SOTM Feedback!

[lawrawrrr]

Heya

Although I did speak to people about the suggestions before I sorted anything out, I'd love some feedback on the new SOTM! It's supposed to be a bit different so you can all sort of get something from it!

But yes please let me know what you think

Thanks

check it out hereeeee

1 point - 100 tokens
2 points - 1 credit
3 points - 75 rep
4 points - 5 credits
5 points - Month of VIP
10 points - Month of HC
15 points - Gold bar

The credits are the only ones I have to worry about affording - look at all the winners from last year here, there's only 19 that got the equivalent of 2 points above so that's potentially only 40c!

Most SOTM will get 1 point when they win, it's only when they win it multiple months in a row or do something really special/worth it when they get more points I'm hoping most winners will save up to win the bigger prizes but yeah


Oh plus the GB per month for the departments which is expensive but shrugs

[Alysha]

I like it because Graphics won best department

Nah, even though it may work out expensive, I think it's a fab change, allows people to keep track etc. Also I like the layout, very easy on the eyes

Yas after looking over all your work this month, especially towards the end and the quantity you've produced (and the fact you won last month too despite it being a new year) I decided to award you 2

Not a huge fan of how the points work beyond the initial staff of the month to be honest not because it's an outright bad idea, but because it is probably harder in some departments to go beyond the 1 from being SOTM. It can be very easy to make lots of graphics or create lots of content, but how is a forum moderator supposed to exceed when their workload is dependent on "bad" forum activity?

That's the only issue I see with it as is anyway.

It's not necessarily done on quantity of work itself, more on like willingness to help, advertise, come up with ideas, advise, all that going beyond the realms really! It's not gonna be judged comparative across the departments but individually. For example with a mod, it would be them submitting the reports and keeping on top of logs but also getting people to come on the forum, encouraging posting, helping plan department events or coming up with ideas for that, advising new members of staff!

Ah OK fair enough, that makes a bit more sense I suppose.
