Is it possible for a bounty manager to reduce token located for a specific campa

[walemil]

The bounty campaign manager reserves the right to adjust, remove or add more bounty rewards where necessary. If you check some bounty rules, you will see that there are minimum number of participants required in order to earn the reward stipulated, otherwise it will be slashed.

IF a bounty manager allocated 20% for contents campaign and he find out at middle of campaign that he has only 30 participants. can he cancel or modify the allocated percentage.
 
What advice you have for the manager.

if something like that happens, usually the bounty manager has the right to cancel or change the percentage allocated.
but as far as I know, I know the same thing, the manager won't stop but continues and what he does is change his presentation

Yes, he can do that if that is included in the bounty's disclaimer, and this thing happened many times before. So we, as bounty hunters, ought to read and understand every single word written in the bounty rules. Do note that this sometimes happens without prior notice. It happened to me many times when the allocation was reduced for this same reason of not achieving the target number of participants in a certain campaign. Well, if the BM has a good character, he/she would include it early in the rules, as I understand that the devs sometimes require number of participants. This thing must be cleared by them with the devs they're working with to avoid trouble in the future.

It depend on the rules of bounty campaign right at the beginning. But I think reduce or increase amount of token for each part of bounty campaign depend on develop team of ICO project behind bounty campaign and bounty manager just need to handle bounty participants and their work weekly.

Yes to prevent the participants to dump the tokens, 20 percent allocated for 30 participants is already a huge amount of token per individual.

If that manager has its reputation and pride to protect, he won't do something crazy.

But look closely to the rules of that campaign and see if there's specific rule about the allocation. Reputable manager would stick to what they have been implementing but a manager that sees advantage to this because no one would notice only shows on what type of manager he is.

Gaining reputation wont really be that easy and no manager will just risk out his reputation for such foolish act to be done.He can really change things if he wanted to but same as others saying on here that it will depend always on the project owners if the tokens will be decreased or not depending on the outcome of the ICO but on general speaking if rules is being set on the first day of the bounty program
then its already fixed and such changes wont really be welcome thats why im not really against for some arguments between bounters and the management if somethings wrong with their pay.

They should receive the deserve amount of tokens and stakes that they have made.

A reputable manager won't really gamble with this idea so that's why they would stick to what they have been doing and won't cause themselves a ruckus because they all wanted to work properly and silently. That's what they used to work so like I said, if ever someone will do it, he's showing his true nature.

To change the rules, a manager can but to change the bounty allocation, I think they should discuss with the developer and team unless he promoted harder for a bounty which he leads to get more participants

Unfortunately that really happened to me in one of the camps a few weeks ago. Not only the manager, even this directly from the owner that he knows the campaign participants are only a few people and he immediately cuts the allocation on the grounds that the coin distribution is evenly distributed and there is no jealousy from other campaign members. So basically they have the right to do that.

This is possible if the devs really appreciate the job done by the bounty manager.

They have the right to do that, who holds the fund - them. You guys can't do anything with that and always check if the rules of that campaign if it says that manager's decision is final.

Yesterday, there was another thread on the matter, with a specific case (see What can we do if a bounty manager did not pay the tokens as they promised?). An ICO called Globatalent Network stated a bounty of 1,1M$ and has had that information on it’s Bounty thread since January 2018 (and still is showing that value to date). Bounty token distribution started yesterday, and now the alleged bounty total for the campaign is of 0,1M$ (distributed in their tokens, not USD). Basically, they have cut the revenue ten fold, claiming miserably that they made a mistake and that the total of 1,1M$ was the aggregate for a set of campaigns, and not for this specific one.

So the answer to the question of whether it is possible to reduce the token allocation is a clear yes. It’s not ethical, and the ICO will suffer all the negative comments to come due to such low level actions. Not that they care really too much; most of these cases will likely have the objective of taking the money and good riddance to all, worst case being the investors who actually dipped some (crypto)cash into the ICO. This is a high risk environment, with barely any regulation nor control, in which wasting your personal time is the least that can happen …
