In case you didn't hear about it...

Beast 2 is almost here!

Know what you're committing to

Endearingly nicknamed "The Beast" by former participants, the Community Engagement Challenge was created to give newbies the fundamentals of creating good posts while fostering healthy community relations through meaningful engagement. The parameters are meant to push you; that's why it's called a challenge.

Challenge Tiers (or Tears...)

Thanks to @erodedthoughts we have expanded the ten day challenge into a 14-day marathon with different tiers. Everyone starts off as a SAVAGE, but only the strong-willed and mightily determined will stay that way.

SAVAGE BEAST

  • Minimum one post a day for 14 days
  • 700 comments in 14 days

BRUTAL BEAST

  • 10 posts in 14 days
  • 600 comments in 14 days

CUBS

  • 500 comments in 14 days

Coaches

Special thanks to @erodedthoughts, @lexikon82, and @merej99

The Beast coaches will be on assignment to make sure posts meet the minimum requirements and coach in best practices. This may include recommendations on tag use, optimized titles, how to properly cite sources. They will also help to engage in conversations to help everyone reach their comments goals.

Community Engagement Challenge - The Beast

Begins January 18, 2019 at 8 PM Eastern
Ends February 1, 2019 at Midnight Pacific

Due to the expected volume of people who want to join this challenge, I am limiting the amount of signups to 50 people. Special consideration will be made to newbies and previous Beast winners.
This number may change depending on how many coaches are vetted, but 50 is the maximum that I can handle.

How to Join

  • Join The Beast Discord server
  • Leave this comment below: I AM A SAVAGE
    PLEASE NOTE: Resources and time are the main reason to limit the amount of people that we will officially track. We are committing ourselves to coaching them so they learn the best practices and pay-it-forward to their network of people. It's our diabolical way of training the next generation of Beast coaches. We encourage everyone to participate.
