Looks like a lot of people didn't go too well for this one but there's always chance for improvement. I suggest we restart this 1st of next month and make this a monthly challenge.

I also would love to join in for this challenge next time it starts!

It's been a very productive month for some of us, while others struggled to find their pace.

The winner of the very first edition of 1M Challenge - NHK News Easy & NHK News is:

pm215 (42 days combined with perfect record in both types of news except weekends)

2nd place goes to:

hirata (35 days combined)

3rd place goes to:

mekkanare (32 days combined)

Honorable mentions:
Rael89(31), anritsi(30), Devvar (29), mustermann(28), pippi(26), guian(24)

Overall, 337 days were logged between 18 active participants that combines into 1011 articles read. Its quite a steep drop from the previous month but considering we lost exactly 10 people the score per head is much higher than it was previously. That means only one thing: we are reading more and more, at least some of us

As I said previously, next Challenge with exactly the same rules will start on March 1st. I've locked access to Sheet #1 but the good news is, you can start signing up for 1M Challenge - NHK News Easy & NHK News #2 even without the official announcement thread by putting your nick on the list in Sheet #2 in the exactly same file!!

I found this page that gives some tips about watching news:

I'm in for March. Good luck everyone!
