Well firstly I'll leave a reminder that it's Monday for Nick; and Phil; to post the Weekly Posting Stats.
Secondly (again mostly Phil; and Nick; ), i'll give you's a list of stuff you still need to do;
1) Fix the categories for Awards
2) Rework the top prize and possibly reward the top 5 people for Weekly Posting Stats
3) Organise Arcade tournaments
4) Reoganise the arcade categories
5) Were you going to implement the lottery/raffle for tokens? you never gave a conclusive answer in the other thread
Thirdly, more aimed at Wispur; I suppose, is there any chance of you re-implementing the Achievements system?
Obviously this time it would be done properly, I've had a look at the plugin and it looks so simple to implement most stuff and I still can't understand how it failed (maybe lack of effort put in, as well as leaving awards there when it was live? idk).
Also on the topic of arcade, would you mind adding 1 game per week?
Atomic Puzzle (http://www.lexet.net/games/game_atomicpuzzleAS3v2DOT.tar) for this week ;)

No point in even bothering with the achievements system again. It failed and that was partly down to the system we used.
Yes you can have a game per week. It can't always be your choice though so I will come up with a way of making it fair.

People can feel free to ask me the game and I'll try to find it.
atm I'm just taking a random game from different categories (and making sure it's fine to play)
edit; also the system looked fine? the failure looked down to the lack of effort put into it, the fact another system was running adjacent to it as well.

It was entirely due to effort and the fact that the emphasis was put onto the awards bit and not the achievements which meant everything was manual and tedious.
Achievements system works, just requires proper thought. Worked in hxss for Drew, worked at Christmas and Halloween.

I'm working on an achievements system at the moment. When I've finished it, I'll present it fully in a thread in here because I do think it'd be more beneficial than an awards system.
I would say the attempt (and hey at least there was an attempt, it is a big project) failed because:
- it was set to be retroactive so everyone's achieved everything. rush of people claiming them at beginning then it dies.
- tokens prizes. prizes needed to be better (see below). no incentive.
- easy/medium/hard. this was main thrust of the idea that there'd be different categories and levels and completing level would give bigger prize (credits).
- tasks were fairly official. could branch out to more fun ideas that involved teamwork or community spirit.
- admin. tasks were not evenly distributed to member/staff participation. this has been sorted out in new challenge system as most challenges require a screenie.
- no enthusiasm. introduced then nothing got done to it for months on end then dropped. ofc it was gonna fail.

Agreed, awards are so much better.
Leave it as it is.
Achievements were always intended as a side project ad wouldn't interact with awards whatsoever aside from perhaps getting an award for completing a particular set. That was one of its pitfalls as it just became too convoluted and people didn't know whether they were comin or goin or which system was being used.

you brought a manifestation of the intended version in for staff members and offered the incentive of a christmas tree icon for those that participated in the christmas themed ones. don't claim to be against an idea if you're going to support it in the same breath and sing its praises when it works as intended. you are the one who mismanaged achievements and completely altered the vision (based on constraints of a forum plugin admittedly, although a plugin isn't even necessary!) and ruined the public perception of the system.

Yes but that was on a much smaller scale. I'm not bringing the old system back and I'm not going to try and create a new one either.
mike has said he is working on the system himself. don't shoot down an idea that you support when it works if somebody else is willing to pick up your slack and do the legwork needed to make it work on a larger scale.

The system/plugin worked fine, just the staff failed to implement it properly and maintain it.
The sole reason it failed was the person who was tasked with dealing with it.

Forum would be the main area for it, then obviously the rest would be manually done which wouldn't be hard to implement (awards are manual, but they manage to be (for the most part) fine?).

Awards are automated to an extent. The manual part requires someone to confirm the award which is Matthews job.
Unless Sho or Laura want to take it on then it isn't going to happen. The closest thing you're going to see to an achievements system is the challenges scheme which I will run during seasonal or large events.

The person manually requests the reward, and the admin manually confirms the award. There is no automation :P
So it's essentially a case of you tried it before and couldn't be bothered putting effort in (so it ultimately failed) and you still can't be bothered.

I suppose it isn't, but it feels somewhat automated and much simpler for some reason.
It's nothing to do with not being bothered because the fact I even bothered to set it all up in the first place proves you wrong. I've told you the reason that it's not coming back. Whether you choose to accept that reason is entirely down to you, but it isn't changing the fact that achievements aren't coming back.

Not too many. I think it's partly because there was so much going on and a lack of advertisement from me.

oh my god what IS THIS THIS LOOKS LIKE THE BEST/WORST IDEA EVER
achievements system: I didn't like the old one whatsoever, from an admin side it was a nightmare, and could only be automated from the forum, whereas we want people to be involved in all departments - like entering x number of comps, creating graphics, doing wiki edits, attending x number of events. From what I could see too, not a huge percentage of people were actually entering said achievements, a lot of people (like me) couldn't really be bothered to fill out the thread for a few tokens really.
If there's a way it can *literally* all work automatically (which im about 99.9999999% sure isn't possible) then fine & dandy IMO, no skin off our backs, but someone's got to come up with all that admin and spend the time implementing it and we've all got other things that are more important to focus on right now than putting a hell of a lot of effort into reviving a dead

obviously you can't automate it with in client stuff (well, theoretically speaking you could but it would be way too awkward to implement).
no system will work fully automatically.
So basically "we'd like to have achievements that reward you for posting, attending events, posting in comps, gfx, etc but we can't be bothered doing the admin side of it to reward you for that stuff, so instead we'll just give you nothing"
and inseriousity. said, challenges were achievements basically..

