Applying for Island Creator

When I try to register for the Fortnite Island Creator & Engagement Program, it states that I do not meet the requirement even though I have used UEFN for the past 22 days (since release) to develop my map. Can this be manually reviewed so that I am able to publish?

I am experiencing the same and am honestly just about to give up. Epic have a technically excellent tool on their hands that will only get better with time, but I can’t use it to make maps to play with friends casually, so I can’t improve my skills to the point where I might have something worth publishing publicly. I’m certainly not about to spend all my time learning to use the editor well or code in Verse to build maps I can never share, even with friends. It’s very frustrating and disappointing to say the least.

Yes I’ve spent so many hours on my map ready to publish ASAP with the 21 day delay but the message has no info on how many days it has “detected” me developing for.

Yes, same issue here.

And please don’t manually review it for a single person. Make it work for everyone.

Same issue. I contacted support but got nothing but crickets so far.

Agreed. I have tons of hours in Creative and UEFN and my island is ready to publish. It is really dumb that you can’t publish in a private setting so you can get friends to play it. It’s a chicken or the egg situation. I can’t test my island to see if it works, but I can’t improve my skills cause I can’t test my island. Epic really shot themselves in the foot on this one. I just hope it is actually counting properly. I have used it every day since April 1st. So today is my 13th day.

That is not good…25 days…hmmmmm. Not a good sign. Epic?

I tried to apply earlier today and it wouldn’t let me do it, even though I’ve been working with UEFN for the day 22 days. But I tried 30 minutes ago and it finally worked.

Yes mine is working now! Now waiting for my tax profile to clear.

Mine is working now. My creator code: TheClickety :partying_face:

I finally did get mine working a few weeks later, and have published a map.
