    some good points raised here dougw


    I know for myself working on these challenges sometimes feel like you’re working in a bubble. I myself try to communicate with some of the challenges . in in the past I have been successful and getting some feedback of what the other challenges are doing. It is it is a contest and there is prizes but there’s still room for collaboration amongst the challengers. I have to admit, for me for this particular challenge I was not very collaborative and was struggling with getting the development environment set up and understanding the hardware.  Also the changing of the date, which makes sense because of matters out of the organizers control, probably aid in some of the lack of interest of challenges to complete the blogs.

    just my 2 cents…

    Congrats to the 9 challengers that compiled the required 5 blogs and good luckClapPray

    It looks like we had 35 participants, 11 of which generated blogs and 9 of which completed at least 5 blogs.

    9 is a good number of completed entries in a contest, but it wasn't a high percentage of the large starting group. (< 30%)

    At least it makes the judging less work.
