As a lot of you know we've had a donation poll going, for some time now, to get us enough points for an upgrade to Super Group status (on my page because only super groups can have polls on their pages). We've raised 3445 of the 4796 we need so far and as it's been going for over a year now I was thinking,
do people still want us to raise the points for that purpose?

We could alternatively use the points as part prizes for contests & group activities. We're open to ideas for contests as well, we want to keep them simple for now and not over complicate things (ie. 5 sub contests for each variation). Though we could possibly do sub categories for each different medium.

This is where I need everyones input especially those who donated:


What do you guys think we should do with the 3445 points we currently have?

:bulletred: Use them  or  :bulletyellow: keep collecting?


Keep in mind that the members that have donated did so with the intention of getting us Super so their opinions on the matter cannot be ignored.

We would reeeally appreciate everyones input on this.


EDIT

Wow guys i'm really surprised by the sudden boost in support & donations, we're only 794 points away now! I think we'll keep saving for Super then set up a new poll for the next years subscription! If the super runs out before we have reach amount we need that time we can just use them for contests etc.

Little extra note, did you know that the group turns 5 next month? Oh how to celebrate ;)

Keep your thoughts and feedback coming though guys!

Well, once you make your decision about what the points will be used for, maybe you could ask that anyone not happy with the decision could requet the donated points back, so long as they offer a screenshot of the transaction record. I thought there would be a record (apart from the anonymous donations) as there was a blog/journal showing who had donated.

I think *Sjazna has the right idea - get the supergroup then set up donation pools for other things.

Mmmmm, depends? Like if we can't keep up the super group thing it's pointless. So do you think once it's a super group that there'd be enough donations to keep the super group status?
I figure it'd probably be easier to raise points after that because like you said we'd be able to have a donation right on the group page.

And I'm gonna go dump the rest of my points in the donation thingy cause either way they'll be put to good use.
