To wrap up a hanging thread, the logic for the monthly badges will account for timezone offsets: published solutions will include (in UTC)
- the current month
- the last day of the previous month, and
- the first day of the next month

Missed the May badge. Prolog was too different for me to learn on the fly and muddle my way through.

Would love us to have a learning track for Prolog one day!

I felt I cheated in May by doing Tcl, which didn’t seem anywhere near as mindshifting as Prolog.

Hi everyone!
I wanted to know how i could get all featured exercices for all passed month. like a list of them so i would work on them as the year is going?
thanks!
It would be really cool to have a list of ones not done (maybe greyed out in the area on the 12in23 page where is says x/45 done). It’s quite hard to spot the gaps without maintaining a list.
That’s a nice idea. I’ll take a look at it.
This is a great feature! But, it helped me notice there’s something up with my count:
Despite not completing all the exercises (yet), I’m seeing 45/45 complete.
They have been made aware in another thread
Should be fixed now
Since I’m probably not going to finish the challenge before the end of the year, I have a question - what happens to the challenge after the year is over? And will there be a “participation ribbon” of some sort?
I sort of thought the monthly badges would probably suffice for that, but as they’re also earnable in the future, a #12in23-participant badge seems good. Probably awarded if you earned at least one of the other 12in23 badges during the year. Thoughts?

I thought at first that having 12 languages with >=5 submissions in 2023 should satisfy this requirement, but then the extra (tough) challenges came along.
But… this will make my nice even columns of badges offset!
Hi! So, if I understand correctly: there is a “12in23 Participant” badge (for 5 exercises in any track) and there is a badge for finishing the featured exercises, but there will be no badge for just finishing the challenge (i.e. 12 different tracks, 5 exercises each, no matter if featured)? I just want to confirm, since after finishing the 12th language in December I didn’t get any new badges ;)
There has been some discussion about this in Discord. https://discord.com/channels/854117591135027261/1182368534806933565/1182598597146054787

We’re going to add both the participant badge (I don’t think this exists yet) and the “used any 12 languages in one year” one (which will probably be any 5 exercises in any 12 languages, although I might make it any 3 exercises)

Just thought of something. If I remember correctly, at the beginning of the year the monthly badges were Ultimate, and then, after an update, they became Rare. What about this: If a user participated in a month and solved 5 exercises then that user earns the Rare badge. But if this user solved the suggested exercises, then the badge’s rarity gets upgraded to Ultimate. I think this will be a good incentive for those who won’t be able to do the whole year’s worth of suggested exercises but still might be able to do some months completely.
