They are physical candies that pop up on the map and you have to drive over them... HOWEVER, they don't show up at the point of the edit, just along your route (and if you don't drive over them, they will reappear later)

Yup, editing. Not just people driving CRAZY amounts... which is what I thought before starting my editing hobby.

rups2000 wrote:"Candies"? What is this "candies popping up" you speak of? Sorry, I'm a noob so I'm still learning the points system but there's very little info out there about points (or least, that I could find on the wiki). For example, I didn't know you could get points by commenting on traffic updates.

It s bonus points... http://www.waze.com/wiki/index.php/Your ... ortunities

Why would anyone care how many Waze points they have?

Because I see them as one measure of how much I have added to Waze.

I know it's popular amongst higher editors to say "points don't matter to me any more" and it feels like it's almost frowned on to publicly care about your points. Well I care very much.

Over 4 years I've dedicated massive amounts of time and effort to building and improving the UK map. During that time I've been paid the grand amount of £0. All I have to show for it, as an external measure, is my position on the UK scoreboard and that number that says I've made 4 million points-worth of improvement. You may wonder if I have cheated, or if others do. Well I'm sure that some do cheat. I know I haven't, so it's certainly possible to score 50K in a week without cheating. I bet that I get more satisfaction from my honestly-earned points than the cheater does.

And I don't ever want to suggest that editing is more important than driving. In the UK weekly scoreboard, there are regularly names in the top 10 who have never or barely made an edit. Admittedly, very few people have a job that requires the amount of travel this requires, but every driver who turns on Waze - whether it's for 10 miles travel per week or 1000 miles - is also making a valuable contribution to Waze. It's all very well for me to spend hours making the map look good in a town - but without Wazers contributing the driving data, the Waze routing will never reach it's full potential.

So if you're one of the visitors to this thread who wonders where high scores like mine come from: it's hours of editing every day to the exclusion of all social life.

And that effort would be wasted without you guys turning on Waze and making use of it, for which I thank you.

Yes, yes it is that interesting

And then there are those that both drive a lot and edit a lot =P.

You get bonus points for edits, so when I do get in the car, I have bonuses for 1, 2, or even 3 weeks worth of edits waiting out there for me! Every 500 edits gives you a bonus candy. So I tend to either be at the top of the scoreboard for my state or somewhere at the bottom.

Ok great! Thanks! Like I said above I started editing myself and I have already caught the wrath from my wife! Hahaha! She said ok youve been looking at stupid maps for over an hour is it really that interesting?

I get the wrath weekly or then I just sleep way too short nights...
