    Default Question on challenges.

    I joined two challenges recently, but I am not sure if I
    am doing everything correctly.

    For instance, the September baking challenge, I was in
    for one batch of apple muffins. I made them and put
    the information in my siggie. Am I supposed to go back
    to the challenge thread and do anything there once I
    complete a challenge?

    Just asking because the challenges are fun, but want
    to do them the right way.

    Thanks!

    Surilda - I always say in the challenge threads if I have completed my challenge or not....and believe me there are many times I do not. You can't do a challenge wrong so don't fret. They are alot of fun and it really helps for me to stay motivated as I have to be accountable in those threads. So yes, we do like to hear if you have successfully completed a challenge or not so let us know in the thread! They are alot of fun aren't they?

    Hi Surilda,

    If you have the challenge in your sig, but you never post back to the challenge thread, sometimes others in the challenge won't see your posts in other threads and will miss that you completed (or didn't complete) the challenge.

    I have all mine in my sig, but I also try to report back in to the actual challenge thread regularly to report my progress (or lack thereof) and to let others know that I'm paying attention to what they are doing. Doing a challenge all by yourself isn't much fun. It is a lot more interesting to read about how others are doing, and feeling a part of that particular society!
