Let me know if any questions. BB. Congratulations to the winners! Thank you all for participating and everyone (almost everyone ) for your patience. I hope it will be worth the wait.

Everyone on the winning team will! The team that gets the most points at the end of the competition, will win. Every member on the winning team will receive access to the GMAT Club Tests for 2 weeks. The top 3 players on each of the 4 teams will have a choice of the top prizes (the winning team's 3 top users will have the first pick), and then the next 9 will choose their prizes based on the point ranking The remaining prizes will be distributed among the users based on the points earned. Each user is limited to 1 prize. We have a lot of prizes and expect over 500+ people getting something (Full disclosure: the majority of those, will be getting GMAT Club tests for the winning team). In other words, 9 people from non-winning teams will also win prizes based on the above. How Many Teams Are There? There is a total of 4 teams: Avengers , Justice League , X-men , and Guardians of the Galaxy Can I Choose My Team? No, the assignment is random.

Hi guys,

Is there any way where we can keep track of number of questions we attempted in regards to timers.

Thanks.

Hi Varunsawhney8,
Can we how may questions we attempted using timers in dashboard?
I can see only for those HOT questions which I attempted, say 9 questions. For remaining, non-HOT, I cannot see the number of quesitons.

Hi BB,
I am participating in this competition and it has been fun so far. I received your Link to the Grammar Book but unfortunately cannot download the file-it just redirects me to GMATClub homepage. Also dropped you a note separately on this. Will you please be able to help?
Thanks!

What were the consolation prizes again?

C'mon Justice League, we can make it (even though DC couldn't). We really don't want to leave it to the Snyder's cut - aka bribing the mods for more kudos.

Hey bb, I can see the updated score but my 30 timer bonus has still not been added. Is it a technical issue?

I see it is added for everyone else. Usually it is people's inability to count to 30 within the proper timeframe.
I have had to do it last year and count up people's timers for the 24 hrs specified in the first post. We never found an issue with the points system.... I think i started a service offering to count people's timers for a fee ($10 charge and if I find a bug/glitch it is refunded but if the number of timers is incorrect then I get to keep it). nobody took me up on it

Lol..That's a good wager. I'm willing to bet if one of the rules is clear to me.

The competition started at 8 am PST and the rule says,"Taking 30 timers in one day (Points awarded at Noon PST the following day)". So, will the last day be counted to a total of 16 hours till 12 am PST or will it be a full 24 hour period? Because if the last day ended in 16 hours then I will fall short of 30 ,but if you include the full 24 hour period, then we can proceed with the counting as it is way beyond 30.

bb
Yesterday, i was awarded 3 timers points totalling 30 and nothing else. Just now i see my score at 200 for two kudos only, no timers or posts. So scores are not being counted for
1. Timer attempts(attempted all within 1 hr time frame) using GC app
2. Posting solutions (within 1 hr time frame) using GC app
3. Possibly for Kudos if attempts/posts are not being counted.
4. 30 timers(unless questions from HOT competitions and Gmatclub quant questions are not eligible to be counted).

Additionally my error logs shows 39 Questions attempted in the last 24 hrs window. However, what is funny is that error log stats show only 5 questions attempted. If needed i can share the screenshot.

Can you look into it?

Hi.

Moderators, experts, tutors and instructors are not eligible to earn points.

They can still participate but they will not be able to earn points for themselves or their teams.

As a school moderator you fall into that group since you can see other folks replies and edit posts....

Thanks for replying. I had this gut feeling that came true. But as a school moderator i can't see the solutions posted by fellow members nor i can edit. Don't know what is wrong with highlighted part.

Guess i should have known that earlier. Hahaha...

It took all the enthusiasm out of me.

Sorry. It was not an intention to take the wind out of you. There are several moderators who are participating in the competition though, even though they’re not getting points, some are participating even though they know the solutions There are several moderators who are participating in the competition though, even though they’re not getting points, some are participating even though they know the answers ??? but I guess they’re trying to set a standard. (Their contributions or points do not count obviously)

I guess I could strip you of your moderator rights if you would like that

and give them back to you after the competition... that’s an option.... I guess. Just thinking out loud.

As to your error log, can you please PM me the screenshots of what you’re talking about?

Thanks
BB.

Apart from the appreciation, which time zone would be followed while posting questions by moderators and awarding bonus/scores?

The time zone that we mentioned in the first post around every time reference
