A tie breaker question in Challenges

Why need a tie breaker? Because it's very disappointing when you score 5 and the game ends up in draw! Sometimes I feel SoloLearn should add tie breaker questions if in case challenge ends in tie. Similar to Penalty Shootout in Soccer, after 5 attempt if challenge ends up in tie there should be tie breaker questions untill one of them win. What do you think guys? Edit: There was something like this in past in SoloLearn, not sure why abandoned.

I'm not agree. It won't be good when a challenge is unendable! In case if we have two platinum level participaters, for example. This program is for leaning and training but not for winning challenges. It is not like the Olympic games!

This sounds interesting, so that means there was something in SoloLearn's history called a 'Sixth Question' for tie breaker I guess. I'm surprised why they have dropped that thing, possibly to introduce the new feature call 'Draw Games!' Thank You Julien Quentin for drawing attention to this thing. 👍

I say bring back the tie breaker! Why should only dinosaurs have had access to this phenomenon? Humans and hedgehogs of today need the opportunity for more wins! On second thoughts, if you introduce this in html, we might get the equivalent of epic Grand Slam tennis matches that last 5 hours!

Julia never think of it, I guess you're right actually, but it sometimes you know hurt when you're about to reach at 50th streak and things end upon with a draw.

In my opinion, tie breaker is not suitable. Imagine if there is a legend who scores 5 over 5, loses 5-6 to other person due to tie breaker , then he loses 28XP😭.

Sonic it's gonna be more than an epic grand slam man, cause lot of people won't even lose, and some can play for a whole day without scoring 4

👍😎🐍 Lets remember that this application is for fun and learn. Challages should be short and fun. (i think that) Fun is more important than 28Xp 🍉
