 * Because of this, the rigorous design and validation of proposed cryptoeconomic models is happening in different silos and common procedures are not yet clear nor easily shared. There is no incentive to share the tools.
 * The R&D going into building these tools is a long, complex and expensive process, and creating the documentation and educational resources required to spread their use is an additional expense with little reward.

+# Contributors Guide
+
+## What are Contributors Points?
+
+**The voices and contributions from the Commons Stack community are beyond valuable - and as such we seek to reflect that value within our system. One way of doing this is awarding Contributors Points which, at the end of each month, can turn into CSTK tokens: they indicate reputation in the Commons Stack as well as invite someone to the** [**Trusted Seed**](https://medium.com/giveth/the-trusted-seed-of-the-commons-stack-5af6fb04cd30)**.** 
+
+\*\*\*\*
+
+* **Points are dished in the main** [**Commons Stack telegram channel**](https://t.me/CommonsStack)**.**
+* **Point dishing for the month is closed off at midnight CEST on the last day of each month. Very shortly after this date the dishers convene and discuss how many points they awarded to each contributor and why. Dishers can make changes to the points they awarded up to this date.**
+* **After discussion, the representatives assign ‘weight’ to the points for that month, which is translated into percentages and recalibrates the final amount of CSTK tokens that is claimable by each contributor.**
+* **CSTK tokens are reputation in the Commons Stack. They are non transferrable and will never have monetary value. Rather, they are a badge of membership signifying you are trusted - which gives you the opportunity to take part in the launching of commons.** 
+* **If you are dished points, the bot will mention you in the main channel - click on its invitation to direct message, and the bot will start a chat with you. You can find the live sheet of the awarded points throughout a month and the historical record of all awarded points and related CSTK tokens**[ **in this folder**](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1UpoB17H-L2_jjzd4rgRaSbLgcaFwKqqE)**. This can also be reached by typing "!sheet" in any telegram room the points bot \(@CommonsStackBot\) is in.**
