Wow, that is an awesome project! I envy you students for having such unusual OSM activities :) And thanks to you, now I know about the backrest=* tag. Everyone here could benefit from it.

Can you write a blog post about the PoliMappers' Adventures? Maybe it could get published on blog.osm.org — CWG would decide that.

Also, I'd format the wiki page to have the current quest in big letters at the top, maybe with a picture. That way people returning to it won't have to scroll down to find the next quest. You don't need any software for this adventure.

The OSM Streak project is a bit different: it is automatic, and it doesn't make you learn much. The goal was to have a five-minute task for a day, so you don't have to plan your mapping. Just start an editor, click around for a minute, upload. Otherwise you'd get tired after a month or two.

The source code is published on github: https://github.com/Zverik/osmstreak

Incidentally, that's what I envisioned, as well as did Polimappers [1]. Great minds think alike - all in a short period ;) But unlike me you actually delivered, with software to support it.

I planned to have 30 or more challenges in some succession, not limited to mapping, but also showing the OSM ecosystem (like mapper communication, notes/change inspection/QA). So basically creating a competent mapper with "learning by doing".

Is the source available somewhere?

    Hi,

    I am Ilya and I have been uploading changesets 15 days in a row. Not
    because I'm so into it or somebody makes me: I've made a tool that
    reminds me to do it. In a year I expect my HDYC activity chart to be
    completely filled. And you can have the same too.

    Introducing OSM Streak: a website that gives you points for
    submitting changesets each day:

    http://streak.osmz.ru/

    You get 1 point for the first changeset, and then you get more: for
    example, I will receive 4 points for my next changeset tomorrow. And
    that is not all: it gives you a random task each day, so you don't
    stare at the map trying to come up with an idea. For completing a
    task, you get an extra point. And when you map many days in a row,
    you gain levels, which open more tasks.

    Forgetting to visit a website is expectable, so OSM Streak is also a
    Telegram bot (find the link on the "Connect" page). With the bot,
    you can forget about the website: it accepts changesets and sends
    you tasks every day. Alternatively, you can subscribe to e-mail
    notifications, which will be sent on 1:00 UTC.

    All the tasks and the website and the bot can (and should!) be
    translated into your language. We have English and Russian, and I
    would be very grateful for more translations:

    Have a truly mappy new year,
    Ilya
