Play to Win

So I have been struggling with how do I let more people get their hands on CVW-20 merch. If for no other reason than I legitimately love the merch and I think more people who actively fly with us should probably have the ability to show off their squadron. But this merch is expensive and the simulators we play in are ALSO VERY EXPENSIVE. How do we get around this? Well I think gift cards are a pretty good option.

Basically the system I have in my head is that if you have a really good mission, you have the option to win a gift card to grab some cvw-20 merch. Kind of like a trophy. So how do we lay this out in a way that is, fun, fair, and financially sound. I have a few basic tenants that we’ll try to follow.

  1. This won’t be for every mission and the missions it will be for will be determined beforehand

  2. A point scoring rubric will be released to determine which in game actions will provide points.

  3. The winner will be determined by the point rubric AND ONLY the point rubric

  4. Participation is always optional.

  5. Confirmation will be required for points (Tacview, or recording. Required format will be available beforehand)
