For the various "write a thread that includes" challenges, if you're in a collab thread and one player mentions one of the things to be included, does that count for all the players/characters in the thread, or only for the one whose post it was in?

I'm gonna assume you mean the following challenges. Let me know if there are others you're referring to.

2. Give a nickname to another PC in-thread.
3. Have a PC tell a story from their childhood to a PC.
4. Get into a fight (Verbal or Physical) with another PC.

2 indicates that it should be your PC who gives another a nickname. Doesn't have to be a serious nickname or even something that sticks.
3 doesn't specify whether it's your PC or the other who tells a story of their childhood. I would say either pc can be the one to tell it.
4 indicates that it should be your pc that gets in a fight or argument with another.

No, I understand those. I meant challenges like this one:

1. Write a thread that includes a box, a piece of chalk, and a spider.

Eg. if you have 3 people working together in a thread, one mentions a box, one mentions a piece of chalk, and one mentions a spider, how many (if any) of them could tick off the challenge?

Oh sure, that'll work. Any one of them would work.

.
4. Get into a fight (Verbal or Physical) with another PC.
Any takers? (Can be a dream if that's easier)

I'd be happy to have a dream fight with you, Dandelion. Physical fight or argument?

Either works for me, though his physical combat skills are at best competent, it might be a bit one sided.

Well, Woe isn't great at all weapons. Perhaps he finds himself with a ranged weapon like a crossbow. And/or he's non-lucid. I think that'd still work. up to you and how the dream unfolds. I can start, or you can?

Yeah, that would work. I can start it, if you like.

Here is the thread! Let me know if some aspect of it doesn't work for you and I can edit.
