Daily Streaks
Show up every day. Streaks are the simplest, most reliable way to keep your points climbing.
- Practise any exam before midnight to maintain your streak.
- Missing one day resets your streak to 0 — there are no streak freezes (yet).
- +5 pts every day you maintain a streak.
- Streak milestones at 7 days (+50 pts) and 30 days (+200 pts).
- Your longest streak is permanently recorded on your profile.

H2H Duels & ELO
Head-to-Head duels pit you against another student in a fast, timed quiz. Your skill is tracked with an ELO rating — the same system used in chess.
How ELO works
- Starting ELO: 1000 per subject.
- Beating a higher-rated opponent gains you more ELO than beating a lower-rated one.
- K-factor: 40 — high variance early in your career; it stabilises as your matchCount grows.
- ELO is per-subject — your Math ELO is independent of your Science ELO.
- Challenges are only allowed if the opponent's platform rank is within ±10% of yours.
Matchmaking rules
- Both players must be Premium subscribers.
- The subject must have ≥100 questions flagged h2hReady: true.
- Each match is 10 questions, 20 seconds per question.
- Faster correct answers score higher (speed bonus).
- Demo match: one free demo match is available for non-premium users (demoH2HUsed flag).

Platform Rules
A short set of rules keeps MCQplex fair and safe for every student.
- One account per student. Duplicate accounts will be merged or removed.
- Do not share accounts — leaderboard positions are per-individual only.
- H2H challenges must be accepted within 24 hours or they expire.
- Appealing question errors: use the "Report" button on any question. Staff review within 48 hours.
- Abusive behaviour toward other students in any part of the app results in immediate suspension.
- Points awarded by the system are final. Manual adjustments require contacting support.
- Schools using the School Plan retain all student data ownership rights per our Privacy Policy.
