Starting sometime mid-january, I plan to try to start doing weekly feature giveaways. One week might be a 10 dollar, next might be 60 dollar, etc. It will be random, and only the winner will be told the amount.
I want to try to work this in a fun, different mechanical way. I am looking for some suggestions as to how a winner could be picked. The theory would need to be well thought out, and out of the box. I might post an idea or two myself, but for now, I am looking for some.
The idea that we go with gets the first weeks giveaway, and I will be keeping record, and a player cannot win twice within "X" giveaways.
So the system, would need to incorporate a lot of levels of structure.
I thank everyone who submits ideas, even if they get denied, I just feel more love giving to the Ecc community then giving to myself is all. Many people cannot afford features, are having a bad week, and I feel these giveaways could give them that strength to put on their big girl panties, suck it, and realize they are stronger than the weight upon their shoulders.
<3 you all, and thank you for making my Ecc experience so amazing so far!

id say that it should be a number point system, but nah, cuz of the big chance it would go to someone whos rich irl. i think that it could just be pres below, and based on... hmmm... idk. sometimes the word of mouth or the gut feeling can be best. It's hard for restrictions and biases to be unimplemented into a system. those who have too many features shouldnt probably join, like 2 dollar and below could be allowed (im not sure how that system works lol) oof

Maybe get a book, any book, random number generate the Page number, then generate a whatever-th word, say 68th and find that word on that Page, take the first letter and whoevers IGN starts with that, wins? That seems like it would be fair though... How about something where you.... Frick, drawing a blank... Lol.

Alright so what we got so far is a random number generator to pick a player and the amount they win- sounding good, but what about who the players in the pot will be (or should it be anyone who logged on during some point, or should they do a lil application- applications are boring). It can’t be opinion based either (like one person/ a group choosing who gets in) it’ll get hate and backlash and not the point in this act of kindness. So how else- that’s what’s annoying me

I'd say keep it interesting, a new way every week something like
Week 1: Merit system, notices who's helpful to other players
Week 2: RNG
Week 3: Who can write the best short story
Week 4: Maybe a scavenger hunt in game
So on and so forth, keeping it interesting allows for a bit of extra fun with it :)-

I really like the idea of doing like mini quests or whatnot to determine the winner, I like the ones suggested cause it gives the lower ranked people or people without features a chance to win. I feel like everyone, no matter their rank or how many features they have, should be included in this.
I’m really surprised you’re doing this. I seen a couple others start doing weekly feature giveaways and this is such a selfless act to brighten up someone’s day. Thank you for even considering to do something like this! <3-

Okay, so everyone. Let's do a pick for "Any" feature 20$ or lower, then I might try to swing another 20$ also, if I don't get stabbed by the hooman woman called wifoo. But for now, let's go with, each post can pick "1" feature, and the most "Winner" votes on it, is the one we pick, then I will figure out a cool or funny way to try to get it.

Do an application asking what feature they want and why, pick the five or so each week that have the most merit, and then do raffle from those five.

Okay, giveaway will take place sometime tonight, I plan to pick 12 semi-active players, and they will have to battle through @Frostystorm1 's suggestion! Winner will get be announced, but might get more than 20$, we will see. The winner can say the amount they got if they want! I am open to suggestions of players, maybe newer players, who might deserve this weeks giveaway. Or maybe we find some who have no features yet, what do you all think? We need 12 people, we can do with less, but 12 would be ideal.
Thank you all for the help, and you cannot nominate yourself, but feel free to nominate a friend. I am going to get back to making the almighty ecc dollar.-
