Unless you actually referred annual members...those referrers get screwed.
Most of the 31 annual members were either registered by OpenLedger or existed at genesis. There are exactly four actual referrals of annual memberships, by three people. If the community thinks reimbursing them is important, it would be possible to set up a worker to pay them manually (or make arrangements with an existing worker to do this). One of those four annual memberships upgraded to LTM on its own, so their referrer has already been paid. The remaining two referrers (two of the three accounts were referred by the same referrer) are:
1.2.97634 (referred annual member in block #3028579)
1.2.32176 (referred annual members 1.2.97382, 1.2.101152 who upgraded in blocks #1391978, #3255854)
Woohoo! I am the winner who is the loser by having referred 2 of the 3 annuals who get upgraded and will lose out on the 30% for the year and all future upgrade revenue.
Don't get me wrong...I agree with the getting rid of annual memberships, but do not like being the one who loses out.
Why would anyone have an annual membership at genesis...buddy buddy hook-up? The only free upgrades that were announced iirc were lifetime members for referring someone before the upgrade annoucement.
