Well, unless someone has a better idea for January, I'm planning to bring back the Animation Challenge. I'm in the mood to try Disney+ and watch some classic animated flicks. Plus all the animated shows they got from buying Fox.

I'm also planning to host a TV Challenge sometime next year. It's not the same as my previous TV Challenge idea where four hosts take a different week and a different genre. I'll be the sole host and any genre can be watched throughout the month. I'm not ready to reveal any rules, which I've been talking to Snowy about, but it won't be a point per minute.

Other than that, I still have interest in mini challenges like Zombie Week and Western Week. No idea when to host them. If there's a month without a challenge, that might be a good time.

I like the idea of an animation challenge. It sounds super fun, and for people that aren't that into Disney+ there are plenty of other animated shows to choose from. I'm sure @der would love to watch South Park again!

And I'm all for TVShows! I love watching TV, as you know lol.

And mini challenges are fun too! Those sound awesome! I was also thinking about a robot one!

Ah, 2020... the year of perfect vision! I have a few ideas up my sleeve. I've been really busy with work and school stuff lately, but I've gotten to a point a peace in my life where I can ramp up the dope and booze levels in my system, and I've gotten some great ideas in mind for Trash Epics.

As for CHALLENGES, I'll probably do a 2 week Christmas Mini Challenge for the last two weeks of the month. That way, we can earn points for watching our killer santa movies and whatnot. That could be a challenge in itself: Killer Santa Challenge. But I think I'll do a general Christmas challenge rather. I don't know about you, but I loved that Christmas challenge Onyx hosted a few years ago. I'm not sure why that was never brought back.

Trivia is something I rigged up a system for in a whole day, but it really means nothing unless people are interested in making questions and themes. It's one of those ideas that's great in theory, but nobody takes the time to do them. I want that to change. I want people to make trivia games, and add horoscopes, and add movies/people/wiki-pages and whatever they so desire. I want people to get carried away with it and run wild, adding stuff they love and helping to categorize it and figure out fun stuff to do with the information we have on Trash Epics.

A few weeks ago, I was thinking about those damn chatbots you can find out there. It involves a system called AIML (artificial intelligence markup language) that I'm trying to figure out how to parse, because that could be one hell of a draw for TE. If we had a chatbot here, that would be amazing.

But speaking of site stuff, I just so happen to be in the middle of a redesign. It's mostly an optimization thing, but I would love any input from people on what they think should be improved, be it shoutboxes, a certain page's layout, what they would rather have, etc. If anyone has anything they want specified, now's the time.


Of course, I'm always working on certain stories I have in my mind that I want to use Trash Epics as a distributor for, in some way or another. If anyone else has creative projects they want hosted here on Trash Epics, we can make a big deal out of it. I know we have challenges and everything, but we could do better than that. We can bring horror and trash back from the dead. We can be the new Troma. I wish I was as cool as Lloyd Kaufman. He built an empire on b-movies.

Don't let me be the only one ranting to my heart's content. Let's hear some more thoughts about what people are hoping to achieve in 2020.

I've been thinking on trivia ideas, I really do like what you have done, and I have a couple of good ones. Maybe I can get some Friday the 13th questions for Friday the 13th, and we can test it out! I have an idea for fun guess the movie games that we can work on!

If none else wants to do it I would like to host the black and white movie challenge, always been one of my favorites. That used to be around April. Who is the one hosting the trash challenge and when?

I believe the trash challenge is in March. I have no idea who will be hosting it though. But I think you should host the Black and White Challnege, and April is probably the best time to do it! So go for it Johan! I think that's a wonderful idea!
