Champions Ring 19 July 2021

Attendees: Chair, Dave, FearlessThompson, Michiel, mprime, misanth, bagholder Mcfomo III, Defile Zebra

Summary:
• Lots of work on playbooks this last week
• Midweek storming Weds from 17-18 UTC will be used to continue the discussion from DAO call

Round Table Updates:

• DefileZebra
o Updates in the #Guild-and-raid-reports channel were a bit sparse prior to the call today. Props to Misanth for posting prior to the call. Dave later reported that Designers Guild is now meeting bi-weekly, so status report previously shared is the latest. Still interested in any ideas or suggestions on how to ensure that this is a good use of everyone’s time.

• Misanth
o Biggest cohort ever with over 20 participants and will fill up pretty quick. Could redesign onboarding system. 300 engaged ottos? Map out hierarchy of quests. What are we doing and why, what is
o Next week: hoping that we do some follow-up on token and treasure

• Michiel
o Notice that new developers join the Builders meeting but they do not tend to stick around, this is an opportunity and something we should make a concerted effort to resolve.
o Maybe its good to see what is really ht priority or the min viable thing that we need to get cash flow running to offer some services.
o Do we have a map of the whole customer journey and from the user point of view?
o Dan13ram is picking up a lot of work
o

o Fearless
 building my meta and gated features as the priority.

o Misanth
 about the playbooks we need to separate them into categories (guides and tutorials versus what we define as a playbook)

o Bacon
 What is the difference between a guide/tutorial and a playbook?
• means something different to everyone.
 Misanth Elaborates
• Playbooks are short lessons written by those that have found their way through the muck. Best existing example is Coopatroopah’s: “How to make it in crypto without a line of code.” Provides 10 steps. https://wiki.metagame.wtf/docs/playbooks/how-to-make-it-without-technical-skills
• Playbooks and guides should go into notion first. After completed in notion, needs to be reviewed rather than all updates into GitHub.

o Michiel
 Think of Playbooks as how to play part of the game. How do we come up with our playbook topics?
 Barrier to entry is that one must already consider successful in the space.
 Where you get the playbooks? Probably Innkeepers, right?

o Fearless Thompson
 Internal focus and getting our house right can create credibility, versus being perceived as dictating to the wider community.

o Misanth
 Tired of seeing people’s work being discarded because it doesn’t conform to the definition

• Penguin
o XP faire did minting and Alec did calculation and updated merle root.
o Sherpa and necromancer bots.
 Allow the bot to check last message sent, how many sent. Idea is also to track XP at purge versus current (season) to determine fallen or remaining a player.
o Next week document steps taken for the mint.
 Not currently in in the video session is updating the fleek deployment.
• Will be helping and facilitating this week and drive further decentralization
• Prime
o Reminder that if you hear something interesting or uncover someone’s passion please refer them to mprime to see if we have a new rabbit hole topic for the Friday community calls

• Fearless Thompson
o added things to DAO followup in Notion
o Working on mapping out seed ecosystem.
 Lots of supply pressure but not much buy.
o In the guild and raid reports.
o Working on videos. Bogey has been helping out with shillers video.
o Could use help: more videos and help planning them. Haven’t wrote specifics in all areas, but still an opportunity to help get things scripted.
o Penguin on videos: noticed on YouTube.

• Dave
o Usually write or record sports on Tuesday but Designers Guils is meeting biweekly these days.
 Will have another report next week.
o Jumping over the first plan iteration for playbooks.
 Next steps and who will be working on them.
o Opened up path to start sketching wireframes.
 Filters on leaderboard/player list.
 Dan is working on this and they have been collaborating a bit recently
 Think they have a solution for timezones. Demo is already available.
 Fixing sorting and adding seasonal XP (will be default).
 Planted idea to someday replace spinner because chakra UI has a readymade component for this.
 Worked on top 3 skills on profile setup.
o No desk or big screen and won’t for a while, so limited to mobile.

• Chair
o Goal to build out more scripting videos, but didn’t get much done last week.
 Plans today to figure out what tasks should be and get caught up.
o There is a builder issue that needs more scaffolding.
o Will focus on video and video playbooks.
 Looking at fearless’ doc.
 Apologies for lack of productivity but will catch up in group chat

• Bagholder McFomo III
o Less sorry than chair about having little to report
o Looking for someone to take over shillers guild for summer.
o Had a few thinks come up
 Spouse has a new job and will be full time training next week
 Bagholder will be watching the children and will be unable to commit to specific times.
 Will have a somewhat sporadic schedule that will make it tough to commit to static meeting times

• Bacon
o Also has not much to report
o Focus on the wiki now.
 Getting 2 new houses up to date and reviewing new submissions.
 Better landing page?
 Lots of wiki stuff.
o Org knowledge
 Raid map- dynamic updating map?
 For the OrgKnowledge stuff will start in the wiki for now but would like to get into mymeta eventually
o Bacon has some Figma challenges, but not to worry Chair will sync up and try to help
o We really need some tutorial on primary tools- GitHub, figma, miro or notion.
 That might fall under videos?
 Every playbook should have text and a video.
 Figure out how to get link between wiki and videos.
 Incorporate that into wiki, at least with a link to the YouTube page.

