      It's not clear that you will need an account to see the problems. Logged in with my account and it's exactly the same page. It's not Dec 1st everywhere yet, so they might open up for everyone when they do open them up.

    This also has a paid account and a business account.

      And if you have a paid account, you get extra time to complete the challenge!

      Somehow, SadServers seems to have entirely missed the concept of a "puzzle".

Checking out how the platform works was two clicks away: home -> give me a server.

I don't know of any other SaaS which gives you a VM with one click without any registration but we do it.

In any case thanks for the feedback, I've put a button on this /advent page for clarity, cheers

    I see: a page offering something interesting but vague.

    If you tell me more, I might sign up. If I have to create an account first, I'm walking away.

    > how do you want it to work?

    I would like to see and try to solve the scenarios for myself, not to get meaningless internet points. If you look at their front page, you can do that right now. So why do I have to create an account to even see these special advent scenarios?

    > do you even sysadmin?

    Yes.

    I think the point is "ok, account is free, then what?"

    At 5$/m I might give the paid subscription a try.
