How much you need? I can spot you if you don't want to deposit.

Thanks. I'm good. I'm just an old creature of habit who has trouble when my routine is changed!

I like that they are testing something new but also going to take some time getting used to not seeing the balance go up overnight via rewards and knowing the landlord comes knocking on the 5th of every month.

I'm a dimwit so bear with me. The rewards pool is 100k to 200k a day, which is like 3 mil a month. Is an additional 3 mil a month getting added, or are we just delaying and reshuffling the same rewards?

It's not additional it is just delayed.

I am wondering is it also how the change happened - like people used to work from daily to monthly? 😂

Yeah. I just reread the original post.

Okay. I just reread the original post. One question- Is it correct that all stackers will get the rewards they earn, not just the top 64? So a new stacker will earn whatever modest reward they would have received under a daily reward system, even if they aren't in the top 64?

all rewards go to the top 64

Ok, so my question then is why? Aren't we supposed to encourage new stackers?

107 sats \ 14 replies \ @kr 1 Mar

we want to see if the structure and timing of rewards has any impact on engagement and onboarding.

perhaps the competition will drive people to increase their content quality (and make the site more interesting for new stackers).

or maybe the appeal of the large rewards pool will incentivize lurkers to set up an account and try to compete.

or maybe the month-long rewards cycle will help stackers better understand how to bring more value to SN.

lots of unknowns still.

I know. So the answer is no. New stackers who don't reach the threshold of 64 will not be rewarded? Either way, my big question is why? I feel like a lab 🐀 or one of Pavlov's pooches.

Million Madness is an experiment to replace daily rewards with monthly rewards.

so is this an experiment in regards to potentially making this a permanent change or just for this month as a special event?

Did I miss the memo that the rent is delayed? April Madness!
