ArmchairGM User Stats '07 - Let the Games Begin!

15
Vote

As you may or may not know, we've had to retool the "Top Users" section of the site due to the user merge with Wikia. Everyone is going to be ranked by a pure points system, based on their various activity on the site.

Without further ado, here are the new standings (updated in real-time!).

Here are some tips on how to get more points:

  • Comment on People's work
  • Provide Insightful Comments :)
  • Share Your Thoughts
  • Find the coolest players and add to their page
  • Pick an Encyclopedia, and go to Edit Town, population you!
  • Help with a project, or start a new one!
  • Work to become an admin, and fight vandalism
  • Vote for stuff!

Some other ideas that we are currently throwing around that will get points

  • Winning challenges
  • Referral Bonuses

Your stats on User Pages still will have the old stat box with your overall numbers, but the new "season" stats will be broken down soon.

Let us know if you have any questions.

I'm going to pass Dan pretty soon. I will be racking out articles and edits like they ain't no thing starting this weekend, and going up until next fall. Btw, is there any chance that we could get points for having the most commented on articles (check the author of the top 4 for my reasoning)

its going to be interesting to see how far ahead the hard core users jump out...what do you guys think the "season" timeframe should be? a year? 6 mos?

I would make it less than a year... 6 months sounds good. A year could make it too hard for new users to jump up the rankings.

make it 6. I think that it makes it more fun, and give everyone their season to shine. For instance, I write more when the NFL is in progress because I know a lot more and have more opinions about the NFL. WHereas Bball has a lot more to say about Baseball, when baseball isn't in season, his totals go down.

That's true. I'm like Deion Sanders, I'll write about multiple sports at once. And, on top of that, I once doused Tim McCarver in ice water. Bet you didn't know that about me, but it's true.

I do like these statistics - primarily because now there is a point to things. (Bare with this explanation). Now, every edit gets credit, whereas before, if I made 5,000 edits I would still be nowhere nearer to the likes of Roblefko.

My rankings are directly tied to my feelings of self worth, you know. If you knock me out of first, my feelings will be hurt and I'll bury myself in a gallon of ice cream. OR more likely, I'll just yawn appropriately.

(I don't mean to take up so many comments, I just keep finding new things to ask/complain about...) Can they be defaulted to 2 decimal places, so that it looks a bit better, rather than have some whole numbers, and some decimals?
