Simple, straight forward, pure points accumulation from start of race to end. It's to your advantage to start early, and more so to wait until the race starts to report tasks, although there's a daily quota and no points are awarded until validated.

I did a little reading on the challenge. It appears that the challenge is about the % increase a team has. So a team like ours that doesn't run much WCG can get a huge % change and get higher stats. Teams that are always running WCG will get less.
I kinda like the idea since, as we've seen on PG, the same 3 teams are always on top pointwise

Does anyone have a recommended project to run? (I'm on a P4 3.2 GHz machine if that matters.)
