I have. I get tempted to use it ever so often.
Participate and get a few chances to get notes. Thread of the week and gallery will get you 20 each time. Certain level up will get you bonus notes…
There is a contest right now on the site, you can try.
The thread of the week is in the year: 50 × 20 = 1000 notes.
Photo of the week, second 1000. Total 2000 notes. So theoretically, 4 people can get a $ 100 coupon during the year. You really are a champion if you have succeeded. It had to be the hardest-earned dollars in your life:wave:
.
Thanks for the good advice. You must have spent a lot of time getting it! Congratulations!
Thanks for the good advice. I wish you a nice weekend👍🏻!
And what does the “promotion path” look like in the local community? Do you have any names for the next level? I’m asking you because you are probably one of the few local “bosses” 
, who have the most experience, have won the most awards …
I would book mark it. It will be easy to find afterwards
Thank you - this is important information👍🏻.
If you look some people just have multiple accounts and use both to double their chances. You can spot it obviously here, those two similar names 9th 10th
In my opinion, something like that should be banned because it’s not fair to the other hardworking members of the community.
That is the argument some have given up to stop the leaderboard as those who win that every month are the most dedicated.
There is no singular good way, apart from prizes based on judges, talent, like photos, meaningful discussion, etc. The admins do those too. So the genuine and well intentioned folks will eventually win something anyway. e.g. your photo this week.
I’ve been on the Internet, dial-up bulletins, Usenet, before some here were born, and there’s little you can do about it. e.g. if they stopped by IP then VPN solves that.
I’ve had to travel the world and I’ve had to use VPN to get around national restrictions. The Chinese know that issue quite a lot.
100% those accounts were created not to get leaderboard. Those were created to participate in giveaway. And I think those names are default names given by system. They will disappear from leaderboard.
I know they were not for leaderboard, they were for points for other purposes. Giveaway for example, yes those have fallen off already.
But I mentioned it in the context of the leaderboard as the argument is at least a true devotee will win every month on leaderboard vs other methods where multiple win.
The talent based methods is at risk of the judge, but it’s not really as winnable by brute force methods. Those happen often so everyone has a chance.
I’m waiting for giveaway to have something I’d like… Mini 3 too like the Mini 2 I have unused in draw (prefer the Icon Mini).
I understand now why you can’t change something here.
I still have a question:
You’ve traveled the world, so you have a job.
You have a job, so you have money.
You probably live in the USA, you know modern technologies, so you probably earn good money at work. Which makes you want to spend many, many, many hours writing various comments and reviews to later
after many months, to get or not to get an electronic gadget for several dozen dollars. You could probably buy it for yourself with money earned at work.
I am asking out of curiosity, because I am fascinated by why you spend so many hours of your time here. If you had used this time in your professional work, you would have earned money for many more gadgets. It all looks like a big “electronic volunteering”
Why yes, but I’m operating 5 computers simultaneously.
What position do you work in and in what company is it not a secret?
And is this system of points and rewards also for users from Europe and Poland?
I haven’t asked about that yet, that should be my first question.
Some things are USA specific.
Am I missing something, I haven’t seen 9 and 10 post or even being active on the boards…
A new user at start of month, get 50 points then can get 5 a day just sharing a thread. They fall away no chance of leaderboard win unless they spend a month sustained effort. But there’s no reason why an individual cannot create many accounts and crowd out all the regulars for a month. As someone said recently, the thing they’d win would be worth $50-$100 and for the effort, they’d be better working instead.
You can see new members created daily here. I find it more academically interesting more than a big issue. The coding effort to be a bot to win all competitions is an interesting problem, they’ve not done it here yet as it’s not been worthwhile.

Right now a new account every minute. Hopefully individuals interested in Soundcore.
And these stamps have some meaning?
