What do I win??

Points win prizes, I was wondering the same thing.
@Chris F have we found some trophy points somewhere?

Nothing as yet, we are testing this feature ahead of the launch of the new classifieds, where you will be able to trade TFF points for credits in the classifieds system. We didn't know if trophies would be awarded retrospectively. And they are, which is good news. We will explain more as time goes on. The new classifieds will have better upgrade features over the current system has and still offers the same free adverts for all farmers.

Yesterday, I went from the usual 113 points to 150 something.
Today it's 108. Where did they go?

We are still testing the points thing - it has never really changed to date. We have adjusted some of the lower bands to test to see if this applied to members who had already gained points. Further bands will be added to allow members who continue to contribute to gain points every year. So in theory you could end up with 1000s of points in years to come. Trying to make the system fair though isn't as easy as it sounds.

Next question is what can you do with them. We will definitely be lets you trade them for credits in Classifieds and you can already use them for company pages on TFF every year. The problem is you could only ever do this once, so we needed to adjust the system so you could keep earning points.

You will see quite a few changes over the next few weeks in the run up to the launch of classifieds.

Suggestions on the other thread:

That members should be allowed to trade points between them selves
The you should be allowed to use points to buy merchandise like mugs and hats.

Can I sell mine?

The bigger question is can you get anyone to buy them!
