Methodology

The final scores were determined using the following:

Total Score = Mission Score (50%) + Global Score (50%)

Mission Score: The Mission Score was calculated using the competitor’s mission XP, scaling it per role to normalize the points across the three roles.

Global Score: The Global Score was determined using the following:

Global Score = Scaled Profit Score + Scaled Farming Score

During the scaling process, Profits and Farming were assigned different weights for each role to better align with the specific objectives of each role. That is, Traders had higher weights given to profits while Operators on farming rewards. Investors were in between those two.

Participation Prizes

Officially a Kreskian NFT: 20,339 recipients, Award: One “Freshly Minted” Level-1 NFT each

Competitor NFT: 6,984 recipients, Award: One “Analyze This” Level-2 NFT each

Founders NFT: 2,812 recipients, Award: One “Enchanted Origins” Level-2 NFT each

Methodology

A competitor was eligible to receive a Competitor NFT based on participation in the game. Qualification for this NFT depended on the competitor’s mission XP rather than the total score to ensure fairness.

The eligibility criteria was calculated to be 46,000 mission XP or more. This was 70% of the maximum achievable XP over a 3-week period or 37% of the maximum achievable XP over the 6-week period.

Note on eligibility:

  • Competitor NFT: To be eligible for the Competitors NFT, we established a minimum requirement of 46,000 mission XP.

  • Founders NFT: All competitors with greater than 46k mission XP who signed up on the waitlist prior to Feb 8, 2023, at 23:59 GMT will also receive the Founders NFT. In addition, two of our Discord community mods are set to receive 2 Founders NFT each.

  • Officially a Kreskian: All participants who successfully completed the onboarding process will receive the Officially a Kreskian NFT. Participants who completed the onboarding but didn’t follow the rules are disqualified.

  • Adjusting Scores: We have rectified the mission XP for competitors who experienced issues.

The technical details of the points calculation can be found on the Kresko docs page.

Community & Bug Bounty Prizes

Award: One “Stellar Genesis” Level-2 NFT each

Participants who made valuable contributions to the Kreskian community by providing educational resources, identifying bugs, and offering support will receive the Community & Bug Bounty NFT.
