How it works

The orientation tape. Watch first — then the rules below.

The points system

Every contribution earns base points (for showing up) plus quality points (for doing it well). Bigger, more complete entries pay more.

Documents
+15 base

+2 if > 500 chars, +4 if > 2,000 chars.

Best for runbooks and KB articles.

Flexible assets
+10 base

+3 if every required field is filled, then +1 per optional field.

Best for structured records (Apps, Procedures, etc.).

Quick notes
+5 base

+1 if > 300 chars, +3 if > 1,000 chars.

Best for tiny tips appended to a client’s quick notes.

Timely-doc bonus  
+25%
Publish a doc-from-ticket within 1 hour of the ticket’s completion time and you get a +25% bonus on top of base + quality. The clock is your friend.
Streaks
Submit something on consecutive days to grow your streak. Miss a day and it resets to 1. Streaks unlock badges and bragging rights on the leaderboard.
Badges
Awarded automatically for milestones: total submissions, streak length, and how many distinct clients you’ve documented for. Check the Badges page for what’s available.

Points rules

The official rulebook. Every submission is scored as base + quality + bonuses, in that order.

1. Base points

Document
+15

Flexible asset
+10

Quick note
+5

Awarded the moment the entry syncs to IT Glue.

2. Quality points

Documents: +2 if > 500 chars, +4 if > 2,000 chars.

Flexible assets: +3 if every required field is filled, +1 per optional field.

Quick notes: +1 if > 300 chars, +3 if > 1,000 chars.

3. Timely-doc bonus  
+25%

Use Doc from ticket and publish within 60 minutes of the ticket’s completed timestamp in Autotask and your final score is multiplied by 1.25.

Example: a Document with +15 base and +4 quality = 19 points. Published 42 minutes after ticket completion → 19 × 1.25 = 24 points (rounded).

The clock starts at the Autotask completedDate, not when you opened the ticket. Miss the hour — no bonus, but you still keep base + quality.

4. Streaks
Streaks don’t add points directly — they unlock streak badges and tiebreakers on the leaderboard. One submission per day keeps the streak alive; miss a day and it resets to 1.
5. Fair play

Empty / placeholder entries are rejected before they reach IT Glue.

Editing your own entry later does not re-trigger the timely bonus.

Admins can void points on entries that don’t meet quality standards.

How to use the platform

  1. 1. New entry

    Pick a client, choose Document / Flexible asset / Quick note, fill it in, submit. It syncs straight to IT Glue and points land instantly.

  2. 2. Doc from ticket

    Enter a ticket number. We pull the ticket from Autotask, the AI drafts a runbook, you review/edit, then publish into the client’s Glue Quest folder in IT Glue. Beat the 1-hour clock for the timely bonus.

  3. 3. Doc gaps

    Clusters of similar tickets that don’t yet have documentation. Claim one, write the doc, earn cluster bonuses on top of the base points.

  4. 4. Leaderboard & Badges

    See where you stack up and what badges you’ve unlocked — and which ones are next.

Live. Die. Document. — Your move.
