Discussion:

  • Chair is stretched very thin and lacks bandwidth, desperately needs someone to champion playbooks
    • Good news that we arrived at later in the call: Playbooks will roll under Writers Guild. Gnomeski (and DefileZebra for the next few weeks during the move) will pick this up.
  • DefileZebra
    • asked for clarification: Are we trying to recreate the wheel or is there an opportunity to simply curate a list of tutorials and how-to docs?
      • A: For rainmaking efforts, the preference would be producing our own content. Possibly like testimonials.
    • There is a conflict here- we are asking those that are doing shit in the space to stop doing shit to write guides. The people with the info we want to capture and make accessible are especially busy. See for example our friend, chair.
  • ApeironCreations
  • Tenfinney
    • Could make >30 playbooks from ethglobal resources

    • understanding of the effort was not a unified voice of metagame but more of a “this is how I did it”
    • Not something you have to research, but something you know
  • DefileZebra: Need to define:
    • Audience
    • Goal
    • Topic
  • Gnomeski: goal is 2-3 minute read; concise fast capture direct educational
  • Goals for session next week-
    • brainstorm a list of specific players and what they have accomplished and do an invite
    • Create a format for DM
    • Get on miro and list players
    • Identify the Audience and Goal to help assist with content production for each item/topic
