Merit stat errors is due to Google being unable to scrape properly (maybe due to Cloudflare). Wait a bit and it will be working, or have different people with errors. Weird stuff, and not really fixable on my part as far as I know.

Nice to get a confirmation within a minute with only 2sat/byte

For bonuses:

1d10 to determine whether a bonus will be given, roll above 9 for a bonus. +1 on Roll if my Luck status is greater than 50.
1d58 to determine who gets the bonus
1d6 to determine the size of the bonus, where the roll is multiplied by 0.0025 BTC.

In all seriousness (above was my poor attempt at DnD), I've given them to those who stand out a lot. I'd be stuck forever if it was for the best poster/post, and a random bonus is kinda pointless. HCP and TheQuin stood out by posting a lot of posts which appeared to have taken a lot of effort to make; pooya87 got one for making numerous technical posts that stood out (if I remember correctly anyway).

Was the bonus for the most posts that didn't qualify?

I see our merit stats have gotten a bit goofy on the spreadsheet, because of formatting errors or something like that I presume. Thanks for getting posts counted before the day ended, not that it particularly matters; I was just rooting for you getting it done on time. Week 7 (for me) payment has been received with multiple confirmations already.

Seriously though, might we have more information on the bonus, if for curiosity if nothing else? Or are they meant to be a mystery? Do you spin a 58 sided die with all our names on it? The possibilities are seemingly endless.

This week's payments were sent. (609cef9981edac9ecc25f4687a143789c02f61fea4b7ad02ac6470a2fdd8abdf)

TheQuin was awarded a bonus of 0.0075BTC (yes they do exist, although they're quite rare)

No new slots.

+1

I'm also in the same situation here, sometimes I don't have anything to say, sometimes I don't find any interesting topics.
In my last campaign, I was unable to reach the minimum post almost in every week.

When you have nothing to say, but you are forcing yourself to post for the sake of sig. campaign then probably you will make a low-quality post.

I do the same as you audaciousbeing. I read through hundreds of threads per week, and definitely avoid adding anything to the topic if I feel that it won’t be contributing. There are times I would like to embellish on other users’ posts at times, but in the spirit of better judgment, I usually decide that their replies are good enough for me to not have to post just for the sake of posting.

And I have said it before, and I will say it again: @DarkStar_ has done and continues to do a phenomenal job of pruning and manicuring great members of this campaign. Having recently started a posting challenge, I know the work and time involved in reviewing no more than half of the amount of posts that he has to on a weekly basis. It is not an easy task by any means.

Just for the record, I have zero expectations of everyone/most people posting 50 a week.

This is one thing I have learnt being on this campaign as its more about quality. Times without number I would have set a target for myself and I could not meet it because I did not see any thread that my knowledge can add value to. I just decide till tomorrow maybe I will see and this is something that has been working to the advantage of the campaign and despite that, there is an increase in the amount of merit given on a weekly basis analysis done by the campaign manager.

The most surprising to me is that even when I could not meet up, and I feel that I am lagging behind in posts for the week as other participants have gone beyond the maximum only to see the updated spreadsheet that quite a number of people have the same issues as focus is on content rather than post counts...

Thank you, I found an exhaustive answer to my question. Plan posts performs about 20% of the participants.  It really speaks to the fact that many people do not work for money. I hope that in the future in the company for me there is a place.

I fucking love that you get it. I wish we had more Newbies like you.

There. That's a better statement than your last one, even if the main focus of it was to highlight the reward aspect of the campaign.

When I first joined the campaign, BTC was worth around $2,000-2,500/ea. That meant that getting paid for a maximum of 50 posts was under $100. While other campaigns at the time were paying higher, the reason I chose this one is because I used ChipMixer for a few weeks after reading the announcement thread. I personally endorsed the product; I have never worn a signature for a company that I didn't personally endorse in my bitcointalk history.

