Hello,

challenge of this complexity would probably be denied by your reviewer as too complicated.

Please, read following guideline:
https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=127&pgid=206#standardForCriteria

"The challenge requirements should be simple, and easy to explain, follow and document. A long list of rules or restrictions may prevent publication."

Certainly, these parts are not acceptable any longer:
Geocaching basics II - Find at least 100 travelbugs (move or discover) - 4 credits
Photography I - Upload at least 100 photos in your logs - 4 credits
Social sciences III - Attend at least one MEGA or GIGA event - 5 credits

Darn, I wasn't aware that some of the parts aren't acceptable anymore. That's too bad.

I guess I'll scrap this idea.

Thanks for such a quick answer

No problem.
Don't need to scrap the idea just yet, but you have to skip those 3 and check with your reviewer if he'd be OK with combination of remaining ones in one challenge. In general, it is not recommended to mix too many conditions in one.
