The Long Read: 

Firstly, I'm a daily endotarter, and I use a mixture of SWAN, Discord Bots and on site filters to stay on top. Although I have no SWAN awards (I usually tend to blame it on my time zone ), I am usually in the top 50 or top 10 in two out of the three SWAN endorsement categories (see here, here, here and here). 

Now, for the endorsement days. Started by delegate Aumeltopia, endorsement days are a fun and engaging way to increase endorsements, and these have proven to be very successful so far. Although they are successful, there are a few problems with them. Firstly, the endorsement days are organised so that the person who has been giving the most endorsements throughout the past 24 hours wins the event. This gives an unfair advantage to people who have recently joined the World Assembly, and while there is no problem with that from an integrational standpoint, as it motivates new people to join the WA, it leaves many successful endotarters unrecognised, as most successful endotarters tend to tart daily. This can also cause an increased number of WA resignations and re-applications, as people wish to win the event, but, cannot, because they have already previously endorsed a large majority of the region.

To combat this problem, I believe that we should look into reforming endorsement days. The region should look into only giving out rewards for endorsement days for monthly awards, in effect creating an endorsement "month", and the awards are given out based on the first person in each SWAN category. This would not only limit the WA resignations, it would also motivate newer people to remain in the World Assembly, and to continue endorsing. And who knows, perhaps one day, a young one will knock Qvait off the top spots? Lastly, I would give a random endorser of the delegate a card or a similar reward (like having names on the WFE, etc.). This would encourage more people to endorse the delegate, and increase the endorsement count.
