Inquiry as regards Actual Deadline
Help · 11 May 2025, 05:14 · 20
I'm very much shocked, even if it is stated that the "Reveal" comes before the "Close" which in itself is very weird, it still very much apears to be one big bug in the system(I do not mean any disrespect here).
Normally, when competitions end, it goes from "submit" to "get a score", In this case, we can still "submit"?
And, the competition also has it that the deadline for "submission close" is 12th of May
Agree, very disappointing. Never even had the chance to make the final submissions that we've been working on, or to select our best submissions for consideration
Well if it comes to selecting the best submissions you are safe, it was the best private score at the end. It's just disappointing how many submissions you could have made today to make a difference.😮💨
It's really weird waking up to this news. Don't understand what's going
We all don't.😮💨
A Typical Zindi competition nowadays :3 .
So disappointing.
what's weird to me is it says submission deadline is 1am tomorrow, and the comp is still saying 18 hours left.
This has come as a surprise to us tooo!!
I was expecting the deadline to be today, and we had experiments lined up for today
But it seems they will all go to waste since people now can actually see their private scores
Sigh 😮💨. I will start reading every single detail before I start a competition now.
To be honest, while i understand why you'd want to read every single detail, it is just weird that the competition is still open but the private scores have been revealed
I think this was just a mistake from Zindi, not your fault at all
Exactly!
It is no use to better the score whiles the private score is visible. Very disappointing.
The question is, what happens next
I hope they get back to us on time with a good explanation. This is so weird. By the way congrats @Koleshjr
We can only wait to see😅
Thanks brother
The board is back to normal. Should we continue?
Zindi is sending mixed signals here. but I guess we can continue. most people already know what works and what doesn't.
Indeed, but I wonder if they will send a different code review email.
I guess the order didn't change and they wont be sending new emails
