Whatever makes you feel better.

I'm sorry if my sarcastic comment was too much for you to bear.

Everyone should be able to voice their opinion, just don't make it personal. The moment you start going ape, nobody wins. I've seen omega's posts on a bad day and in this case, he definitely just asked you a question. I don't think he was calling you out on anything, man. When I read your post, I thought the same thing. "Hmmm, what does that mean?" It was a little confusing, that's all.

Now, it seels the slower I post, the faster and higher it climbs.

As Tony said in the first post of this thread, the "Activity" is based on
a combination of your Average Posts per Day and the number of Consecutive Days online for the last 30 days. Your average PPD could change considerably, depending on how often you post.

You can check on these stats either through your User CP or through the Experience page (click on the Statistics tab and it's under "Social" and "Posts").

The 30 day limit was there when the contest debuted and has not changed. It would be unfair to newbies if we counted all activity, or even the past few months. It would be very difficult for a new member to compete against a veteran when the vet might have months or years of activity banked.

Is there a way to filter the results by month so users can see where they stand?

Only the owner of the site has access to do that.

That's why I thought I won. What do you see when you click on the Experience tab? ..you see results that mean nothing.

Those are the all-time results. The contest results have to be manually pulled from the back end system. It's a third party add-on, so them's the breaks.

I'd suggest removing the Experience page, since the data shown is irrelevant to anything that's going on right now, or clearly indicate on that page that what you're looking at is all-time data and not just the monthly data that's important to the contest.

Thanks for the suggestion, but we'll be keeping it as is.

You can see "Recent Activity" under the statistics page. That is for the last few days or so. I didn't install the system, so I'm not sure how many days to be precise.

You're welcome. I can lead a horse to water, but I can't make him drink.

Definitely a good thing there's no horses posting here. Otherwise we might have had something.

Why would the winners be announced soon if the results are already in and you know who got 1st, 2nd and 3rd place?
Wasnt it Classified, then thechris, then me?

Oh that what those awards were for? This whole time I thought it was ranking lol. I thought Optimus had first place lol.

Joe Moore · 10-03-2011, 02:49 PM

1) We were waiting for all of the winners to get back to us
2) I am not the one announcing the prizes
3) Announcements are at the owners discretion

Do Boy · 10-03-2011, 03:19 PM

Aww guess I didn't win

Why would the winner have to get back to you whether they want the prize or not? They still finished in that place.

Tony_Bacala · 10-03-2011, 06:04 PM

I was waiting for the winners to get back to me, however, I was pulled away this weekend after I sent the initial PMs, and haven't been able to look at it again until now. Will do that up now.

DogFashionDisco · 10-03-2011, 06:49 PM

I..... won bronze? How the hell did I do that?