• Open discussion
o Tokenomics and Treasury topics from the DAO call
 prioritizing actions and raids.
 Need to followup on prior DAO call, will use Weds midweek storming 5-6p UTC on weds.
o Olympus DAO their ecosystem and bonding systems?
o Staking tokens and depending on lock length get ecosystem token at a discount. Answers exist just need to replicate them in this space.
o Bacon suggests that we need utility or something to sell
 Merch and patron rewards?

    • Warned DefileZebra changes coming to Notion meeting notes to help with support filtering organization
    • Last week
      • Cohorts 10-15 minutes late, then 45 minutes of gathering and then to townhall
        • Hard to do all the things without a clear ruleset, enforceability
          • Really good thing that we have cohorts, but use them as a time to troubleshoot and help people having issues connecting
          • Activate at the moment of engagement defeats the purpose of separating curios from engaged Octos
          • Refine that flow: how do we reward newcomers?
          • A waste to try and push every single person
          • We should really discuss, maybe next week?
      • Penguin: thinks it’s important that we gate signup a bit more. Also provide rolling addition to patron requirement. Increase patron requirement by 5 pseeds each season?

        • Maybe next Friday since we have something coordinated for this upcoming Friday
  • Michiel
    • Mega menu almost there
    • Filters working
    • Forum Dave posted about search option to create a global search and we only have search for players.
      • Would need some decisions made and some prioritization.
      • That change would need further discussion, but uncertain about what is best as far as prioritization.
      • Computational wise, this change would be a bit expensive.
      • Implementation would need to figure out whether its worth spending time on now.
      • Interesting discussion with FearlessThompson about Metagame being a “Cloud city”
    • Dove into SourceCred after session with penguin
    • One thing with source cred, sometimes for 3 days in a row isn’t updating and cannot figure out why that is. Need someone to help with that.
      • Ongoing/repeating issues in the past- Why does this constantly need to be fixed? Sync up with Alec to better understand the most recent patch
    • Penguin: how is the deployment done?
      • Is there a timer that runs the job? For SC there is a daily timer that runs some github actions, SourceCred goes out and accumulates data and then stores graphs.

S3W7 Champions Ring 02 August 2021

Attendees: Misanth, B0gie, Peth, Michiel, Bacon, mprime & FearlessThompson.

Peth

Got back from the Holiday with a not so bad message - reiterated with MetaGame is not well post.

Need the deliverables put into the context, the media needs to be created, to get people humming from the same perspective. Biggest problem is now the competition is intensifying on social media within DAOs.

Spread the message a bit more to help with recruitment.

Met a lot of connections. To do the raise in good conscious he needs more of myMeta created.

B0gie

Asks for a LinkedIn.

Peth

Job boards & Freelancers in localised areas closer to Europe, Profiles & Playbooks. 3 More Playbooks - 1) Onboarding to the DAOspace 2) How to contribute as a non-technical person 3) ???

Need Help - more Developers, StoryBrand & General Roadmap.

Misanth

Another Cohort completed, adjust our accepting of new people could change slightly.

Initially they are happy but after a week or so certain types of people are catered to MetaGame. Offer these Cohorts as a way to get your hand held a little bit… get to know each other & leave them to either become a player or not!!! Due to the MintGate

Shows his overhaul Figma

  1. Explicit emoji use warning
  2. Explaining the participation & rewards with links
  3. Introduce here & check pinned messages here & here

See. Figma for other ideas…

Including the ability to see the Feedback Loops as a Curious Octo. Without Octos only giving a min. Amount of effort until they become a Player.

Adjust Weights + Functional Emojis. Expanding the high effort emoji to the guild crest.

Editing of the MintGate for Engaged Octo’s becoming Players. In the game registered but inactive in SourceCred. Role Assignment & activation after graduation.

B0gie

Working on the MetaGame Explained video, all the scenes are being created & animated atm.Finding audio to go with the graphics & utilise MetaBob for our video.

Open the floor, to engage players on Video Content.

Shows us the Wearable NFTs being created & the Discord Bot for creating NFTS. xDAI NFTs Bridged to ETH with ease.

