"Need" no You know the whole need vs want thing.

Do what's best for you! We love sprinting with you! But certainly don't want you going into debt to do it.

The rules don't specify as to rewards but I hope everyone who finishes gets something. And I (personally, not part of the official contest) am giving a merit badge to everyone still in the sprinting running who hits 50k/ wins nano.

Right now you have these stats:

I think people need 4 points a day starting Nov 5 (or 6?) to finish/ not drop out of sprinting. So say 4x25 for easier math That's 100 points. You already have over that. If I understand things correctly, you have done enough sprints to not drop out, even if you don't log more sprints here. But Storm Machine or Brandiwyn🎶 can confirm or deny.

PS I didn't see your word count listed for the 1400 official sprint. If it's easier to share it here I can input it for you next time I'm at the computer. I am having a weird mistake making day though so no guarantees that what I put in is what you ask for... but I will try!
