The leaderboard doesn't stop surprise me. Some days, i dropped. Another days, i climbed.

During the weekend, i climbed from 8th place to 2nd place after the round of 32 is finalized.

And I can testify, it is one of the best submissions I select without any post-update.

Now I start seeing the payouts of my ML approach.

PS: Congrats to @CodeJoe (1st place) @me (3rd place) and @DBGG(4th place) for their big jump. I'm so shocked. But remember, it is just a tool which approximate and the only truth will come from the zindi leaderboard.

Tomorrow, I will share my solution here and fun facts about this tool on the website, so stay tuned. As promise, a very detail article will be post about the entire journey behind this competition at the end of everything (21st july 2026).
