- New participants are now required to have at least 20 merits. Merit earned from "merit giveaway threads" will not count towards this quota. Interpretation of what qualifies as a merit giveaway thread is entirely up to my jurisdiction.
- The account age must be at least 100 days old, and have at least 100 activity. "Minimum posts" is now removed.
-- These requirements also exclude Newbies and Jr. Members from joining the challenge.
- It is now required to post a screenshot of your node output in addition to copying and pasting the text. The screenshot must be the size the entire screen.
- Accounts with changed ownership may be removed.

There will be a grace period of 2 weeks for existing users to finish syncing their nodes, with these changes to take effect on November 14.

After this date, unqualified participants may be removed without notice.

I reserve the right to modify the rules or end this challenge at any time, with immediate effect, for whatever reason.

Good luck, and happy node running!

What if the old participant meets the 20 merits and 100 activities requirements and have not fully synced before the 14th of November, will they be removed too?
Secondly, if removed, can I redo the challenge again when I have all the requirements?
