Dear forum member,
today we're celebrating the 11th Anniversary of the Mix Challenge audio community.

Another year has passed - time is but a fluke. We have just completed the 11th year since the start of this endeavor. The 104th Mix(ing) Challenge and our 094th Songwriting Competition are currently underway. And you guessed it - there is more to come!
The last year has been a bit slow in terms of changes and improvements for our community. I've only been able to make small steps, but these will have a bigger impact over time. More visuals for the Mix(ing) Challenge, testing new game mechanics for the Songwriting Competition, customizing sections on our Discord server, branching out to Bluesky, improving the newsletter, fine-tuning the automated Forum User Account Cleanup Process, and I am also working on some things that you may see later this year. On that behalf, I would also like to thank you for your patience when things go slower than expected - there are only so many hours in the day.
Once more, I can only reiterate my gratitude to everyone who have been (and still are) part of this small community. From our song providers, to our greathearted license sponsors, the monthly participants, to all the very generous patrons, to all those who go the extra mile and spread the word about this community, the cross-community support and collaboration, those that check in ever so often for a chat, our Discord users, etc.
Without you, your help and words of encouragement, the Mix Challenge might have vanished quite a while ago. Please keep up the good work, reach out, share knowledge, interact. Thank you ever so much!
Let us please raise our mugs / glasses (with your favorite beverage in them) and wish our small community joy and all the best.
Here is to "year 12"!
