To accept this Growth Challenge, within April through June:
Reply to this thread with the elements of the challenge that you are planning to try!
Talk to other roleplayers! See if they're interested in working together to meet some of the objectives!

To COMPLETE the Growth Challenge, before the 5th of July:
 Grow your number of active RPs—join something new! Or two! Or three!
 Grow as a player—become a Storyline creator and expand on your roles by picking up responsibility for the health and growth of your RP—checking in on players, trying to write posts that are easy for other players to respond to, and keeping the RP thread moving with your own activity!
 Nourish your activity levels—dedicate an hour to RP every other day (or more often!) and see your RP threads grow!
 Roleplay actual character development—show your character growing, having their own ideas and notions challenged, how they react to those changes, moving on to become stronger, or maturing as a person! Practice growth in your own writing to keep it from becoming stagnant. Give your characters a new dimension!
Edit your acceptance post to show what challenges you completed!

Complete two objectives above and earn this loveliest of lovely pretty elegant bumper made by Diana!

How can the RP staff help you out?
Join the RP Activity group and connect with all the RPers there to trade ideas and get excited about RPing!
 Bump your Storyline's OOC threads to remind people to post! A friendly "Hey! Let's RP our Storyline!" PM is nice, too! Contact ♅ Sailor Uranus if you would like opinions on what to say in a reminder PM!
With the help of a Rainbow Crystal Stamp Holder, consider arranging your own "Real Time RP" (RTRP)! See ♄ Sailor Saturn for details with scheduling use of the RTRP Discord channel!

I accept this challenge!

I want to grow my active RP count past the one or two I had before this challenge

• I've created a new RP with Sailor Mercury (Rift) and joined Substitutes of Justice
  
• Revived and re-joined lots of different RPs that I adored and am super excited about (Paramnesia, PMUM, AtKS, To Rise Again)
  
• We're in the process of beginning the long-time-coming Tsubasa RP <3
  

I want to grow my own personal activity levels, both on the forum and on Discord chats

• Been trying to be more talkative on Discord, so yayyy..? xD
  
• Attempt to keep up to posting in each of my RP at least once a week, but always pushing to be quicker! (doing okay so far, but have to keep working to keep it up!)
  

I want to grow my character roster by playing a character that is not Rei or Minako

• Still have a lot of Rei and Minako in my list (I love them, what can I say xD) but with the revival of PMUM, I do play Makoto now!
  
• Oh! With Rift, I am playing a female version of Rubeus!
  
• I also am playing Luna in Our Pets Save the Day (but technically started that before the challenge heheh)
  
• Also currently working on adding a new antagonist to my roster
  
• I'll be playing Hotaru in an upcoming RP!

- Once I get Minako up and moving, I'll be trying to resurrect one and start another. Both are 1v1.

At least knowing the challenge was on did get me working on the profile here and there this month! I probably wouldn't have at all otherwise.

- I think I've probably fallen into a bit of a rut with Pluto in To Rise Again. I'll be looking to take her out of her comfort zone and interact more with the other Senshi in my next posts!

Noone responded to my post X'''D. Maybe I wasn't direct enough in my dialogue so it didn't inspire a response... Gotta try a bit harder next time!

Despite failing utterly, I'm still glad I took the challenge! I learned a bit to help me in the future. So, I'm looking forward to the next one! ^-^v

Acceptance Post:

Spoiler:

Question-would creating your first otaku senshi profile count as growing as a player?

If you think it's made you grow then sure~

Ok! I'm going to pick these two:
  Grow as a player—Create first otaku profile-Update 6/18-done!
  Nourish your activity levels
-I've been more active in our pets save the day and Dissidia Multiverse this month then the past two. EDIT: I've been in two RTRP events this month, and am also in the current casual event!

Five days left to complete the challenge and earn the bumper~

Does the "join a roleplay" and "create a roleplay" count if the threads are pending?

Unfortunately, not unless they were finalized yesterday or you attempted to get them finalized by end of day yesterday and are just waiting on final approvals 
  The process for creating the roleplay (storyline approval and posting it into play in one of the rp sections) and the process for joining the rp (character approved and posted within the rp) has to be completed within the three months this challenge was still active, which is -

There is timezone wiggle room, but the final just-before-approval posts would have needed to be made before midnight between the 4th and 5th in the poster's timezone.

Ah. Okie dokie, I missed this one 

There is always the Summer challenge and card!
