10 Days to Go... 👀
Get active, convert to a patron or be gone, lamer!
Dear readers, Season 2 is soon coming to an end! 😱
With 10 days to go & Necromancers sharpening their axes - time to get real!
Ways to contribute:
⚔️ Quests & Roles ⚔️
Here’s some of the highly burning quests & sought after roles 👇
🔨 Bring a Builder
MetaGame needs moar builders! Help us find some by reading through the role description. Bonus points if they’re from the old world of Web2, many more bonus points if the end up actually building something in MetaGame 😉.
🤑 Onboard a Patron
MetaGame still hasn’t reached the Patrons cap 😱! Know a bunch of people that might be interested in supporting MetaGame & buying some of our magic internet money? Get them started on the Patron’s Path & report in didathing.
📚 Write a Playbook
Playbooks are short guides on how to get active into the DAO or the wider Ethereum space, written by people of different roles & skill sets.
You can find more info & examples in here
🏠 Build The House of Wellbeing
Houses give the meta view of different areas of interest, you can read more about how to build one here. All of the critical crypto ones are already being written, so now its on someone to write one about wellbeing. How to be well, not get burned out, not fall into nihilism & all of that good stuff. All about taking care of the mind & body.
🎨 Manifest the Manifesto
The MetaManifesto will become a collectible 😱! We need some artists to design MetaManifesto NFTs of different ranks: Common, Rare, Epic & Legendary. They will be displayed at the bottom of the MetaManifesto, allowing people who feel aligned with it to own a piece of history & hold as bragging rights.
🎨 Conceptualize
We need some concept art for MetaGame. So far we mainly got some octo character art but now we’ll need some environment art. In preparation for the long-away raid of building MetaVille, we need some MetaVille architecture concept art to prepare hand off to 3D artists. Read more about MetaGame’ art style here.
📽️ Explainer Video
It’s about time MetaGame has it’s explainer video, no? Interested in helping with it? Ask about it in 📽-video-content 🙃
🛠️ Show me your roles
Well… To allow others to show roles, first we need to add the selection screen to the profile creation flow 🙃. 1/2 final missing pieces allowing us to call finally call MyMeta profiles feature-complete - critically important.
🛠️ Custom background
Here’s a fun thing missing from MyMeta: custom backgrounds. Not mission critical but something to do before we get deep into setting quests & priorities for the rest of the MetaOS. Interested in working on something more important than this fun little feature? Let us know in this MetaOS roadmap WIP issue.
⚠️⚠️⚠️🛠️ Most Builder Quests ⚠️⚠️⚠️
⚠️⚠️⚠️ All Other Quests ⚠️⚠️⚠️
NOTE: Ask anything about any of these quests, raids or roles by commenting directly on their Notion posts, Github issues or in the quest-ask or skill-specific-guild channels.
🤔 Highly Demanded Roles
🛠️ Builder
We got a bunch of new builders but the list of issues is long 🙃. No fancy Solidity developers, we only need some good old web2 developers. Those of ReactJS, TypeScript kind & those familiar with Hasura & Graph.
Check the role description here, get going on the builders path here or ask about it in the #builders-guild.
🤑 Patron
Patrons are the players that are contributing to MetaGame by buying & planting Seeds. You can read more about how it works here.
Looking to join MetaGame? Now is a good time! Already a player, looking to avoid the purge? Get going!
🕵️♂️ Headhunter
Headhunter is a player who knows a lot of people or where to find them. His role is to get the other roles filled. Currently, the highest priority for headhunters are the builders, though finding more innkeepers & patrons definitely won’t hurt 😇
🖋️ Writer
With the Writers Guild under construction, there is a demand coming for writers. There will be help needed in anything from Playbooks & Great Houses, to the Newsletter, The Lore & the Shillers Guild. Interested in writing for or about MetaGame? Report in the #writers-guild
📣 Shiller
Likewise, shillers guild is only about to get going. The next few months will still mostly be focused on building, but the Shillers Guild will slowly start ramping up its membership & efforts to prepare for Summoning The Great Flood.
🧠 Knowledge Worker
One of the last missing Champions for the Champions Ring - The role of a Knowledge Worker in MetaGame is to spend time in the elevate category of discord, holding pulse on channels like the brain-exchange, tutorials & skill-bot; engaging, keeping track of things people are interested in & getting them to write Playbooks or coordinating with the Meetup Master to set up workshops or talks.
😶 Necromancers
With Season2 coming to an end & a bunch of inactive players holding us back from recruiting new players - Necromancers are getting ready for another purge.
To carry out their player revivals, patron conversions & executions as fast as possible, they are looking for more players to join them in cleansing MetaGame.
⚠️⚠️⚠️ All Roles ⚠️⚠️⚠️
MetaGame Meta 👀
Onboaders held another onboarding call & onboarded a bunch more Engaged Octos. They also agreed to start doing the onboarding calls 15 minutes earlier & worked out most of the structure for the cohorting system - more next week.
Bagholder of Shillers Guild brought us some fun guests on Sunday. We jammed on anything from memes to community & value creation. Looks like Shillers Align calls will be happening on Tuesdays & the shilling strategy is starting toget worked out.
Writers Guild aligns again, discusses everything that needs writing & Gnomeski starts with writing the Writing Playbook.
Playbooks raid led by Tommy holds another live session with a bunch of people joining, knocking out some of the playbooks & making progress on the glossary. Looks like the raids will be happening consistently on Thursdays now. Check progress & pick some for yourself in here.
Designers Guild has been a bit quieter, waiting for more builders to tackle things. Dave & Dan13 mostly concluded with the player filtering pair development. Other than that, Dave, an absolute powerhouse, has committed to tackling “new sections”, “role select”, “no-frills profile edit” & “updating MyMeta”.
Builders Guild continues chugging along through the turmoil. Dan13 finishes filters, Luxumbra finishes upgrading the personality colors bar, Michiel finishes the quest text formatting, Vyvy-vi makes the links float up the logo when being embeded elsewhere, Sackofjoy makes good progress on displaying xDAI DAOs on MyMeta, Blake makes progress on the dashboard part of the MetaMenu & Dysbulic continues helping with code review.
Now, after adding all the missing info in descriptions & pinned messages; Metarrhizal Network - the discord reorganization & explanation raid is officially complete! Big props to FearlessThompson, Misanth, Bagholder & a bunch of others.
Durgudas & b0gie both continue holding their workshops. Durgudas on Virtuous Cycles happened last Saturday & b0gie’s Intro to 3D with Blender has been going all throughout the week with a bunch of people leveling up.
Seed minting; can’t say its going smoothly! Looks like most people weren’t in the know about the debt initiatives being added & also took the first calculation much more seriously than before. Its time to change the minting process both in terms of regular cycles & additional discussions around missing initiatives. As voted after much discussion, minting will now proceed. There is this huge thread going through the initiatives added & their whys if you want to catch up with that.
Onwards! 🐙