There are 11 managers, 4 AGMs and participants. There is absolutely no reason why the big-project achievements system cannot be broken down into 'small scale' chunks for each person thereby rendering the 'lots of admin' excuse useless. Ultimately, the system provided was flawed but that does not mean the concept itself is redundant. You would just improve the system and members would've been patient with that process (they seemed to acknowledge it was a big project and brand new idea. It was bound to have teething troubles) but no not at Habbox. At Habbox, it was left to die then removed at the first opportunity.
That's why I'm going to continue working on it. It'd be a bonus if it was reimplemented again but at the very least, it would show you just how easy you give up on projects that don't necessarily have to die.

Because instead of having a "request achievement" thing that gives you a certain prize or that you submit and someone else considers it you literally have a list of:
Thing you can enter • Weekly/monthly • Department • Prize
Thing you can enter • Weekly/monthly • Department • Prize
With links of course, it's basically just compiling everything a member can enter at Habbox that ALREADY EXISTS, not anything on *top* of said competitions.

So it's getting rid of anything an achievement system would offer and just a list of what's already here.
So it still lacks loads of achievements that were on achievements system/could be on it.

I'm not the one who said it was anything like an achievements system! I've already said why I don't think achievements should be brought back. The idea of the list is sort of like an FAQ, if you're interested in "x", heres "a, b and c that might interest you"

You think it shouldn't be brought back because it requires admins to do work and isn't 100% automatic. When realistically no system is ever going to be fully automatic (awards and everything in your FAQ included).

as the prize varies depending who's won it, consecutive wins etc it's incorrect, for example this is my third week winning it I believe? so I get 100 rep + 1 month VIP, not 1 week/250 toks.

Phil; remove "This week, all members that make 100 posts in one week can choose to receive either 1 week of VIP or 250 Tokens to spend in the forum shop along with the Forum Award." and put something better there.
as the prize varies depending who's won it, consecutive wins etc it's incorrect, for example this is my third week winning it I believe? so I get 100 rep + 1 month VIP, not 1 week/250 toks.

wait it was Nick; not Phil;
also, what happens on the 4th week? do they continue to get 100 rep/1 month VIP, or go back to #1?
Nick seems to have copied the automatically (I say automatically, I manually triggered it) generated thread in the admin area which is why the issue with the 'this week' is there.

Yeah they done the same thing last week, so I assumed it was the script that created it.
so need to come up with a better phrase :P

Nah, last week's was done by phil.
If forum management want to change the template they just need to edit this thread:

Yeah, I figured the script that generates the list also generated the template so they could just copy/paste it over, but obviously changing the prizes screwed that up.

Well, I did it after the prizes changed, it's just the phrasing used in the first time after (When no one had 100).

yeah should probably set a generic one so they can continue to copy + paste
just like see here for the prizes then they can tell them their actual prize in the PM, as it seems too difficult to change it weekly judging by past 2 weeks :P

If it had a generic one I could just set it to post straight into Announcements - although I'd have to make it send PMs to forum management so they don't forget about prizes.

i'll give you 50c to give me your perms
Well firstly I'll leave a reminder that it's Monday for Nick; and Phil; to post the Weekly Posting Stats.
Secondly (again mostly Phil; and Nick; ), i'll give you's a list of stuff you still need to do;
1) Fix the categories for Awards
2) Rework the top prize and possibly reward the top 5 people for Weekly Posting Stats
3) Organise Arcade tournaments
4) Reoganise the arcade categories
5) Were you going to implement the lottery/raffle for tokens? you never gave a conclusive answer in the other thread
Okay I can reply to your demands now.
1. *+*Maybe*+* this weekend. When I do this I want to do it properly, make new categories, order all the awards appropriately such as have them in correct order or in order by date/season.
2. Haven't spoken to Nick about this yet.
3. Concentrating on something else at the moment but we are both keen on doing them.
4. I'll have a look hopefully tomorrow.
5. Maybe.
i have found that without other trivial pressures people can be much more productive with their ideas. it might take months, but at least somebody is working on something.
Glad SOMEBODY in Feedback understands this.
Entirely unrelated but I feel a whole new thread isn't needed, but is there going to be another Habbox Election (http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=641227) this year?
Hmm, looks interesting, could be fun and a nightmare :P

Don't do it, thanks. :P
In response to the Achievements System, I will now be working on it.

Why not, if it makes it actually posted on time then all you/nick need to do is the follow up PMs.

It is being posted on time.

First week in what 4 weeks it's been posted within the correct 24 hour time frame? :P
I'd argue otherwise.
Why no to automatic though? I don't see any downfalls as you'd both be notified via PM to deal with it then tell the other one you've done it (communication is key, btw).
I just don't like things being automated

Why? lol
Seems like one of the weirdest things ever, if you's can't manually keep up with it and there's possibility of having it done automatically at a set time (so it won't vary on different days etc) surely you'd prefer that, then you and Nick can agree to who then does the PMs.
Seems like such a simple thing to agree with...
Scott believe it or not, just because you agree with something, doesn't mean everyone else does. It's just personal preference.

Yes

I'm not saying everyone must agree with it, I'm just finding it hard to see why people would disagree with an automated system when you've proven for 3 consecutive weeks you can't do it properly.
hence why I asked and I expected a better reply than 'i don't like automated stuff'.
Yes
Good stuff Shonly; being useful as always.

It's been posted on the Monday for the past two weeks, it was a few days late the week I went back to college and maybe the week before too. It's not a massive problem.

So when your college work picks up we should expect it be delayed too? :P

Nope, literally not what I was trying to say. The week I came back after Christmas it was essentially re-moving in, getting settled into new modules and stuff. It was on time all last year when college was busy except maybe the odd week here and there.
