Title: November Recruitment Contest Winner and December Contest!
Post by: Wintermoot on December 01, 2015, 04:56:09 AM
The November contest is over! Throughout the month, you guys recruited to over 3000 nations resulting in an across of around 30 nations since the contest started...more importantly, some of those you recruited became Citizens, and are now a part of our community. This would not have been possible without you! However, there can only be one winner, and after checking the totals I can say that the winner of the contest is...Bodobol!

Quote
Wintermoot: 8675 + 190 (Kresshland, Commander_Zemas) = 8865
@Bodobol: 1608
@Barnes: 601
@Crushita Telcontar: 305
@BraveSirRobin: 94 + 50 (Viscanta) = 144
@Wuufu: 0 + 140 (Gerrick) = 140
@HannahB: 26
@taulover: 1
@Point Breeze: 1

Congrats, Bodobol! Let us know what game you want out of the game bag (http://wintreath.com/forums/index.php?topic=2916.0) and I'll send you a PM with information on how to claim it. :)

But now, November is in the past and it's a whole other month, so the contest begins anew with everyone at ZERO points. Last night I mentioned an upgrade (http://wintreath.com/forums/index.php?topic=904.msg50873#msg50873), and this is why...the system now records what nations you recruited to and where they go in this game, which translates to more points for you!

Quote
December Point Scale
Recruiting a nation through our recruiter page - 1 point
If that nation moves into the region - 10 points (another 10 if it's still there at the end of the month)
If that nation applies for Citizenship - 50 points
If that nation makes 20+ posts - 80 points
If that nation makes 50+ posts - 150 points

Same as last month, the winner will have to have at least 1500 points in order to be able to pick a prize from the game bag. So, what're you doing reading this? Get recruiting!

Did you click on one of the nation links? You're supposed to send a telegram if you click a nation link in there lol

I might have accidentally clicked on one of the nation links, sorry about that.

I'm going to try to do some recruiting throughout the month, but I won't be competing this time around.

Just out of interest, @Sapphiron, are you a gamer?
Title: November Recruitment Contest Winner and December Contest!
Post by: Sapphiron on December 24, 2015, 02:12:36 PM
I consider myself a casual gamer. In fact, I don't even have a Steam account, and will only be getting one if I win and get World End Economica, which is a visual novel. :P

Because I of course am not participating for prizes, this means that Gerrick is the winner of the month with just 72 points over Sapphiron (better luck next time :()! Veeerrryyy close. Congrats Gerrick! Please let me know what game from the game bag you would like, and I'll get in touch with you on how to claim it. :)

Nice last minute rush, congratulations!

Nice last minute rush, congratulations!

Interestingly enough, 1.09% of the nations you recruited came to the region compared to 0.73% of Gerrick's, so you came out ahead somewhere. :P

I don't think there's a consolation prize? :P

There's the joy of knowing you came out ahead somewhere :P

Post by: Gerrick on January 01, 2016, 05:12:36 PM
Sweet, thanks! I do think that its probably not right that I won even though Sapphiron actually got more nations to move to Wintreath.

Maybe nation residency and citizenship should be worth more recruitment points? Or the basic recruitment just shouldn't be worth any points, so you get points for results, not just doing work?

Post by: Wintermoot on January 02, 2016, 07:43:50 PM
The points for residency were actually doubled this month...quadrupled if you count the additional points for nations still in the region at the end of the month. :P

You both put a lot of effort into recruiting this month, and either of you could say you deserve to win...it was a very close call through the entire contest.

Yeah, that makes sense. In that case, I'll take Terraria if I can. :D

Awesome! I've sent it to you as a Steam gift...let me know if you have any issues. :)
