Awards: Criteria Discussion

[jross]

The point of this topic is to discuss what awards to recognize and what criteria to use.

 

Criteria Considerations

• What to award
• How many members to award
• How to balance scores across low and high-ranked members (post counts, etc.)
• Minimum criteria to qualify for award consideration
• The numerous ways emojis are utilized

 

What to award?

• Positive
  • Dan Hodge Trophy — the most outstanding members based on reputation (AKA Cael's Crest)
  • Most Dominant Award — the members with the most positive reactions received, positives given, and posts
  • Schalles Award — the best members (pinners) based on days won (AKA Snyder's Summit - Winners Win)
  • Gregorian Award — to the member with the most pins/days won in the least amount of membership time
  • Gable Grind Award — most posts
  • Greg Warren Award — for the comedians
  • Brands Beacon Award  — members with the most profile views
  • Burroughs Brilliance - members with the most likes
  • Rising Stars — highest reputation for new members
  • Team Players — members in the most clubs and thanks reactions
• Negative
  • Stallers — members with the longest tenure and fewest posts/reactions (lurkers)
  • Trolls — members that give an excessive amount of WTF and Sad reactions
  • Troll Feeders — members that receive an excessive amount of WTF and Sad reactions
  • Twilight Zoners — members with the most confused reactions given and received

What should the goals and criteria be for recognizing comedians?  

 

Based on Posts:

How often are you funny?

• comedianScore = rcvdHaha / posts
• M1: 93.0% = 40 / 43
• M2: 17.2% = 660 / 3834
• M3: 4.0% = 52 / 1300

Based on Reputation:

Are you known as funny?

• comedianScore = rcvdHaha / reputation
• M1: 36.7% = 40 / 109
• M2: 24.9% = 660 / 2650
• M3: 27.6% = 52 / 188

Based on Overall Engagement 

Do people engage because you are funny?

• comedianScore =rcvdHaha / sumReceived
• M1: 36.4% = 40 / 110
• M2: 24.5% = 660 / 2694
• M3: 26.0% = 52 / 200

Emphasizes the relative importance of "Haha" reactions

Are you frequently funny, known as funny, and engaged because you are funny?

• comedianScore = (rcvdHaha/posts) * (rcvdHaha/reputation) * (rcvdHaha/sumReceived)
• M1: 12.4% = ( 40 / 43 ) * ( 40 / 109 ) * ( 40 / 110 )
• M2: 1.1% = ( 660 / 3834 ) * ( 660 / 2650 ) * ( 660 / 2694 )
• M3: 0.3% = ( 52 / 1300 ) * ( 52 / 188 ) * ( 52 / 200 )

*Balanced on Posts, Reputation, and Overall Engagement

Are you frequently funny, with a strong reputation, and strong engagement?

• comedianScore = (rcvdHaha/posts) * (reputation/posts) * (sumReceived/posts)
• M1: 603% = ( 40 / 43 ) * ( 109 / 43 ) * ( 110 / 43 )
• M2: 8.4% = ( 40 / 3834 ) * ( 2650 / 3834 ) * ( 2694 / 3834 )
• M1: 0.9% = ( 52 / 1300 ) * ( 188 / 1300 ) * ( 200 / 1300 )

 

*I like this one with the 'strong engagement' criteria as unnecessary.

Starting with the Greg Warren Award and moving forward, making Varsity is a requirement for the cross-member rank award.
