I did the same thing the first month I found out about these, so its a good thing theres like 20+! When you're in the S-N-L tab theres a link all the way to the right just below the my academy tab that says s-n-l leaderboard. If you don't want to watch the actual s-n-l's you can find the answers if you search google. ;) Then you can get 7k so you're assured to keep your spot on the leaderboard.

Too bad you have to sit thru those boring sitnlearns to get an entry. I did a couple when they first came out but found them to be really boring & time could be spent much better doing other things to improve upon one's game. Nice freeroll though.

I found it, no need to thank me....

;)

atlantafalcons0, I hope you can answer this question also. On the top left of everyone's avatar there is a area and if you put your mouse pointer on it, it tells you that this person has completed 3 challenges in a month. My question is this. Does 3 mean 3 challenges or does it mean 30 since you can do the same challenge 10 times. The reason I ask is I have completed more than 3 (not 30) the last several months and my avatar does not indicate so.

Do you have an answer.:)

The way I understand it, if you complete 3 academy challenges in one month - you get the badge.

Yea 3, but they all have to be in the same month.

I think you have to accept the challenge and complete it in the same month for it to count.

You can't have one that you started in march almost done and then finish it in september and have it count for sept.

I think.

I agree. I did complete 3 separate challenges in July and 3 more in August. They were the easy ones worth just 30 points each but I did it. I just have not seen a badge on my avatar. Thanks.

I guess they forgot the part where they specifically say the second Sunday of the month. Good luck to all those who are able to enter, I just registered myself, its usually pretty easy to make the first cash.

You only need to comeplete a 'sit and learn quiz' to be eligible for the freeroll.

The reason he was asking about the challenges is that if you complete 3 of them in the same month you get one of those badges around you screen name..

If you don't watch you won't pass !!!

The questions are not that easy...


Some of them are pretty easy, but some are a little tougher. Regardless, the answers can be easily found without watching the s-n-l. Google is your friend. :D
