General notes
All of the entries are ranked at the end of the contest by the client. Aside from winning the prize, the highest-ranked designer also receives 50 points added to their ranking. Second place gets 40 points, third place gets 30 points. Designers who enter a CAD design within 48 hours will also get a 5 point “Earlybird” bonus. Your overall ranking is based on the total of the points you receive for all your entries and is calculated once per day.
Other points (depreciated)
You may also earn points through your participation within the Cad Crowd Community. Voting for a new designer or participating in a CAD Court Case will garner you 2 points. Reporting a comment to the administration that is subsequently removed is worth 20 points.
