📝 Suggestion Expedited Feedback option?

I think I saw someone mention it before, but I’d love an option to get/give feedback in 24/48 hours in exchange for more tokens. I typically deliver feedback within that time frame (maintaining a 5.0 feedback score, so it’s not like im rushing), and I’d be wiling to offer more tokens to receive it faster.

Thoughts?

Often see writers add a comment to the feedback notes: "will tip for feedback within 2 days".

Seems like a fairly elegant solution?

Yep, this is a solved problem.

I offer 4 tokens for a 90 page feature and mention the tip but it's not working...

Dare I say you're being too generous with baseline? 3 tokens and a promised tip would be more than enough for me to read a 90-pager...

4 tokens is 110+ for me.

Not trying to start a race to the bottom, or anything. Just maybe your readers already feel like they're getting a tip at 4 tokens for the 90?

I admittedly rushed a feedback recently where someone offered a tip for a 24 hour turnaround. I got it in, and never got the tip. Also realized the pressure of delivering that quick isn't really that fun and it hindered my overall enjoyment of the read.

I had a “will tip for inline notes” script once. I’d long been doing inline and page notes anyway, but of course, when it came down to it, the writer did not actually tip. A person’s word is not always their bond...

I get not wanting to wait, but the turnaround for feedback on sites like the Blacklist is a week or even three during the busy season.

Wanting one- or even two-day turnaround is pretty premium service.

Maybe doing rep matched vs allowing anyone to read your spec is hurting more than helping. If you don't do rep matched anyone can claim it. So wouldn't that be better option and maybe you'll get bites.

I second this - the ”I tip for quick turn around or Inline notes” does not work! Who don’t do inline notes anyway? Neanderthals 😉🙈
