Gamification Calibration

This is a query that replicates the Gamification scores and gives a breakdown of who got what and why:

-- [params]
-- date :start_date
-- date :end_date
-- int :day_visited_score_value = 1
-- int :time_read_score_value = 1
-- int :posts_read_score_value = 1
-- int :posts_created_score_value = 2
-- int :topics_created_score_value = 5
-- int :likes_received_score_value = 1
-- int :likes_given_score_value = 1
-- int :solutions_score_value = 10
-- int :flag_created_score_value = 10
-- int :user_invited_score_value = 10

There is a drift to the scores the longer the timeframe as the proper Gamification version rounds out things like Time and Posts read on a daily basis, whereas this will tally up and include all the remainders. However, it is still quite useful to check out what any changes to your scoring defaults would look like without having to test it out by recalculating all of your site’s live scores.

It also doesn’t include anyone in the @staff group, though this is easy enough to change if you want to. :+1: :slight_smile:

Depending on the size of your site, you may need to reduce the timescale or groups you target to stop it from timing out.

Just to note, I think this one has gone a little stale.

It needs the new reactions and chat scoring added, as well as an update to use the new Solved tables.

I’m not sure when I’ll get chance to look at it in more detail/update it, but I think the base is still relatively solid if anyone wants to use it for inspiration. :+1:
