Description
I just stumbled over the following sticker / card designs from/in @mwarning's chaos sticker collection, which I believe is inspired by the board game (Die Siedler von) Catan:
And I love the idea! I think it would be nice if the map could determine which node owner, determined by the contact info, would get which achievement. An achievement icon/badge should then be displayed on a node's details page. Or on an extra tab (or on the statistics tab?).
More exclusive card ideas would be:
- Longest multihop ring
- (Oldest node in the network - would like to reward people who are longtime supporters of Freifunk, but maybe controversial, would encourage keeping outdated/deprecated devices, which would be harmful for the network. Though maybe the "part of the network" age could be inherited by a new node with the same name as the old one for this particular achievement?)
- (Oldest accumulated age of a cluster - same concerns as above.)
- Longest radio link: add bronze, silver and gold, bronze for a bad link quality, gold for a green/good link quality etc.)
- Highest k-Zusammenhang
- Highest k-Zusammenhang times "sum of all link distances of this cluster" (to encourage not only putting many devices in the same room for a high k-Zusammenhang, but to also spread them)
- Highest sum of all link distances of a cluster
- Node with the most clients, averaged per week
- Cluster with the most clients, averaged per week
- A device closest to the townhall / parliament, the democratic decision making center of a city or region
- Longest link distance to the device closest to the townhall
- Longest multihop path to the device closest to the townhall
- Node with the longest uptime since last firmware release
- Node with the longest accumulated uptimes, which were each with the latest firmware release at that time
- Device with the most antennas / highest MIMO count
The number of victory points should be proportional to its usefulness for the network overall
There should also be non-exclusive achievements, like for example:
- Being part of the network for x months/years
- For a node having/providing an uplink
- For a node providing a geo location
- For a node providing contact information
- A device that uses the latest WiFi standard
- A device that uses the beta or even experimental autoupdater branch
- A device that provides an uplink and is x86? - offloader? Or specific other devices with a fast CPU + uplink?
There might also be negative achievements, "bane points", which reduce the number of victory points. Examples:
- A device deprecated in Gluon
- Outdated firmware (the older the more bane points?)
- Oldest firmware (many bane points)
- Node with the longest uptime that is larger than the last firmware release date
- (Disabled autoupdater? Only if firmware is actually outdated?)
- Most dense cluster (if >2 devices, number of devices times 1/(sum of link distances in cluster)? - Edit, or: "amount of nodes in cluster"*log_2("mean link distance between nodes in cluster")), for positive and negative victory points combined?
- Outside of the community's boundaries
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No, just for fun :-). And some small gamification to encourage people to set up nodes and to enhance the overall network.
