competition reputation prize

[AgnesIO]

Why not just allow the account to rep people as many times as it wants, and make it's rep power five?

After all - how many people win 6 rep points or something in a comp lol

Because it's far easier for a features manager to add 30 rep than it is for me to go round someone's posts and doing it that way.

It's because General Management won't be able to keep track of how much rep the competitions department are rewarding per month.

What Mike and Phil said basically. Like I said a rep power 5 is good but it means having to find 5 additional posts along with the competition entry it would take a lot longer than brandon or yoshi quickly adding it. Also, it may look like pointless rep and if there is someone who's won 30 rep but only has Post Count: 4 (and trust me, it happens!) then we're in a bit of a problem.

You could have a thread in feedback, post here if you won a competition. You'll have a list of those who won anyways and those who post looking for the reputation they earn, give it to them. Those who don't, ignore and delete the post. The mass majority choose furniture anyways, so I'd be surprised if more than five people posted in the thread daily anyways. As for the reputation limit, you should just have a set reputation prize for each competition, then have a big competition every month where you give users a chance to win more reputation. Again - Just a suggestion.

Why don't you just pm people to let them know you've added the x amount of rep instead if this would be a problem?

I really like Richies idea though, and if it's possible i would love to see it.

[AgnesIO]

Of course.

I forgot even if you allow the account to rep the same person, youjn still can't rep the same post :p

That seems the most obvious answer. It'll be good to make whoever gives out the prizes accountable too - rather than talk to a person who acknowledges something than a system

Is there no Reputation Admin CP that allows comments, or is it just a basic "add x amount of rep/change x amount to x amount?"

I think it's just changing x to x, like if someone has 389 you change it to 399 and click save . I think that's how it is anyway, unless it's a rep task where they select a user and choose what to add/decrease but no, not comments as far as I'm aware!

That's correct, if someone had 200 rep and then won 20 you change it to 220 and click save.
