Making CEoM App Better - Feedback / Suggestions / Ideas

I'm thinking we should have a widget displayed in the sidebar to all the logged in users that shows top 5 leaders, your rank etc.

+1 for this widget and if it updates CEan Name in real time it will be great.

Great idea.
However I was just wondering will that Auto refresh 😁

The technicals will be worked out later. I think we better update it on every new pageload.

Names of the CEan's in Hall of Fame should be arranged in sequence of CEan winning that prestigious award.

Currently it is showing in the alphabetical order, and Personally I didn't like the alphabetical sequence for the same.

Does that make sense?

The current arrangement is such that the names are shown and the titles they've won are displayed against the names. The hall of fame puts more focus on the people winning the contest than the contest itself.

I think we'll add some kind of a switch to make it easier for people to view the Hall Of Fame. Plus, we've plans to display the Hall Of Fame, Applications and Live Score in separate 'tabs'.

This is the need of the hour.

We are already 150+ particpants this time, Later or sooner we will have 1000+
We can not keep increasing the page length, so we need to think in the direction to limit that as well.

How about making the participation 'paid'? 😨 . Say $1 to participate and the prize money goes up to $200 or even more (provided someone sponsors it).

participation 'paid' with $1 to participate?
Suggested Prize money to $200, Current is $100
Total Participants more than 150 +

and *still* looking for Sponsors... I don't understand this mathematics 😁 😁
Just Kidding !

What's part of it did you not understand? The sponsors will help the prize money go up beyond $200. But the participants will have to 'pay' to participate. Out of 160+ participants, only 20 will actually 'battle'.

oops !
I misunderstood the *even more* part of it. 😳
On a serious note, at this moment doesn't look like a good idea to me, let it prove it worth for atleast six months to an year and then only should think for that?

Another idea could be, though only winner will be accolade with the CEoM title, we can have freebies (T-Shirts, keyrings, small cash-prize) / prizes for top five.

This will make sure that participants will not leave race when someone on the top will be beyond the reach (as happened in July 2013).

I second this suggestion. A consolation prize for the runners up would be a great idea..

Award +1000 points for the detailed project.
Like each & every step of how to build,configure,etc. with images & if possible then video.
Something like Instructables.

So, what updates are we going to see in the app contest in near future?
