Discussion:

  • This week’s community call we have 2 things scheduled, Liminal Village and Opolis
  • Season ends next week, but we have one more Champions Ring call next Monday within season 3
    • Shall we do opening/closing ceremony?
    • Yes, but speaker/workshop/activity is still tbd. What ideas do you have?
  • Peth asked for help identifying missing champions:
    • Headhunters- Sounds like Chair will pick this up
    • Meeting Master- Bacon will continue but not terribly excited by the role
  • FearlessThompson
    • looking for help this week on several items and focusing on marketing assets for NFT Tokeneers and Balancer V2 migration explainer/info
  • 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?
      • 0x32aF096d6d479e3d022caAF3603A7306706D10A8
      • 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
  • Bacon:
    • Michiel talking about Aragon upgrade- ownership transfer?
    • Link to wallet address in the doing good address entrty

    • will not be available next Monday
    • balancer pool v2?
      • Pin down some multi-signers this week?
    • Voted to add RAI- not easy on v1
      • New pool for the next phase
    • Tommy- Sidechain?
      • On abritrum
    • Multiple pools?
      • Donating through giveth …xdai would be cheapest
      • Giveback tokens has not kicked off yet
    • V2 balancer on mainnet and have that be primary and then make a sidepool on xdai and polygon
      • V2 mainnet will have 3 coins
  • Peth
    • Problem with other pools is that it will prevent airdrop on new token
      • This is why we don’t have any layer 2 pools
  • Tenfinney
    • That’s what he did, bought a bunch of matic and bridged it one time and they stay on polygon sidechain
    • Keep the seed on v1 at 4%, then incentivize patrons to create a new pool
  • Bacon
    • Bake a new pool in v2 and have everyone move over to v2

    • 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

      • 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
      • Rest of templates will make some playbooks out of them
      • FearlessThompson would like to see playbooks focus on curation, instead of creating new content send players to best resources possible
    • Penguin- has clients for that would like to talk about that but will be on Whale community speaking at that time
    • Add slides for CV to BAM deck
  • Tommy
    • Working on typeforms in chakra ui making entry questionnaire

S4W8 Champions Ring 08 November 2021

Attendees : DefileZebra, Hbesso31, tommy, Anna, Misanth

Discussion :

  • Tommy
    • Community roadmap has 7 workshops in the season, a few that volunteered and a few dropped out
    • Wickbot issues getting people in duplicate
      • Vyvy-vi will be stepping away and won’t be able to complete Sherpa bot
  • Anna
    • Metamanifesto NFTs

Some confusion about time and we will meet at 4p UTC today instead of 3P UTC as scheduled

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

      • 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

    • Penguin asked if we can get Dysbulic help with ceramic and profiles?
      • Maybe Huxwell, but they are focused on quadratic voting

S4W10 Champions Ring
22 November 2021

Attendees: Bagholder McFomo III, Peth, Misanth, Chair, Anna, Bacon, HBesso31, Peth, Penguin

Chair announces his return to active duty, offers to resume his prior role as Playbooks Champion. Will speak later with Misanth to get back up to speed.

HBesso31 asks about picking up Headhunting. Peth suggests looking to Internal Guilds for new players.

Penguin announces changes to the signatories on the (Eth mainnet) multi-sig. Luxumbra is in and Alec is out. Suggests further updating may be wanted in the near future. Also announces that minting will take place on Polygon later in the day.

Anna informs that Shillers’ Guild plans to host a PR workshop with YAP DAO on “Better Shilling.” Asking when best to schedule it. (Later decided on Dec. 7)

Misanth says the previous week’s cohort call went well. Announced the “Fake Value Feed” and “Heat Reports” channels are fully functional now. Introduced his completed “Welcome to Metagame” “Raid Map” and “Dungeon Runs” pages on notion.

Peth has updated "How to Champion. HBesso31 asks about having Champions stake seed to ensure their reliability. Peth and Penguin discuss options for rewarding Champions, Misanth creates a poll in “Voting.”

Peth also informs of some mishaps with listing MetaManifesto NFTs. Penguin offers to advise later.

Bagholder McFomo III asks to discuss details of the upcoming mint. Penguin asks about RAI liquidity on Polygon, Bagholder advises that it’s less than $200k and mostly tied up in pools with somewhat suspect pairs, not sure if obstacle or opportunity. Penguin suggests we bridge RAI along with Eth and Seed.

Bacon says he’s not sure if the incentives or liquidity previously offered by Reflexer would still be available to us as a long time has passed but will look into it a bit.

Call adjourned to conduct mint.

S4W11 Champions Ring
29 November 2021

Attendees: Bagholder McFomo III, Michiel, Misanth, Anna, Luxumbra, HBesso31, penguin, Pronoia, Apeiron Creations

HBesso31 Is actively headhunting and has set himself a KPI of 12 DMs daily. Says encouraging results so far. Asks Michiel about what kinds of devs are needed, Michiel says more front-end devs. Typescript, GraphSQL or Ceramic skills would be nice.

