my long-time solitary 1 road has now become 8 on my profile.

That’s awesome, and now you’re on a roll. The early approvals seem to take a little extra time, but once you get rolling the approvals/decisions hit quick. The most perplexing thing is the timeline for our profile counts to update. None of us have figured out the system for counting the approvals. I could have 20 emails in one day saying my edits were published, but then my counts will go up by 7, then 11, and then 2 over the week. Either way, your profile will catch up and you’ll find a groove. Welcome to the TRAC TEAM!

If you’re on Telegram, I’d suggest joining in the TRAC chat. @MarcoDavoli keeps us up to date on the overall progress more frequently than posting on Connect … and the charts are in cool animated GIFs (extra bonus).

Tried Connect Private Message again @Rednewt74 , and it still says I’ve reached a limit (although I used my phone instead of computer this time).

Look out for another email shortly.

Edit: I see it was my fault as I forgot the 74 in your email address.

Thanks @JustJake I’ll just be patient.

No, I’m not on Telegram. Sorry, but it doesn’t work for me.

We are up to 19 people in TRAC-2024 tracking system.

Just a reminder: on or after Saturday, 2024-03-30 add your next update to cell C8.

You will use that cell for updates until 2024-04-06.

Post your new total, not the number of new roads. The system will do the math for you.

The delay in the attribution of the added roads in our profile is well known, @JustJake .

But in the last week I have seen that the update in more frequent, sometimes also twice per day, while in the past sometime it was once or twice per week. I hope they will continue at least to update the data every day.

@ErmesT I’m seeing roads added in about 2 days but I find it puzzling that the points are not added at the same time. Yet, even this is not very long although I’d expect it to happen immediately.

As you have more than 2700 edits approved @tony_b , you know already that the points for edits are attributed 24 hours after the approval.

Added roads are just another type of edits, with a longer attribution time.

The points are attributed simultaneously to all the contributors, to use less resources avoiding the continuous update of the database

Thanks for the information @ErmesT . No I did not know that. When I started on those 2700 Edits I wasn’t thinking about points, so I never knew if or when I was rewarded for them. Monitoring points was never a habit of mine until I started adding roads a week ago.
