Thank you for this! I’m late for this post-mortem. It took me some time to gather my thoughts.
  1. I expected SN to announce the nyms of all 64 Stackers at the end of MSM. Having 90k sats suddenly pop up in my wallet was euphoric ngl, but the radio silence surrounding the closure was anti-climatic, especially since MSM was launched with such fanfare. I expected poppers n streamers n balloons on an official post by SN! 🥳
Ofc now I know that the team was preoccupied with the bug issue, but I suggest that the closure of April’s SMS be regarded as a celebratory event (even if the novelty has worn off) so that the team gets more mileage out of it haha.
  1. I think the competition isn’t as fun for me because I still don’t know who got first second third. I finally figured out why @Darthcoin kept saying that this competition was rigged. I think he meant that it’s only fair to compete if everyone’s identities were revealed at some point in time. I don’t want to lose to concealed identities. I want to properly congratulate the winners n maybe throw them some sats. This is a community event n should be recognised as such. If Stackers care more about their privacy, that’s fine - but they shouldn’t be allowed to join MSM. Period. It spoils the fun for me n I suspect, many of us. That’s why I really appreciate how @Scoresby n @0xbitcoiner revealed their placing.
  2. I think it isn’t so true that Stackers who post every day will automatically get into the top 100. I mean, I post in several territories n notice that there are Stackers who post exclusively in a territory. The folks who post their photos every day on ~Photography are quite unlikely to break into the top 100, I think. Another example may be ~Music. There just aren’t that many zaps ⚡️. But shouldn’t the contributions by these niche Stackers be rewarded in some form?
  3. MSM has made me realise my values more clearly. It’s more fun for me if the system were inclusive. I think I felt happier on days when I got an unexpected 6-8k sats for Daily Rewards because Sensei managed to wrestle those sats from EVERYONE participating. Sensei in the House, yoz. Sorry to degenerate into frat boy immaturity but that was really my mental state haha
My two sats’ worth
You are right.
