BOINC Games
Year long challenge - https://www.boincgames.com/ - This challenge is still in BETA and so standings aren't really official yet.

Teams and individuals must sign up for the event themselves in order to participate. You can sign up at any time.

Should we update this for 2025?

Not many BOINC events yearly.

Are there any other F@H events we should consider, since that is where the bulk of the team is focused these days?
 
Well..I didn't make a 2024 one because we were down to basically 2 events outside of PG... Nobody seemed to care about the ones hosted on BOINCStats page. And with Formula-BOINC being ignored by most of the team, there just didn't seem to be a reason to keep making it. We also don't have much participation or interest shown for BOINCgames not to mention that it seems to be lingering in the "still in BETA" mantra. I don't know if that is because it is too similar to Formula-BOINC or if it is because many of us were getting burned out on having sprints/challenges every time we turned around.
