Hi, i have 185 sMerit (EDIT: look on the bottom of page how much left) and since I am not that active, I doubt i could give it to the ones that deserve it and need it the most, so I have these ideas :
1- i will give between 1 and 5* sMerit for everyone that could make an image helping newbies to understand anything related to Bitcoin, Blockchain, wallets, FAQ in bitcointalk.org (
Merit, ranking, trust, activity...). It is not required to implement all the informations on 1 image! Make it as simple and clear as possible.
(* depending from the number of participants, most will get between 1-2 after acceptance, exceptional work up to 5. The reward could be decreased in case other members already left sMerit for the participant even if the image was posted before in a different topic)
2- I will give between 1-10* sMerit for educative .gif or videos
(* depending from the number of participants, most will get between 3-5 after acceptance, exceptional work up to 10. The reward could be decreased in case other members already left many sMerit for the participant. However videos containing pure texts alone -somehow like a book/newspaper- will not get more than 2 sMerit in most cases after acceptance)
3- I am open for any different idea (making a cartoon or a movie
), anything that could help the Bitcoin community is welcome (no minimum, it will depends on how i see your work Meanwhile the other members are free to give it what they like)
4- Translation of the works that will be posted here to your language is accepted after the approval of the original owner (only 1 sMerit after acceptance).
Rules :
- I prefer to not make a dedicated art for altcoins but you could mention it briefly.
- Do not copy-paste, only (re)post your work. If you found copying, you will be reported and you will likely get a negative trust.
- Other members are welcome to credit nice works
- Legendary & negative trust will not get any reward from me at least (it depends in reality but to avoid problems in the future)
- The reward may take several days to be delivered, i am not that active-time fault!, (do not blame me
)
- First came first served until my sMerit turn to 0 (do not blame me for having 0 sMerit!)
- I will not look to any of your previous posts, i will give you a chance to improve after your hard work.
- Oh yeah, those arts could be used later by the community so think to add your nick in the corner.
- Do not reserve a post please
- Afaik this post do not break any unofficial, hidden rule. If not, please tell me to lock it.
- To apply other rules later or not to apply, that is the question.
Edit 1:
- Added
"and me" "after acceptance" in point 4 to avoid abuse of easily translated texts. (reedited /edit 5)
- Try avoiding duplicated content (will not be credited) unless you have a way better image (no guarantee).
- Do not post 0 effort work, it will only make troubles for everyone.
Edit 2:
- Added precision for point 2 to avoid having multiple images posted as a video.
- 177 sMerit left.
Edit 3 :
- I think the forums don't need more Merit poster (theymos Merit topic contains already several of it)
Precision : February 19, 2018 : 160 sMerit left
Edit 4 : February 20, 2018
-
Try always to have a proof of your work by having your nickname on the corner or a link referring to your profile on the video header/comment if your name in YouTube for example is different than the one in bitcointalk. (reedited by adding underline/edit 5)
- 150 sMerit left
Precision : February 25, 2018 : 137 sMerit left
Precision : February 27, 2018 : 127 sMerit left (stats: 58 sMerit sent to 19 arts in 13 days)
Edit 5 : February 28, 2018 (Important changes)- 2 weeks since we started and after reviewing the quality of art submitted here, I adjusted the rates accordingly and edited the text by removing the minimum part in point 1 & 2 and replacing it by "after acceptance" (which is obvious / min now for all art is 1 sMerit after acceptance). The new rate isn't that important imo since basically all the participants until now get sMerit in the actual ranges (maybe the only ones who will be affected is arts with low-medium quality videos)
- To allow as much people showing their skills, I will set a virtual maximum of 10 sMerit per person : if someone will receive from me 10 sMerit then his next accepted contributions will be rewarded by max 1-2 sMerit per contribution even if the contents are extraordinary.
Precision 1 : for the moment, I don't give sMerit to anything except for arts posted or linked to this topic, so please stop sending me private messages or posting in this topic for a review of non-art contents. Thanks.
Precision 2 : February 28, 2018 : 120 sMerit left (stats: 66 sMerit sent to 22 arts in 2 weeks)
Precision : March 02, 2018 : 106 sMerit left (minus approximately 15 sMerit on-hold for 2 contributors) (stats without counting the on-hold ones : 80 sMerit sent to 31 arts in 16 days)
Edit 6: March 03, 2018
- Any image containing
mostly merit & activity will not be counted because i think we have enough of it for now. Videos are until now accepted but it should have a good quality otherwise it will not be accepted.
- Making this ugly OP a little bit cute
