Yes, that is correct. It is a dynamic measure of the most recent problems. But the good news is that, along with only a few others, they are permanent awards. That is, once you've earned it, you keep it.

It looks at the most recent 5, 10, or 25 problems respectively. Currently there are 754 problems, so if you'd solved, say, 750 and 752 from 750-754 (the most recent 5 problems), you'd have 2/5 progress for High Five.

It is with great pleasure today that a new tag-based organisation system goes live. Starting in May 2020, it has taken nearly one year of hard work behind the scenes and we hope that you find it a welcomed addition to Project Euler. By default, tags are disabled for all members, but they can be enab...

This is the first I am hearing about this. How recently have you seen this behaviour? Is it the whole website that seems to struggle or just viewing the latest problem?

Good spot and thanks for letting me know. I've changed it to display a more appropriate message.

Thanks, Yoratoni. I've added "Game Maker Language" to the language list.

Thanks for reporting it. It should be fixed now.

Hi ! It would be nice to have GML in the list, i'm maybe the only one to use it 8-) , it's the Game Maker Language, here's the link https://docs2.yoyogames.com/source/_build/3_scripting/3_gml_overview/index.html (official) For a language to be added it needs to appear on this page: https://en.wikip...

What a fascinating looking language!

It has now been added to the list.

Great catch! Thanks for reporting. It should be fixed now, but keep in mind that the caches won't update immediately. I've manually re-cached #747 (the example you gave) to show the corrected version.

I am sorry to hear that some of you are going to miss that feature, but as I mentioned it was generating far too much data. I have increased the pinned problems limit to 25, which should be useful. Also, as a final gift I have uploaded a PDF for the entire current problem set: 1-751. https://project...

Please see my reply in this post:

Yes, a decision was made to remove that feature because the problem set has grown too large and it's only going to get larger. The text alone is just below 1MB in size and with images it is significantly larger. Pinning problems is a far better way to group together problems that you are interested ...

Thanks for reporting, ricoter. It should be fixed now.

Thank you for confirming.

I've just modified the scripts so that if you visit the fastest solvers table where you appear, your account is public, and you have not already been given the respective positional awards, then it should automatically award them to you. It won't say anything on the fastest solver table page, but if...

Yesterday I was in first ten to solve problem 750, but only got "On the Ball" without "Chart Topper" and "One in a Hundred". Your account was unlisted yesterday and those awards are earned for appearing in the tables at the time of solving. Unfortunately it cannot be e...

Sorry about that. It should now be fixed if you submit your answer again.

@euler: I assume the total number of solvers of at least one of the problems 1-100 is ~500-800k? Much higher! There are 1079461 unique solvers for problems 1-100. Interestingly, the number who have solved #1 is 1010733, so that means nearly 70000 of those unique solvers decided not to solve the fir...

I'm guessing English is not your first language, but the term "in-bred" is deeply offensive in the English language. I would suggest you edit your post and find a more appropriate term. Comparing the unique user solve count for the most recent problems with the first 100 is not a fair comp...
