I see you have 24 points and 2 badges now and are Bronze level. Where have you been looking?
k11work
Have been observing since the last 4 days. I am creating posts , replies and even receiving kudos on the posts Im submitting for the GMATClub Olympics Questions. But they don't seem to reflect in any of the badges. Is it that they'll all start reflecting only after i get 25 kudos and upgrade to silver tier ?

Hey im not getting the badges or points for activities. In the Activities tab, it shows reward as 5 points for kudos , i’ve not been getting these points even though im getting kudos. Also the section shows 0 Posts and 0 Replies for me even though i’ve been creating both. And for the badges : especially Circle Back and Engagement, it shows that I haven’t made any posts or replies yet even though i have. Can you pls check why its not reflecting for me.

Hi, Sorry I don't have the right to the point system. Let's see if other admins see this, or you can post your question in the support forum.

Before posting though, please make sure you understand the rules from the "How to Use" tab on your reward dashboard. Also please check detailed GMAT Club Olympics rules, as the kudos received from the competition may work differently.

If you go through the forum post, you will find the information you are looking for:

Quote:
The requirement was put in place today. From now on, users to have a minimum number of Kudos in order to progress through the levels in the GMAT Club Rewards and continue earning points. What this means is that members will not be able to reach a particular level, for example, Gold level without having at least 50 Kudos. If you are in this situation, your point earning will suspend until you are able to earn the sufficient number of kudos. If you are wondering how to improve your Kudos situation, consider posting helpful posts that go beyond chit-chat or simple question replies. Think about what you would give Kudos for and it won't take long until your efforts are rewarded.


The following Kudos requirements have been set in place:

1 Bronze 0 kudos
2 Silver 25 kudos
3 Gold 50 kudos
4 Platinum 100 kudos
5 Diamond 200 kudos

Seems like you are short on Kudos for Silver level.

Hi. Please see a post right above yours about the points maxing out at 99 until you get to the silver tier.

Rewards/Prizes to Redeem



See the current rewards available here



Rewards System Update:

A change is being introduced to the rewards system as of March 1, 2017:

The moderator group has reviewed Rewards-related activity for the first 3 months of the year and has observed a number of unintended outcomes. As the result, in order to cut down on the number of useless posts observed in forums that started after rewards system introduction, a new requirement has been suggested by a moderator group.

The requirement was put in place today. From now on, users to have a minimum number of Kudos in order to progress through the levels in the GMAT Club Rewards and continue earning points. What this means is that members will not be able to reach a particular level, for example, Gold level without having at least 50 Kudos. If you are in this situation, your point earning will suspend until you are able to earn the sufficient number of kudos. If you are wondering how to improve your Kudos situation, consider posting helpful posts that go beyond chit-chat or simple question replies. Think about what you would give Kudos for and it won't take long until your efforts are rewarded.


The following Kudos requirements have been set in place:

1 Bronze 0 kudos
2 Silver 25 kudos
3 Gold 50 kudos
4 Platinum 100 kudos
5 Diamond 200 kudos


Rewards Terms and Conditions:
By using the GMAT Club Rewards system, you agree to the following terms and conditions.
GMAT Club reserves the right to change the terms of this promotion/offering without prior notice.
Prizes may be subject to change and some prizes are limited in quantity.
Point-earning is not retroactive. Points can only be earned after the introduction of activities/badges/rewards; previous activities/purchases do not qualify.
All redemptions are final.
Points cannot be combined between multiple accounts or transferred from account to account.
GMAT Club staff, experts, tutors, or test-prep/admissions consulting representatives are not eligible for reward redemptions; they can still earn points, however.
The names and trademarks are owned by their respective owners.
Once you redeem a reward, GMAT Club will provide you with instructions to activate/claim it via email or private message on the forum.
Redemptions must be used or activated within 30 days of redemption.
In some cases if schedule, locations, or specific offerings are not available for your redemption, we will work with you to provide an offering of equal or greater value or offer you a points refund.
Some redemptions may be limited by time or usage, such as only available one per user.
We hope that our reward system will encourage collaboration and fosters a healthy competitive setting; if we see abuse of the system, we will change it to better suit our mission and purpose.
