When is Deadline to Team up?

Meta CRAG - MM Challenge 2025
#1

I have two questions about teaming up:

  1. When is the deadline to team up? (In the “timeline” section of website it says May 28th, and in the “participation and submission” section it says May 21st).
  2. Can participants team up if their combined phase 2 submissions exceed 6? (The submission limit for phase 2 is “each team can make 6 total submissions across all three tracks”. If participant A has 6 phase 2 subs and participant B has 6 phase 2 subs, can they still team up? because after teaming up their team will have 12 phase 2 subs).

Hi Chris,

Sorry for the delayed response. My understanding is that the team was awaiting an official statement from Meta before publicly responding. However, in the absence of such confirmation, here’s the official recommendation from AIcrowd to Meta, which I feel fairly confident about:

  1. Deadline to Team Up:

There appears to have been a discrepancy in the announced dates. Given this confusion, I confirm that we will enforce the later date. Therefore, May 28th should be the official deadline for team mergers.

  1. Clarification on Submission Limits After Team Mergers:

The rules could benefit from clearer language regarding submission limits after teams merge. My understanding is that the intention was to continue to have a limit of 6 submissions per week during Phase 2 as well, consistent with the overall submission rules. After merging, teams will maintain this limit of 6 submissions per week.

However, during the week in which the team merger occurs, if the combined submissions of both teams exceed the weekly limit (6), the newly merged team will not be allowed any additional submissions for that week - until the submission quota resets in a week, like with any other team.
