How to Succeed on Farcaster: as a dog, or otherwise (a thread 1/8) Today marks three weeks in a row of being in the top 10 on Warpcast Rewards. That’s not a flex (ok, maybe a little), but mostly a chance to reflect on what’s worked for me and maybe offer something helpful if you’re new here, returning to find everything’s changed, or have been around forever but never quite felt like you clicked. I am dog. I don’t write code. I’m not even really sure what a protocol is (don’t tell @dwr.eth). But I have figured out how to build a presence and find community here. If I can do it, truly anyone can. Here’s what I’ve learned so far: (full explanations in thread because this is long, like me) 1. Be a cute dog 2. Cast a lot 3. Engage with people (and dogs) 4. Find your people 5. Stay current with the metas, but don’t live for the metas 6. Reflect every week (bonus, follow @pichi for more great tips/examples, like how I learned how to best format of this thread)

I read your article. Thank you. I had a question. If we present a post and the number of likes and comments are low, the amount of points we receive from the warpcast will also be low? Some people post 20-30 times a day, is this important in getting points? Almost everyone is quoting each other's posts and writing their own opinion. Is this the most important way to get weekly points? thanks bert🌹✨️

So we don't know exactly how points are determined, but it is based on your top 20 casts (posts) from the week. So if you cast 20-30 times a day, in theory you might have a higher chance of getting a few of those to do really well. BUT I think it's better to focus on casting a few a day that you know are good content, rather than a bunch that are ok content. That way people don't get tired of seeing your casts! Also, your casts that don't do well (don't get likes and comments) don't bring your score down, only casts that do well bring your score up. People quote cast each other's casts because it's only things that you cast from your main page that get counted for Rewards, things in the replies don't go towards your score. So some people do all of their replies as quote casts because they think it will help boost their score. I think this is ok to do sometimes, but only if you have something new to add to the original, or something you want to bring to the people following you, not just for points.
