Developer Awards! Phase 2: Virtual Items

Nope! I reached ~180k MAU in April, qualifying me for the second wave, haven’t heard anything since.

Fairly certain the program is on an indefinite hold until they’re able to roll it out to everyone :confused:

Hello everyone. This is just an unofficial PSA. Developer awards are currently on hold. No-one will be receiving any crowns or Swag Bags until the next wave. So please stop saying “Well I didn’t get mine” or “I have 100+ MAU and why haven’t I got my crown”. Roblox has stopping rewarding them as they are trying to figure out a better way.

Yes, we are all well aware of that. Please read the conversation before making a “PSA”, everyone here is curious as to when the next wave will happen, not if.

Some people however are not aware. If you do scroll through recent replies there are individuals who do not know. Appreciate the feedback though.

Can anyone tell me where you find this for group games?

It should be in the ‘Developer Stats’ tab on the group game’s page. Scroll down and you will see the ‘Historical Data’ section. Refer those data to the breakdown of the milestones at the top of the topic.

Thanks, do you know if these crowns are still being awarded? It has been about a month since my game hit 100K MAU.

They suspended it for a while due to an overwhelming number of dishonest survey submissions. From this incident, they have decided to place a temporary limit on award distribution. As of now, they’ll grant the awards to the owner of the game, while trying to figure a new solution to distribute it.

This is the response they gave me through devawards@roblox.com

They replied to me saying that. I said I’m the game owner but they just copied and pasted the same response again.

Yep, they hold down all requests until further notice.

Does anyone have any recent information on the delivery of crowns ?, any minimally relevant information would help us all a lot (please refrain from saying that only the owner of the game will currently receive the crown, that is something that most of you know)

I have a question, does any of you have direct contact with a personal roblox member?, specifically in the developer area

I have still not received any of my developer awards despite getting easily over 50k Mau on my profile games alone not to mention my group games.

My game hit 400K+ players in August of this year. Still haven’t received one crown.

Many months have passed by and we have yet to see any items being received. It is truly unfortunate for developers who worked as a team to not receive their respective award, especially after putting in work. I myself fall under this category. Since I do not make my own games, I usually assist others in their projects.

One of those was a game I made with a friend of mine, which I did all the script and he did all the building. Of course, the system automatically gave him the Crown of O’s, but I did not receive any reward. He filled out the form back when it released, and I still do not own the item.

Another instance was the creation of a game which was under another account. The account who owns the game of course has the Crown of O’s, and the form was also filled out under that account, but I have yet to receive the crown. Unlike the other games I have assisted with, this was entirely my project so I find it quite unfair that I am still lacking this item.

Although the Golden Crown of O’s has become a somewhat of a worthless item due to the amount of people who own it, and because a big number of those people are people who either did not work for it or made a game that was basically begging for visits in order to earn the crown, I find it truly unfair that these people have benefited from the system while hard-working developers, small and large, have yet to receive their rewards. Regardless of its value, this item is an item that I truly wish to own as it displays hard work that I have put into developing games for Roblox.

From what I’ve read, most people have just received an automated “wait 3 months” message, and I can state that it has already been more than three months since the form was filled. It is truly sad and demotivating when you see people who have put little to no work earn the Golden and even higher-ranking crowns, yet developers like us, small and large, have not even received the Golden Crown of O’s. I truly hope the Roblox team takes into consideration these factors and processes the requests of all fellow developers who want to claim their rewards which they have worked hard for.
