2. Why We Offer Challenges in Octalysis Prime
The OP Design Challenges are a chance to practice your Octalysis Gamification Skills.
Watching videos is a good start, but applying your knowledge is part of the journey that Octalysis Experts
must take! This time we actually allow OP Members to help each other on their real life projects and create
a truly mutually supportive community we can trust and rely on.
Finally, you will earn upvotes for EXP, credibility, prestige, and a massive amount of valuable Chou Coins!
We are continuously striving to improve the quality of these challenges: Your feedback is welcome!

4. Background for This Challenge 1/2
We first started with the Elevator Pitch Challenge, where OP Members pitched their own projects
that they would like to get help from the community on.
All the submissions were amazing, and we plan to eventually let the community work on all the finalist
projects and more.
My Job Glasses was the first project we picked so everyone gets to practice their Octalysis skills while
helping other OP Members create an impact in society.
