because you could follow instructions and I wanted to put you ahead of the person that couldn't
This plant rocks.
Thanks for your posts! The one thing I've always liked better than completing a project is getting a response to it. It's the thing that makes my glad i'm part of sf0.
Someone completed the task! I've even been contemplating making a BPA friend to do it myself.
and a wonderful one at that.
Hey, I'm just glad you commented. I appreciate it and if you ever give me a vote, I'll honor it.
By the way, your current player pick can turn a stomache...it's just great...
let's hit a collaboration.
I was looking through some of the tasks completed by players, both recent and past, and I was surprised to find how many task completions I can miss, especially at a high level. Many of these tasks are voteworthy, but are quickly pushed off the recently completed task boards as new players enter the game and start to learn the system by doing some of the lower level tasks. I did a quick count yesterday and there were 172 boards of completed tasks. At 15 tasks per board that's over 2500 tasks completed. And at my level, I have all of 55 votes to disperse.
I think it would be great to have a way of splitting up the completed task page by level, so that if someone completes a level 6 task, it won't get burried by the 37 level 1 and 2 tasks that get completed. So maybe the last 5 completed tasks of each level with the higher level tasks staying in the forground of SF0 conciousness.
Also with voting, it's tougher now than when I started to discern what completed task I'm going to vote for when. Take my first vote ever cast - it was for a restroom photography task and in my quick study, it seemed the person I voted for was probably within the first 10 to submit the task. Since then, there have been 80ish times the task has been completed. I probably won't take the time to go sifting through each and every one of the 99 completions to find other vote worthy ones, but it does bring about the question of how many vote worthy items through all of SF0 haven't received a vote because they are lost among the avalanch?
I'm not bring this up to say this is an injustice of the system and should be fixed, yada yada yada, because I think the system works fine and a lot of the really great completed tasks obviously float to the top. And I certainly don't have a suggestion what changes to make to get it to be 'better' other than the one above. (perhaps an equivalenz person can figure out how to do that.) I just wanted to point out that for people playing the game, that votes can't be the only carrot (even though spotlight and i agree it's the play of the game that's important) since extra votes and tougher tasks are available only as characters advance in the levels of the game.
No fingers, we bought a large number of disposable spoons and gave one to everyone that wanted a taste.