Even then, for being a new campaign, the posts by ChipMixer participants were pretty good. Over time, they got better and better. One of the reasons I loved this campaign was because there was no minimum post requirement for the week. In previous campaigns, I was so tired of all the shitposting done by participants just to meet the minimum/maximum. It's great that you recognize the rewards for posting great content, but the reason I love this campaign is because none of us talk about the rewards we receive. Go back and check this thread history. While I'm sure we all care about the earnings, I think I speak for most in this campaign when I say that the earnings is not what motivates us. It's just a byproduct for the carefully manicured posts that are created by the members.

That's right. I try to write useful posts. It takes time and distracts from the main work. I don't demand a reward for that. This is my hobby. But if the project offers a reward for good content, then I'm willing to spend more time studying problems and writing useful messages.

^----- THIS! Quoted for truth... Have a merit on me.

Some days, all you do is read... no point posting if the (correct) answer has already been given. Too often I see an OP posting a "Great, thanks for the help, got it working"-type post and not locking the thread... Then the VERY next post (usually days later) is someone attempting to answer the OP (usually incorrectly because they haven't actually bothered to the thread)... with some shitcoin sig campaign signature

Also, it you really want to see how bad things are... have a read of bill's "sMerit review" thread. It's quite a sad indictment of the general quality of posts these days... despite clearly setting specific rules, and offering advice about NOT posting on page 53276 of a megathread... users continue to link up "" posts from every MegaThread expecting to get merit points

The "no minimum post" is one of the most interesting things
I think forcing members to make xx posts weekly is counter-productive for the achievement of the intended purpose.

For example, sometimes I come to the forum but I have nothing to say and I just read people. I am not going to post "great project sir" here and there just for the sake to have something posted

You shouldn't have good post quality just because you're paid for it. You should have the standard and then be rewarded for it. Merely doing something for a financial incentive shouldn't be how you perceive the forum.

I agree with you. I am against shitposting, but in the current situation many members of the forum doing it.But for $ 300 a week, I'm willing to spend time studying the topic and writing useful content on the forum.

Pretty much this.

What attracts me the most to this campaign is that during busy weeks, like the past few, I am in no obligation to force myself to post. With a minimum requirement, all that other campaigns are doing is forcing other members to post even when they have nothing of quality to say. This is a possible reason why the merit percentage of members in this campaign is relatively high.

I've removed a person in the past who contributed pretty well, but entered with 2 accounts (Iranus). The 'wrong' is that it breaks the rules. I'd love to have nullius in the campaign, but he doesn't quality under the current rules, and does not want to have a paid signature be the only thing in his signature, if I remember correctly. Anyway, I fail to see how this is relevant at all.

Then don DarkStar_ should only pay nullius to wear the signature, let us watch what would happen. I see nothing wrong with one man participating with more than 1 account here, as long as they are contributing. even if their contribution is not denying that, because denying that, would be an insult.

Thanks. English is not my native language, and it's a little difficult for me to express an idea. I understand that all places are occupied, but some participants leave the subscription company for various reasons.
I try to understand how I can take the place of retired members.

Most of the users participating in the campaign from what I have seen don't post to get paid AKA they're not exclusive bounty posters. For most of them signatures are a nice incentive to post not an obligation. Remember that one quality post can get you much more promotion than 100 shitty posts in those endless mega threads which no one apart from "bounty hunters" (oh god I hate that term, glorifies what is essentially shitposting) give two shits about.

The word [FULL] at the beginning of the thread title indicates there are no free slots at this time.

Rule 1. We will pay a maximum of 50 posts every week. Posts will not be rolled over, and there is no minimum number of posts.

I'd guess some people joined this campaign because it doesn't force a minimum requirement. (Edit: and what Blue Tyrant said.)

I think your main problem is you haven't posted on the boards that ChipMixer sees as it's target audience. I've got most of the altcoin boards and all local boards on ignore and when I just looked at your entire post history I can see only 2 posts that would qualify.
