I feel this is just a double reward for those who have the time and luck to get all the good tasks first.  For those of us who cannot get even $1 in tasks per month cus they are all taken, it just doesnt seem fair.  The top people are already getting the most out of the site in terms of cash, why should they get a second reward for being the top?  FC should really skip the gift cards and spread that amount over say...the top 10 as a small bonus earning.  This way more people might have an incentive to work on tasks and not be discouraged at the same 2-3 people winning the bonus every month.

Who needs additional incentive to do tasks?  The "incentive" is the money you'll make from doing the tasks.  The DiningDough is just icing on the cake.  It takes a lot of hard work, time and a bit of luck to reach the scoreboard.

Maybe you should go on the suggestions page and ask if they can change it to a limit of how many times you can win, or at least not be allowed to win more than two months in a row.  And the same individuals will not be allowed to win again until a few months go by and this would probably give more people the opportunity to win.  I admit, I can't really do that tasks too much, the tasks just doesn't seem to work for me.  I seem to always get a prompt telling me there is no more work for this task.

As long as the top folks are cheating some how they should be able to win every month - they are willing to put in the time. Maybe they can add a third bonus for the month's top "Rookie" the highest individual who hasn't won a prize before.


I just try to do the best I can to make some money with the tasks, not very competitive. :wave:

I agree it is totally ridiculous, I have been trying them from time to time but I either loose the patience or do not do the right thing and disqualify.  I only do tasks when I need to complete my 5 cents daily otherwise a avoid them like a plague.  I need money but not that much.

  They never let me complete a task or I should say most of the time they want too little and task to long.  So If a person is willing to sit there for hours they deserves the prize if they are first.  I do like the idea of something for thirty.

When FC came up with idea to reward the top 2 task earners for the month I did believe that this was a good idea. This would give everyone an incentive to participate more on FC and complete more tasks. However, no matter how much I participate or how many tasks I complete I will never be anywhere near the top. Also I would like to point out that if the same people win the dining prize every month it takes the fun out of this incentive for the rest of the FC Community. Hopefully everyone will continue to participate in completing tasks, and whoever won the task prize last month and the month before that do not win it this mont  I y


i AGREE  I find some of these tasks really  hard    t do    I only  do the easy tasks :notworthy:

Even if you make it on to the leader board, the available tasks will soon disappear and no amount of cookie/cache clearing will help. Can't get to the top if there are no tasks to do!

I stand corrected, it seems like we will have a new winner for the top task earner this month. I don't mind if I never win the top prize or the second place prize, but I do feel a lot better knowing that the top prize is not won by the same person every month.

I agree. I certainly don't have the patience for those repetitive tasks. There are very few that I will do fairly often but most of them I think are too much work and too boring to want to continue to do

Still a lot of month left to go - 15 days ;-)
