I've been talking to Firn about how to reward the score won in the Knuffel games. There are two possible ways we are thinking about:

A. The one I call the "Lottery solution"
- For every fixed amount of points, yo get a "ticket" (which will be an ID code or something)
- Each week (or more often, when we feel like it) all tickets take part in a drawing the winner of the lottery gets a prize

B. The other, I call it the "Race solution"

- We set up some point marks (Like 5000, 10000, 50000, 100000 and so on)
- The first player that reaches each mark gets a prize

We're pretty sure we'll make the prize one free Knuffel you can choose from all Knuffels there are (except maybe the customs and special occasion versions), even ones sold out.

I think solution A has is better for the players, since it gives everybody a chance and not only the top players, while those with a higher score would still have a higher probability of winning. On the other hand, solution B is much easier to program.

Thus I want to ask: Which do you prefer?

First of all a little denial:
Old Knuffels will not be part of the game prizes because of the background issue we had (short summery for people who missed the announcement in the shop thread: We were using screenshots from games and movies for the backgrounds of the KNuffel and clearly stated it in ours shop. However, we were asked by a moderator to replace them with our own backgrounds which we did - but only for the new Knuffel being on sale. I would have to edit all backgrounds of the past Knuffel for adding them as prizes, which I can't because I don't have layered versions of all of them anymore and they would have to be completely remade.)

I personally prefere the lottery idea because it means that you don't have to get some crazy score/ be the first one to get that score to win a Knuffel.

A lottery would allowe the possibility to get a free Knuffel for more participant.

I agree with you both.
A does sound better.

I agree with you guys: A. seems like the better idea. I hear that you're going to start the raffle next week? I'll have to try to keep a good score, then! :sweat:

"A" all the way :pshy: :pshy: :pshy: :pshy: :pshy: :pshy: :pshy:
I think B is kind of unfair to those of us that is not so good at the games
