Hi @jitters,

As noted in [this thread](https://community.drivendata.org/t/forecast-stage-clarification/9574), you will be able to update your model between stages in the competition.

There will be requirements on what are allowable changes to your model for the explainability bonus track (to be published at a later date), but those requirements will be based on the version of your model for the Overall evaluation and not the version you submit to the Hindcast Stage.
