Get Ready for Autumn
September 1- September 30
This challenge is brought to you by YANG House
☯ You have one month to complete your level for 9 points.
CR Level = 3 tasks
RR Level = 6 tasks
PR Level = 9 tasks
☯ If you aren't quite ready for summer to be over and can't finish all of your tasks before the end of the challenge, you may score your points as follows
CR = # of tasks x 3
RR = # of tasks x 1.5
PR = # of tasks x 1
☯ BONUS +1 point for each book you read (maximum of 3) that fits more than one option under the task. For example, if for your Halloween task, you read a black book with Horror on the main page, you get an extra point
Remember: each task can only be done one time so you can only get 1 bonus point per task for a MAXIUM of 3 bonus points. So maximum score for the challenge would be 12 points
