Currently, the SCS goals vary drastically from month to month, depending on the number of interactions made the previous month. That seems completely illogical to me - the interactions made at one point will not be the same a month later.

The total number of interactions made generally depends on whether there's an incentive to interact (an Event), and the number of active users (online within 24 hours), which depends on the time of the year - holiday seasons generally mean more active users.

If one month has high goals (140k), then we may not reach the goals. The system lowers the goals significantly (80k), and we end up reaching them. So the system increases the goals drastically again. It’s just an endless cycle - reach goals, fail to reach, reach goals, fail to reach...

Either - the goals should be the same each month. This may need to be reviewed (and adjusted) every 6 months/1 year.

Or - the current system should be improved so that the goals do not drastically change from month to month - it only changes by 5k-20k or so.

Another option is to base the goals on the previous day's interactions.
