but there are 152 cards per year
sure
what i mean is, 1 group could get together to vote for a specific card etc etc..
you get it back
I will say though I will have faith on TDH cause I see it's like gold rn. I am assuming once those points are used you can't get them back
at any point in time there will be a set of cards to vote on
and?
but example at some point there was a Naka clan VS Sgt Pepe clan
seems unlikely
someone is going to make a deal with @[BatSoupYum] to get votes in order to get a 0.1ETH kickback?
there is a lot of TDH in the hands of people who are post economic
hopefully not
we'll see
our biggest issue tbh will be people forming coalitions to vote together
"sell me this pencil"
people love to be sold to... if it is relevant, timely and expected.
one can hang out here and have fun without being on the leaderboard
also nobody is forced to submit a meme card
nervous is good
this is like banning the Champion's League and fans in stadiums because only 1 team wins at the end and everyone else loses
"artists having feelings about art competitions" is not a resolvable problem and I am not sure it is even a problem
Oh 1000%
I am crazy gratetful. This is the biggest and most amazing thing to ever happen to me in Web3
IT's a MASSIVE day
hard to read that as 'I was totally relaxed"
you just told us we had to ban the group
....
Who is putting words in mouths now lol!
bc he was nervous
wondering why you felt you couldnt chat?
maybe that is true, but moving the conversation to memes-chat will just move the issue and make it worse
Let me put it another way
I LOVE this community
I spend a lot of time here
As soon as I was on the leaderboard, it became almost impossible to talk about anything other than the leaderboard
The vote permates everything
Maybe that's just me
But it became hard to just come and hang out
Now that's ok
But when one of the best chatters in here
Is driven away from the chat
It's just a moment to reflect on
Maybe there's nothing useful there - we are super early
But I offer it up as an observation
it is counter productive
tbh i dont think shilling make ppl win anyway
which is "The Memes - Main Stage"
it is designed for chatting about the topic at hand
who says it is designed for shilling
This chat is designed for shilling
:)
do not have a leaderboard
even though foundation and superrare and manifold
how many times i have been shilled art in my DMs
you may be surprised to hear
they will shill in memes-chat
but as @[arsonic] says if we ban conversation here
bc it is annoying and won't work
no we should socially guide away from shilling
feels backwards to be like "sorry, too much conversation in the wrong place"
now that everyone is here and engaged
:)
ignoring me here
and all of you were in discord and twitter DMs
when I was here talking to myself
i am old enough to remember (a few weeks ago)
all we are going to do is getting in the way of what everyone else wants to naturally do
the artists are going to feel any less nervous about the leaderboard
and I am not sure if we move this chat to memes-chat
i have a hesitation to say "we are not chatting in the approved location"
here in this chat
we have good conversations happening
hmm dunno
Anyway, on to my thoughts
My main feedback from this experience is the tyranny of the leaderboard. It dominated my experience of the community this past 2 weeks
I see artists feeling very worried that they are not "doing enough" to get exposure and a bit of chat about shilling
I would like to suggest that we consider locking the Main Stage for comments - no more comments
and ban shilling in the Memes-Chat
so that all there is are art submissions, chat about pieces within each submission, and the leaderboard
So all artists can submit and relax. They have done the thing. There is no need to worry about "anything else I can do for visibility"
Not 100% sure about this but interested
bc it is inevitable
we need to be comfortable with it
it will inevitably be part of the process here too
