All of the following is subject to change, but what we’re thinking is several public global challenges along the following lines:
- Blitz stays as it is, appearing somewhat randomly, and in the medium-term gaining more interesting mechanics exclusive to that mode
- Weekly Bingo
- Monthly Bingo
- Workweek Hustle
- Weekend Warriors
Each challenge would have it’s own unique badge, like Blitz has today, rather than sharing the badge the private challenges use. StepSmash+ folks can compete in as many of the active challenges as they want, and folks on a free account can compete in 1 active challenge at a time.
When this is live and we have a better idea of the kinds of user numbers we’re going to see per-challenge we’d likely consider Member ranking for games as a way of more closely match-making the challenges to improve the competitiveness further.
