I'm seeing a lot of misinformation about The Final Multiplier, so let me clarify for y'all here!
1) This multiplier only applies to unclaimed STARS and not unclaimed credits.
For example, if Prover A used all their credits and had 100 unclaimed stars, they would get 885 stars. But if Prover B has 20 credits remaining and had 10 stars, they would only get 88 stars. Their remaining credits do NOT get auto redeemed.
This means that the multiplier applies only on stars that people worked hard to get!
2) The outcome of this multiplier was truly random. It's the exact same multiplier that y'all have been using for the past few months, and the same multiplier if you clicked the button yourself. The 8.85x was just luck of the draw. Theoretically it could have been 1.23x, it could have been 3.50x, or any other number. I guess our luck was up pretty high last night :)
3) The other option was a flat multiplier for everyone's unclaimed stars, which would have been a lot less work for me. But I put up a poll for the people to decide, and the people decided to gamble a random multiplier on it! So to make y'all happy, we held an event to roll the multiplier and had some fun while we were at it!
4) Staff stars have been deleted from the leaderboard. Succinct staff are not part of the testnet leaderboard, so the "97k" number you see is only for fun purposes. We have reserved the leaderboard for y'all and only y'all.
That being said, I want to make sure we encourage a fun and healthy environment. We've seen some negative behavior yesterday on the Discord due to people misinterpreting how the multiplier applied. To reiterate my point, we've made sure it's as fair as possible and a fun event for everyone!
Keep proving <3
