RE: The Judging Panel and how they keep the game fun for everyone
It becomes a question of where to draw the line.
I ran a very successful #chessmatch, where I returned about $300 to the winning players after a single game which ran for a month.
I kept the same amount in SP.
Almost all of my daily move posts were upvoted by a whale, who was also an enthusiastic player, who took home about $80, after contributing greatly to the black team's victory.
Should that game have been allowed?
I did offer to split the upvote payouts with the winners, but I also required them to beat me at chess (which they did quite soundly).
I would suggest seeking out a sponsor and setting fixed rewards like the way #openmic does. That way the payout of the post does not incentivise further contribution and upvoting to increase the pool.
