I'm running through these at the moment. Some challenges have really heavy queues (ie: Challenge 3 has an expected response time of 1 month at the moment. ~8000 challengers are participating out of an expected < 1000).

It's an interesting format.

I agree - I really like it and I'm learning a lot. However, i'm losing motivation due to the lengthy queue.

Task 6 currently has a two month wait. Given that you may have to submit multiple times to get feedback and fix mistakes, you're talking a significant part of a year to get a single task done.

I understand there's a massively unexpected surge of users, but I'd happily donate to help improve infrastructure (if donations were ever available)
