Achievements
Can I claim the NFT for an achievement even if I don’t fully complete it?
Yes, as long as you have made some progress (non-zero progress) on an achievement, you can claim its NFT at the end of the season.
Can I earn achievements in multiple knowledge areas for Oracle of Knowledge?
Yes, you can earn achievements in three areas of knowledge. However, each achievement requires accumulating 100 SP in a single knowledge area to claim its EXP and associated rewards.
Do achievements reset after the season ends?
Yes, achievements reset at the start of a new season. However, your NFTs earned from the previous season will remain as permanent proof of your progress.
How do I track my achievements?
You can track your progress on the Achievements Page under the "In Progress" tab. It displays all active achievements, their requirements, and your current progress.
What happens if I miss a day for achievements like Titan’s Vigil or Forge of Perseverance?
Missing a day will not reset your progress. However, you will not be able to claim the full 31 EXP for these achievements if you miss any days.
How does Oracle of Knowledge work?
The Oracle of Knowledge requires you to earn 100 Sahara Points in a specific knowledge category (e.g., Prompt Collection, Model Optimization, or Persona Emulation). You can claim rewards for partial progress within one knowledge category but at least one knowledge category must be fully completed to mint the NFT.
What is the difference between “In Progress” and “Closed” achievements?
In Progress Achievements: These are active achievements you are currently working on.
Closed Achievements: These are from past events that have ended. You can review these to track your participation and progress but cannot claim additional rewards.
What happens if I don't claim my rewards before the deadline?
If you don’t claim your rewards before the deadline, you will lose the opportunity to claim the corresponding EXP. Be sure to claim them in time!
Sign-In & Onboarding
Can I change my sign-in method?
Unfortunately, you cannot change your initial sign-in method after setting up your account. If you wish to use a different sign-in method, you will need to create a new account from scratch.
Is it safe to connect with my on-chain wallet? Will my funds be compromised if I use this method for sign-in?
Connecting your on-chain wallet for sign-in is safe. We do not have access to the contents of your wallet or any other sensitive information. Your funds and data remain under your control and are not compromised by the authentication process.
I have been whitelisted, but I cannot log in to the platform using my social account/email/phone. What should I do?
The wallet address is the only criterion for whitelisting you, so please use the whitelisted wallet address to log in to the platform.
Can I log in to my account on different devices?
Yes, you can use any device to access your account as long as you remember your login credentials, allowing you to participate in tasks and monitor your progress anytime, anywhere.
How can I check my digital wallet balance and withdraw funds?

Rules
How can I improve the quality of my data and minimize bans?
To improve data quality and avoid bans, focus on accuracy rather than speed, ensuring your work meets or exceeds the task’s quality standards. Carefully follow the provided guidelines, avoid any form of cheating, and double-check your submissions for errors before completing the task. Delivering consistent, thoughtful, and genuine work is essential to maintaining a strong standing on the platform.
Can I submit multiple datapoints for the same task?
Yes, you can submit multiple datapoints for the same task as long as you stay within the daily submission limits and maintain the required quality standards for each submission.
If I fail the pre-task exam, can I try again?
No, you cannot retake the pre-task exam. Each user has only one attempt to pass the exam for a task. If you fail, you will no longer have access to that task.
When will points be distributed?
Points will be distributed daily at 12:00AM (UTC+0)
When will new tasks be released?
New tasks will be updated every three days at 10:00 PM PST.
Is crafting jailbreaking prompts legal?
Crafting jailbreaking prompts on our platform is legal as we are doing this for ethical, educational, or research purposes. We support responsible exploration and testing of AI systems to improve their safety, robustness, and understanding. By participating in this effort, you are contributing to the advancement of AI safety and ethical research.
Why am I suspended in the middle of doing the task?
You were suspended because your current accuracy or maximum possible accuracy has fallen below the required threshold. This means it’s no longer possible for you to meet the task’s quality standards.
The system stops you early to prevent poor-quality annotations and ensure efficient task management. This helps maintain high data quality for everyone.
Why don’t I have access to certain tasks?
Some premium tasks are exclusive to Demigod-tier users who hold the specific NFT that validates their status. If you don’t have access, it means you haven’t yet achieved the Demigod tier or obtained the required NFT.
To unlock access to these tasks, rank up this season to reach the Demigod tier and earn the necessary NFT. Once you have it, you’ll gain access to those premium tasks in the next season.
