yes i have same question and continuous values decrease the mse

@ai...... I don't think you should worry yourself too much on that. The simple trick i will suggest, is to round up these continous "Growth Stages" in your prediction and later submit. Then check if you will still have the same score or not on the Leaderboard when comparing these to your previous submitted continous prediction. That's my candid advise anyway. Good luck....

However, we will all appreciate this if @Zindi can come in on this question that's been begging for answers for a while now in this challenge.

@Zindi , This is a crucial question to answer. Please do not ruin efforts of the participants, just because question was left unanswered.

Yes, continuous prediction is allowed.
