Logged on today to see that I had 6 alerts.

When clicking on them they say I have been awared x amount of trophies, what are these trophies and do I get anything for these trophies?

Totally bemused?

Sintra · Aug 22, 2016

Get them for various things.

GMES · Aug 22, 2016

Well if you do then I can't wait !! I've got 1303 BOOM , not that I'm bragging

Did Dan and who ever helped come up with this or did it come with the forum software? Genuine question and doesn't matter if it's not answered.

happysteve · Aug 22, 2016

I suspect most of it is the software, apart from the SUPER HELPFUL PERSON one...

Lou · Aug 22, 2016

No I'm pretty sure Dan made them all. He's worked all weekend on the forum.

Dan · Aug 22, 2016

The first 4 or 5 were alread there but we all ended up with 113 points and an established forum could do with a few more being gifted out so I made a bunch more. Still looks like I need to add some more as loads of people have maxed out.

There's a leader board here

How many points do you need for a sandwich toaster?

Dan · Aug 22, 2016

2000, and 40,000 for the speedboat.

Dan · Aug 22, 2016

The super helper person one is a like ratio of .7 and 100 or more posts.

How does that work then regarding the 1000 pointer, can a relatively newish poster post a few jokes and get the award very quickly when they hit 100? and can you lose the 1000 points by dropping you ratio below .7 once you achieve it..

I need to get about 1300 likes without posting anymore to get there

.... and I thought I was super helpful

Well I am a bit lost with it too, looked one member has only posted a couple of times an he's got over 1000 points.?

Dan · Aug 22, 2016

Yeah I've only just added the conditional to have 100 posts.

We'll see how it goes. Can always add another few to reward more people.

If somebody posts 100 jokes and 70 of them are good id gladly give them 1000 points lol

GMES · Aug 22, 2016

I've got one thing to say, Read em n weep suckers

happysteve · Aug 22, 2016

You should change your location so it says, "Top of the Banana Tree."...

Darkwood · Aug 22, 2016

I refuse to like your post @GMES , it would be liken to feeding you more Banana's while you mock us about how many you have. :bananas:

Dan · Aug 22, 2016

I don't know what's going on here, something fishy.

I need to sort it out. Lou's come on for 2 weeks and thrashed the points! That's not on.

Lou · Aug 22, 2016

How am I top?!

Dan · Aug 22, 2016

I haven't a clue lol.

I've just added loads more to reward the people with the most likes because I assume those are the ones who deserve to be top.

I'll add some more when I can be bothered it started to get boring adding them lol

Lou · Aug 22, 2016

Well I'll enjoy my moment of glory while it lasts!

Dan · Aug 22, 2016

I don't know how you've done that. The other mods should have way more because they've got all the posts.

Dan · Aug 22, 2016

Kinda working. I think the system hasn't dished them all out yet.

Darkwood · Aug 22, 2016

Who's got all the Banana's now @GMES :bananas::bananas::bananas:

Dan · Aug 23, 2016

Christ that's a fair few points there!

Does it seem a weighted towards staff or what? I guess staff are the ones with the most threads and likes and stuff so makes sense but perhaps we need to give the newbies a chance to earn some points somehow.
