HI EVERYONE, Sorry for taking so long to respond to this! This was a little bit of a strange change, and I wanted to see how it went out before I made any tweaks to it. You should see the amount of QPs increase over the course of this week.

The prize structure of the "new quests" meant that newer quests (or quests that had been turned over to the new system more recently) gave more points than the ones first moved to the new system. That means knowing that (or having observed that) you had a 1/3 chance with some quests, 1/5 with others, 1/7 with others, and 1/9 with others. So I ripped all of that out (since now most quests give QPs) and made it across the board and started high, because I wanted to see how many went out a day with a unified system.

It looks like I started way too high, and I just pushed a change to make it a little bit lower, and I'll continue to tweak it throughout the week. This wasn't really a response to people having too many of them, but too many going out if you did all of the quests available on the site per day. I do need to find a middle ground on people who only do one set of quests (or fewer) and people who do all of the quests (maybe make it a little bit harder with each one you earn, but not that much - a slight decay in chances) but I'm going to work on that as we go forward :)

(I also like the idea of a "maximum" amount of points you can hold at a time!)

[edit]

Also, another (actually good!) change made here. Because all of the currency prize code was separate per quest before, only some of them gave out more QPs during the weekend special quest. Now all of them have a unified QP prize structure and give out more QPs on the weekend :)!

Still performing multiple tests right now :) I've split users into three groups, with different odds (And one with hard set odds) to see how that performs.

Oh, I guess I didn't mention in my most recent post that it's been rotating people through the groups until now everyone has ended up in the 1:5 pool which I found to be the most fair.

Still watching how it ends up, but this should be the last big change to them for awhile :)
