WIP Challenge "Seats"

Open rootelement opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

We need to add the ability to limit the number of people who can register for a challenge.

Add challenge.seats - If it doesn't exist, or it's set to 0, it's unlimited.

On the challenge registration, when a user registers, make sure there's a seat available.

Questions

  1. What prevents someone from registering for a challenge, taking a seat, and not doing the work?
  2. Would we use the for public challenges? Or just private/group challenges?
  3. Should we add registration requirements somehow? Base rating?

  1. We have that problem with open reg today with non submission but obviously squatting here would be an issue. I'd hate to introduce checkpoints and complicate things but how about a negative incentive. Squatting without a valid submission dings the member somehow or blocks them from later registrations.
  2. I think all, myself
  3. Do you mean limit reg to a filter on member traits of some kind? It's a good idea but prolly too complex for first iteration of this
