General Info

## The Fandom Challenge (ORG series)

**The Fandom Challenge** is an online reality game inspired by *MTV’s The Challenge*. It originally began featuring users from *The Challenge Wiki* Fandom site but has since expanded to include users from *Discord*, *Zwooper,* *Reddit* and many others outlets. The contestants compete against one another in various challenges to avoid elimination and win kudo points and bragging rights.

The series began on October 9, 2018 with SQ Lavin being the sole host for the first three seasons. Co-Hosts were implemented when the series began to grow to help with the format, casting process and hosting abilities. Jason Nixon and Spencer Michael were the first co-hosts and have been followed by Parzi Valentine, Shayne Perry, Martha Ramirez, Mikee' Camacho, Ben O'Brien, Lex Quinn, Jaysn Love and Dev G.

Since the second season, each season has supplied the series with a unique subtitle, such as Onslaught. Each season consists of a format and theme whereby the subtitle is derived. The ORG’s most recent season, *Onslaught 2*, premiered on August 7, 2020.

### TFC History

TFC originated on The Challenge Wiki Fandom Community Blog section, which is where the title of the series derived from. With our past location we could simply track the overall season as a whole. Since then we have grown quite a bit and have expanded to our very own Fandom site. This Fandom site is dedicated to the TFC series and documents the history of the game and all of it’s stats. Doing this move allowed us to track a number of new things including: season performance and history, individual players performance and history, kudo point history, elimination history, and many other stats.

### TFC Overview

The Fandom Challenge is an online reality game with formats similar to MTV's The Challenge that mainly focuses on testing players mobile gaming skills, typing skills, social networking and general knowledge. We currently have a community of over 120 alumni and have hosted a total of 12 main seasons and eight spinoffs. Players compete for bragging rights and our custom TFC currency known as Kudo Points (KPs) which can usually be earned by making a final. The majority of game and communications happen on our Discord server where announcements, challenges, season chats, individual player confessionals and many more things are stored.
Each main season we will cast about 20-24 players and the format can vary from, but are not limited to individual, paired teams or even large teams formats. Most main seasons last for about a month. Each season has its own page that tracks comps played, elimination progression, banks account, individual episodes and numerous others stats depending on the specific format. Every player is also given their own casting pages that tracks their missions wins, elimination wins or losses, kudo points won, what seasons they’ve played in, etc.
We do also host periodic "spinoff" games that incorporate more of a Big Brother/Survivor, or even custom format to keep things fresh and entertaining. We try to limit spinoffs to lasting only about two weeks or less.
