[Discussion] Culture Points and Ranks
Posted: 20 Apr 2019, 15:09
Hey everyone.
So as I said in my campaign I think it would be a good idea to take a page out of TRT and come up with a Points/Rank system for Cultural participation. I think it would be a good way to incentivize and recognize people being active in the planning, hosting and participation stages of our activities. TRT's points system works as such:
1 Point for a Story Tip (told to the Editor-in-Chief)
2 Points for Editing an Article
5 Points for Writing an Article
25 Points for an Award
Now obviously there are not the same exact steps for running a paper versus running an activity but my thinking was to have a points system like:
1 Point for participation in an activity
2 Points for proposing a new idea in the event planning area (fleshed out)
5 points for hosting an activity
I'm not sure about the creation of awards for service to be given by the Culture Officer. However I do think we should have some ranks. TRT's are based off of actual newspaper job titles and we don't have such a benefit when trying to adapt the idea here. However I think we could have things like "Cultural Icon" or "Cultural Legend" as ranks somewhere.
Anyway with that we can open up the discussion. Let me know what you think of this. If people think it's a bad idea we can scrap it, but I wanted to have this discussion anyway. Here are some guiding questions of some of the most important parts to work out:
1. Do you agree with the proposed points? What actions should earn points and what should they be worth?
2. What are your thoughts on rank titles? Do you have any suggestions?
3. Is it feasible to factor in past activities if we go live with this system?
