Just curious how many you have given up. Not counting the ones you haven't taken, but ones you tried, got tired of for whatever reason, and just said F*** it.
I gave up Verata and Rotwing. Both were just too much trouble for the reward. It would have required more customization of my team than I felt like putting into it. I run AP caller with Discord for Rotwing (got down to him, and he just wiped me each time), and ran a Imbagon with 2 Discords and a SF for Verata (pulling problems, got all the way there w/ no problems, then continually wiped).
I also dropped a couple missions, but thats because I don't have time to play on all 4 main toons, and am trying to hold the missions that fit into what they need to do. I haven't even touched my Monk in months (trying to get her to Max Survivor, but never get a chance to play).
While I get a kick out of the challenge sometimes, I think the dungeon bounties need to be in the Missions section. There is a big difference between taking 15-45 minutes to run out to kill a dude, and taking 60-180 minutes to run a dungeon you have never run before.
How many Xunlai Challenges have you given up on?

I got the large equipment bag about 2 weeks ago and let up a bit. I try to avoid anything UW/FoW related...

Time's the deciding factor for bounties. If they can be done in 15mins or less, I'll take them. Otherwise I might leave it in a few characters in case there's a guild or buddies run. On missions, I usually just do them on my main character.

If I am not mistaken, none.
I don't bother taking crap I don't plan on doing or the ones where the reward does nothing for me.
(Although I did take Borliss today - and I have no idea why. So that might be first one that I drop.)

Most of the ones I've taken, although I don't take them all. The PvP ones just sit there until I do them (I only take AB and GvG), if I haven't done the others in 3 days or so, I just get rid of them. I only take the quests that I think the character needs - my Warrior needs a lot of Hard Mode stuff so I've been taking the ones she needs.
jonnieboi05
i normally complete the zaishen bounty+mission within' 2 hours of them coming out. they honestly aren't hard if you're an exp'ed player (by experienced, i mean way above your average "experienced" player).
sooo... to answer your question: 0

Have'nt do anything about PvP beside Fort Aspenwood.Too much lag there.
Karia Mirniman
I take everything PvE, trying most, at least to see if anyone in my alliance is doing them. If a zquest takes too long to get a party, I drop it. I like to 'Play Guildwars' not waste my free time trying to start playing. I really think the 3 limit is pathetic.

Anything that doesn't pay well and takes up lots of time gets dropped right away. Since we get new quests everyday, unless you have lots of time to play this game, you have to be very selective.
Missions are generally easy and I tend to favor these over long winded bounty quests since I need guardian title on my ranger. But I make sure short bounty quests are taken up for all my other characters.
Bryant Again
I've given up on Eternal Grove and the Verata bounty. I rarely touch NF missions and never touch GW:EN dungeon quests.
big bubba monk
i farmed my seconds heavy equip pack about 5 days ago and now ive said screw it to all but HB GvG and HA quests
Darcy
If my main needs a mission in HM, she does it. If it is a fast one, I will zip through on my other characters also.
If a boss kill is a fast one, all my characters do it. If, as with Frostmaw, it would take several hours, no one does it.
If I have a backlog and the the one is more inviting than I will drop the most time-consuming one on my list.

Sprites
none , but i've cancelled some without trying them 
distilledwill
Quite a few, I think my eyes are bigger than my... muscles. I take them and then when I get round to making my way to the outpost its about 4 days later and noones interested anymore.
Raven Wing
I gave up rotwing, did Verata with my guild.I would have done a lot of the ab/jq/aspenwood if it wasnt for the fact that I got kurz savior a month ago. I use to take all the pve ones I can, but sometimes I dont get around to do, and its always easier to get ppl to do the recent ones with.
ele pl
Btw. It shouldnt be ZAISHEN instead of Xunlai?
Topic: i am doing mission always, and sometimes pvp/bounty one.

Ive missed out quite a few, ones that arnt worth the trouble, or i just wasn't on gw that day to collect them. Ive still only got 4gold coins, 4 silver, and 25 bronze, that shows i haven't done many.
Sifow Chan
I pretty much only do FA, JQ and AB Z quests. Maybe if the mission or boss is fast I'll do them.
Acehigh
Plenty, due to the fact that alot of them I don't find worth the time and effort for the reward.
Targren
None. But I've given up on a couple of Zaishen challenges.
Gave up on Kunvie on my sin (odd since I stomped her mercilessly with my ranger). I refuse to take any GWEN Dungeon mission or any boss boss bounty inside a dungeon. I just hate GWEN dungeons...

