How are contributions

  How are contributions determined , accumulated , earned , added in an individual CC members CC stats ?

  For instance : player 1 plays 10 - to 15 CC tourneys per week .

  his contrbutions = 30,000

                           player 2 played 1 CC tourney in 2 months .

  his contributions = 70,000

  Etcetera , etcetera there are more examples .

  How does this work ?

  Player 2 has a good arguement against being removed from the CC for non participation .

  Contributions exceed 80% of rest of members .

  Although participation is # 1 criteria  , many do emphasize the contributions as being very key .

  As an owner being fair is also very important .

  Participation is going to weigh the most always .

  I just need an explanation as to where these points come from .

  It seems as though there is no rhyme or reason to them . One day , the first game of the day will reward you with 1100 points . The next day the first game of the day will reward you 233 points . There seems to be anything but consistancy to them .

  What you have described is a player using CC passes in non CC events...said player is still contributing to his/her CC.

  You got your CDP (consecutive days played) bonus (880) on this game.

  On this one you did not.

  I will coincide using my pass to receive the CDB - well usually but on 2 consecutive days it means little lol.

  Base your decisions around activity on whether the player participates in CC events, not the XP contributions. XP's really mean little as WGT missed the mark on this, but any player who plays on WGT should IMHO, spend at least some time playing in CC events or with fellow members.

  As for being fair, as the owner you need to set the parameters, and let your members know what these are

  Maybe using the first game of the day was not a good way to make my point / inquiry .

  Could be the third game , don't use CC pass , receive 1100 points . Next game use CC pass , receive 233 , next game use CC pass 111 points . 

  Notwithstanding the CDP's , why are the points all over the place ?

  ".said player is still contributing to his/her CC."

  Contributing is not enough . Participation is the main criteria in this CC .

  " XP's really mean little as WGT missed the mark on this, "

  No doubt .

  "As for being fair, as the owner you need to set the parameters, and let your members know what these are"

  Thank you . I do that with no problem .

  Thx for your input guys . Hope you don't mind my combining your quotes . ( Saves space lol ).

  That should be your focus then, why bring the XP up at all?

   

  Seems you know what you want, just enact/enforce it:)

  Well it is the timing, if you want to get more XP's use the pass with the CDP, be it the 1st or last game of the day. The CDP is only paid out once a day.

  ZioMio:

  use the pass with the CDP

  Pardon my obvious ignorance . I could really care less about any points . I am trying to find out why and what and when they are awarded for .

  In your last statement :

  ZioMio:

  use the pass with the CDP, be it the 1st or last game of the day.

  How do you know when your CDP is going to be paid ? You said "be it the 1st or last game of the day ."

  One would think it would be the 1st but I guess not . 

  Also

  "That should be your focus then, why bring the XP up at all?"

  Because like I said many people seem to place alot of value and leverage on these points .I am currenly deliberating removing a member who has contributed 70,000 points and only played 1 tourney .

  That's why I brought it up and damn glad I did . You guys have been very helpful with what I have decided to do about that issue .

  I still have no idea what's up with the point system 

  Don't suppose I ever will .

  Thanx

  You see the green check mark indicates that I've played today. My next day is in 22hour and 24 minutes. So I will not get another CDP until the 22H 24M reaches 0H 0M and the green check mark turns to a red exclamation mark.

  Look at your's and figure out how yours relates to your local time. That is the time your new day starts.

  Lol whatever I already knew that . Ok so the next game after the red exclamation mark gives you your CDP's .
