This new point system is a great new aproach!! Love the 'status titles' and badge ideas!!! Not to mention the availability to have a CAMEO in the story!! So cool!!!!!!

This looks great (and the badges are awesome...I can't wait to get to Supplicant, that one's my favorite). Did you ever decide if we'll be able to keep our badges if we spend our points? Thanks!

By 'story question' do mean just a general question about the story that will be answered, or a bonus story request like what had been done before?

I don't know if I want to move on to Postulant. I rather like the Devotee badge. Then again, the supplicant is kind of neat too.

Will you be adding the unanswered bonus story questions from the old system to the voting menu? It's looking awfully empty now...

Do you mean "skip the voting process" or "skip the queue entirely?" (For the -200 point story-buys for us high rollers)

Do each of the temples (gods) have their own symbol?

I wanted to know what this "give points" button is at the bottom of each comment. Is it part of the new system? What does it do? Please excuse me if these questions are totally obvious

So, I just obtained a new status (and I got my e-mail to indicate that I'm now a Postulant), but my badge hasn't updated. I don't mind, but I thought this was something that got updated automatically, not something you updated by hand. I was actually planning on testing the system by giving away 2 points or so to see if my badge would stay the same, but it didn't change when I leveled up. Any ideas?

Is this where I would gripe about my shiny red Postulant badge? I used to have the nifty green Supplicant one and my points are still registering in the upper 4's I don't think I ever got a Supplicant upgrade email, either, but I know I had the badge for a while.

think this would work out as well as it did. It really has motivated me to comment more in both the forum and the story comments. Now I read things, and instead of just thinking things about them to myself, I actually contribute to/harass the forum. I don't know if it's worked out that way for anyone else, I just thought I'd share.

of the draft version ebook. Where do we get it? I didn't know if this had changed with recent updates, but I thought it would be interesting to see.

I was wondering, since I received an e-mail a while back about receiving the Petitioner Badge, how long till it shows up next to my posts like everyone else? am I missing something?

# User kawaiikune lost 2 points Total now is 799 points.
# Embodiment badge removed from user.

So, you do lose your badge if you lose the points

# User kawaiikune lost 2 points Total now is 799 points.

when I last leveled up. I think I skipped 800 points! It looked like it just went from 799 to 801. Can someone else verify that?

Also, getting to 1000 points officially doesn't break the system.

What exactly is the "voting process" for bonus stories? I mean, I get that we pay points to vote for them, but how does that translate into them being written? Do they need a certain number of points before the move into the queue, or is it the one with the most points at a given time, or what? Would voting for a story more than once get it onto the queue faster? I'm curious!

I had thought we might be able to spend more than one point to vote for the same story multiple times.
The system does not currently support that.
Is that as you had desired?

so we have to be at the top level in order to ask for a cameo huh? that serverly docks points then holy...but how many points must we have for a bouns story?

I notice all the points story and voting references have been taken out. Is that just while you're on hiatus, or a more semi-permanent thing?
