WIP 9: WAGDIE Community Recognition Awards

[hersilence.eth]

I would be pleased in the future to see these tokens distributed in many wallets reflecting broad community participation. It’s such an excellent experience for people to participate in governance.

I love the idea of incentivizing conclave representative participation.

This would be an excellent use for a soulbound token; only attainable through participation, not trading. However, no need to overcomplicate it. Simply thinking out loud.

Conclave Crescent

Yaaaaaaaaay!!!

So, if The Two are agreeable to the idea of conclave determining its own distribution of this Concord Token, can we not just solve the distribution method by the conclave running public votes for distribution and The Two abides by airdropping them like any other token?

Does it need to be any more complicated than that?

Edit: If there’s a complication or exploit I’m overlooking, do let me know.

[Icculus]

My suggestion was giving a set supply to a conclave controlled wallet for distribution.

[KingOffling]

Yah. No reason that doesn’t work.
How many, tho?

[Icculus]

I suggested 36 initially which equals 6 months of distribution.

[Dontfeedthewolf]

@josiah.peace there seems to be a lot for you to consider

It appears there have been mention of certain tools that would be at disposal for this proposal.

@Icculus

My suggestion was giving a set supply to a conclave controlled wallet for distribution.

Recommendation of a conclave wallet/gnosis/multisig being setup to receive.

@Icculus

I suggested 36 initially which equals 6 months of distribution.

Suggestion of requesting up to 36 tokens to start for 6 months of distribution, if 6 were to be dispersed each month.

& overlooking the above proposal, I am thinking you have already read these comments and made edits to the initial proposal? Curious how you as the author are feeling about the proposal and if there are any further edits you wish to make.

ABSTRACT

Awarding 6 community members with a Token of Concord (ToC) each, every WAGDIE Conclave cycle (6 weeks).

MOTIVATION

The Two started their ToC distribution as a reward to community members for their notable work and this spirit of generosity and gratitude is a practice that needs to be carried forward. The WAGDIE community is full of ardent artists, skillful storytellers and brilliant builders whose products and creations deserve to be celebrated and awarded concretely.

RATIONALE

Why ToCs? The first ToCs were handed out individually by the Two with the implication that those who received them would pass them out to other members of the community deemed to embody the lore spirit of those ToCs. As the project developed, the Two expanded their breadth of token delegation to different guilds.

Objectively, by far and large, these ToCs have not found their way to circulation amongst the community. And while it’s true that other manners of obtaining ToCs have been possible, the windows in which they operate (eg., live on spaces by answering riddles or participation in the Festival Tournament) are generally quite limiting, in both quantity and opportunity. While there are ~2.4k WAGDIE holders and 914 members in the Library discord, only 224 hold any kind of token. All this leads to a dearth of unique holders which this proposal seeks to challenge in proposing ToCs be awarded as opposed to WAGDIEs.

IMPLEMENTATION

STEP 1:

• The Two will create a new ToC that reflects their purpose of awarding outstanding work by community members., ex. Conclave Crucible, Candle, Crescent, Crest, Crown, Badge. They will mint, at minimum, 36 of these new ToCs.
• A gnosis safe with multisig access by the six current Conclave Representatives will be created. [conclaverepresentatives.eth].

STEP 2:

• The Two will airdrop a total of 36 ToCs to conclaverepresentatives.eth. The makeup of ToCs is up to their discretion; it may be solely comprised of the new Conclave ToC or mixed with preexisting ones such as Artificial Crystal and Fetid Talon.

STEP 3:

• At any point during their term, each Conclave Representative may highlight the participation, effort, or initiative of a community member they deem has positively impacted the WAGDIE project. They will formally announce this via whatever channel they choose, be it Twitter or Discord, and award them by selecting and transferring one ToC from conclaverepresentatives.eth to that individual’s eth address.

SPECIFICATIONS

• Each Conclave Representative reserves the ability to award one ToC during their 6 week term to another whose:

“participation, activity, or efforts has positively impacted the WAGDIE project.”

This ability is not mandatory to exercise. They may choose to not award any during their term and cannot be forced to do so. No Conclave Representative is allowed to award more than one ToC. Conclave Representatives cannot award themself or another Conclave Representative.

• The interpretation of merit by which each Conclave Representative chooses to award a member, along with the ToC they choose to award, is up to the discretion of that Conclave Representative. Other than verbalizing their rationale when naming that member, no other justification is required.

*Veto Clause: If 4/6 Conclave Representatives formally voice a lack of legitimacy in an announced awarding, no award shall be made. In this situation, that Conclave Representative has forfeited his right to award any further for the remainder of their term.

TIMELINE

Upon passing snapshot vote, STAGE 1 will be executed immediately, with STAGE 2 following immediately. STAGE 3 will occur as stated within the current term cycle.

OVERALL COST

-Creation and minting of new ToCs (at the Two’s expense)
-Creation of mulitsig gnosis (at community’s expense)
-ToC transfer fees (Conclave Treasury funding)

.5 eth (deposited into the conclaverepresentatives.eth)

SUMMARY

The virtues of generosity and gratitude are cornerstones of WAGDIE. In that spirit, individuals who expand the world and experience of WAGDIE need to be celebrated and awarded. Since ToCs are challenging to come by, and the fact that they hold less monetary value than WAGDIE while still being very desirable and thematically linked to ethos and lore, they make wonderful awards.

@josiah.peace @Icculus Instead of the proposed domains(conclaverepresentatives.eth wagdieawards.eth), what do you think of a subdomain? Something like conclave.wagdie.eth

[josiah.peace]

yea do as you please, not too important as long as it clear and gets the job done.

[Dontfeedthewolf]

This proposal is ready to push live with the recommendation The Two create a subdomain

conclave.wagdie.eth and point it at this gnosis safe:

Gnosis Safe

Which already has all 6 reps as signers.

[Dontfeedthewolf]

Proposal is now live on Snapshot for voting: Snapshot

[Dontfeedthewolf]

Proposal passed 93% in favor: Snapshot

Here is our Gnosis Safe: Safe

If the Two can create subdomain Conclave.Wagdie.eth to point to it.

[Icculus]

Art is being worked on for the Concord.

I’ll look into the ens subdomain.
