That is a good summary, but it is a little bit more complex than what you have stated. But your comment is helpful because this is exactly the understanding that Goldbloom has and it is incorrect in an important way. The 23 entries that were submitted are for the public leaderboard set. The purpose of this set is so over the duration of the competition, competitors can see how they are performing relative to each oth…
Thanks for your reply and clarification. 1. So your stance is that Anthony, the CEO and Founder of Kaggle, is mistaken about the rules and execution of the 2 phase competition that his company is running, even after 8 days of his company communicating back and forth in email correspondence with you? 2.

In the case you do not make a final selection, the system selects the most recent submission.
The same UI is used for the two phase competition, including the same text that Anthony posted in his response to me, however the submissions work slightly differently as I mentioned.
> "As I have been saying over email repeatedly over the past 8 days, and yesterday on the phone with you and the Sorkin, there is no checkbox to check!"
I said this because I don't believe there should have been a checkbox on the screen. That is what I meant by saying there is no checkbox to check.
