I can understand, but when we write about fairness, we must not only think about the condition, but also about the scoring.

Contributions - no matter how useful they are - are rewarded with 15 points. A comment is rewarded with 10 points. Up to 5 comments can be rewarded per day. That means you get 50 points in 2 minutes. So you have to do this for 13 days (+ the points for logging in) and you are already qualified for the lottery. This is certainly unfair to users who are more active here and/or help other users with problems and write half novels.

Here you could reduce the points awarded from 50 to 5 points/day (1 comment = 1 point). Even with 31 days you wouldn't get the number of points.

In addition, you could build in benefits as you rise in rank, e.g. you get more points for activity. At the moment, the rankings themselves have no added value, except that you get a title in your username.

I understand Falke's approach what he means but then again the question is where is the limit? Such a change could then lead to even more members in the lottery who are not active at all and thus have coins on inactive accounts


Such a balance update always carries the Risk of messing up the current system if you haven't thought about something properly

I would find the suggestion to add more things for the ranks really cool vill also something that doesn't bring any coin added value now but something you can see as a gimmick

There are thousands of possibilities what you can do there

At the very front what I would celebrate are still so skill games where you can play against other users whether for coins or just for fun is completely irrelevant but I personally would find such a menu item GJ Games cool

PS: I'm currently working with my team on a card game for the app stores of IOS and Google, theoretically you could also start a kind of Tournament for GJ members there once the development is finished haha (schedule overrun by 2 months)

Yes, but we all have a life. If you don't have time for a month (for whatever reason), then you have to qualify twice to be allowed to participate again. it's understandable that as a long-time user you're annoyed and demotivated. Perhaps a kind of "extra life" for experts and co. would be appropriate? You can't qualify once a year and still take part in the next lottery. This would change little about the current rules, but at the same time reward the more active ones. I mean, not all of us spend our vacation on a balcony. Those with children like to spend 3-4 weeks at a time somewhere without internet access. That's why I can understand Falke's criticism.


I also think it's a good idea to reduce the number of points for comments so that not so many people who only write "congratulations" win. That could cause the problem of people posting stupid posts. As you say, there's a Risk of upsetting the balance by changing the rules. The only solution I could think of would be to shorten and limit the points awarded for posts. 10 points in total per day for the posts (2 points per post). This would give you 15 points/day with posts/comments. That would be a maximum of 465 points/month.


In general, it might make sense to adjust the points. In the past there were not so many users.

Yes, some functions, e.g. "premium" avatars that you only unlock with the ranking. At the moment, they are of no use. I personally think that's a shame.

Well but if you reduce the points it's problematic again because then people who don't write commis would have to contribute a lot there which then lowers the quality


I'm on here almost every day but I still don't participate in much at all and actually get the points together easily and because you can do it so easily I think GJ will change nothing there

The topic with the undeserving participants we have often had without result because there is simply no way to separate people who make good contributions and people who write good comments and moochers

Somehow people will always slip through who write nonsense or participate 0 and you can only stop that if you stop the whole lottery

Well, you're making it all out to be as difficult as if it were a science. Simply exempt active users here from the 2-month rule. You could, for example, activate it for all users who have been registered for a year. Or who have already completed the points 12 times in total or something like that.

This would in any case include the users who were/are already very active here and exclude all newcomers. Voila, fairness and abuse of the competition is established.

In any case, I now have to spend another 2 months hitting the keys before I can take part in the competition again, even though I already have over 1,500 posts here and, as everyone of you knows, never write because of the points. Some of my posts are half the length of an essay, in which I try to explain my point of view in detail or give as detailed an answer as possible to a question. And then in the next lottery, all those who have managed to write congratulations for two months are there again. I just don't see the point.

Have you ever thought about the fact that there wouldn't even have to be a lottery and that this campaign might be over? then hopefully you'll still write in here what you don't like at all, right? GJ has already thought of why you have to get your points for 2 months in a row and in the end you probably wouldn't have had any luck this month.excitement for nothing and next month you'll be back & the topic is forgotten don't feel attacked again dear falcon. I really enjoy reading your posts now and I'm used to you often having something to complain about if I win I'll gladly share with you!!!
