Operator cannot win

What does the Rank vs prize explainer do?

Seeing the operator at the top of the board can look unfair, but the operator is excluded from prizes. This page separates the live rank from prize eligibility so you know exactly whose position matters for the banner.

How do I use it?

  1. Look at the Live board #1 column.
  2. Look at the Contest prize column.
  3. Find the top row that is not the operator.
  4. Check whether that row has 3 verified friends.

What is an example?

The operator's row shows 5 friends at the top. The next row has 3 verified friends. That second row is the one eligible to claim the banner this week.
