Check Out Our Challenges

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008, filed in HowTo, PrepChamps News, What's New

We recently rolled out a new feature on our website that we call Challenges. Building on the competitive nature of sports, athletes and fans, Challenges allow users to use their pictures/videos and go head-to-head with their friends’ media. Participants can choose different categories to compete with their friends in, such as:

Best Game Face
Most Athletic
Best Highlight Reel
Best Soccer Video
And more–feel free to suggest others and we’ll add them

Each Challenge lasts for a week and is open to voting by all PrepChamps members. At the end of the week, the player with the most votes on his/her video or picture wins.

There are three ways to start a challenge:

Starting a Challenge from your dashboard

Log in to PrepChamps and click the “Start a Challenge” button on the right side under “My Tools.”

You’ll be able to select your media and then choose which friend you’d like to challenge and in what category. When you click the “Send This Challenge” button, the Challenge will be sent to your friend, who can then accept or reject it.

Starting a Challenge from the Challenges page

You’ll be taken the the Challenges page, where you can see existing challenges and create your own by clicking “Start Your Own Challenge” button.

You’ll be able to select your media and then choose which friend you’d like to challenge and in what category. When you click the “Send This Challenge” button, the Challenge will be sent to your friend, who can then accept or reject it.

Starting a Challenge from Someone Else’s Profile

If you’re viewing another person’s profile (doesn’t have to be your friend), you can challenge them directly. Click the “Challenge” button under the person’s “Profile Menu.”

You’ll be able to select your media and then choose which friend you’d like to challenge and in what category. When you click the “Send This Challenge” button, the Challenge will be sent to your friend, who can then accept or reject it.

We hope you like this new feature, and, as always, let us know what you think or if you have any questions/suggestions.
