Write-ups
Dear @AwesomeChallengeParticipants,
Thank you all for efforts and active participation in the <Challenge Name>! You've all done amazing work.
The last step is to document your submission by completing a writeup. Your writeup must also include the Docker image(s) you've submitted to the <Evaluation Queue Names> queue(s). Only one writeup is needed per team.
This is a friendly reminder that in order to be considered for byline authorship and/or top-performer, your writeup must be submitted to the <Writeup Queue Name> queue by <deadline date and time>. No exceptions! For more information on how to submit your writeup, follow the tutorial here <provide link to Submission Tutorial - Writeup>. For any other questions, feel free to reply to this thread or create a new post.
Best,
@AwesomeChallengeOrganizers
