I have finished loading the credits system on the site. Right now I only have it configured on the fixed width theme, I will be setting it up on the Fluid width theme soon.

If you look at the top of the page, you will see how many credits you have. There will be "paychecks" given weekly to active members, credits given for posts, threads, reputation, etc. I will list up an complete list soon. There is a bank for loans and handling your checking and savings. There will be lottery drawings where you can pick your own numbers. And sooo much more.

Give me a moment to work through all the settings and I will give out more info.

I will also be setting it up that it will cost you credits to play the games, but you will win credits for getting 1st, 2nd or 3rd place. There will also be credits awarded for tournaments.

This sounds good Tim.

It's reads to me as an enticement for active all round participation by being awarded paychecks/points for such. Looking forward to the list.

I also like the idea of costing credits to play arcade. That way they have to earn something to play as opposed to the free for all that had been in effect. Which brings me to my next question:

Our on-going problem with drawing some of the multitude of arcade players that join and only play arcade games because they can. Countless new members that don't reflect in numbers on the posting forum. We see it on a daily basis. 16 members online (9 posting - 7 arcade/playing game).

Question is: What are we doing to entice these members to post, even if sometimes?
Could you include that they must be posting members in order to play arcade?

Perhaps you have included something like that, i dunno, but just want to understand better.

Ok the Credits system has been changed to Tokenz....

Now every time a member registers, they will receive 100 tokenz.

To play in the arcade, they need to buy a pass that costs 50 tokenz. Then it cost 5 tokenz per play. The cost of the game goes towards the games jackpot. This jackpot is paid out depending how you score. 1st place wins 100% of the jackpot, 2nd place wins 50% and so on until 5th place. Anything under 5th place pays 0%.

Now to get tokenz...

You are also awarded 250 tokenz when you are promoted to VIP status...

Basically the system is unlimited in what it can do...

If you go to your bank, you can put some of your tokenz in your savings account where it will earn interest. If you find you are low on tokenz, you can take a loan out (with interest) and make monthly payments... but don't miss a payment, it will cost you a 50 token late fee.
