XP system

Being active in the group earns you XP — messages, generations and game plays all count.

Command What it shows
/xp Your XP and rank in this group (this week + all-time)
/xp_top Top 10 of the group — filter by activity type and period
/xp_winners The weekly XP winners

Weekly rankings reset every week, so everyone gets a fresh shot at the podium.

Heidrun Spin — /vote

/vote is the group game: you spin a wheel in private, and every spin scores points for the group you spin for. Groups compete in the Heidrun Trending standings, and the top ones win prizes.

How to play

  1. In your group, type /vote. The bot posts a button.
  2. Tap it — it opens the bot in private and ties you to that group.
  3. Spin. The wheel lands on one of eight sections: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 or 15 points, all equally likely.
  4. Those points go to your group's total.

One spin every 3 hours, per group. If you're in several communities, you spin for each of them — the limit is per group, not per player.

You must be in the Heidrun Trending group

The results live there, and membership is checked on every spin. Not a member? The bot hands you the link.

Standings and prizes

The spin standings are posted in the Heidrun Trending room every 5 minutes, and a recap goes out in every group once a day at 12:00 UTC. The /vote invite is also posted in every group three times a day (11:00, 17:00 and 23:00 UTC). After each spin, the bot shows your group's points and rank for today and for the week, with a link to the standings. (/scoreboard is for tournaments, not for the wheel.)

When The top group wins
Every day 1 day of free ads on the bot
Every week 1 week of free ads
Every 2 weeks 100 credits for the group
Every month A free AMA

The bot applies the first three itself and announces the winner both in the Trending room and in the winning group.

Group admins can stop the daily recap with /trending_off — see Admin Setup.

Competitions

Two kinds of competition can run in a group: a meme challenge, judged by the group's reactions, and a game tournament, judged by scores. Both are started by an admin, run for a chosen duration, and announce their own winners.

One of each can be active at a time, so a meme challenge and a tournament can run side by side.

Meme challenge

/challenge <theme> [Xh] [| prize]
/challenge Viking at the office
/challenge Viking at the office 48h
/challenge Viking at the office 48h | 100 tokens

The theme is the only required part. Xh sets the duration (24h by default) and anything after | is announced as the prize — the bot does not distribute it, it just displays it.

The bot posts and pins the announcement, then:

  • every meme generated in the group during the challenge is entered automatically — only memes made with the bot count;
  • members vote by reacting to an entry with any emoji;
  • you cannot vote for your own meme, and removing your reaction removes your vote;
  • a reminder goes out every hour with the time left.

At the end, the bot forwards the winning meme and posts the podium (top 3 by votes). Entries with zero votes are ignored, and if nobody voted at all, no winner is declared.

The bot must be an admin of the group

Telegram only sends reaction updates to administrators. If the bot is not an admin, entries are still collected but no vote is ever counted.

Game tournament

/tournament <game> [Xh] [| prize]
/tournament climb
/tournament climb 24h | 100 tokens

Playable games: climb, axe, mead, graze, sail, turtle, bow, pacman, saiyan_game, saiyan_bomb, saiyan_spirit, saiyan_beamclash.

Everyone plays with the usual command (/climb, /axe…) and only the scores made in this group during the tournament window are counted — each player is ranked on their best score, so playing more often doesn't stack.

/scoreboard (or /standings) shows the live top 10 and the time remaining, and the same board is auto-posted every hour. The final podium is announced and pinned when time runs out.

Ending early

/endchallenge

Admin only. Ends the active competition immediately and announces the results as if the timer had run out. A competition also survives a bot restart — its timer is picked back up automatically.
