By default, the challenge leaderboard displays on the admin page with the current standings for the top teams or participants with actual names. This is the case regardless of whether you chose to run an individual challenge or if you selected to use anonymous names. On the participant page, the user as well as the ten participants immediately above and below in leaderboard standings will be shown. If you click on the More (ellipsis) button in the Leaderboard panel, the Reporting dialog will appear. From here, you have the following additional options:
For challenges with multiple activities, leaderboards are available for each to display activity leaders. Click the Activity Leaderboard button to view the leaderboard dialog. The Activity Leaderboard has the same options available as the Challenge Leaderboard (shown above). If you would like to make the Activity Leaderboard available to your challenge participants, click the Edit Activity button and then select option: Display leaderboard for this activity to participants.
In addition to a traditional horizontal bar chart, the leaderboard can be shown as a challenge map. The map route starting and finishing line as well as any waypoints are chosen by the admin and displayed on a global map. In addition, the admin sets the number of points that correspond with a mile or kilometer. Participant position on the map is shown as a marker along the route based on the number of points the participant has earned. Just like any challenge in the system, points can be awarded for walking, hydration, meditation, or any other activity the admin chooses. For more information on creating a challenge map, please see: Enable Challenge Map
NOTES:Each activity will have an associated Activity Data button. When clicked, a dialog is displayed with all data points for each participant with dates and values. This report is very useful for verifying user data and can also be used to generate custom leaderboards when downloaded into a spreadsheet.
Users may also view participant data as a scatter chart which more clearly illustrates outlier data (data points that fall outside of two standard deviations). This is useful when determining data entry problems i.e. typing errors where entered value is too large or too small. To display the scatter chart, click the View Chart button.
The activity data dialog also has a unique feature that will allow admins to bulk upload participant data. This feature is useful for uploading large volumes of past or current participant data. If you choose to bulk upload data using a csv file, gather the participant email addresses including data point dates and values in a spreadsheet (a template file is provided) and click the Upload button. The file will be verified and, if everything checks out, the participant’s data will be included in your challenge when you click Finish.
NOTES:Any challenge that uses milestones to track participant progress will have a Milestone Progress report available. This report lists all challenge participants (or teams) and displays the time and date when each participant crosses a given milestone. Each column is sortable in either ascending or descending order by clicking on the column header. The sorting feature is useful when determining who crossed a particular milestone first.
The Milestone Progress report is particularly helpful when creating an event-based challenge where the challenge winner is determined by when a participant crosses a certain milestone as opposed to who has the most points on a given date. When coupled with a Challenge Map, this report can be used to create an effective race where points can be awarded for any activity the challenge administrator chooses. For more information on setting up milestones, please see: Fitness Challenge Milestones
If your challenge is using milestones and awards, an Awards Report button is available on the Leaderboard panel. Once clicked, the Awards dialog appears detailing users who qualify for awards and the award they selected. See Setting Milestones and Awards above for more details.
