Thanks for bringing forward the Epic Awards concept — it’s inspiring to see recognition framed through community-driven choice and pairwise methods.
In our proposal, we’re not proposing a domain but testing whether CollabBerry’s contributor-level allocation and accountability tools could serve across domains as a complementary mechanism.
What resonates strongly here is the theme of recognition. While the Epic Awards celebrate projects through community voting, CollabBerry is experimenting with recognition at the individual contributor level. Our system relies on a social mechanism of continuous peer-to-peer assessments, where contributors regularly acknowledge each other’s efforts. Over time, these micro-assessments accumulate into a transparent reputation layer that informs fairer allocation of rewards.
This could be seen as a bridge: where the Epic Awards spotlight projects, CollabBerry ensures that recognition also flows internally — making visible who contributed what and ensuring that incentives align not just for winning projects, but for the people behind them.
We’d love to explore if you see value in linking community-wide recognition (like the Epic Awards) with contributor-level accountability tools like ours.
