Airdrop through farcaster "official" airdrop tool may not be the best practice. 

I like the way what $noice or $pro did, reward the people who help projects increase mindshare on Farcaster.

Every like, recast, reply, quote matter.

I don't view it as mutually exclusive, airdrop tool is usually ~$10k in token distribution to a couple thousand highly targeted users based on what they're optimizing for (no charge by Farcaster team) vs other airdrop distributions are usually significantly larger. Ours is just another marketing tool

👍👍 I may miss some, didn't realize 😅

We actually offer 3 things e.g. Celo airdrop had users follow the account + land users on a cast with more info and mini apps they can try out, Higher airdrop had users cast a certain topic given a prompt (have some airdrops coming up with this approach)

Yeah, agree. They can use different methods to attract attention. 

Right now the airdrop tools only ask for adding the mini app, may provide more other ways.

It's true I haven't been as active here the past few months as I'd like to have been. But I do consistently meet these metrics.

I guess I have the advantage of knowing what I do here and knowing what I'm not (a sybil or a colluder) and the algorithms may start by assuming I am instead of assuming I'm not? 😅

Regardless, I'm sure it will all work out in the end. It always does. Thank you for replying. 💜

Goes back to my point that these are smaller budgets than other distribution events so fewer people can get them. Each team has different criteria but most commonly selected attributes are # of followers, mini app usage, and onchain txns. Might not be consistently among top 1.5-2k of these users by that mix?

I'd like some transparency into why I consistently "make it" when independent tools are deployed but never make it when the "official" one is used. 

What makes me different in one vs. the other? If it's an offchain attribute I'm blind to, how can I become enlightened, so it can be fixed? 🤷‍♀️

Perhaps your marketing tool has an unrealized flaw in it?
