Some special things about Standard Challenge:

• Designed to be a text-based challenge, where Players have to input text in order to submit the challenge successfully. The option to upload a photo can help to substantiate their text answer if they like to.
• There is no character limit and Players can enter as many characters as they wish to. However, just note that every completion submitted will be populated in the Activity, with no collapsed view.