Michiel

Building is going a lil slow, they have Tom who is new. It’s not the most used Stack but they need to learn the stack to get to that place. Probably one of the things creating peoples hesitation. You only earn when you contribute & learning isn’t paid for.

Working with Dsybulic & the amount of errors & the time taken to fix it. That’s reducing the flow, there’s more work to do regarding that.

Spent time collating what MG is, that explains it in a OnePager. To be shared later on regarding what MG is. Explaining the Jargon in Laymans Terms instead of the Jargon.

Again reducing coordination cost via content. Michiel spent time on Sourcred & there is some useful information. The fixing of the channels is needed so is happy for that & looking to make a proposal on new channel weights.

Explains how to implement the MintGate. Connecting with Sparrow & Aragon regarding SourceCred. Likes the idea of utilising Video for now instead of Playbooks, make that priority instead. Utilising Twitch as a platform for streaming on - wen access for Twitch?

We need to Lower the noise, & focus on the small group of people who are ready to engage. Meeting requirements for New Players.

B0gie

MetaGame Streaming - Should we make a Twitch Channel.

Michiel

Videos & MyMeta should be the focus. Shows us his Functional Map of the MetaGame.

Bacon

Talked to pETH got perms on the Notion, Added Admin field for each page. Add Admin access for contacting the relevant person to get access to stuffs!

Notion is a pain in the ass for the cost but we utilise the guest access & looking for alternatives to Notion very soon - Add & Manage Content. Maybe Obsidian maybe Airtable?

Notion Perms have been added & also the Github. Talked to the Reflexer Team w/ Fearless adding RAI to our pool one of the best stablecoins unpegged to the US dollar & backed by ETH. Has been pretty resolute for our Cloud Community & incentivising our pool of ungovernance pool token called FLX.

It’s exciting because they like our platform & it will bring more stability to our pool away from the $USD, buying into the pool to earn the farming rewards. pSEED conversation.

Need to connect up with Jeremy Balancer for RAI. (Which has been done).

FearlessThompson Explains

  • Treasury Proposal: https://forum.metagame.wtf/t/treasury-proposal-building-the-metagame-circular-economy/735/2
  • Arranged to AMAs with Babylon Finance & Reflexer Finance
  • Recorded Upskill sections for Guild Innkeeper videos & wrote the Video Descriptions also
  • Had a talk with the might @mZ regarding tokenomics on Sunday & recorded video that’ll be coming out soon & should help us guide our tokenomic decisions
  • Helped fill out the Video Content Threads with Useful Links (I think we should thread the whole Discord)

    • Michiel wasn’t getting full XP numbers last week

      • Michiel suggests that the easiest solution is to remove auto-activation and make #set-eth-address channel visible

S3W10 Champions Ring Call

Attendees: Michiel, Misanth, Gnomeski, peth, b0gie, Fearless Thompson, Bacon, penguin, Dave
Quick-ish Summary:
Much general discussion about value management was a theme. This ranged around XP Fairy development for monitoring fair value at MG esp in did-a-thing. Balancer V2 and other possibilities were discussed and a way forward sought for beginning an actionable flow in this regard.
Multisig permissions vote agreed to be made and more decentralised ownership of minting keys to software accounts and SEED account ownership to be transferred from Metadreamer to MG sigs.
Otherwise a general catch up with Champs looking at where help is needed. Updates on Mint process.
Agenda:

• b0gie
      Anchorman me and  wonfiddy loving Neos links into OBS and is free, VR studio, VR chat. Make virtual newsroom. Metanews.
      https://store.steampowered.com/app/740250/Neos_VR/
• Peth
    ◦ Shilling newsletter. Roles and raids. Roadmap timeline. Misanth and Bacon will help with that. 
    ◦ Raidguild coming in for Mymeta  Michiel will be there with peth to help greet/guide  them. 
• Misanth
    ◦ Smaller cohort only 2 peeps, both quite passionate 1 seems very confronting!  Could use a builder onboarder on the cohorts to explain tech stuff. Fearless -Youtube onboard vid, shorter codebase be useful? Maybe start at builders align 20 mins earlier for new people. Michiel agrees to this maybe half hr earlier. Add to Calendar​? Dual host for Friday as well? May break up flow with tech jargon etc penguin can come in before community calls Michiel will also give it a go. 
• penguin
      
    ◦ Mint stuff merkle root is done and seeds sent, Merkle root transaction failed for some reason maybe gas?? SEEDS were minted and waiting for update, send seeds to the UI. Lux made metafam fleek acc for hosting, now hammad needs to point the dns there still. Be done soon. New few days. Vote up for MCON about sponsoring them vote is for that, so they will get paid. Add Michiel and lux to multisig? Looking to move away from Aragon longer term cos of costs. Add a vote in voting channel to make transparent. Multisig is main thing for speed and efficiency.
    ◦ NTFA launch with lots of freebies at the NTFA discord server. 
      https://discord.gg/AQnCXemW


