Number of problems and levels

Post by sivakd »

Hi, I joined when there were already 250 problems. What happens after reaching 300 problems? Would you increase the level to 7 or have only 6 levels but increase the number of problems in each level?

Previously, a new level would be introduced, with a picture of a geometric object with higher degree of symmetry than that of the previous highest level. However, the level 6 icon is a sphere, so that poses some issues :D

No, it does not pose any issues.
A sphere was deliberately chosen.

When we solve 300 we will be enlightened and recognize the objects in a higher plane of existence? :)
To the rest it will appear as {} the empty set.
That is my current fantasy, not a proposal!

Well, my proposal is to show a 3-D-projection of a simplex for level 7, then a projection of a 24-cell, then of a 120-cell and after that, one of a 600 cell.
