Kingdom of Knuffel

It's curious indeed.
Strange even.
I don't know, I would love asking starkad - but he's never around the forum, and it's not important enough to dare send a PM...

Yeah....

The other thing to do is, I know we started this to find out the rates when the Caravan *isn't* here, but let's ask more people to record their statistics for the duration of the actual visit.

Maybe I'm not the only one experiencing this, but we haven't caught it because everyone just assumes the one post = one donut thing is 100% accurate and we haven't caught on to how the post count (or donut count) might be regularly thrown off....

Real Life Mysteries. They aren't as exciting as detective stories but my curiosity gets piqued just the same!

Alright, let's see how much of a fluke the weirdness is.

Now that we have a new Candy Caravan event to compare with.

Apparently I've made 5 posts (announcement, hangout and chats) and eartned 5 donuts.
So here they seem to count normally.

So, started with 2 donuts. 7 posts later I have 10 donuts. Is my math crazy? That should be 9 donuts, right?
I'm missing something and will probably make a fool of myself...

Edit!
Made 5 more posts, but got 6 more donuts.

I'm for sure going crazy. I'm not on great terms with mathematics.

I think that was what Akili Li was after!
Just out of curiosity, in which subforums have you posted?
Maybe it's the charities subforum? You are a regular there after all...

Post count: 1003
Donuts: 58

21 posts, 29 donuts

So mine have definitely gone up more than my post count as well. At one point I got 4 donuts for one post.

I post in avatar and knuffel, hangouts, chats, and music and TV, but truthfully what I think is happening is that the donut event you get during regular posting all month is still triggering underneath the one donut you get from posting during the caravan.

That would be why I got 4 donuts: 1 from my post, and then I got that "you got three donuts from posting" event underneath it.
