A couple of weeks ago, we elicited people’s thoughts on how we can improvement engagement for our Post of the Month, Compliment of the Month, and Non-Compliment Comment of the Month Contest. Here’s the post where opinions were posted.
People’s feedback was closely considered, and one of the biggest issues was that there were far too many nominations from which to choose at once.
Our Decision
Starting tomorrow, I’m going to create a post for each week of nominations (2 nominations per category) where people can vote between the two in each category. For each week, people can vote between 2 posts, 2 compliments, and 2 comments. Easy peasy.
These posts will be considered “semi-finals” and the final post, the “final,” will contain the winners of each week, thus culminating in 4 finalists per category (posts, compliments, and comments).
For the semifinals, I’ll give people to opportunity to cast their vote directly in the post, or within a poll created on Threads. Versatility and options never hurt!
Follow-up Questions to the Community
Now, my question to the community: should I tag all of our inaugural members for each semifinal post (to get a wider breadth of participation), or should I just leave the posts untagged so that whomever comes across it can vote?
Furthermore, should we allow people who voted in the semifinals to also vote in the finals?
Conclusion
We’ve decided upon a way to reorganize our contest to increase engagement in voting for our nominees! Please let me know your thoughts so that we can improve this process as much as possible.
What do you think of the proposed formatting and semifinal posts for this contest? Should we tag our inaugural members in each semifinal post? Should people who vote in semifinals be able to to vote in the finals? Do you have any other ideas to help people engage more in voting on the nominees in this contest?
I would love to hear any and all opinions about these topics from everyone who is currently a member of FreeCompliments, since you’re all inaugural members! Anyone else who finds this page is also very welcome to voice their opinion. We’re all about free speech, and everyone’s experience has value.
More posts with further ideas incoming soon!
