Hey Nikki - sorry if that sounded unduly directed towards you. I meant 'wrong-headed' just to mean that I think people's interpretation and understanding needed to shift. Sorry if it came across that way :) I don't really understand the rest of what you said :/ People with only one character, in principle could earn just as many points. People with multiple characters were doing a lot of work. They wrote about 3-4 times as many posts as you did, and so I don't think about it so much as saying that one-character people are disadvantaged, so much as it's just rewarding them.
But I do hear you - the system could be improved, and we certainly will take all of this into consideration next time :)
