Eine neue Erweiterung wurde veröffentlicht: Member of the Month

Zitat:Description
This plugin allows you to setup a collaborative environment where some users can vote and rewards people who contribute significantly in the last month. As an administrator, you can define which user groups will be allowed to express their preferences.
In the last week of each month, users are allowed to express their feelings and to start to give some points for other friends. Based on these points a predefined task (which runs on the first day of each month) will build a top and assign rewards. As rewards, we have integration with NewPoints.

How It Works
Bonus Factor
This chapter explains how bonus factor feature works. The plugin comes up with a setting which allows specifying a bonus factor depth. In fact, the setting lets the system to look into history stats and to give awards multiplicated when a user has consecutive appearances there. Let's assume that you set the value of this setting to 3 (months) and the history for a user U is the following one:July (current month) - User U obtained 2nd place in the top
June (from history) – User U obtained 3rd place in the top
May (from history) – User U no prize obtained
April (from history) – User U obtained 1st place in the top
In this case, the bonus factor will be calculated as:
BF = 1 [for July as current month] + (1 / (1 + 3 [the place obtained])) [for June] + 0 [for May]
BF = 1 + ¼  = 1.25
If integration with NewPoints is enabled and the 2nd place should receive 50 points, then the number of points received in this case will be 62.5 (50 x 1.25). 
Let’s analyze another scenario. The setting is still on 3 months but we have another user (J) with the following stats:July (current month) – User J obtained 1st place
June (from history) – User J obtained 3rd place
May (from history) – User J obtained 1st place
April (from history) – User J obtained 1st place
March (from history) – User J obtained 3st place
In this case, the bonus factor will be calculated as:
BF = 1 [for July as current month] + (1 / (1 + 3 [the place obtained])) [for June] + (1 / (1 + 1 [the place obtained])) [for May]
BF = 1 + ¼ + ½ =1.75
If integration with NewPoints is enabled and the 1st place should receive 100 points, then the number of points received in this case will be 175 (100 x 1.75).
