Topic: Points
How come I can't publish a post that awards points to reviewers? Worse: After posting the piece in question, it swallowed my points.

...don’t pay points.
Try posting in Groups that pay points.
That little note that says ...
“Points: No
This content was not posted in a group that uses points and does not pay points to be reviewed!”
...is your clue.
Re: Points
I do (and did) until this morning, Temple, but whenever I change the groups to publish to (like everybody and his bother and sister), it comes back the same: check boxes devoid of a check mark.

Re: Points
Figured it out. Apparently having an equal amount of points as are required for posting will result in a publication without points awarded.

Doesn’t work that way, Ray. It won’t let you post to a points group if you don’t have enough. Period. If you do have enough (even exactly the right amount), it pops up and asks you if you want to deduct. You choose to post on not. Period. It also doesn’t “swallow” your points in that situation.

Also, when you choose the “story type” - try choosing “book” - it’ll make managing your work easier; it’ll help your readers too.
Re: Points
Nah, afraid not, Temple. Needed 2.06 points, had exactly that, published the piece to the everybody-group, and ended up with a post without points to be earned. Added 0.43 points, et voila, there it is, complete with points. On the 'book' issue, yeah, I got it.

Pssst...there is no “everybody-group”
Seems you finally got it.
And you’re welcome.
