Creating quests for others to try to complete sounds awesome! Kind of a little similar to our PvP challenges? Connecting our Academy character quests to our forum Five Week Challenges would also be really cool, but, even putting aside all the technical challenges, I'm not sure what the best way to do that would be.

So, are you saying that you think you could put a link to that in our about me setting? That would be amazing. Yeah, shouldn't be too hard. I'll do it like I did for the reputation points The biggest problem is that I have no way of knowing if a member here on the forum is also a member of the Academy. And even if I did, I still have no way of knowing the url to their Academy profile, it's just a random character number. Someone who worked for NF could probably run a match on academy member emails and forum member emails, but even so, what's to say you used the same email to sign up for the forums and the academy? So the only way to make it work is probably an opt-in kind of thing where I ask anyone who installs my userscript to provide their Academy character URL. Asking for input like that in a userscript, and storing it somewhere, is nothing I've ever done before. So it'd be a fun learning experience, and I'd love to do it I'd just like to know that more than like three of us would actually use it And to make more people want to use it, I want to provide more features from the get go. Hence my ask for ideas 3 Quote Challenge 21 - Tobbe Goes Running in the Dark | Challenge 20 - Tobbe Gets Ready for CNF | Challenge 19 - Tobbe has Nutrition and Fitness Goals | Challenge 18 - Tobbe is like Jace | Challenge 17 - Tobbe Keeps a Journal | Challenge 16 - Tobbe Builds an E-commerce Site | Challenge 15 - Tobbe and the Journey | Challenge 14 - Tobbe Goes to Sleep | Challenge 13 - Tobbe Kills Zombies | PvP - DailyDare NerdFitness Edition | Challenge 12 - Tobbe tries not to do all the things | Challenge 11 - Tobbe Becomes a Yogi in South East Asia | Challenge 10 - Tobbe Becomes a Yogi | Challenge 9 - Tobbe Gets Productive | PVP - The Last Darebender | Challenge 8 - Tobbe's 100 days of food freedom (part 2) | Challenge 7 - Tobbe's 100 days of food freedom (part 1) | Challenge 6 - Tobbe becomes a Recovery Warrior | Challenge 5 - Tobbe fights the dinosaur | Challenge 4 - Tobbe catches up and pleases his wife | PVP - Rise above the pull-up bar | Challenge 3 - Tobbe eats like a ... | Mini challenge - Students gonna ranger | Challenge 2 - The Necessities | Challenge 1 - Let's get this challenge thing going | The Intuitive Eating Support Group | TODO 2019 PvP | Battle Log (>>) Link to comment
