Gambler’s Challenge 3.0

I hear you like random anime. To keep the excitement up and the experience more focused, we just give you only anime using my favourite genres! Wait ?. That doesn't make sense for your challenge... Let me check if we can do something about that. Oh I see, we are in luck: the newest firmware upgrade to our beloved @AWCBotchan includes the usage of “genre coins”. With that you can select which genres will be used. Hope your dice are still loaded. Third time's the charm.

Reply to this thread with your selected genres and @AWCBotchan will generate 33 random anime for you!

__To include a genre write “+Genre” in your message, to exclude it write “-Genre”__

You must include exactly 3 genres
You can exclude up to 3 genres
You should spell the genre exactly as on AniList (e.g. “Sci-Fi”), otherwise you might confuse poor @AWCbotchan
For example, a valid reply would be “+Mahou Shoujo +Sports +Sci-Fi -Music -Action”
If your message is not valid (e.g. not including exactly 3 genres, excluding more than 3 or excluding genres you have included) @AWCBotchan will not reply

You must choose any 20 of these to watch
It may take up to 24 hours for the bot to reply to you
You need to state exactly 3 genres you want to be included and up to 3 genres you want to be excluded
You will not receive any hentai (unless you include it explicitly), music videos, or anime you have already completed

AWCBotchan may decide you should give an anime you have dropped or paused a second chance

You **must** start over and rewatch it from the first episode if you decide to use it as one of your 20 anime

AWCBotchan does her best to select anime that you can start without needing to have seen other shows first

For example, you will not receive sequel or prequel relations that aired after an anime if you haven’t seen the original

Note that not all of your anime picks will be available to watch with subtitles, which is why you only need to watch 20/33 of them
Just like gambling, you're stuck with the hand you’re dealt! Deleting your comment and re-entering the challenge won’t change your anime
If you’re not able to source at least 20 of them, or you’ve received an anime that you think you shouldn’t have, then please open a Support Ticket in our Discord server, or post a message to our FAQ thread
AWCBotchan is rather shy and doesn't like to be messaged, and is prone not to read fan mail, so please don't message her directly! <3

The anime you watch __must__ be [correctly logged on AniList](https://i.imgur.com/pYHuyM6.png) to count

To log watched episodes, set an anime to watching and increment the episodes via the Anime In Progress panel on the AniList home page
An activity showing the episodes as watched will appear in your feed. For movies and anime with only 1 episode, the activity will show the anime as completed.

You cannot use speed watching to complete this challenge
Speed watching is watching an anime at 2x speed / 3x speed, etc. This goes against the spirit of AWC challenges.
There is no time limit to complete this challenge
Gambler’s Challenge 3.0 does not replace any other Gambler’s Challenge. You do not need to enter or complete any of the previous Gambler’s Challenges!
Your watching activity must be visible on your profile — This includes all episode progress and an activity showing each anime as completed
Your activity must include the start and end dates, which can be added in the AniList List Editor
Your profile must be set to public so we can verify your anime list and activity

__How To Enter The Challenge__
Post a comment in this thread to enter the challenge. @AWCBotchan will reply to you with a selection of 33 random anime based on your genre preferences
You should update your entry comment to include the 20 anime you choose to watch
The date you post the entry comment is your challenge start date
You can keep track of your progress through editing your comment here, or update it when you are finished

Gambler’s Challenge 3.0 Code

You **must use the challenge code we have provided** for your challenge entry

You should only change the text in red to add the information for your challenge
You can still customise and personalise your challenge entry in the ways described below
_For more information about personalising your entry, please read our [Challenge Code Update](https://anilist.co/forum/thread/17826) post_

**The anime picks you choose must be placed in numerical order** (eg. 1, 6, 10, 19, 27, etc.)

All dates **must** use the YYYY-MM-DD format

These dates must match the dates in your list editor and your profile activities

All requirement numbers must use a 01) format

You may use either title links or preview cards for requirements

These should always be placed alone on the next line after the requirement text
Title links are provided by default in the code and can be included using the format: `[Anime_Title](anime_link)`
Preview cards will be automatically generated by simply including a link to the anime or manga: `anime_link`
You must use title links for hentai and adult anime, even if the rest of your challenge uses preview cards

When additional information is required, you must use `//` to separate the information as shown in the challenge code

You should not add any extra new lines or include any more than the required information
Do not place any information inside a spoiler tag: if an image or screenshot is requested, you must include it as a link

You can change the status indicators to any symbols or emojis of your choice

The status indicator must be located between the requirement number and requirement text
You must use different symbols or emojis for each status, if they are too similar then your submission may be delayed or rejected
The status indicators must be noted in the legend located in the header of your post
You may add additional statuses to the legend, such as "Watching" or "Rewatched"

You can change the size of text, center it, make it bold, italicized, or strikethrough it

Each requirement number must be the first thing on their line, so do not add any formatting options directly before them

You may customise the header of the challenge code as long as it includes the same information

The header is the section above the first `
` in your entry comment, before the actual requirements
For example, you may wish to add a challenge banner, anime graphics or other visual elements

You may customise the footer of the challenge code in any way you like

The footer is an optional section below the requirements in your final reply only
You should include a `
` to separate out your footer, if one is not already present in the code
For example, the footer can be used to personalise your entry with more graphics, links to your other challenges or your favourite anime from each year
