Does anyone know what actions get you more peices of eight
The answer is: for the moment, we only know it has to do with submitting reviews, games, extras, screenshots and translations.

What do you get for uploading games?
You're like the fourth person who asks the same thing in this topic. We don't know, OK?

Quote:
and do you get more for a larger games? or a better review? or a popular game?
The first certainly not. Second and third are very unlikely at best.

Until today I knew how many pieces I got for what actions Since last night - I do not know ... Now I got 9 at the end of the number - anyone have a thought where did it came from? Old translations have been taken to count?

What I counted about getting my pieces:
Quiz - 5 (everyone knows that :P )
Upload/review/screenshots - 50
review/screenshot (without upload) - probably 45

We could make our list if anyone can notice how much he/she earned for extras, box-shots, translations or other stuff that gives us Abandonian money

Bob, you will make yourself crazy trying to figure that out. I gave up.

Box shots and screen shots refer to the whole set and not each individual file, correct? I assume that is why you have defined a range. Thanks for that info.

Looks like a review, with archive, screen shots, box shots and manuals can be anywhere from 85 to 180.

The main problem is that we have not gave credits for documents extras. Easier part is to give it in future, but we must detect who had submited it formerly!
I will try to find former contributors!
