Pieces of Eight
 

Hello.
I hope this is the right forum for this topic.

How does one earn pieces of eight?

I know that one can earn 5 POE for correctly answering the daily quiz and 1 POE for signing in daily but what are the rates of POE for contributions and how else can one earn Pieces of Eight?

I found this old long topic by doing a search http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/showthread.php?t=17808 and I skimmed through it (I did not want to read all 58 pages) but I didn't really find an answer.

Thanking you in advance for the answer.

There are many ways; writing reviews, supplying screenshots for said reviews, supplying games that are approved, working in Grammar and working as a translator.

All of these provide a lot more then the 6 PoE for the screenshot challenge and signing in.

I continued searching the forums and I thing that I found my answer in this thread http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/showthread.php?t=20292

Also a partial answer here http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/sho...2&postcount=38

Anyways thank you.

That first link applies ONLY to the ezine. The second one might be partially correct, but IIRC we switched from a range of values to flat rate a while back (mostly because nobody could ever figure how exactly the higher/lower point rewards should be awarded).

H'm I read through that long thread and found this answer too http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/sho...&postcount=290 from 24-11-2008. Is it more accurate?

This is more:
Review 150
Game Update 50
Screenshots 15
Archive 50
Box shot 30
Document 50
News 10
Company 20
Press 30
Page 500-1500
Music track 30

So, are you still giving PoE for the things in previous post or not?
Cause I certainly didn't get mine for Rollcage review+screens. :dislike:

Those are still in the give statuspoint limbo.
You'll see them ASAP. :)

[EDIT]
Done.

I wonder why not all fellow updaters check the give statuspoint page after the update AS PART OF said update process. :mhh:
