Today begins our first-ever month-long Solutions Challenge! All throughout November, you can earn points that will enter you to win some sweet Meraki swag simply for marking and sharing solutions.
Solutions are the bread and butter of our Technical Forums. When a post is marked as solved, it’s easier and quicker to find the answer you’re looking for. And when you’re the one to answer a question, having your response marked as the Accepted Solution adds to your expertise and status here in the Meraki Community. It’s a win-win all around!
How it works
You don’t need to opt-in to participate in this contest. Simply take one of the following points-earning actions, and we’ll do the rest:
- Mark a reply to your question or topic as the “Accepted Solution” - 5 points
- Write an answer that gets marked as a solution - 10 points
If you aren’t sure how to mark a reply to your post as the accepted solution, fear not! We have instructions for you here.
There are 3 tiers that you can reach based on the number of points you amass. Within each tier, at the end of the month, we’ll randomly select winners to receive swag as outlined below:
- Tier 1 requires 5 points and will have 50 randomly selected winners who will receive a Cisco Meraki beanie.
- Tier 2 requires 20 points and will have 10 randomly selected winners who will receive a Cisco Meraki beanie and Kopi Mug.
- Tier 3 requires 50 points and will have 5 randomly selected winners who will receive a Cisco Meraki beanie, Kopi Mug, and a North Face Apex duffel bag.
- And everyone who earns enough points to achieve any tier will be entered to win the GRAND PRIZE of an MX85 with a 5-year license.
Reaching Tier 1 gets you one entry, Tier 2 doubles your entries and… (guess what!?) Tier 3 triples your entries to win!
How will I know how I’m doing?
To keep you all up-to-date on your progress, every Monday (starting next week) I’ll post a list of everyone who has reached Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3.
When are the winners chosen?
On November 30th at 11:59pm ET, the challenge will end. We will then randomly select winners for each tier (50 for Tier 1, 10 for Tier 2, and 5 for Tier 3) and we’ll also draw the lucky winner of the ✨GRAND PRIZE ✨.
We’ll announce each of the winners here, so be sure to stay tuned!
More details:
- Promotion period: Monday, November 4th, 2024 at 11am ET through Saturday, November 30th, 2024 at 11:59pm ET
- Up to three possible entries per community member: Each time you progress a tier, your entry remains in the tier below as well (meaning more chances to win stuff!). If you are randomly selected to win in two or three separate tiers, you’ll receive only the prize from the highest level tier. If you are selected to receive the Grand Prize, this will be in addition to any tier-level prizes.