Michiel Says lots going on with builders. Lately working on the dashboard with lots of contributors. Hopes to report more by end of season. Ceramic integrations coming along. Working with Luxumbra on next mint, feels it’s nearly ready. Misanth wants to confirm player activations before pushing, Michiel asks for a list to work from and will need it quickly.

Pronoia has been transcribing, caught two meetings last week.

Tommy Getting back on the horse. Thanks Misanth for his work inn-keeping and onboarding. Says Rankko hasn’t been around and will need a new deputy.

Anna Also needs a deputy. Plans for the meeting with YapDao are going well, currently is shilling it. Pushed ahead on the previous unfinished DAO Personas raid.

Luxumbra Working as the Mint Deputy with Michiel. Trying to make sure that mint comes out on time. Is also looking to help in other ways outside of building.

Misanth says the Shilling Board, Content Factory and Headhunting pages on Notion need work, needs to determine whether to archive or update. Will try to catch up with responsible Champions.

penguin I’m not doing anything.

Bagsy wants to talk for a minute about last week’s minting, bridging, pool-splashing. Tommy asks about Doing Good Fund (DGF) and whether the allocated funds will be distributed this mint. Apeiron says the multi-sig is holding 20 Seeds for DGF, but he’s not sure how to move the funds along. Bagsy thought it was $5000 in Seeds that was meant to be distributed. Penguin says that the Seeds for DGF are in the polygon multi-sig as DGF’s wallet is a contract address and won’t have the same address on Polygon, not sure if we’ll need to bridge or not.

Bagsy, Lux and Misanth Discuss experiences with offramping assets to fiat from Polygon through centralized exchanges. Consensus is that it works.

Bagsy says the pool is still unbalanced with approximately 2:1:1 ratio in dollar value instead of the intended 3:1:1. Misanth says we still have approximately 6000 seeds we can add to the pool.

Luxumbra wants to set a time for the Bridging Party. 6pm UTC on Sunday, 5 December is decided on.

Hbesso31 wants to ask about what happens when a player rage quits the server - and their contributions are lost. Misanth says that their emojis from the past become worthless. Michiel says that players can be penalized retroactively for lost XP. Hbesso asks what happens if a player intentionally removes their work from Notion or other places. Misanth says they can be rolled back on Notion. Bagsy wonders if we want to add a notification to the onboarding docs that if a player creates something for MetaGame, then it belongs to the DAO. Asks for thoughts about “It’s mine and I don’t want to share it anymore,” vs “We paid for it, we can use it how we want.” Penguin says he sees it as non-exclusive rights.

Hbesso31 The newsletter says something about onboarding 1 million people? Misanth says he doesn’t know.

Call adjourned.

S4W12 Champions Ring
6 December 2021

Attendees: Bagholder McFomo III, Michiel, Misanth, Anna, Luxumbra, HBesso31, penguin, Peth, Apeiron Creations, Gnomeski

HBesso31 says has found 2 experienced project managers who may be willing to join full-time.

penguin helped with pSeed migration, added Lux and removed Alec from multi-sig. More changes possible.

Gnomeski is trying to catch bak up after moving house and being under the weather, plans to talk to Peth to get up to speed.

tenfinney talks about playbook production flow on Notion. Points out that Notion isn’t tracked by SourceCred, so we need to remember to mention the work on Discord. Tommy asks if using github for this process will remain more profitable. Tenfinney suggests they look into it together.

Tommy says new bots and roles have been really helpful, will begin working on purge soon. Still needs deputy. Tenfinney offers to help.

Anna YapDao event is tomorrow. Prizes for the memeathon are determined, wants to clarify where funds come from. Group discussion settles on using the Polygon network multi-sig wallet. Tenfinney explains how petty cash is handled in traditional business, suggests it would be useful for ongoing real-world expenses.

Peth asks if the Doin’ Gud Fund multi-sig wallet has been set up yet. Misanth said not yet, still looking for a few signatories.

Bagsy wonders where the $Seeds assigned to MetaFam DAO are located. Peth says they’re in the Aragon treasury and that any seeds that were distributed by merkle claim are probably still in the claim contract.

Tenfinney suggests using snapshot for votes in future. Also suggests that verbal votes that take place in Champions’ Guild should be given a period of time for guild members to ask their champions for explanation or changes.

Luxumbra updates on minting. Says he plans to check the calculation tomorrow. Needs to activate Pvblic Vniversal Friend. Aims to mint on the 21st, will send directly to prepared bridge wallet then on to the polygon multi-sig. Will update minting guide.

Misanth says cohort, Notion, bots, are all fine. Wants to know about headhunting: what type of people are being sought and in what numbers? Hbesso says he’s been hunting devs and PMs and Dave has asked him to look out for designers as well. Also suggests that the current onboarding flow isn’t great for builders. The cohort call is on Fridays but they need to also attend a Builders’ Align call which is 5 days later, on Wednesdays. Bagsy asks if this subject can be delegated to Innkeepers.

Misanth asks if it would be alright to give Champions permissions to assign roles.

Call is adjourned to begin Not Cool Call
