Overview

This article explains the 7-Day Publishing Challenge (7 DPC) duration policy and what happens if participants cannot complete the challenge within the standard 7-day timeframe.

Challenge Completion Policy

Prize Eligibility

  • You will still be eligible for prizes even if you miss the 7-day deadline

  • Prize eligibility is based on completion, not timing

  • Submit for your prizes upon completion regardless of when you finish

Completion Guidelines

The following priorities apply to the 7-Day Publishing Challenge:

  1. Primary Goal: Complete the entire challenge

  2. Secondary Goal: Complete within 7 days (if possible)

Key Principle: It is more important for you to finish the challenge than to finish within 7 days.

Recommended Approach

  • Aim for 7 days as your initial target

  • Keep going if you do not finish within the deadline

  • Submit upon completion regardless of timeline

  • Focus on quality over speed

Encouragement and Support

We encourage all students to:

  • Continue working at their own pace

  • Complete the full challenge requirements

  • Submit their work for prize consideration when ready

  • Not feel discouraged by missing the 7-day target
