Thanks for the suggestion, but I really think that having different posting times for each problem would confuse all participants. π€―
I think that my idea about providing 2 problems per day (with half the prize for each problem) would minimize participants' problems regarding the time, but it would cost me about twice the time and effort. π€ What if I just make the Math mini-contest only 3 days per month, with each day having 2 Math problems on 12-hour intervals, and the prize is still 1 HIVE per problem? π€π€π
Interesting thoughts! I think I would not be able to participate twice per day, so I'm not sure of this would increase participation, at least from me :) Thinking about it, what about the other way around, a new problem every second day? It would give more time for participation. You could post the solutions in the days between, to also advertise the ongoing tasks?
Thanks again for your feedback! π
How about a rule by which a participant can win only once a day, as to allow the participant who answered correctly to rest? π€ That assumes however that the participant is certain about answering the first problem for the day correctly. π
