Sorry if this is a repeat question..

Is there an overview of how your challenges are set up, how points are calculated, etc. I saw an FAQ in the challenges section, but it doesn't fully explain to a newbie how it all works, it seems to mostly talk about how things have change. I'm confused about the % off coupons, points and required % of challenges.. ugh! :confused:

Looks like challenges need to be completed within a month's time? or is this calculated on some other timeline. It doesn't actually state deadline.

Thanks

Also each individual challenge has the deadline listed in there. For TOTM you get a month and the others, you usually have seven days. There are some exceptions like the hybrid for day #2.
 
Here's where Robin explains it.

Basically, there's a challenge a day. Each challenge is worth 1 point. When you earn so many points, you earn a % off coupon to use during a designated period the following month. So the January points will be worth a coupon to use over a period of time in February. You don't have to keep tally. Megan does that for you. Just make sure to post in the challenge thread each time you complete the challenge.

Welcome to SSD! If you have any other questions, just ask!
The rules are simple...

Check each daily thread in the current month's special forum and complete the challenge by the posted deadline. For most challenges, you'll have 1 week (7 days) to complete the task for points but you may have longer for special challenges such as the Treat of the Month lift or hybrid projects.

Upload your completed layout or photo if applicable to your standard member gallery (no special gallery is necessary with our new format) and post a link to your page, blog post, etc under the daily thread to which it belongs.

Earn 1 point for each daily challenge completed. Points will only be given to those posters who reply with the correct information within each daily thread.

Sweet Rewards will be earned according to the following point breakdown:

15+ points (50% of the challenges) = 20%
22+ points (75% of the challenges) = 30%
27+ points (90% of the challenges) = 40%

This point schedule may be adjusted slightly each month for the exact # of days in the month. ie. as February has fewer days, you'll need fewer points to earn the various discounts.

Every day a new challenge is posted...most of them have 7 days for a deadline (except the TOTM - that's month-long...any other exceptions will be noted in the challenge threads). You get 1 point for completing that challenge (by posting a link back to the challenge thread) - Meg keeps track of it all and at the end of the month you will receive a coupon for a certain % off depending on how many challenges you completed. The coupon will work for 5 days (Monday thru Friday) usually the first week of the next month (so if you were gaining points during January, you'd receive a coupon in the first few days of Feb to use during a set period of time in Feb).

HTH!
