More Feature Requests...

I have a few problems I've shared that have had either zero solvers or just one or two. It would be nice to know if that's because people have attempted it and gotten it wrong, or if people just aren't even seeing it for one reason or another. Maybe if lots of people tried it and are getting it "wrong," that might indicate to me that there is an error (or poor wording) in my problem that I need to address (when the editing of problems becomes a live feature).

It would also be nice to be able to see, for each problem I've shared, things like

how many people solved it
how many people reshared it
how many people favorited it

I'm also hoping a better system for asking problem authors questions about their problem (clarification requests, etc.) is coming down the pike. Like maybe an author-moderated discussion area just for that purpose (separate from the one discussion the solution)?

Thanks!

Easy Math Editor

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

All of this data is coming—as soon as we can make it show up without sacrificing performance and clarity. And thank you so much for your excellent problems—we've been doing them around the office (staff are hidden from the recent solvers list :)).
