Updated
This morning I restarted point generation, you may not notice much difference in the points you receive right now, however things will continue to be shifting around as time continues.
Also, point generation is at this point completely up to date. If you go back and count you'll see that there is a point batch for every day in the month even if they were ran on the wrong day. In future months we'll no longer have a big delay waiting on budgeting, and we can expect the points generated to shift day to day to accommodate changes.
Finally, I think everyone will appreciate the new display in the rewards point log, It's now per-day instead of per-project-per-day. You can click on the details link and see the breakdown per project.
As usual there is always a chance that something could be off with the new code, I'll be keeping an eye on it and respond to any issues as they arise.
Have a good week,
Kaelten
Happy Friday everyone.
We all love our Curse Author Reward Points, and there's some good news. The system is being reworked, upgraded and made fancier, however that means that points will be not be generated for a few days.
When the upgrades are complete, any missing point generations will be run.
There have also been a few erroneous point generations, and once the system does restart, there may be lower points for the first little bit to make up for those point generations.
Also, authors should note that the system will be more dynamic to accurately reflect addon popularity.
Sorry for any inconvenience that this causes, but rest assured that the system will be up and running again soon.
Now there's some more good news for everyone. There have been some changes to the back end of the site to speed things up. You may have noticed the site being more responsive. That's due to quite a few back end optimizations that have been worked on over the past week or so.
Another new feature that has been released to everyone is project based forums. These were in beta for quite some time, but have now been opened up to everyone. You should be able to access them via a link in the project management section, or something like http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/projectname/forum/edit/
Take care and have a great weekend.
