That said, all the reward programs I know of do offer something to ALL members on a daily basis, whether it's a trivia question, scratch off, paid click, site visit - whatever.

I think totally locking out those that don't do anything else but the scratch off isn't fair, as then they won't have any way to earn money on SR on a daily basis, and I think they'll give up. Most people are not familiar with how to do offers and even though I offer my referrals a tutorial, they find it overwhelming. I try to get them to do the surveys, but most of them give up before ever reaching $5. I think they need that incentive of the scratch-off, and hopefully it will keep them coming back and they'll check out the site and the forums and decide to do offers and surveys.

I was in the same boat. I had no idea how to go about qualifying for surveys and offers until I read about it in the forums. It took me a long, long time to even think about reading the forums, yet daily I checked to see if there were any paid clicks and played the scratch off game.

My thought is if it can somehow be tied into reading the forums, maybe those who are only trying to scratch off might find there is way more to SR than just the scratch off. I have no idea how to do that - but I do think it it's tied to having to post a reply, it's going to drive people away rather than get them to become more active.
