* File Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zFSOgM-xy3H2jswE2u-Bgcj7pEizWXqo/view?usp=sharing ----------------------------------- #### SPS Proposals: * Goal with SPS Governance is to allow for anything to be proposed * In the future, players will be able to create proposals for a fee * It is up to the community to decide what they think should be implemented or not * Team goal is to take any ideals/feedback from the community and put them out * Team doesn't want to play gatekeeper and limit the ideals/feedback items that get proposed * Team is trying to create an open space that is completely decentralized * This means that anything can be changed as long as the community passes it through * There is a separation between Splinterlands company/game product and the DAO (SPS, Vouchers, Licenses) * Anything that the DAO proposes and approves that is under control by the DAO will be implemented * Non-DAO items are ultimately up to the Splinterlands company to decide if it gets implemented or not * CL Pack burn is an example of a non-DAO proposal * Team proposed this just because they wanted community feedback on the subject rather than making the decision themselves * Team plans on updating the SPS Proposal UI to differentiate between DAO and non-DAO proposals * Everything that is put up as a proposal by the team is not expected to be passed * There are some controversial proposals like making RiftWatchers & Licenses purchasable in DEC * These two ideals were proposed by the team as they ultimately think that making all products priced in DEC will help push DEC price back to its soft-peg price * Goal of the ecosystem is to back every product by DEC in order to stabilize it as best as possible * If DEC is closer to peg, then it would create a higher demand for burning SPS for DEC ----------------------------------- #### Lux Vega: * Team plans on releasing the Lux Vega sale next week (still TBD) * Lux Vega will be purchasable with DEC only * VOUCHERs may be accepted for an additional discount * VOUCHERs will potentially be accepted at $1 per VOUCHER * Promo codes can be used on top of the VOUCHER discount * Splinterfest attendees will receive a Promo Code pertaining to the ticket they purchased * Once the Promo Code is used once, it can't be undone or reused * Be careful when doing deals with the Promo Code! * All information regarding Lux Vega will be announced as soon as it is ready ----------------------------------- #### Marketing: * New potential partnership announcement pending for December * Marketing team wants to look into new player onboarding experience and how it can be revamped and more user-friendly ----------------------------------- #### Creative: * Team has completed all the Lux Vega creative assets and pushed them to the development team * Team created a new Death character to replace Usut for the first RiftWatcher Legendary airdrop (**see Eye Candy!**) * Team didn't think Usut accurately fit the stats given so they created Kain Hace to replace him * Usut was moved to the backlog for a later potential release * Team has continued producing Land assets every week * Will look to release some of these assets in the upcoming Townhalls! * HyperX Arena finally sent all the film from Splinterfest * Creative team will be creating a virtual experience with the film for those who didn't attend to be able to watch and experience the event ----------------------------------- #### Brawls/Tournaments: * First Splinterlands Open tournament started this past Friday and concluded over the weekend * 337 total participants * Congrats to the top five winners!

** </center> * Tech Modernization: * Reworking the technology framework to make the system more scalable and mobile-friendly * Changes being applied mainly affect the following pages * Registration Page * Affiliate Program Page * Login Page * Settings Page * Profile Page * Request Keys Page * Currency Activity Page * Bug Fixes: * Fixed a bug that inaccurately capped the level of Gladiators at certain leagues * Battle system will use the same card for every battle, even if you own multiple copies of the same card * This prevents a cooldown being applied to multiple copies of the same card * New Features & Enhancements: * New icon being added for Splinterlands Open tournaments * Adding Splex.gg bannet to the Market page (joining PeakMonsters, MonsterMarket & CardAuctionz) * Three new rulesets being introduced: * Thorns * Magic Reflect * Return Fire * Summoners can now be swapped during the battle lineup creation * System won't automatically make you restart your lineup if you choose a new summoner that allows you to use same cards from previous lineup * Example: Neutral cards will remain in lineup when swapping your summoner ![SPL_Divider.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/brybro27/23tGyZ5NPR2aiYdMurHVxWRHMTzYGnXpJng6ujfWm5ZiQjjzivFiJD8SDHYmGgHtyVh2X.png) ## <center> ⚡️ Q&A Summary ⚡️ </center> #### SPS Proposals: * Anything that is deemed of potential value for the community will be proposed by the team * Adjusting Rewards By Card Level Proposal: * This new system was proposed to better handle what Collection Power was introduced for * Collection Power requirements may be removed entirely in the future as the system will be rewarding those who earn more cards at higher levels * CP can be exploited currently as well as you can rent/delegate Level 1 cards to surpass the CP requirements * CP doesn't ultimately incentivize leveling up of cards which is what the new system is pushing towards * Chaos Legion Pack Burn Proposal: * With Land gameplay and Tower Defense gameplay around the corner, card scarcity could be a factor when considering whether to vote for the CL pack burn or not * Future card sets may have be released with a burn mechanism that will activate if the set doesn't sellout by a certain time period * The fee for creating SPS Proposals is still being determined * SPS Validator nodes will initially only support SPS, VOUCHERs, and Licenses * So only SPS and/or VOUCHERs will most likely be accepted to pay the fee for a SPS Proposal ----------------------------------- #### Rebellion: * Rebellion set won't be released until at least 3 months after Chaos Legion sells out * There is no fixed date on this set release and there won't be one until CL is completely sold out first ----------------------------------- #### RUNI: * Team is in the early brainstorming phase for what special things could be introduced for RUNI owners * Players could potentially see Land utility introduced, among other utility * Once your RUNI is staked in the game, you will get the benefits for all the other things released along with being able to play it in-game ----------------------------------- #### Transak Issues: * Transak goes through HIVE and appears to have been down since the two HIVE hardforks * This is a big business item that the team wants to address in the near future as they believe anyone should be able to easily buy any supported token (SPS, DEC, etc...) * Team is aware of the issue and will provide more details when the system is live again ----------------------------------- #### DEC: * The plan is to pair every Splinterlands asset with DEC * This includes Land Liquidity Pools for Resources when Land gameplay is released * All that value that is going into the DEC ecoystem will go directly to SPS ![SPL_Divider.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/brybro27/23tGyZ5NPR2aiYdMurHVxWRHMTzYGnXpJng6ujfWm5ZiQjjzivFiJD8SDHYmGgHtyVh2X.png) ## <center> 👀 Eye Candy 👀 </center> ![](https://i.imgur.com/va83gU7.png) ![SPL_Divider.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/brybro27/23tGyZ5NPR2aiYdMurHVxWRHMTzYGnXpJng6ujfWm5ZiQjjzivFiJD8SDHYmGgHtyVh2X.png) ## <center> 🔥 Support Tutorial 🔥 </center> #### [Abilities & Status Effects](https://support.splinterlands.com/hc/en-us/articles/4414966685332-Abilities-Status-Effects) * Read the guide above to learn more about abilities and how they interact with other abilities!
