As the challenges progress you may be wondering; how do I earn points, how does user A have more points than me after one day, and I want all the points, how do I get them? Rest easy friends, we are here to describe the scoring system for the NW3C CTF. * Each challenge is worth a minimum of two (2) points * Every challenge will have at least on flag that needs to be recovered; every flag recovered is worth a minimum of two (2) points * Some challenges will have multiple flags that need recovered; each flag in the challenge is worth a minimum of two (2) points * Some challenges are considered "compound" and require several steps to solve a single flag; these flags will have a higher point value * Accumulated points will be reset at the end of the current competition * Please submit questions concerning scoring to ctf@nw3c.org
