1. What are community points?

The community points system was implemented as a way to reward players who are consistently active within the community.

Think of it as an out-of-game scoring system which is used to earn higher status and gain levels.

2. How do I earn community points?

Points are automatically awarded for various actions on the website.

The following table provides the details1 for point distribution:

In the course of testing and retesting the game, our team has played hundreds of games.  I know for us, reaching the mark of playing a 100 games was a nice achievement.  I know because we all celebrated that special 100th game moment!!! 

Now it's your turn:

Reach a mark of 100 games played during the beta service and we'll hook you up with the following rewards:

* A Special badge to show off to the GONG! community

* A Special ingame item, (to be determined)

* Recognition on the website 

It's a lot of effort.  Think you have what it takes?

Edit: You will recieve your rewards upon commercial launch.  Sorry for the confusion! Thanks!!
