These posts both mention the "new bounty system" that's apparently been around for ages, but I can't for the life of me figure out HOW to use it, and what the rules are. I've visited the blog entry in the second question detailing the features implemented/improvements to the bounty system, but I haven't been able to find answers to the following basic questions:
- Where do I top-up a bounty from or start a new bounty for an existing question (others' questions. Data on "own" questions would also be helpful, but not necessary)
What happens to the old bounty points when a new bounty is started? When I close the new, extended bounty, does the answer I assign the bounty to get:
- The points I first assigned
- The top-up points
- 1 and 2
