length? More?

I'd personally aim for around 5 songs per character? ^^

how many characters do you own?: including sonas, eighteen. one sona is completely developed, though i will be ordering more art of her and proofreading her personality. the other just needs more art and a fully developed personality. only thirteen characters will be developed for certain, there are a couple that i'm feeling less connected with and might end up selling, sadly. this leaves me in tier uno ^.^
what challenge(s) will you be attempting?:
- character keeper; all of my characters are already on one site, but i need to do some beautifying and add artist info
- personality pro; only my fursonas have their personalities basically figured out, everyone else needs one
- short scenario; definitely would love to give all of my babies fun stories to showcase their personalities
- tag, you're it {&} fifty faces {&} a hundred avatars; everyone definitely needs more art
- maybes; ready to reference {&} snapshot {&} soundtrack {&} basic bio
link to the thread, website, sta.sh, etc. where you will be keeping your progress: my weebly
any additional questions or information:
- mags has nineteen pieces of art
- three has seven pieces
- fia has three
- chasi has two
- usmev has two
- willow has six
- keanu has four
- laika has five
- astra has two
- mika has two
- farah has zero
- straccia has four
- chai has two
- claurette has zero
- cole has two
- dallas has four
- ydalia has zero *uncertain about keeping*
- nameless has two *his name is literally nameless, he does have a name*

and i have two questions: (a) if i order couple art, does that count as one piece of art for one character or can that count as one piece for both characters? (b) basically the same question, but if i write a story about two of my characters who are mated, is that a short scenario for both or does that only count once?

sorry for such a long post, i'm trying to make sure i have all the appropriate information to help me keep track. i can edit some of this out and put it elsewhere if you would like ^.^

I have a question - if we're participating in the story writing challenge, are the stories allowed to include more than one of our characters or do we need to write an independent story for each one?

How many characters do you own?
I have 38 characters on my character site, then I might include Cano back into my official characters, and some from my sta.sh that I was going to sell but now am thinking of actually trying to develop... (5) And maybe some RP characters/offline characters as well... so... It will be:
Tier 2: 31-100 characters

-----

What challenge(s) will you be attempting?
All of them. Go hard or go home :3

Character Keeper -
Most of my characters are already on my character website, however I'm going to be changing practically every page because I'm going to be adding elements soon, and generally tidying up. So hopefully this will all still count c:

Balancing the Books -
I like the sound of this one, but it might be a bit tricky to track down some of this information. I'll try my best ^^

Basic Bio -
Many of my character pages already have this, but I was hoping to add to this section on my site any way, so hopefully that will count as editing. A fair amount needs to be updated as things have changed since I first added them.

Personality Pro -
Wanted to get this one done for any without personalities already, and will be planning on editing through the others as well, since a lot haven't been changed in a long time and I don't see that character in the same way any more.

Detailed Description -
Already a part of my website, although as mentioned above, so much needs editing that I might as well include it here as a part of the challenge. Might actually make me get it done.

Short Scenario -
I love that you've included my stuff as the examples <3 I love doing this sort of piece. They're fun little things, that's for sure~ And it makes you think about situations that maybe you might not have thought about before, or things that just come naturally in the case of the ones where I didn't edit.

Sound Track -
I have some songs listed under "theme songs" in my character bios. I'll probably do it like that still rather than in an actual playlist-playlist format. But I'll actually make sure that all of them are linked this time (with warnings if necessary on some) as at the moment some are linked and others are not... It's all over the place.

Snapshot -
I'll have to order, but I like making sure that everyone has something specific to them ^^

Tag you're it -
Again might be tricky as I'll have to order, but I'll try c:

Fifty Faces -
Same as above.

A hundred avatars -
Same as above.

Ready to Reference -
Might have to not count some of my characters for this one, as many already have official references that I probably won't be replacing as they still work.

I'm going to be reusing my previous character challenge site, in the new 2017 section. Linked below:

Any additional questions or information:
I apologise for the size of this, but it's also a note to myself on what I need to do for each one. (On the ones where it matters, like the editing website one etc) it's also a nice way for others to know what I'm doing for things I guess?
Also, don't count my progress on the reference one except maybe the end goal of 100%? Because I don't actually know how many I'll be keeping, so have it as all or nothing.

Also as a side note, I'll probably set myself an additional task of making sure everyone has at least 5 pieces of art in their gallery. However with the avatars, and pixels, and reference sheets etc it shouldn't be too difficult to do that c:

Oh wow that looks really detailed <3
I look forward to seeing more~

Looking at my poor showing from the last challenge I did, I'm really hoping I can get over my slump and really work on this.
Since it's so varied, hopefully it'll let me do bits and pieces at various times, while I've got other things on and can't work on big written pieces etc.

Wanted to ask though, what's the criteria for a reference sheet?
Once I've finished working on the actual character challenge section on my challenge site, I'm going to try and find out how many of my characters have refs already.
