| Maybe a way of adding a bonus for completing a whole game from 0 to 200 or 1-1000 during a challenge would be an intriging bonus to a challenge. |

Probably more challenge points for people to get the HTTK badges. |

Speaking as someone with just over 9k in gamerscore, and zero of the real easy GS games on my card...sure! Put in bonus points for completing games and you will be amazed how many I burn through in one day to rack up over 10k challenge points.
It does however, encourage people to always be in a challenge. |

| More challenge points would be good, but maybe a bonus score outside of the normal gamerscore. Something like an extra 50 or 100 for completing a 1000 point game and an extra 10 or 15 for a 200 point game. A seperate colum with bonuses that can beadded to the final score of the challenge. |

| there could be other bonuses if there were a subcatagory for bonuses besides just completing a game during a challenge. Bonus for compelting a new release or a bonus earning a new badge or an upgrade during a challenge (not good for those with a lot). |

Guys, if you think about this, it's only going to create hassle. When 360v doesn't pick up the final GS on the last day or the fact that a game is complete, then people will start to moan that they havn't got their bonus. Also a number of members here track only their gamerscore, and like to keep their settings private.
Challenge points are quite fair and have worked over the past 6 months or so. Let's not add/fix a system that isn't broken, eh?

I have no arguement that things aren't fine with the challenges, in fact I love the challenges as they are, but thought it might add a little incentive to try and complete a game during a challenge rather than get 500 points here and 130 there.
It would not effect the the gamerscores, but could be a subcatagory of the overall point totals during a challenge.
It doesn't have to be a large bonus, but an incentive to finish during a challenge.
What could be intriguing is if the creater of the challenge could have the option of using the bonuses or not. |
