Monthly update.

Wow! Since the merit system was introduced on January 24, 2018, all members have sent over 1 million merits! This is undoubtedly a noticeable milestone for the forum. I'm glad the system is working properly. Roll Eyes


My calculations might be off, but I believe this is the post that received the 1,000,000th merit.


<From here on, he won’t receive any more Merit Source sMerits, no matter how much time goes by (*), until he regains his sending activity - and then it is as depicted above>

As far as I understand, if a merit source is inactive on the forum for a long time, his sMerit bank does not replenish, gradually decreases and probably becomes empty, so he needs to boost it to the maximum allowed value by sending merits again.
My monthly source merit bank is 100 merit. The second that theymos updated my source merit to this allocation, this was my available source merit amount. Some amount of time after theymos updated my source merit allocation to 100 merit, I spent some of my source merit, and exactly 30 days after I spent this source merit, the amount of merit I spent will be returned to my merit source allocation exactly one time.

The monthly merit source allocation is set manually by theymos, although he likely used some algorithm to calculate each sources allocation. Each sources allocation is not going to change without some kind of intervention by theymos.

These are the monthly statistics for October 2021 below.

I have to say that I am proud of my work.

I am curious to see the stats for the year and/or 12 month rolling stats.
