Season 3 - Leaderboard Rankings
Leaderboard Rankings -
A system to reward consistent results and participation during the challenge season
Here it is! As previously mentioned, a new leaderboard ranking system is being introduced this season. This has been designed to incorporate all challenges, linking with each set of results. Each place in a challenge has points on offer -- the higher you finish, the more points you gain. Then at the end of the season, prizes will be given out to the top 10 in the final standings, with the winner being crowned the Grand Champion! The Leaderboard There are 3 types of leaderboards (click to jump to them below): Global (25 challenges) Weekly and Extended (14 challenges) Monthly and Custom Content (11 challenges)
Each of these has a link to a spreadsheet version hosted on OneDrive, which has some additional columns. There you can also view the history of the leaderboard using the tabs (sheets). These can be selected at the bottom, once the results for that challenge are updated. The Global leaderboard applies to all challenges, where the points gained are totalled up to make up the overall standings. Also to give people more opportunity (who may not be interested in the monthly events), there are separate leaderboards for both pairs of challenges. On each challenge, it will confirm which leaderboards are eligible. Summaries will be posted with the key happenings concerning the leaderboard standings. If you'd like to know how it all works, please take a look below...
End of Season Prizes Following the conclusion of this season's 25 challenges, prizes will be given to the top 10 places in each of the leaderboards, along with special rewards for those inside the top 3. This will include reputation prizes, which are fixed amounts for each eligible place. By the way, with reputation, some new ranks will be added to hopefully make this more interesting. We also have some other special prize ideas including profile medals, which are to be arranged. Stay tuned!
