There are some things that are informative but aren't really worth 50 points or are to short.  Why not add a subsection to the articles section and allow people to make small things that aren't articles but still good information.  Small basic scripts could be considered tidbits.

Funny you bring this up.

Earlier today, chocobot and I were discussing Points in detail, and this exactly topic (tiny articles) came up. Basically, what we're oging to do is reevaluate all exp point awards using "1 pt to play through a storygame" as the base unit of measure.

what do you mean, 1 pt to play thru a storygame, like i have to pay 1pt to play a game? anyways, i really agree with this, like there is a three paragraph thing on restrictions, when i have already doen this with the editor articles, there is that links and faq of the site, adn the faq is a copya nd paste of the old faq...

The EXP Award for playing thru a storygame is 1 point.  So, when figuring out other point awards, we should consider how much they are "worth" using "play thru a storygame" as a guideline.

For example, creating a storygame seems like it's more effort  than playing through 10 of em. Also, suggesting an idea on the FWW seems much less effort than playing 20 storygames. You get the idea?

ahhh i see, alright but what about this, some games are much much longer (i dont have to name em do i?) than others but you get the same point as the long ones, points should ALSO be based on the length of the game, eg. a length of 1 is 1 pt, a length of 2 is 2 points BUT once you get past 6, you should give out more points because it is quite an effort!

Well, since the idea is orgionally on articles, what about a DELETE for unsubmitted ones.  I have 2 copies for every article I have...

yeah thats fricken annoying to not be able to delete.

Well, bump I quess.  I'd really like the article page to be inproved.

amen.