• michiel
       Good no further help needed.
• Fearless Thompson
      
    ◦ Help wanted for vids and internal comms in general, more vid help. Creating twitter schedule for headhunting. Anna is helping for twitter schedule. Retention is super important.
• Dave
      
    ◦  No help needed, slow week at home working, 
• Bacon 
      
    ◦ SEED pool is currently owned by MD directly atm. Make new pool on Balancer V2 maybe for extra benefits still possible. Roadmapping is a collab thing do that is helped already. Discussion went into extra time, further discussed below.

Discussion:
• Did a thing being misused, poor focus and noisy posts. Evergreen quests do include IRL general improvements such as cleaning up a beach or whatever though.
• XP Fairies maybe go through list once a week together? So then no individual is a villain. Also discussion about initiatives and XP Fairies should understand this better, seems hard to see how these work these days. Michiel is into spending an hr a week on this with penguin. Time is made weds at 4 am EST.
Discussion about future of the pool. Have to develop it but fears around effects on the pool, price, split pools, maybe we should jump straight to DAOHaus, in which case we should not make 2 jumps.

Maybe we can add RAI to phase 2 so that us delaying with Reflexer is more palatable/ understandable. Then we make changes all at once.
Bacon saying this was originally to stabilise things rn but, cos we have a bull run now it makes it look like we are stronger again, but another bear run and SEED will plummet so we need stability asap.

It has also been voted for so we should do it for that reason? Maybe we can do a more detailed explanation of pros and cons before a final vote or at least in an exploratory way.

Metadreamer needs consulting on a number of aspects of this and to transfer ownership of access to a decentralised multisig form. Is acting as resident expert.

A doc to be created about all pros and cons of each pool change idea. For full transparency and better understanding.

Balancer V2 does want to happen and is a great opportunity to add RAI.

https://docs.balancer.fi/developers/guides/pool-creation

Checklist of what needs to happen as a workflow for this process will be developed further by Bacon and Fearless. Discussion, call for multisig members also is agreed is wanted to get this going more.

S3W11 Champions Ring 30 August 2021

Attendees : defileZebra, Michiel, Misanth, penguin, chair, Rankko, AnnaKaic, Bacon, Bagholder Mcfomo III, Tommy

Summary:

  • We need to get Penguin reimbursed for sponsorship cost paid on Metagame’s behalf for Mcon
  • We welcome a few new Octos to the Champions Guild, AnnaKaic and Rankko.eth!
  • Remaining open question: what about that Balancer migration proposal?

Agenda :

  • Ideally, this agenda would be built on the “help needed” portion of the Guild-n-raid updates channel.

Discussion:

