The '''SingStar Challenge''' was a video competition phase of the [[CWCivil War]], initiated by [[Solid Chris]]. Previously, Solid (posting under the YouTube handle [[IBAChandler]]) had attempted to reestablish his TRUE and HONEST identity with videos showcasing his multiple talents. This cunning plan backfired miserably, as [[Liquid Chris]] (posting as [[CChanSonichuCWC]]) outdid Solid's talents in his own videos. This included playing ''[[CWC More Than A Feeling#Response|More Than a Feeling]]'' on a real [[guitar]], shaming Solid's [[CWC More Than A Feeling|''Guitar Hero'' rendition]]. Butthurt that Liquid had an actual talent, Solid recognized that the clear solution was to formalize the contest, thus eliminating such dirty tricks.
The '''Financhu Crisis''' is a term coined by users from [[Kiwi Farms]] to describe the steep decline in the Chandler family's [[Chris and money|financial management]] beginning in early [[2016]].

The challenge would have a unique legacy among Christory, as it cemented the popular image of Liquid Chris as a relatively "harmless" troll in the eyes of many fans who look at the Classic Era with rose-tinted glasses.

The Financhu Crisis is a term coined by users from Kiwi Farms to describe the steep decline in the Chandler family's financial management beginning in early 2016. Signs of the Chandlers' worsening finances were made apparent by the increasing amounts of begging videos and donation requests on YouTube and Facebook.
