How do you get more than 1 star above that bar ? ie 2 or 3 ?

Stars are awarded at (n*3000)+100 rep.

 

2 bronze is 6100, 3 is 9100 and so on.

 

Silver represents 5, 9, 12 and 14 stars

 

Gold is 15, something, something, darkside stars.

 

You have 1 bronze and a full bar, so you have between 6000 - 6099 rep. Not much to go for your second star. [if I've worked out the limits properly... which judging from this thread I haven't.]

 

 

Le EDIT: Yup... that isn't right.

 

6000 - 6299 [i think]

Well, I would give you some rep but I need sweeties and none have arrived

The sweeties are being stockpiled for a big mail-out when we take the placeholder page down and launch the new website. This is very close, so you won't have to wait much longer.

@X-13 I could just tell you the math us uses but that would ruin the fun I think

[CAM]

But what about going in the red? Do we get black stars?

People have to love you

Or you tell a lot of very silly jokes

[X-13]

Do we get black stars?

 

No.

 

I tried "Platinum", "Plat", "White" and "Black" when I found the gold star. [i also tried "Lonestar"...]

 

I don't think the admins want to reward bad behaviour too much.

 

@ZeroHour I don't want the answer. But, am I on the right track? [i know it's currently not right.]

 

 

Le EDIT: wait... I AM sort of right. Dots shown aren't what you HAVE, they're what you're working on.

 

I'm on 11, 705 so I'm working toward the last dot before I get a 4th star at 12,000. Each gold is 300 so I should have 295 more to go. [Possibly 296 if you need to be working on the next set of dots for the star to show.]

Thank's @DaveP - added an extra star

I was going to check it, but I thought a red star would be too much like he bronze one.

[john]

Oh... I was actually pretty close.

 

You get gold for breaking 45k rep. [i originally guessed 48k.]

 

 

Gray - 0

1lg - 100

2lg - 200

3lg - 300

4lg - 400

5lg - 500

1gd - 1800

2gd - 2100

3gd - 2400

4gd - 2700

1b - 3100

33100

3s - 36100

39100

4s - 42100

 

1g - 45100

 

The numbers are the upper limit for that representation. E.G - 1b is actually 3001 - 3100

 

 

Now, I'm off to lunch... I may work it out properly later.

Someone has FAR too much free time I think we need to work this guy harder!

Work smart, not hard.

 

 

 

Plus, I was working on this problem during lunch. Lunch is MY time, so I can legitimately spend it working on math problems. [Or playing MH3U when I finally get my copy...]

Cos that's how we roll !! lol

Also, you think I'm spending too much time on this... Wait until I've cracked it.

 

I'm going to take a stab at working out the relationship between rep points and rep power. [i know it's something to do with join date, posts and rep points. Perhaps also the "thanked x times in y posts"]

[elsiegee40]

I vaguely recall ZH saying many moons ago, that the calculations didn't only involve the rep you received, but they also involved the length of time that you had been posting.

I know, that's why I'm including the join date as a variable.

I can hear ZH chuckling over this thread from the other side of the country! Just remember to ask for commission when you've worked out a more elegant solution to the formula he's actualy using

Saying that, I had a thought along those lines yesterday.

 

Either I'm going to work it out and it's a lot more complex than it needs to be or it'll end up far more simple.

 

Or equally complex, just different.