  • Penguin would like to be on record as not being a fan of this time
  • Penguin to get on the bill for Mcon Penguin put out the $5k
  • Multi-sig is 3 of 6
    • Metadreamer objected to doing 3 of 7 signers due to concerns over security (being less than 50%?) so we remain at 3 of 6.
  • In lieu of items noted as needing help from guild and raid reports, we will go round table to each champion starting from the top
  • Chair
    • Still needs some help working out how to distribute cred equitably amongst writers of future playbooks
    • Held meeting thurs and last sat, at this point it looks something like:
      • Focus on getting writers up to speed with using github
        • onboarding a single non-technical player is estimated to take at least an hour
      • PRs will then be picked by playbook builder for a single batch commit per week
        • Dev submits the PR and writers get cred within the PR by being tagged
        • What this still doesn’t account for is 1 page versus 5-10 page playbook
    • Michiel shared that Luxumbra had reached out reference to this-
      • Michiel believes that the easiest way is let writers make the playbook in markdown and builder can submit the PR
      • However, XP would be divided equally (50% per player for 2, 33% per player for 3, etc.)
        • Similar challenge to development PRs in that not all efforts within the PR may be equal
        • For example, if someone did 80% of lifting but tags a single contributor, they would then split all XP rewarded in half
      • What about just putting playbooks into did-a-thing?
        • Chair likes that suggestion
      • Can easily export into markdown, so don’t even need actually know how to use markdown
  • Welcome 2 new champions that jumped in just after started: AnnaKaic and Rankko.eth
    • Hi! Nice to have you
  • Michiel
    • Supporting new builders with Builder’s guild meeting 30 minutes earlier
      • This was mentioned in the newsletter: will start a half hour earlier for new builders.
    • Then at normal starting time will plan to go over issues
    • Will aim to give new builders give them small easy tasks to work on.
      • Maybe split some bigger items up amongst multiple people
  • Penguin
    • After mint, a few players had json issues. Spent some time troubleshooting and confirms that cache had been cleared and tests failed on multiple browsers within the same machine.
      • Limited number of complaints but will circle back this week
      • Michiel suggests that we take a look at the latest commit of erc20 redeemable and see if there are any sus changes outlined there
    • Minting numbers were different than what Metadreamer was expecting.
      • Numbers were a little off, like 1-2%
    • Michiel wants to re-run the whole process and review it
      • Old calcs thrown out and MetaDreamer’s numbers matched the seed totals, and were used for the mint
    • MCon sponsorship in 2 weeks with MetaCartel in Denver.
      • Will be working the event for Divine Pixel Society (spelling?).
      • Personally paid for MetaGame sponsorship out of pocket after vote passed because of time constraint.
        • Transaction was done within a loan via CREAM so currently paying APR on the loaned funds
        • Getting reimbursed- Since Eth is in the Aragon DAO will likely cost $200 to reimburse from there
        • Other option suggested was that Peth has some Metagame eth in his wallet.
          • Maybe he can it from that part for less gas expense?
          • Penguin will reach out to Peth
    • XP fairy meeting last week and will have another tomorrow at Midnight, PST
      • Anyone can join the XP fairy meeting.
    • Critical note on funds put into claim contract accidentally:
      • If enacting a vote for minting, seeds must go to the multi-sig.
      • Seed should not be sent to claim contract directly
  • Misanth
    • The biggest problem as Misanth sees it today is defining what kind of people we ant as players versus patrons.
      • Similar to personas like FearlessThompson was working on
      • Need to clarify exactly what kind of people we want here, otherwise its mixed signals
      • Not like skillset but in terms of motivations.
      • What kind of players or patrons do we want?
        • Once defined we can more effectively incent
      • Rankko- Need to keep a balance
        • Wants to propose mandatory introduction for curios octos. Would like to put them on the spot and have folks explain how they found metagame.
        • Penguin- to be engaging as an engaged octo, one can’t just be consuming but actively contributing
      • Michiel- can we make an introduction template?
        • yes
      • Internal guildkeepers should meet up prior to mint to review engagement
      • Penguin- doing something is our measure.
        • Should be able to demonstrate something in their field.
  • Rankko
    • Will be an Innkeeper deputy and Tommy will be champion
    • Need to sort out incentives for innkeeping
      • Hard to track effort and measure results
      • Will be discussed in detail on Wednesday Innkeepers align 330p UTC.
    • Decide some amount of XP and active innkeepers make a list
      • DefileZebra: sounds like this might be a good example where an initiative is needed to award XP
      • Misanth: new UI for initiatives is coming, but would initiatives be a good place to recognize the effort
    • At the beginning or end of the meeting go round robin and give props similar to a few other DAOs?
    • Michiel shared that they are not a big fan of props
    • Penguin- We should be trying to show how the system works rather than creating a separate work flow
    • Rankko would like to propose a new role for use within the innkeeper’s guild: “librarian”
      • Under that role you will understand metagame and wiki and be able to guide people on contributing content.
      • Make this one step before innkeeper
    • Re-approach each guild as every guild has an innkeeper.
      • Should be aligned so can communicate in a more detailed fashion
        • have a follow-up and clear path
        • Innkeepers now need to know how that octo is progressing and be able to follow-up on activity
      • Anna- Likes the idea of doing a follow-up to get feedback to see understand and continue improving onboarding efforts
      • Presentation for new octos from Misanth
        • Misanth shared that there is a structure, just no presentation
        • DAOist preso might be usable for onboarding?
        • Anna will send to Misanth
  • Bacon
    • Been engaged on other things recently but planning to double down
    • Wanted to check in on where we are with balancer pool migration but without Peth or MetaDreamer present it seems like we don’t have the right audience.
      • Anyone have any updates to share on this item?
        • Crickets
  • Anna
    • Attending as a deputy of Shiller’s guild
    • Here to help promote the things on twitter!
    • Had Shiller’s guild meeting last week and decided we should diversify social media
      • Structure for outer communications versus internal
      • Gather analytics to see reaction to our message
    • Currently attending Crypto Commons Gathering in Austria and will be doing a workshop on MetaGame and writing playbooks
  • DefileZebra
    • Will be available for this new meeting time going forward
    • However, will be travelling in late September and will likely reach out in the next week with dates that I will be looking for help covering with meeting notes/facilitation of this meeting

    • Shall we do opening/closing ceremony?

