3 Feature Key Giveaway
Jonathan McCaffrey edited this page 12 months ago

Disclaimer: No movement was done on this task, and those keys have long since expired. Perhaps such a system can be thought about for the future, should an event like this occur again.

Overview

User Story: As a content creator, I need some plan to give away keys.

This feature is inspired by SunSpear Games providing several alpha keys to the maintainer of this project.

Question

  • When do the keys expire?
  • How open, or cryptic should I go about distributing keys?
  • Given this concept is only a temporary thing, is it even worth the dev time to create an advance system for distributing keys?
    • How can I whip up something quickly, to show one person a key? And to know a real person is getting and using the key? Do I need Captcha?
    • How can I ensure I don't give someone a key that is used or expired?
  • Could I possibly get enough people just asking me for keys via discord or twitch, to make no code implementation required?

Details

I am going to make the decision to keep a portion of the keys for on-boarding.

  • Update the Wiki documentation to indicate a limited amount of devs, designers, QAs, etc. can get keys.
  • Have some open method in the website to allow keys to be grabbed.
  • Have some cryptic method in the website to allow keys to be grabbed.
