Cool,๐ seems you have already thought out stuff. I agree to your every solution and they seem effective to me. A moderating team will cut out most of the mess. Including the redundant questions besides these challanges.
And yes, no harm in building the communities with this execution in place.
Also, I feel probably ratio can ve revised. Like instead of distributing 100% of rewards. How about leaving 10% or maybe 20 with the author. So people are encouraged to ask more relevant and thoughtful questions. Or may be a ratio or a better ratio can be decided after actually witnessing how things work out. So in any case, it would be good to put this in action and start as soon as possible. ๐
Also I have some other ideas, but they will probably streatch this too far out of its initial stage again. ๐ And might be relavant an year or years after. I am not sure.
But still to instill some food for thought, introducing anonimity to ask questions and write answers. Will unlock the doors to 1/3rd of crowd in need of non judgemental expression or personal counseling that flock at sites like quora or other forums. And that's why I vouched for a dedicated front end. Well I can talk about this more. But i guess this is a senstive topic, and even not sure if it is feasible. Also, a bunch can always present better opinions and unique perspectives than an individual. So it'd be better to also bring this into discussion in some future post. If and when you feel it's worth decompressing.
But for now Quorive ๐ค, I'd love seeing it in execution and will participate.