    • Headhunters- Sounds like Chair will pick this up

  • Addressing changes for Aragon/ and the very high cost of creating a reimbursement request
  • Bacon on trying to catch up with MetaDreamer at mCon
    • Do we have a question list?
    • DefileZebra encouraged Bacon to sync up with Penguin on this topic, there may already be a list. If not would be good to have them on the same page
  • Misanth
    • Had another cohort recently that went well and wrapping up the presentation that is given to the curios/engaged Octos.
    • Who owns the Doing Gud wallet?

      • Some activity in the wallet on etherscan
      • Has 330 seed to be claimed
  • Jumping into the rabbit hole of trying to sort out who owns the keys to the address where the Doing Gud funds have been made available to claim also brought up a question about Gitcoin GTC tokens in Peth’s wallet.
    • Last update was that Peth needed to sort out which of those were his personally versus GTC for MetaGame. Sought out Owocki but is still unclear
    • This still needs to be addressed and I can only assume that Peth stuck on mute or was distracted from the call. Crickets
    • These GTC should ultimately be moved to the DAO or the multi-sig

      • This is why we don’t have any layer 2 pools

    • Group chat about seed minting wrote up guide on seed minting…. has all the steps
    • Discussion on path forward for the DAO, moving beyond Aragon and using Zodiax from Gnosis since it works with existing DAO tooling.
      • Should eventually move to that.
    • Aragon released off chain voting with on chain governance
    • A few different paths we could take
    • Liquidity pool in balancer
      • In control of p1…would need a proxy to migrate ownership
      • Migrate v2 pool and then move to multi-sig
    • Need to figure out l2 strategy
      • Arbitrum can move seed over
      • Arbitrum is not supported by Gnosis
      • Arbtitrum bridge will allow you transfer token, and Metadreamer was able to do it with seed
        • No longer needs whitelisted
    • We may want to do Aragon govern migration for incentive of free Aragon tokens
    • Give multisig ownership over Aragon DAO and then change multi-sig to change on snapshot votes
      • Can control the DAO through off chain voting and then through Gnosis safe
    • Soft inexpensive offchain votes- quorum is almost impossible…Aragon govern
    • Sourcecred question from Micheil
      • Multiple loopback variable set to 1
        • Interval is 1 week
      • 20 seeds per week per active contributor
      • Interval is used for balanced distribution
        • will lookback X weeks based on configuration
        • Eventually for the really old contributions we don’t want to continue to reward year old contributions
        • Set to 1 is not ideal because the balanced policy looks to distribute seeds for any inconsistencies in the minting policy over time
      • Set it to 24 in recent PR… so 6 months is the timeline for fixing inconsistencies
    • Claim page is still broken for some players
      • Json broken so page never loads
      • Impacting Bagsie, KyleStargarden and SandyMagical
    • Gnomeski cannot access 200 seeds from blocked eth address
      • Michiel added this to group chat…possibly 2 solutions according to Misanth

    • Next 2-3 days will need help engaging with twitter

  • FearlessThompson
    • Wants to sync with Peth after Lisbon
    • Posted a draft presentation in champions ring that can be edited and possibly used for funding purposes
      • No super organized structure yet, but will work with him to get that on shared notion
    • Completion of more video
      • Some are recorded and need to be chopped up
    • Look at restructuring
      • Wants to focus efforts on the future
        • My Meta, MG money market, making more token utility
      • Have another doc creating for another proposal
        • Proposals have been a mixed bag
        • Some things we are doing today should be reduced in priority

  • Misanth
    • https://meta-game.notion.site/Landing-Path-138d9241c7a1452083ff46545f9af05d
    • Landing in discord works
      • Sometimes people get a role and sometimes they don’t
    • Only with one channel they see
      • After passing captcha
      • 3 phase unlocking based on reactions
      • Will need builders help
    • Timer for engaged octo role
    • If we do not want engaged octo by reaction, then have a bot to notify onboarders
    • Auto-activation is back?
      • Michiel- we calculate the total number of seeds distributed by number of active players in the period (over 20XP generated in the period) and if engaged octo is not activated but generated more than 20 XP then it would reduce the total amount of seed available to distribute overall
        • Could translate to less contributors but splitting seed across more octos
      • Change the channel is Michiel’s suggestion
        • so that only players can register an eth address
      • Michiel says activated when calculating distribution, not at registeration
        • Misanth says activating at register
          • Green light on the explorer
        • Penguin- if someone can set eth address they can get active
          • Lots of manual activation and deactivation
          • Generate XP regardless of eth address being set
          • Script shouldn’t activate everyone, probably
        • Cannot gate set eth address channel bc then SourceCred cannot see the channel
      • Shouldn’t put engaged octos on the ledger for minting automatically
      • Rebooted the bot recently and that may have unintentionally driven a change
        • Metadreamers account was suddenly split up for an unknown reason
    • Something we had previously agreed upon through a vote is suddenly broken
  • Penguin
    • Caught up on a few channels
    • Michiel has been trained as much as anyone can be for the mint and would be a good candidate to be XP Fairey champion
    • Want to mint at least 3 months of seed this time around, will be a forum post
      • In a small group talking about next steps
      • L2 solutions and bridging a whole bunch of seeds over to l2
    • Mint in batch and distribute over x, would make it more smoothly going forward
    • Bags- Nothing more than Aragon vote to get started?
    • Tenfinney- obvious question, will they all go for players or will there be an opportunity for someone to take them?
      • will all go to the multi-sig
    • Set aside for sweat equity, follow structured voting for draw out of treasury
      • Budgeting?
      • How would this be done, vote?
  • Tenfinney
    • FearlessThompson’s proposal is the best way to go about it
    • Playbooks
      • Will come from session with Tommy and running locally with chakra elements at 7A PST on Thursdays
      • Set up proxy accounts and loaded with matic
      • Do pair programming that fires a hook in discord

