Unfair, unprofessional, and lacking timely notification

As a recent participant in this contest, I have been submitting my results according to the timeline provided in the original announcement. However, I was surprised to discover today that the organizers have changed the review schedule, allowing daily reviews until the 20th. Unfortunately, this change was implemented without any prior notification, causing us to miss the opportunity to participate in the review process. This lack of communication is highly unfair to those who were unaware of the changes.@enzo

The way I read it, the notification says that from today the leaderboard will be updated continuously for every submission till the end of the crunch, instead of only after the checkpoint.

  • Continuous Public Leaderboard - January 20th

What @itchy-agneev said is correct.

People have been complaining about the checkpoints since the beginning, so we now compute the public leaderboard after each run.
Participants will now receive instant feedback on their last submission.

Excellent decision! This will significantly speed up model development.

Wait. Did the organizers extend the submission deadlines for all 3 crunches? Not Jan.31st??? When did they change this? Please confirm the submission deadlines for all 3 crunches. Thank you!

In 2025-01-25’s announcement and in the weekly ama.

what a surprise! I think it’s better to send emails for such important updates cause not everyone joins the forum or discord.
