Point Changes & Bug Fixes

17 years ago

We've decided to balance out the default point awards a little more fairly. This is the default and may be increased on a case-by-case basis.

  • Publish Storygame - 25 Points (was 10)
  • Accept Feature Idea - 5 Points (was 20)
  • Publish Article - 10 Points (was 50)

This makes a lot more sense to us -- the site has a lot of features right now and needs some strong content. So, let's start focusing on that.

Also a few bugs were fixed.

Bug points given on a case-by-case basis: if you finda typo, obviously that's nt worth a point. But if you uncover something and then give steps on how to reproduce it (Havvy and Nate have done this a few times), I may award some points for this.

I've noticed there's a new bug-finding trophy now. Nice work. Havvy's already got it. I'll go check JJJ's profile.

On a side note: How much does it cost to keep this site up?

Biggest cost by far is time.

Doesn't cost me anything to host because i'm piggy backing on my other site's server.

I reckon the article writing thing should be changed around, back to thirty maybe?
