marathon, Nurro, Eyewire, citizen science, June, Daniela Gamba

Feel like lazing on a hot Wednesday afternoon? Well, we’ve got you covered, except for the lazing part: hunker down with your AC or fans (it’s good for your computer, not just for you) and get tracing, tracing, tracing! A marathon awaits.

Starting at 2 PM EDT on 6/23 you’ll have 24 hours to complete one or more cells.

Bonuses:

  • 3,500 bonus points per 25 cubes
  • One live cell will be designated the “marathon cell,” with a 3x points multiplier!
  • SC bonuses are doubled on all cells.
  • Every 3 SCs counts for 1 cube toward naming eligibility & per-cell completion bonus.
  • 50 cubes = 5,000 points per completed cell, plus rights to vote on a new name for the marathon cell
  • 200 cubes = 10,000 points per completed cell, plus rights to nominate a new name for the marathon cell

Good luck! For science!
