**Discussions and functioning of bots**
_Discussions are often held on github. Kodadot has developed github bots for assignment of bounty as well as bounty distribution.
With Assign Bot V1, a person can autoassign himself a specific bounty. To assign yourself the bounty, just go to Kodadot's github bounty page and write :wave: in chat. The Assign Bot will assign you that specific bounty with a time limit to complete the bounty.
With the payout bot, developers do payouts between themselves for PRs.
If you are facing some problem or are having some question, you can ask in github discussions and someone would probably answer your query._
**Code Review Guild**
_So, why is it important to have quality code and peer-reviewed codebase?
The quality of code is very important because it ensures usability, user-friendliness, faster execution of code and understandability of code.
A 'bad' code is not much usable, users don't get a satisfiable experience and code takes a lot of effort to be understood and program takes a lot of time to execute.
The best way to ensure that code is efficient and its a good quality code is to have it reviewed by peers. 
Whenever you write some code to solve Kodadot issues, you should request your Kodadot peers on github to review it. Once your code is reviewed and accepted and your pull request is merged into the Kodadot repository, the bounty prize is yours!_
