UNCHAINED MELODY:
Create filks with your team's theme song.

Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.

BUY YOURSELF FLOWERS:
Listen to an audio fanwork of yours and write yourself a comment of all the things you love about it. You don't have to share it, but you could—it would probably make a pretty good self-rec!

Point value: 20 points per comment.

BE HERE NOW:
Sit down to record an audio fanwork without having done any pre-planning for what you will record. Choose the fandom and story only after you are all set up to record. Follow your whims in that exact moment! Choosing off a pre-made list is okay, but it must either be a list you created before this challenge began or a list created by somebody else.

Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.

NICK OF TIME:
Finish and submit an audio fanwork you began before this round of Voiceteam started. The work cannot have been previously submitted for Voiceteam points.

Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.

Thank you to carboncopies for suggesting this challenge!

IN THEIR SHOES:
Record something featuring a favourite thing (ship, character, trope, audio format, story element) of one of your team members. The team member in question may not contribute to this work for points.

Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.

Thanks to Jetainia for this challenge idea!

From Mystery Box 2020

INSPIRED BY:
Create a fanwork inspired by an existing audio fanwork made by someone on your team. Your fanwork could be audio, visual, a poem, acting out a scene with hand puppets, or whatever you want.

Point value: 20 points for each player who contributes, +20 points if it requires significant time, effort, or energy on your part.

From Voiceteam 2021

BACK UP YOUR JUNK:
Choose 10 of your already-posted audio fanworks and add links to one other hosting website to extend longevity of the fanwork. (If you haven't posted 10 podfics, you get the points for adding additional links to all the ones you have posted.) Bonus points for every 5 podfics you back up beyond the original 10.

Posting a fanwork that has been submitted for Voiceteam but not yet posted is a valid interpretation of backing up that fanwork.

Point value: 30 points for the first set of audio fanworks backed up. +10 points for every 5 additional audio fanworks backed up.

Thanks to Jocunda Sykes for suggesting this challenge!

From Mystery Box 2022

TALK BACK:
Either live-listen to or live-record an audio fanwork with at least one other Voiceteam player. Then co-record some kind of live audio response to the audio fanwork you just experienced together. The audio response must be at least 5 minutes long and could be a discussion of the story, a notfic prequel/sequel/story that happens between scenes, a reaction to the podfic itself, or something else.

Point value: 25 points for an audio response to a shared listening experience. 45 points for submitting a shared recording experience plus audio response.

From Voiceteam 2023

YOUR MISSION, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT:
Complete your team's mission. Bonus for guessing other teams' missions. Bigger bonus for keeping your own mission secret.

(You will find your team's mission ten minutes from now in your team channels. You know where.)

Point value: 35 points for each fanwork submitted that contributes to your mission. If your team correctly guesses another team's mission, every team member who contributed to your team's mission earns 10 points. If no other team correctly guesses your team's mission, every team member who contributed to the mission earns 50 points.

This challenge is taking the place of the Mod Dare in Round 3.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY:
Combine two or more previous Voiceteam challenges.

Point value: Base of 20 points for a non-audio-fanwork project that combines at least two challenges, or 35 points for an audio fanwork that combines at least two challenges. Bonuses of +10 points if the project combines at least five challenges, +15 points if it combines at least ten challenges, or +20 points if it combines at least fifteen challenges. (Bonuses do not stack.)

Thanks to Schittposting and SerenaEW for inspiring this challenge. And happy fifth Voiceteam anniversary to us all!

AND THE BAND PLAYS ON:
Create a non-filk audio fanwork with a title that is a lyric from your team's theme song.

Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.

THE EXACT RIGHT NUMBER OF COOKS:
Everyone on your team who wants to can submit a single audio clip up to 10 seconds long. Players are not allowed to discuss ahead of time what clips they will submit or listen to anyone else’s clip before submitting their own.

Once all the clips are in, create an audio fanwork, with a cohesive plot, that incorporates as many of your team’s clips as possible. This audio fanwork (e.g. filk, podfic, oral not!fic) may also include any other words, music, sound effects, etc that you want!

Point value: 10 points for submitting your clip. 40 points for creating an audio fanwork that incorporates at least 3 clips, +5 points for each additional clip incorporated.

LISTEN TO THIS!:
Create an audio rec of a podfic that you did not make. Your audio rec should be under 5 minutes, and it must include a snippet of the podfic you are reccing as well as your own voice explaining why you recommend it.

Point value: 25 points per recommendation.

SOAPBOX:
Write podfic meta about anything. Minimum length of 500 words or 3 minutes of audio.

Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.

Thank you to Jocunda Sykes for suggesting this challenge!

FRESH NEW SOUND:
Create an audio fanwork in which you give at least one character a character voice that you have not used in an audio fanwork before. Silly voices are encouraged!

Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.

DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH:
Podfic a story that's at least a week old and has fewer than 100 hits.

Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.

Thank you to Jocunda Sykes for inspiring this challenge!

MAKE A MULTIVOICE:
Make a multivoice fanwork (podfic or oral not!fic) with multiple team members, at least two of whom share that fandom.

Point value: 35 points for each team member who contributes.

From Voiceteam 2020

INTO THE UNKNOWN:
A player sets some parameters (e.g. max length, rating, trope preferences, vetoed fandoms) and teammates can suggest works to record in fandoms the player isn't in. The person who found the fic should be prepared to assist with pronunciation or context. If the podfic is a multivoice, the player who set the parameters must have the largest role.

Point value: 15 points for finding the fic, or 35 points for contributing to the podfic. (Note: If the person who found the fic also contributes to the podfic, they receive 35 points, not 50.)

From Mystery Box 2021

SPREAD THE WORD:
Promote the concept of permission statements (optionally including the Fandom Permission Statements website) on journals/social media sites/etc. to encourage more authors to post permission statements. Posts you make should be significant promo and not just a retweet/reblog. Bonus points for each permission statement posted in direct response to your promo. The bonus applies for ANY permission statement posted, not just blanket yes!

Point value: 20 points for each promo, +5 bonus points for each new permission statement posted.

From Voiceteam 2022

SNUGGLE UP:
Find a way to be extra cozy while creating an audio fanwork. This might be recording in your favorite comfy clothes, with your favorite stuffy or comfort object, with an extra cozy-feeling drink, or decorating your recording space with some cozy new decorations. If you are contributing cover art, editing, etc to someone else's recording, you must also find a way to make yourself extra cozy while doing so!

For those in the Northern Hemisphere or a tropical climate, feel free to consider "cool and refreshed" a valid interpretation of cozy for the purposes of this challenge!

Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.
