Extra weeks added to bounty campaign

Quote from: Javi_Anibarro on November 04, 2019, 08:23:10 AM

I have participated in 2 or 3 projects before, and all of them gave me nothing. They ran away because they can not afford to run the project with limited money.

That's awful, but I've come to expect nothing less from these scammers even tho I don't participate in bounties myself. You would have to be blind not to see all the scam accusations being leveled against project devs and bounty managers, and there have been *many* of them just in the last year alone.

Op, if you can get paid for the work you already did, I would ditch the bounty and find something else to do. Find a signature campaign that pays with bitcoin if you're able to write constructive posts, because at least those are legitimate whereas the bounties paying in tokens...not so much. Even if you do get paid your stakes, there is a good chance those tokens won't be worth your time when you go to sell them.

I'm not certain why a bounty would be extended, but it really doesn't sound like a good idea if I was a bounty hunter. Just move on.

To all bounty hunters on this wonderful forum i want to know if its advisable to continue with the bounty you have been promoting for 12weeks that got extra 8weeks added more, have you promote projects this long that ends up with good end results? Thank you

If they are going to pay with those extra weeks why not? They came short with the exact plan that why it is. They aren't forcing you either? are they? Besides such additional weeks is for the project to become successful though might as well participate to it, even though that you really came for the incentives then try to be sympathetic as well 'cause you already there from a long time.

I tried going to the Xcard bounty thread but I didn't see announcement about adding 8 weeks.

8 weeks would be another 2 months of job so I hope it would be worth while for campaigns hunters. I have joined to campaigns doing this and it end up not well. I know it may not be the the fault of the campaign manager but he allow himself to be used by the team. It would be worth if the coin will have a good price in the end and tokens distributed before the exchange listing.

This year I did not join the bounty project so much, because some of the projects that I participated in ended up being successful but the results were not so good, although there was an additional duration of the week, and if I joined now there was also an increase in the duration of about 3 weeks from the previous made in 8 weeks, and the results I can not predict whether it will be good or not.

You should just leave it, I think the bounty program that extends its campaign does not reach sales targets. That means the project that will be run by the developer is not good so investors are not interested in the project.

Well it depends in you if you like to continue to promote, I participated many campaigns that adding more weeks to promote their projects, some ends up with good result, but some not. They should add more tokens allocations if they like to add weeks to promote.

I am now participating in a campaign that will last almost 1 year in total. Why? Because I simply believe that these guys are serious and they are going to create really good stable coin that will finally give confidence in this industry. It is very important to choose legit bounty campaign at the start, especially when you are the signature participant because removing signature means in most cases campaign exclusion.

It depends, if I could leave the campaign and still get the rewards then I would do it because it's already enough to spend 12 weeks on that project and you could still get a decent reward for that project. AND if I would spend another 8 weeks on that project and ended up that project failed. It would be a dead sign for me.

There's no exact answer for this as it depends on the project you are involved. Extending a campaign sometimes do extend the distributed tokens and sometimes it's this amount of time could be considerable with the same amount. But you might also be getting nothing for the two further weeks yet you might get stuck with it as they don't allow to leave the campaign in the middle. If they do, you could decide for your own.

It's better than you taking part in a project campaign that ends when the token sale is complete. and the funny thing is there is no certainty even in they postpone the sale. I have participated in a campaign like this and finally came out. waste time when we are not clear when the promotion is completed plus payment which we also do not know whether it will actually pay or not. LOL

I have experienced a number of projects that did additional work on the campaign. as long as the project is still consistent, I will continue to work on it until the end of the project. but if the project does not require to continue and can stop, then I choose to stop and move to another project

I do have experience about that too, joined bounty campaign but we worked for around 6 months from 6 weeks only, they added more weeks because their ICO was failed at private sale, as well as to the first round of public sale, so they are extending their public sale as well as the bounty campaign. If you don't want to continue and wanted to quit, you may confirm it first the bounty manager if they will still pay you after deciding to not continue, if they agree that you can still be paid then go on, you may find another ICO, but if it is in the rules that you cannot removed your signature, or you should be active during the campaign, then it is up to you to give up or to continue.

yez,as bounty hunter we have to be smart when working in campaign.moreover in extended campaign,if there is chance to move without any rejection its better to move on other campaign that possible give us more reward.extended campaign,in my opinion they need more time to attract investors.and usually it failed ,especially when traded in any exchanges .i am prefer working on campaign that dicipline with the time line.

last time I attended a bounty with a long duration of 9 weeks and after that they added another duration of 6 weeks, so a total of 15 weeks, and the results were quite satisfying because I could get almost $ 2000 from there, but at this time I suggest never to follow this because it is very difficult to ascertain whether or not it produces unless their sales are truly successful if not looking for bounties with shortweek duration only.

always when a project adding extra weeks of a bounty campaign it does not end with anything good. but now I am participating in the Cryptoknowmics project and they have extended the bounty campaign for 8 weeks. I continue to participate. What the results will be, I do not know yet

every project must be different in the stages of the managed bounty program, must have their respective strategies. if the project does not match the target being managed or the product promoted has not been reached to the maximum, so it is only appropriate if there is an extension to the bounty hunter program. I think it's more fun because we can get more rewards, and it becomes boring if there is an extra time. If your analysis is a real project, so go ahead and this is an opportunity for you to get more tokens.

what I know is that the bounty hunter program usually runs with several rounds and each round of token allocation is different.

New projects and bounty managers will always provide information about the projects they manage, if you are worried about the bounties you are participating in, it is better to complete the task on time according to the schedule they provide if the bounty is extended, there are projects that run more than 3 months to be able to share information on social media, to get more potential new investors.

The job of a bounty hunter is to promote the project, the more you promote the more new investors become aware so i don't see any thing wrong with additional weeks, since you have already started the bounty for weeks already i bet you do research on the project before promoting it.

Increasing the duration of the bounty is common to promote their projects so that their sales are better known to many people. Usually the addition of a bounty duration is only a few weeks and adjusts to the completion of their sales

Whenever extra weeks are added to the bounty campaign it can mean the following things :

1. The campaign is a success and they want to extend it to more weeks in order to extend the promo of the project

2. ICO's/IEO's is doing great and the marketing team decided to trow another round of coins into the bounty pool

3. They re-calculate the bounty stakes and if they low the rewards they can extend it for a couple of weeks ( this is a shady thing for a bounty to do )

Personally the 1 and 2 are the most usually reasons of why the bounty campaigns get extra weeks and you should enjoy it when it happens.