Trying again at 4p UTC

Summary:

  • Today’s meeting got out of hand when an ongoing dispute boiled over and resulted in rude and disrespectful communication. On the heels of that, this scribe and Champions Ring meeting master has shared their intent to move into a patron role.
  • Expect more clarification on the path to becoming a champion and expectations therein. I do hope that a code of conduct can also be ratified between all players beyond “don’t be an asshole”

Attendees : Anna, Michiel, DefileZebra, tommy, Peth, tenfinney, Misanth, Hbesso31, FearlessThompson, penguin, bagholder Mcfomo III, rankko.eth

Discussion :

  • Wickbot
    • Have a few bots conflicting with each other
      • Collabland
      • Carlbot
      • Nothing from wick
      • disconference
    • Whats the most basic captcha bot?
    • Wick Support was engaged by Penguin
    • Maybe its time for a Bot cleanup?
    • May need to remove Wick and use another bot for captcha
    • Patron !join is done with collabland
    • Penguin looked into it and had permissions nerfed, penguin added permissions back
      • The “Verify” channel shouldn’t have everyone in it
      • Penguin sent a message in premium support
    • Easy way to implement a temporary captcha?
      • Mee6 can do it
    • Managing IDs for existing players needs to happen before mint, Tommy made a list of players that need to be removed
      • Michiel reviewed list and most addresses are in the ledger, engaged octos shouldn’t be getting seed minted
      • Easy list of all players now? 89 players
    • Recently observed 2 bots updating ledger and one is using old repo “the source”
      • Add eth addresses in “the game” repo
      • Still has the other one, not sure if updates
    • This may be the reason that metadreamer got split
    • Ten’s 4 ids have been merged but not in the repo yet (just locally) will merge
  • Tommy asks Fearless to Fuck off
    • Shit devolves
    • Both players had to be server muted temporarily because talking over each other
  • Link to durgadas non violent communication was shared
  • DefileZebra
    • Shared 2 week notice of intent to transition from Player to Patron
      • Champions Ring will need someone to run the meeting and take notes (if still desired) effective November 22.
      • If a scribe is desired for community calls, someone else will need to step up into that role. There are a couple informational cards in Notion about the role and some of the procedures as established.
      • Does intend to stick around to help with playbooks while Gnomeski finishes move
    • Today’s incident reminded me that we still have not ratified a code of conduct. Clearly, we need more formal and explicit terms upon which we should engage others because we are not on the same page about the appropriate level of respect required here.
      • Sidenote: My apologies for lecturing grown ass adults on the call about my disappointment in the behavior of a few. I appreciate those that have reached out directly, but at this point I feel confident in my decision.
  • Michiel
    • Activating people- do we activate patrons for mint?
    • Patron left as active
    • Next distribution up later today
  • Peth
    • Bummer updates first:
      • We need to add some clarification on the Champion role
        • Someone made Vyvy-vi a champion without asking him or introducing champions.
        • One cannot appoint another champion without acceptance
      • How should it work?
        • Review with other champions and formally introduce them
    • Reached out to builders that left and asked for feedback. 80% things that can do better and 20% cant improvement
      • Payment doesn’t compete
      • Bothered him that timezones are too early
      • Bad project management
        • Not many good first issues
        • Tiny bug fixes to clean up after SR devs, but nothing good for new members to pick up
      • Profiles are hung up with a single developer
      • Bad coordination- no penalty for missing or being late for a meeting
      • Hard to feel excited when peoples time are not respected
      • Feels like a project without a deadline
      • Main priority is appearing busy
      • No fulltime lead developer or fulltime project manager

