Bonus Reviewing


<< Thread Modifed July 18 at 11:40PM >>

Hey, how many reviews does a story in the bonus 50% chance of winning a cert get before it ends? I thought it was two, but lately I've seen some weird things. Some posts still in the bonus round after seven reviews. Does promoting higher extend the bonus round?

RE: Bonus Reviewing

I may be wrong, but I don't think it has anything to do with number of reviews.

As far as I know, all prose pieces have a 50% chance of supplying a bonus MCP (Member Cent Pump) Oldtimers will remember that it used to be 25% (same as poetry) but it was rightly suggested that revie wing prose was themore difficult/time consuming and the site upped the ante to help get more reviews for prose.

So, my belief is that the reviewing lottery continues for as long as the piece is on the listing and that depends on the original certificate the author 'purchased.'

Now you have me questioning what I thought I knew! I've tried checking and easily found a story with 4 reviews that was still offering the bonus, but confirming what I said is more difficult. The site Q&A is somewhat out of date and doesn't even mention this bonus.

if you really want to know, you might have to flick a query to Tom (from the Community Menu) He's usually pretty good at getting back to you.




RE: Bonus Reviewing
Just a guess - since we're all over the world, it is possible that seven people clicked on the bonus post around the same time and possibly got a bonus pump.
