The one thing everyone gets wrong
Points are per day — not per workout
Gym 8am
+
Cricket 6pm
=5 pts
Same day = one day. Log both anyway (they show in the feed and count on your profile) — but the score asks only one question: did you show up?
So: six days of one workout beats two days of three. Forge rewards showing up often, not doing more in one go.

Someone else's workout
Every workout needs a photo in the WhatsApp group. Gym, run, cricket, yoga — all of
it. No photo, it didn't happen. That is what the group chat is for.
Walks have one extra rule: 45 minutes minimum. They're the easiest thing to over-claim, so
the bar sits higher. 38 minutes doesn't make it — the line has to sit somewhere or it isn't a line.
That's the whole system, and it's why Forge works where a private tracker doesn't: the photo makes it
real to somebody other than you.

Two streaks, one pays
Yours
Days in a row you logged. Worth 0 points — it's pure pride, and that turns out to work better than points.
Your team's
If enough of you log the same day, it grows — and it does pay, up to 3 a day.

Streak grows
Just over half your team, rounded up. Not everyone — but you do need each other.
If your team misses it, you still keep your 5 points. You're never punished for someone else's rest day.

Day 4, 5, 20, 60…Stays at 3. This is the ceiling.
Without a ceiling the maths runs away: a 30-day team streak would pay +30 a day, and a group that got hot in week one could never be caught. Everyone else would stop trying — which is the opposite of what the streak is for.
Capped at 3, it stays a habit rather than a jackpot. A long streak is worth holding for its own sake, and a group having a bad month is always still in the game.
