In summary, the contributions were more than last week. Last week, we had just 1 bug report and this week we have 5. Although, out of the 5 that were received this week, only 2 were scored higher than 0.
@tdre's report on how freecodecamp rejects a clearly expected answer and does not credit the user for a correct response was scored zero because the project repo is not included in the bug-hunting whitelist. The moderator explained the reason in his review:
Although your contribution is well explained and goes into a good amount of detail, unfortunately, this contribution is not suitable for scoring due to the project not being listed on the Utopian Bug Hunting whitelist.
@blockchainstudio's report was scored zero for the same reason as tdre's while @anthonyadavisii's was because his bug report was a duplicate of an existing issue.
