Daily Goal Sudden Death Challenge

[Eskignax]

Let's get serious on the daily challenge !

Here the game, I challenge my friends with the Daily Goal Sudden Death Challenge.

At the end of day, all the players who meet the Daily Goal stay in the game. The others are kick out (but can still view the progress).

The challenge continue day by day until only one participant stay in the game or no participants succeed the daily goal.

At the end we can see the ranking of all players of the challenge. \o/

Some optional options and details:

• The creator of the game can choose between participants step goal or specific step goal
• If at the end all the day all participants succeed in their daily goal, the daily goal get automatically more difficult.
• People who failed the daily goal the same day can be ranked by % accomplished
• All challengers have to be 'in' since the first day
• Classement display
  • %of avancement of the day for the players still in game
  • day complete (score) for the players out

If you like the idea, vote for it !

Thank you 🙂

Have more fun goals and cartoon games to make it fun for us...a survival I don't see that will go the best because of other people in better shape will make the average person give up!

If it is done right. Like if you can pick who can join your game. So like
your friends on fitbit or a range of people who fit what you select. So if
your average steps are 7k a day you would select a range of 5 to 10 k
average steps a day. That way it would kept it a little far. And a person
that is only getting 5 to 10 isn't going to give up if competing with
people who are averaging 20 to 30k steps a day.

@tschaef87 royalties for this idea? lol I think you waived that ability by submitting your idea based on the feedback agreement you agreed to in order to post.

Despite, no royalties, I do wish for FitBit to get some new different games/challenges out there. The same 2/3 is getting boring.

The real problem is, how to you stop people from cheating to win at these games/challenges.

[biggermann]

Actually they are only cheating themselves, if not actually doing the
work.....

[TammyHintz]

They need to listen to me.....that is not what people want....they need games to earn points or cash to keep playing. ..or to earn  credits to go farther in the game....Luke in Facebook games.

So you want FitBit to pay you cash to walk?  Please get off my post.

SURVIVAL FOR LIFE!

@Welchhe was kidding guy... learn to take a joke as well as you take steroids

[Alex_P]

Need new challenges!  Love the survival idea!

[Tsun4mi7]

Fantastic idea! I like the idea of extra motivation with rewarding streaks (I'm currently counting it up manually but this is really to challenge myself, gamifying the idea adds a whole new level).

[Psienkow]

Sounds like a great feature...

[DerrickS]

This sounds like a fun Challenge. I especially like the idea of challenging people to to be consistent with their daily step goal.

Thanks for sharing your idea on the Feature Request Board.

Definately make this happen guys!!!!

Gamification works, studies show.

Also thought of this, and didn't see this one so I posted on it. But it's upsetting, 6 months later, and it's gone no where!! What the heck Fitbit?? Make you app amazing!! You should be miles ahead of competition not just 3 yards!!! COME ON!!!

[SunsetRunner]

The survival idea sounds super fun!!! 

[TammyHintz]

I guess something is better than nothing!

[MyNameIsAlex]

This is so cool!

[Lueck767]

Great idea. This is a game I would participate in for sure.

[grace.oneill]

Love this!

[CatInSF]

I also think it should have an upper limit .. so if someone does 200% or 300% of their goal on day one they are OUT.    I think some people choose low goals, despite a very high step count and others actually have REAL goals.      It would be great if your goal was based on your average step count of the previous week for a challenge like this.

[ShelbyT96]

My competitive friends would definitely enjoy that challenge!!

[Baltoscott]

Sorry I can't upvote the comments.  I like @CatInSF's amendment to the original idea of having each player's goal in this type of challenge based on that player's prior-week average step count.  

[HyperNinjaZX]

I would definitely use it!!

[LizFitbit]

Hi @Eskignax thanks for sharing this suggestion - it's obviously a popular one with the community! I don't have any updated on challenges at the moment but will let you know when I do. Thanks for sharing your idea!

[Lirpa1313]

I really love this idea!

[DaleBee]

Any chance of setting up a last man standing challenge. Lowest steps of each day is eliminated until there is only one remaining winner?
