Balance Adjustment & Contest Changes



  • Entertainment grading base and points assigned

Grading base update:

0: Dull (A post that does not invoke any emotional response i.e. happiness, nostalgia, sadness, etc)

1: Average (A mildly entertaining post. There is some conscious effort to make the post interesting either through pictorial representation or storytelling)

2: Brilliant (A very sensual post that engages the audience senses; invokes strong emotional responses)


  • Formatting grading base adjusted

Grading base update:

2: There may be formatting issues in the article that distracts the reader, but it is minimal. Examples: Pasting website links within a passage without using markdown language, large passages of text which overwhelm the reader (this includes articles with sufficient spacing between text bodies).


  • Overkill deduction grading altered (Feedback will specify the deduction)

Grading base update:

-1: Overwhelming Text (The article has large segments of text which overwhelm the reader)

-1: Convoluted (The article confuses the reader with multiple perspectives)

-1: Unnecessary Mixture (The article mixes multiple elements of artistry and information with little substance or sense)


Feedback from anyone and everyone is always welcomed.

NFT Prize Information

This week, I have nothing notable to say except that myself, @shubhwaj, and @revise.pob have discussed a shorter duration for season two. This will likely be seven weeks long with a one week break for the results and downtime (need to give our brains a break every now and then!).

Also, authors who are disqualified for tag spamming will still have their posts related to the word graded. This will show up on the leaderboard for now but it will be adjusted so the points aren't added to the season totals. This affected @crismanto and @ageste's scores this week.

Anyway, time to zoom off. Keep up the quality, and don't forget that consistency is the aim of the game. Enjoy the week ahead.

PS. engagement reward system is well underway; get some practice in.
