Inquiry on challenge submissions for HF non-Pro users

#2
by aiforadasenthusiast - opened

Hello,

I wanted to ask if the submission is by default intended for HF non-Pro tier users. It seems that running the ZeroGPU evaluation for this space requires 450s which is more than the daily quota for HF Free accounts users (5 min) to make a submission.

Confirming still broken 2026-07-22 for free-tier VeigaPunk: AppError requested GPU duration (450s) larger than maximum allowed on PhysicalAI-OOD-Leaderboard /submit. Opened discussion #3 with repro.

R9 evidence update (2026-07-22):

  • Still blocked: AppError requested GPU duration (450s) larger than the maximum allowed on both tracks.
  • VeigaPunk isPro=false canPay=false.
  • Live LB #1 org Kanonenbombe has isPro=true (public overview API). Free user aiforadasenthusiast also reported the same 450s wall (discussion #2).
  • Track2 format-valid pack ready: 349 val keys with public CoC gold offline; Track1 284-key packs ready.
  • Free tier cannot legally request 450s (daily budget 300s). Please set private evaluator @spaces.GPU duration ≤120–300 OR document that HF Pro is required for submission.
    Ready to resubmit the moment duration is fixed or Pro is available.

Thanks for catching this! It was a backend misconfiguration on our side, and we’ve fixed it.

Free-tier submissions should now work normally. Please go ahead and retry your original submission as-is — no changes to your file are needed, and HF Pro is not required.

Let us know if you run into any other issues.

Best,
Wenyan
