Whey, more double xp. 😁.
Well it is the Holiday season, so they can take it easy at Zwift HQ as they Must be realising more new roads etc in New Year. 🤞
I am not seeing a rewind badge in my account? Will it be an extra credit badge? Is it a mission badge?
Article says: Rewind badge after completing all 4 stages.
There is no badge for it when you look in the section where the badges are.
The badge won’t show up until you earn it… which you can’t do until the final stage happens anyway.
And yes, it will show up under Missions 2023.
“Rides are 60 minutes long” – no they are all fixed distances.
Ah, correct. That was a holdover from last month. Fixed.
How do you contact ZRS? The results showing in Zwiftpower from the rewind event I participated in today are wonky. Zwiftpower says to reach the organizer.
ZRS is just group rides, not races. So I’m not sure what you’re expecting in terms of ZwiftPower results…
How can I unregister? I don’t like to have challenges opened when I know, for a reason, I will not complete it?
Stage 2 and 3 in the same week? I guess this isn’t correct?
The 3rd stage starts from December 18 and will last until December 25.
can you unregister? no dates when i signed up or i wouldn’t have bothered as usual no catch up rides & if your not available every week(shift worker) i cant complete
Will there be a naked up week? Completely forgot about stage 1.
Oops that should be a make up week.
No make up week.
so if i unlock the volcano climb do i get double xp for that unlock or just the mileage i rode during the route?
Double XP rides only double the distance-based XP you earn.
Will you continue to get double xp if you ride Stage 3 multiple times?
Yes.
So if you complete the event(Zwift Rewind Stage 3) and do it again… it will still be double xp per mile/km? I am worried about completing the event and joining again for normal xp.
Try it and find out! I suppose it’s possible you’ll only get it the first time, but I highly doubt Zwift set these events up that way.
Just rode it twice. 40xp pr. Km. both times 🙂
