I wanted to bring to your attention an issue regarding the Phase 2 leaderboard. While it is currently possible to submit prediction results, the leaderboard for Phase 2 is not displaying correctly. I am curious to know what might be the cause of this problem.

@snehananavati Can you provide information about the other discussion posts?

Are we allowed to use external data sources - e.g. crawl additional data from amazon.com?

Hi, is “9th June, 00:00:00 UTC” the start of June 9 or the end of June 9?

Also the overview pages says competition ends on June 14. Which date is the right one?

As for the announcement of the winners, the tentative date is set for June 14th. Any updates or modifications to the deadline will be duly communicated to all participants.
