So, who remembers the Great Boinng Game? Don't know what I'm talking about? Go visite http://www.boinng.com/game

A week ago, the game turned one year old, a year in which 5 tasks have been assigned by me and carried out by you lot. And now finally, you'll understand why you've been going through all that trouble!

So here it comes : I'm integrating the GBG into the Boince scoring system of the site (http://www.boinng.com/story/the-boince-starts-here)!

Remember the Boince? It was a clumsily introduced feature whereby you got to collect boince for every article you posted, or comment, or poll etc... only it was rubbish because I applied it retrospectively, so most people were separated by about 10,000 boince each with unassailable leads... well, not anymore.

I've just reset all the boince to a big fat zero.

Well the success of the Boinng Game in keeping this place going for the last week or so got me to thinking... and the result is Boince for everybody!

Boince is the new currency of Boinng. Like all the best currencies (of certain developing states) it can't actually be exchanged for goods or services, and it has no monetary value whatsoever, but it's real easy to earn! For every story or feature article you submit you now get 5 juicy boince in your virtual back pocket. Blogs, forum topics, and polls all earn you 3, comments are worth 2, and adding a piccie gets you 1 too.
