Hi,

I enrolled in the Arcade Facilitator Game using the same email ID that I used for the Arcade Game this year. I am using the same email ID for both the Arcade Facilitator Game and the Arcade Game. Is that okay, or are there any disadvantages?

[Abhishek213]

It's ok when uhave less or no badges (skill badges)

[murilomura]

I registered with Arcade Facilitator, but the points were not credited after completing the lab.
Could this be because I registered with the same email address that I already use on Arcade Games?
Would this only work for new accounts?

[yashgoyal365]

No issues in the mail id. You can use any mail id.
The points will only be shown in Insider mails please wait for next month's Insider mail or the progress report of GCAF program it has the count of badges you have completed during GCAF program.

[Geetha123]

after some labs done It shows try after 2 hours so that i have to wait until that time  .Is there any alternative for that ?

How can i see my bonus points and arcade points

[yashgoyal365]

There is a lab limit is implemented by team i.e. 15 labs/24 hours and after you exhausted this limit you can perform a new lab after every 2 hours and there is no alternative for this.

If you have registered for GCAF program then you will soon getting the progress report of the program only. Count of Arcade points will be shared in monthly Insider mails if you have subscribed to Arcade.

[murilomura]

Hi, I have a question.
I completed the "Customer Experience with Google AI Architecture" lab last year and now I can't retake it.
How can I get the 18 Free Badges for Facilitator Milestone 4 labs that are described in the Syllabus FAQ (Advanced: Take your Google Cloud Skills to the Next Level)?

[yashgoyal365]

You have to do 16 Lab-Free courses to reach to Ultimate milestone.

Hello, while filling the form for arcade faciliator program I used a@a.com but I already had badges on this account so I created a new account b@b.com and filled the public url of that account in my google form.

1) a@a.com for registration in google form(Arcade Facilitator Program)

2) filled Profile url of b@b.com

Now, I got an email saying I have to register at google arcade program to be eligible for swags but it says "I must use the same email address to complete the Arcade games and skill badges on Google Cloud Skills Boost with which I subscribed." which is not the case for me.

[yashgoyal365]

Your query is quite confusing so I suggest to do labs from both the mail ids. On any one mail you will get the Progress mail of GCAF program so you will get to know which id is registered in GCAF and it's progress is tracked or not.

[Geetha123]

When will i get swags ?? I completed miltestone 1 recently

[RAOKS]

Prize counter for this season (Jan to Jun 25 ) will open in Last week of June/first week of July. Please note by completing milestone 1 , you have 16 points (14+2 bonus points), if you have completed special game , you  have 17 points(15+2=17 points)  points ,you are not eligible to claim any swags. 

Please see the recent post by Yogali about The Skills Boost Arcade 2025 Tiers 

You need minimum 20 points to claim Arcade Novice swags.

Please complete  some more skill badges (two skill badges = 1 Point) depending on present score , Always suggest to complete 1 extra point than milestone requirements to avoid last minute problems. (if are planning to stop at milestone 1 )

OR 

 you can continue and aim for more points and claim swags of next tiers as per post by yugali.

Keep learning. All the best.

How can I see my points ??

[yashgoyal365]

Wait for Arcade Insider mail it contains total count of Arcade points till the last date of previous month.
2nd way, You can ask from Qwiklabs support for the Arcade points count.
3rd way, You can calculate them manually:
1 Arcade Level/Trivia Badge = 1 Point
1 Special Edition Badge = 2 points
2 Skill Badges = 1 Point.
