Awesome job pintukr, Nidza, Elite097, and Obscurus leading your teams! Keep it up :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:


Quick note for the top users:
Placement matters - your position will determine your choice of prizes at the end of the competition. e.g. if you are #6, you will be 6th in line to choose a prize. Being #8, you may not have the same options and opportunities for example, so the higher the ranking the better. At the same time, it also helpful to be a top 3 in your team. 😇

Good luck, may the best win.

By the way, the 50 point bonus is still in effect today (Sat) and Tomorrow (Sat) so you can pick up an extra 100 points in these 2 days with 30 timers taken during the day (counting using the Pacific Time).

P.S. I may send this as a PM to folks since some may not be aware and since the questions did not post today...

Despite this being the team based competition, I propose next time onwards give the awards / rewards to top 15% contributors of each group as the top 15% of even the last team would have contributed much more than bottom 85% combined for the winnning team. So in a way, real contributors might not get much but lazy ones in the winning team might get great rewards. Current structure is Quite unfair in that sense.

Thank you for the suggestion. The team side makes things a bit more complicated but we will see about switching things up a bit more to make it more individual... and yes, once you are in a team, there is only so much you can do to to move the needle but our hope is that someone will be the group leader and someone will motivate the members to pitch in.

Spot on! If say top 15~20% from every team gets awarded then what's the point of this competition being a team event. I completely understand people who contributed a lot and still ended up not securing a winning position. Believe me I have participated in such competitions before and never won but this time I gave more than I ever did and thankfully our team won (Though I don't think I am going to secure any prize as I am ranked 14th in our team :| ). So winning and losing are part and parcel of any competition. The only take away you can have is that one should be happy with their efforts and not get disheartened from the outcome. Priority should be to ace GMAT and we should be thankful to gmatclub for providing us this platform cost free. :)

Thank you for the suggestion. I have changed the description somewhat to resolve the discrepancy.
I also added a reward for the Top 10 users in the competition - they will receive a certificate indicating their ranking in the competition so they can add it to LinkedIn or their Resume.

Good luck everyone!

I’m 4-1 doing these tournaments — the one loss clearly being the outlier. Team Lara Croft has a statistical advantage coming in to the tournament

Can the 30 timer questions be taken in Forum quiz or need to be taken normally by going on each post

I think both would work because the guidelines say (below) -> Any questions not just new questions. If we do solve in quiz mode and get mixed questions (existing + contest ones) then also each attempt would get counted.

Bonus 4: 50 Competition Points
Taking 30 timers in one day (Points awarded at Noon PST the following day)
Any questions in the DS/PS/CR/SC forums (RC is not eligible) taken during competition days

bb,

Max daily Competition points per person per question: 180.
What does this above statement mean?
From what I can see, the max points that can possibly be earned per question is 130? So how can someone even get to 180?
10 Points per timer Timer Taken & Correctly Answered Question.
Bonus 1: 10 Competition Points Taking the Timer in the first 120 minutes.
Bonus 2: 10 Competition Points Posting an explanation.
Bonus 3*: 100 Competition Points Getting a Kudos from a moderator.
100+10+10+10 = 130; ?

Ah. Sorry about that. Thank you. You right. I added 50 from the single timer daily bonus. Thx for bringing it up. I updated the first post to describe it accurately.