      • People stop doing what they say they will do
      • Need to come up with a plan to address this
        • Setup deadline for people picking up issues
        • Michiel: Write a guide on how to commit stuff. When to commit, how big are your commits?
      • Doing stuff with aragon and 1hive and everyone has the same issues coming up with sourcecred
    • Penguin asked if we can get Dysbulic help with ceramic and profiles?
      • Maybe Huxwell, but they are focused on quadratic voting
    • Maybe we can ask Ceramic do a workshop with us post-release?
    • Next point

    • Made a proposal in champions ring for headhunting
    • Peth feedback was to not focus on universities yet

    • Set aside seed pre-mint and save gas costs
    • Do we mint on mainnet and bridge it or mint a big chunk on mainnet and bridge it

  • Still working through mint, most recently some issues with Aragon not displaying
  • Bacon has created a new pool on Polygon and is currently working through the price feed display
  • Bagholder Mcfomo III will facilitate the Champions Ring calls on an interim basis until a more permanent resource is secured

Proposed Agenda :

  • Anna needs a shilling deputy (05 min)
  • Meeting logistics (10 min)
    • Meeting times all good?

Discussion :

  • Playbooks spec exists here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OZlidtGFbhNFb6aKnEJBR7ycnduXamChaW2s8pchdzE/edit#
    • Peth will circle back with RG to see if any of the cohort taking it up.
    • We don’t want to start a bounty and open that can of worms
    • Playbooks UI is not a top priority, but thought this was a great idea to get it to finish quickly without distracting builders
    • Wanted RG to build, but Taekikz was excited about new changes with next cohort and feeding it to them
    • Tenfinney second idea: old cohort worked on fractal project, try to get existing RG to work it
  • Mint
    • Michiel put up the vote in discord a week ago
    • Penguin thought we would be minting a large batch
    • Seed minting channel- anything holding it back? wanted to put it up but aragon wouldn’t load. Would retry again tonight??
    • We need a Mint deputy
    • Peth comment: pretty frustrating that this is the most persistent problem that we have had. Tough to solicit investors without sticking to schedule
  • Liquidity
    • Bacon, not a huge fan of Balancer, but people are so extraordinarily helpful
    • Still need price feed in the new pool
      • Spoke to Balancer and we need to get a price feed from Coingecko
      • Coingecko needs to update to new polygon contract address
        • Just a circle
    • Ten created a Gitcoin and ENS pool on polygon
      • Using the same price oracles
      • Coin gecko only looks at pricing from the main chain
      • Take the address of the polygon smart contract into their feed
      • Doesn’t look right on the pool, but you don’t get the graphs
      • Coingecko will accept authorized blog post to claim address
    • submitted request to Coin Gecko
      • As long as polygon address is on the CG page then Balancer will show it
    • Balancer is the price oracle for Seed, but they want an entry in Coingecko
    • Have the polygon pool ready
      • Put in request to polygon scan
    • Assuming that people want to wait until next bridge
      • Remove lp from mainnet pool at next mint?
    • Peth: Bridging party in the midweek storming party?
      • Metagame LP needs bridged
      • Add a bit of seeds and a bit of eth
      • Bacon- Wednesday evening is highest gas times so maybe not midweek storming
    • Reflexer retweeted about us a few hours ago
      • Currently less than 200k RAI on polygon
      • Focused on mainchain and onto curve
      • Community is all about building bridges
    • Bacon: Push between poly, RAI and us to bridge more RAI onto polygon
      • Creating giant money vaccum, makes us the main source of RAI on polygon
    • defileZebra suggests giving at least a week to schedule bridging party to engage old patrons
    • Bacon: Cant onboard people in the space with gas like this
  • Anna looking for a shilling deputy
    • Who to ask?
    • Reliability!
    • Filter in my meta: look at settlers
    • YAPDAO community call on Tuesday- Anna will attend
    • Finishing strategy for the season will publish soon
  • Meeting logistics
    • New scribe?
    • Hbesso31: consider being a coach?
    • Bagsie fill in on a temporary basis
      • Maybe engage JonathonP?
    • KPIs tie into roadmap calls with setting goals and KPIs
  • Hbesso31
    • CTO builders champion?
    • Stated defined- have them attend Friday meetings
  • Misanth
    • Showing onboarding flow and new signpost info
      • Bacon: Mandalorian meme
      • Tenfinney: at the crossroads and we throw a lot at people
      • Peth: numbered instead of check boxes before crossroads
      • Bagsie: feedback link to crossroads is not clearly a link “continue to the crossroads”
      • Make patron/player bigger and add an “or” or “choose one of the following”
      • Move this to innkeeper’s call
