Get Active & Gain Points to Win
You have your team. Now what? You earn points by logging your daily activity. Starting Friday, April 16th it’s up to you to get your team to get active and log your activity. Each member is responsible for logging their daily activity. The more members of your team that log their activity the more points you receive. See below for scoring information.
Scoring is simple. The more members that log their activity the more points you receive. We will multiple the team members by your team’s completion rate (%) to score your daily points.
Here’s how the math works out:
- 100 team members * 70% completion rate = 70 points
- 50 team members * 100% completion rate = 50 points
- 75 team members * 33% completion rate = 25 points
- 2 team members * 100% completion rate = 2 points
By the end of the week the team with the most accumulated points wins! All team points will update daily so you can see where your team’s points stack up to the competition.
