Late last Thursday we noticed a huge surge in visits to our Campus Challenge page.

We certainly didn't expect what happened next...

Looking at Google Analytics, this corresponded to a surge in referrals from Facebook; presumably someone was sharing the Challenge on their university page. I grabbed a quick screenshot, pinged the team on HipChat, and then went to bed, as it was already the early hours of Friday morning in the UK.

By morning, it was clear who'd been behind it:

We were so impressed they'd jumped up into third in a single night, we tweeted about it...

Woah...a massive push by Universidad Nacional de Colombia overnight has moved them up to 3rd in the #CampusChallenge https://t.co/dZQTI9qYlz

...but they weren't stopping there! By the end of Saturday they were up in first place, having racked up an amazing 15,000 ducks in two days!

Congratulations to the Universidad Nacional de Colombia who've stormed into a big lead with this effort. Can anyone catch them? There are just over two weeks left to find out!
