We are releasing a new feature that has been discussed here for some time - User of the Month. Please check this page to see the ranking in action or read below for more details.
The ranking is calculated at every midnight (our hosting server is in California) and includes the following components.
Stories - Number of Stories posted by you (Factor 3)
Published - Number of your stories that were published (Factor 10)
Comments Recvd - Number of comments received by your stories (Factor 4)
Comments Given - Number of comments given by you (Factor 3)
Votes Recvd - Number of votes received by your stories (Factor 3)
Votes Given - Number of votes given by you (Factor 1)
Published Votes - Number of votes given by you before a story was published (Factor 2)
Disabled - Number of your stories that are disabled (Factor -10)
We are also planning a ‘User of the Year’ that would include an even bigger prize!
Some points to remember
- The rank displayed on the Ranking Page is the final rank.
- If 2 users are tied for the top position then BOTH will be given the award.
- A user can only win ‘User of the Month’ once a year but they are always eligible for ‘User of the Year’.
- If the top user has won the award in the current year then the next user in line who has not won will be crowned.
- All users will be contacted using the email address in their profile to co-ordinate delivery of the award.
The PRIZES for these users (monthly/yearly) are still being planned so please let us know if you have any suggestions.
Happy New Year!
