Referral Contest Prizes?

[Patrick]

What prizes do you guys like to get for referring your friends? I'm thinking about having a contest at rescreatu, so I wouldn't mind hearing your opinions.

the prizes should probably be a unique rare creatu like the Kioka and as well as some TU like 500k

I think prizes such as customized items or something for referring the most users would be the best bet... Like say if you refer 500 new members you'd get an item that only users that have referred 500 members will have... Just a though it could be done for every 100 members a user has referred.

i think you should have a referal week lol... everytime you refer someone new you get a cool prize that will only be availabe for that week xD and for like every 5 referals you get a rare prize lol and when you get to like 100 you get like a kioka egg

Some interesting ideas being tossed around in here. All of them pretty spectacular! I think having an over all winner win something very snazzy would be a big draw. (Like a Plushie on the site or something perhaps?)

Then more 'common' prizes for each 100 mark maybe? I say common because who know, the Rescreatu members may surprise us!! *keeps her fingers crossed*

For those who are bit more hard pressed for referrals, maybe Tu prizes for 15/25/50/75 marks?

This is a great idea Patrick, and way to go for opening up for input from the users of this forum!

Sounds like some people are fishing for Kioka and tu :P
I don't think you should offer tu as a reward - it's just asking for abuse and people to create multiple accounts. Don't offer a rare Creatu either, because that's also something people would be willing to cheat to get. I would suggest a type of pack, similar to the premium packs already offered. Set up a referral pack with one of a kind items only available to those who refer a certain amount of people. There could also be a trophy for their profiles :)

I would say tu and a random item or such for a few referrals and after so many referrals have some special item/items only obtainable through the referral system. Or maybe a referral shop that you can only shop in if you have obtained referral points. :)

I like the idea of a trophy and maybe a special item you can only get through that. I think Creatu will only cause hurt feelings, and Tu would just lead to rampant abuse.

[Lewis]

Yeah, You want people to kinda get the money on their own, so i agree - trophy and a refferal pack.

There's always people that cheat on referral systems but they always get caught in the end. It's nothin new in the virtual pet site industry.. Cheat and get beat that's how it is. Cheaters get busted.

That's a great idea. I like it. A referral week would be nice for Rescreatu and it could reset like every Sunday or it could be just a once a month thing. It could be a huge thing or it could be a huge flop. It all depends on the players.
