Hi all. This is my first post here, please don’t throw tomatoes too much
Get to the point.
I would like to suggest adding various games and quizzes for the community for small rewards.
For example, online poker, other online games such as shooters (if we have a lot of gamers), quizzes on knowledge of the Jupiter ecosystem, various quick quizzes, riddles.
It is enough to organize this kind of event once a week and the community will be more united and add variety to dull everyday life.
You can also organize competitions between other communities to attract and exchange new users.
Funds can be taken from unclaimed ASR balances.
I also wanted to suggest creating a thread in discord with creativity.
These can be pictures, memes, songs, jokes, poems related to Jupiter.
The best works could be used in Twitter(X) posts, in discord announcements, maybe even on the website.
I noticed that there was a similar thread, but why was it closed?
For example, my new poem
On Jupiter’s surface, where storms rage wild,
The cat explores, with curiosity undefiled.
In a spacesuit of silver, it leaps and bounds,
Exploring craters and alien grounds.
I would like too, understand why channel (Discord) is closed.
I don’t think paying for games is a good idea. You’ll have a whole bunch of people coming in just for that, I’ve had the opportunity to see how it goes elsewhere. I don’t want this kind of behavior to be encouraged so as a result, I don’t think any incentives of this nature should be considered.
Thank you for your poem, I have a French language culture, but I was able to appreciate the translation as well as your rhymes
I once randomly saw on Jupiter Discord a few guys playing chess rounds there in a live chat, like all were in by audio but the screen was the chess game.
I mean I get it that users would really love things with real tokens and all, but honestly I rather have no pressure and would just play for some random “jelly beans” meaningless in game or “in Discord” currency, or reputation points or something.
Bottomline, Poker for example, with the right people does not only make for a game with more players, but also is much more entertaining for an audience but also for players that do banter and do not play it at max seriousness and savageness.
I would love to have that situation once where I just play a round or two and then some challenger enters on next round like you that I know.
I think especially for people that come across each other on Discord or the forums here, having games would really elevate the fun and knowing each other.
It’s always like this in the market, a lot of people come, some leave, and some stay with the project. This is why such competitions are held. It’s like advertising conversion. Thanks for rating the poem
I do not think it makes sense to do it officially from the JUP project, because usually such events are conducting new projects to recruit an audience, give a hype, etc. and Jup is not need this now.
It would be a better idea to make the opportunity to make the events from community members, moderators and make for this a platform or restore the Discord
And about Discord i agree, it is a nice tool for receiving news and supporting audience.
Wouldn’t it be a good idea for those engaging in this game to agree a way to put some tips together and have fun instead of securing funding or grants for it?
In the bigger picture using funds or grants for games is a bit overreaching, I mean we are not an esports league here. My issue with putting tips together, while it is charming it can cross a thin line to actual casino stuff. I mean if randoms put tips for a price in some chess tournament, it is super fine. But if you have 5 people agreeing on mutual tips on a poker game for those said 5 people it becomes an actual buy in.
I made an extreme example, but as users sometimes get crazy that is how I argue on my Discords to prevent such things.
I run 3 different sytems on my Discords for any games, tournaments or prices.
1- Honor based. Yea it is 2000 all over again like in the xBox 360 lobies, all you get is banter, edging and the pride of having beat the opponent.
2- Call to pride based. In two servers if someone wins the looser has to call him Shifu, Master, Sensei, Lord or something similar for a month. Only works and makes sense in rather small communities that are elite.
3- Tiered addon based. Mostly I use the currency Mee6 Bot gives in premium, the game mechanics there and whatnot and let people transfer that. Mee6 currency on Discord you can name it whatever, Hamsters if you prefer and they have absolute zero value and can not be attributed with value. They can earn it, they can gamble with it and even stake it, they are just jellybeans, only thing they can trade it in to is some server titles or emojis, works actually the best. Some simply wanna show of their jellybean wealth and it gets quite comical.
100% agree with the point you make especially the risk of this crossing to some casino-like stuff. I was largely thinking of this along the lines of communal fun for people with similar interest with whatever guidelines they agree to safeguard it spiralling out of control to bad habits.
What i practically always circle back since joining JUP is barriers of entry & ease of use. A part from this scope of which i was thinking is what could eventually bring in more normies or crypto folks from same or different chain is giveaways or games (could be as well a puzzle thing):
Those could initially be done via the following routes:
jup_dao x site giveaway.
JUP & JUICE podcast giveaway. A positive side effect here would be as well that it would drive up more audience → more audience is better YT ranking and as well more $ on views. You get the point where this leads.
Off-course how winners would be picked still needs be designed while the prizes could be JUP from unclaimed ASR, or some other.
“Newbies” that would get the prize should as well get the welcome pack with it. Welcome pack? Kind of a guide how to navigate (walk-through) via the JUP ecosystem. Lets onboard everyone!
This is a great idea! id be all for it. You win a giveaway = you win joining the community. i.e. the reward is 100 staked jup. at worst, they are a member of jup for 30 days!
This might be silly but works: Like playing “sink the ships” Have a map of fields between A-Z and 1-99. Let them all reply in the x post with their answer including some tags: example: A25 #J4J#PPP#JUP
(they can as well add other stuff if they want)
You can as well have a giveaway on site - for example you share a link on the podcast so they can enter the giveaway site and choose their pick (adding their email to their claim = could be used for marketing purpose in the future).
When randomly drawing winners grant 10 JUP to 1-10 participants (that were as well previously checked for sibyl activity = so they don’t come from existing users. i know the crooks will always find a way to game the system but you need to have counter measures in place).
So everyone is to receive like 10 JUP (or more if you decide) and maybe some other welcome pack (which could include be a pdf walk-through about how to get onboarded: from downloading the app, buying your first coin etc…)
I’m all for it, poker tournaments, random games, etc… But I don’t see the point in taking larger amounts of tokens, rewards could be like hoodies, something similar to a working group bounty program…
It is perfect thing for starting small, In the end it’s all about bringing the community a bit together
