# Engagement URL: https://zerodev.ca/docs/medusa/modules/engagement > Chat games that start when a busy channel goes quiet, daily posts, reputation and social actions. Engagement keeps chat moving. It posts a quick game when an active channel starts to slow down, and never interrupts a busy channel or posts into a dead one. It also adds reputation and social action commands. ## When It Posts A channel qualifies when it had at least **Minimum Recent Messages** within the **Activity Window**, then nobody has posted for **Quiet Minutes**. After an activity, the channel waits for the **Engagement Cooldown**, and each server posts at most **Maximum Engagements Per Day**. ## Activities | Activity | How it plays | | ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- | | Spell Racer | First member to type the word wins. | | Scrambled Words | First member to unscramble the word wins. | | Riddle Race | First correct answer to the riddle wins. | | Emoji Guess | First member to guess what the emojis mean wins. | | Quiz | A multiple choice question with lettered buttons. | | Would You Rather | A two-option poll with a live tally. | | This Or That | A two-option poll with a live tally. | | Question Of The Day | A daily discussion question. | | Quote Of The Day | A daily quote. | Races and the quiz end after the **Answer Window**. Winners get the **Winner Coin Reward** with the Economy module and the **Winner XP Reward** with the Leveling module. With **Open Discussion Threads** on, the daily question and quote get a thread. The daily question and quote post at **Daily Post Time** in the **Daily Post Channel**. ## Reputation Members give each other reputation for being helpful. A member can give or take one point every 12 hours, and cannot rate themselves. Scores show on `/rep leaderboard` and `/leaderboard`. ## Social Actions `/interact` has 24 actions aimed at another member, such as `hug`, `pat`, `highfive`, `wave`, `poke`, `bonk` and `yeet`. `/emote` has 25 solo reactions, such as `dance`, `laugh`, `shrug`, `facepalm` and `tableflip`. Both take an optional note and show a GIF. The target of an `/interact` gets a button to return the action, and Medusa counts how many times each pair has interacted. ## Settings **Engagement Settings** | Setting | Default | What it does | | ----------------------------- | ------- | ----------------------------------------- | | Enable Auto Engagement | On | Turns automatic activities on or off. | | Engagement Channels | None | Channels Medusa watches. | | Activity Window (Minutes) | 30 | How far back recent messages are counted. | | Minimum Recent Messages | 8 | Messages needed in the window. | | Quiet Minutes | 5 | Silence before an activity starts. | | Engagement Cooldown (Minutes) | 120 | Wait between activities in one channel. | | Maximum Engagements Per Day | 6 | Daily limit per server. | | Answer Window (Seconds) | 60 | Time to answer a race or quiz. | | Open Discussion Threads | On | Adds a thread to daily posts. | | Enable Daily Question & Quote | On | Turns daily posts on or off. | | Daily Post Channel | None | Where daily posts go. | | Daily Post Time (HH:MM) | 09:00 | When daily posts go out. | | Winner Coin Reward | 50 | Coins for a winner. | | Winner XP Reward | 25 | XP for a winner. | **Activity Toggles**: turn each of the nine activities on or off. **Social Actions** | Setting | Default | What it does | | ------------------------ | --------------------- | ------------------------------------------- | | Enable Social Actions | On | Turns `/interact` and `/emote` on or off. | | Show GIFs | On | Adds a GIF to each action. | | GIF Source | Custom GIFs, Then API | Use your own GIFs, the API, or yours first. | | Custom GIFs | None | Your GIF URLs, each tied to an action. | | Show Return Button | On | Lets the target return the action. | | Track Interaction Counts | On | Counts interactions between members. | ## Commands | Command | What it does | | ------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `/engagement trigger [activity] [channel]` | Start an activity now.
