Re: Joe's Signatureless Challenge (Round 4) - 1st: $25 + 8Merits | 2nd: $10 + 6M
Although im not currently part of this challenge, i'd like to add one merit donation to the 4th place. Let me know if you accept this, and i'll save them.
Edit: I meant that i'd like to give the merit forvthe same requirements as LoyceV, so low ranked members have a chance too for merit

Awesome, this is very noble of you. I've merited you for the simple fact that even though you have a right to be frustrated for the last round of this challenge, you have still shown that you care about the intent behind it. To be clear, do the same conditions apply as @LoyceV's conditions? That your merit is only to go towards a Newbie or Jr. Member?
Cheers!
Hi Joe,
I updated my application. I didn't see that you needed the Google Spreadsheet form until now. I'm not sure if that rule changed happened before/after the deadline had passed... Am I still in this round?
It has been announced multiple times with plenty of notice that we were moving over to the forms in order to process applications. I will add you to Round 4, but in the future, please check back in this thread every so often, or at the very least, once a week! Thanks
Good day! I was wondering if it is available to change the bitcoin address. Can I change my bitcoin address because my current bitcoin address that on the spreadsheet have hacked. Kindly change to

The scoring formula is just a weighted average based on the 4 criterias that I grade when reviewing userss posts
I don't mean to put you on the spot by any means, but are the criteria something you are willing to make public, or at the very least share with me in confidence? I'm very interested in hearing what these are. I'm not sure if you are open to negotiation on these criteria in the hopes to improve them; not that there is anything wrong with them, but there is always room for improvement. I was unaware that you had official criteria, and I feel like they may assist me in meriting posts, or figuring out which deserve it.
I have the major criteria on the spreadsheets in the top right corner, but those are just high-level that don't go into too much detail. I'm mainly looking for the users' ability to stay on topic while being contributive as heavily weighted scores, while the ability to speak proper English is a lower-weighted score. Forum meta (quotes, wall texts, references, links) is a small factor into the overall score, as is the forum spread (posting in multiple sections throughout the forums). I also adjust scores based on the post placement by the participants: If a participant is mainly posting in megathreads or threads (in themselves) that do not provide substance to the forums (generally in Bitcoin/Altcoin Discussion or Speculation), the user gets penalized for it. If it's obvious that a user feels more comfortable in a few subcategories and displays the ability to portray their expertise in a few select subs, they won't get penalized too much for not visiting a good spread of subs.
When I choose posts that I deem to be meritorious, I select posts that I feel are contributive to (a) the topic, (b) the forums, (c) the Bitcoin/crypto industry and/or (d) the user has put a good amount of above-average thought into the post.
I hope this helps answer some of your questions!
Would like to reserve 2 merits for this week for Place 2. Please update the OP with the same.
Done, thank you!
