From March 5 to March 11, the platform will run the Donation Race - a donation event between Realms. During this period, all donations sent to Realms will be counted.
At the end of the event, the three Realms with the highest total donations will become the winners.
How the event works
All confirmed donations received by Realms during the event are included in the total. The Realms that collect the highest total donations during this period will win.
Often the final result is decided not only by big donations,
but also by the overall support of the community.
Event period
Donations sent from March 5 to March 11 (inclusive) are counted.
Only confirmed transactions during this period will be included.
Bonus for donors - Biggest donation
The user who makes the largest single donation during the event will receive: A personal video message from the Realm they supported.
If two donations have the same amount, the earlier transaction wins.
Counting rules
• only confirmed donations are counted
• canceled or unconfirmed transactions are excluded
• final results are determined based on system data after the event ends
The three Realms with the highest total donations will be announced as winners after March 11.
This will lead to the participants making posters and papers asking for donations which makes the site look not real anymore.
The site will also earn a percentage from each donation. I do not say this is wrong but it can make the impression earning more money is the whole point of the contest.
I won’t spoil anybodies fun here. This is my only remark on that and I think I will just not participate in that contest and will only post some nice screenshots or videos.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
The idea of the event is simply to add a bit of fun for a few days. Participation is completely optional for both Realms and users.
No one is expected to actively promote donations or change the usual atmosphere of the site.
It’ll be interesting to watch whether this contest will be able to create the same enthusiam from the community as previous ones. I should buy some popcorn.
The managers collect a share, too, don’t they? Maybe they’ll come up with fresh, new, self-degrading things for the participants to do, in order to make it rain.
Will you, together with the results, also publish the amounts of the top donations? Some self-aggrandizing machos may want to display their financial potency. Some poor, love-sick simps may donate more than they can afford. Maybe you should have announced this earlier in advance. How long does it take to sell a kidney, anyway?
Also, using Grossy for the contest banner clearly gives her an unfair advantage. Other participants might sue you.
