What you'll do
- Complete hunches in Ping — up to 5 count each day toward your score.
- Invite friends for extra points — earn points when friends you invite become active.
- Stay on the list — complete at least 3 hunches each week.
Submit weekly feedback to qualify that week and unlock invites. The goal is to admit 50+ new members each week and grow the community to 100+ members.
Daily routine
Complete hunches, share feedback, and invite friends if you’d like.
- Complete hunches — 1 point each; up to 5 count per day (max 35 hunch points per week).
- Invite friends — each friend who completes a hunch on at least 3 separate days counts once (+10), in the week they hit that third day.
- Weekly feedback — required to qualify for scoring that week and to unlock invites. Feedback itself does not add points.
- Stay on the list — complete at least 3 hunches each week. If you miss that minimum, your seat may return to the invite pool.
How scoring works
Personal
Your score = your hunch points + your activated invite points.
- 1 point per completed hunch. Up to 5 count each day · max 35 hunch points per week.
- +10 per activated invite: a friend who completes a hunch on at least 3 separate days. Each friend counts once, in the week they complete their third qualifying day.
- Highest total wins. Ties go to whoever completed a hunch on more days that week.
Submit your weekly feedback to qualify for scoring that week and unlock invites. Feedback does not add points.
Stay on the list: complete at least 3 hunches each week. Invites can earn points but aren’t required to stay on the list.