Shayne Hawke
I've taken a bunch that I abandoned because I couldn't be arsed to do them. Does that count?
Only one I can remember trying and totally giving up on was the Z-Bounty for the boss at the end of the Vloxen Excavations dungeon. Some of the mobs in that dungeon were just too much of a bother to get through. Got through it just fine once on Shayne, but my Assassin didn't manage to make it past the first mob in the second floor before I said, "Hell with this," and ditched it.
Besides that, I've done things like accept rewards early when I've gotten fed up, like taking the HA quest reward after two wins instead of six because I got sick of looking for groups. I've also passed up picking up various bounties because the reward doesn't seem worth the effort, or the reward is too worthless to me.

felinette
I haven't given up on any, but I don't take all of them. I only take ones that will advance my main in some way (do a mission in HM I haven't done yet, get points toward a title I haven't maxed, bounty in a zone I haven't vanquished). And so far, the only quest I've done on more than my main is Rocktail, since it was fast.
I'll sometimes hang onto quests for a while. I finally did Tannakhai Temple last night (it was given out at least a week ago).

Anon-e-mouse
When the quests are posted, I have a quick scan to which one(s) are worth bothering with. For Blisterbark I didn't bother picking that one, as marching all the way over to the burning forest in HM, to kill the boss, all for a massive 70 zoins didn't seem worth the effort.
I have done a large number of the quests, even across multiple characters, and still have a fair number to do (I've been storing up some quests on my lesser used toons).

Red-Tide
if it takes more than 30 - 45 mins to complete it, it isnt worth it IMO. So I have a dumped quite a few of the quests.
I have only been doing the PVE quests and am well on my way to a large bag. I have 4 gold coins and quite a few silver and copper coins.

AngelWJedi
i scan them first. and if it takes me like more then ahour to do it or shell out 20k more*coughvloxencough* then i dont take them. i try to do the ones that will help with titles points or have the highest reward. dont do the pvp ones anymore. used to do fa/jq ones but got tired of the wait and people that leech/leave or bot so i gave up.
JoeKnowMo
Tried Moddok with a pug and realized what a pain it is to stop those runners. So I gave that one up b/c it was a little too chancey for my taste.
Tahnakai with just h/h - did it successfully on a few chars, but it required a lot of flagging and the possibility of wiping when h/h were bunched. Gave that up on my remaining chars.

blood4blood
I don't even take most of them b/c I just don't have the time anymore. I did grab "Gates of Kryta" since (1) it's easy and (2) just about all my characters will do it or re-do it at some point anyway. So far I've taken & dropped Eternal Grove & Sunjiang District - RL time constraints, again - I wanted to PUG them in HM for kicks, but by the time I had enough time to do it, nobody else was there looking anymore.
JASON626
eotn missions for most part are fairly fast with more reward than others. prophecies mission are generally longer. Only certain boss bounties. For the most part i'm getting bored with pve quests. I almost have enough for a heavy equipment pack but now i think i'm getting 3 large for same price. Maybe buy heavies later.. Was hoping anet would rebalance and cut the heavy pack cost before i bought something. Looking like thats not going to happen, but they did reduce zaishen summoning stones so who knows :\
Parson Brown
I do the mission if I need it to fill a page in a book. And I still need about 2 Factions and 5 Proph missions in HM for Guardian, so I'm anxiously awaiting those.
I do all the bounties that don't take too long.
PvP I carry the AB/FA/JQ quests until I meet all the bonuses, then cash them in.

nkuvu
I have picked up a few, looked at the actual number of coins rewarded, then dropped the quest while still in Great Temple. For example, I picked up the quest for Harn/Maxine Coldstone on Perdition Rock, found that it was 10 coins in normal mode, and decided it wasn't worth it.
I don't think that's quite what you mean, though.
Any Zaishen quest I've taken, I've completed, or it's still in the quest list.

I did a few before realizing how terrible the rewards for gold coins are.

All I saw was the 1k Vanguard points!
Ebony Shadowheart
I haven't gotten my heavy equip bag yet, but I haven't had the time to really 'farm' the quests either. Generally speaking I do most of the missions and bounties and I have AB, RA, FA, and JQ (combination of) on 4 or 5 diff chars that I have been working towards. Considering I just bought a house and finally have it ready to be moved into (which is what I'll be doing this weekend) most of the longer missions/bounties just take too long. I haven't "given up" on anything at this point. I simply don't take them if I know it's not going to fit into my small time block of play time. Luckily, I won't have this issue next month. =)
HawkofStorms
I have canceled a few, usually if there is a new daily quest that is "better" or "easier" for the time it takes.
I haven't been keeping track, but I'll guess I've abandoned 5-7 of them so far.

Obrien Xp
I didn't give up yet but if the quest has no value to me ie. not for a storybook or not a boss that I'm going to bother with. I ignore them.
