Welcome,

Why are a winner in a first place has a few MRs than one on the second place? how that ranked!

What are the advice for beginner before selecting issues and how to manage Hackathon time properly?

Thank you, Fatima.

I think you’ve already seen my response on Discord, but for everyone else:

A merge request which relates to an existing issue is worth 5 points. A merge request with no related issue is worth 1 point.

All the information is on the Hackathon page.

Any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask- thanks!
