How the monthly daily hack race works
The monthly board counts only the daily hack XP a player earns within the calendar month, and it resets to zero on the 1st. That makes it the fairest way to compete: a player who joined this week is on level terms with a veteran, because everyone starts September from nothing. XP comes from solving each day's hack, plus a first-blood bonus for being the first solver of a given day.
Who is winning September 2026?
As of Sep 22, 2026, M2F14M3 leads September with 280 XP, followed by Malekith (260 XP) and Hodanalo (220 XP). With the board resetting on the 1st, positions move fast - a few daily solves and a first blood can change the top three within days.
How to win the month
Solve every day. Because the daily hack takes only a few minutes and the month resets the field, the winner of September is almost always the player with the best attendance, not the most raw skill. Solve early to chase first bloods, do not skip days, and check the all-time board to see how the month's leaders stack up over the long run.
