## Event Cards
Event cards determine available resources and may trigger special events:
1. Standard Resource Distribution: Sets the available resources for the round.
2. Hiring Opportunity: Allows one player to add a new role to their team at level 0.
3. Downsizing: Requires each player to remove one role from their team (Discovery Driver cannot be removed).

### Examples of event cards

Event cards affect the amount of resources available eaach round. We have 4 categories of resources (the 4 pillars of Open Science):
- FAIR Data
- Open Research Software
- Open Access
- Citizen Science

Additionally, cards can have influence on specific roles (for example hire a data steward for free) or can have other effects (e.g. you have to fire one team member due to unexected budget cuts).


<!-- #### Example

Taylor Swift tweets about Open Science.

max - max - max - max

You have one additional action this turn. -->

### Proposed cards

For resources, make the amount available relative to the baseline (i.e., +- a value).

#### Metamorphic agreement

The university spends an obsene amount of money on an Open Access deal with
a major scientific publisher.

**resource distribution:** (-4) - (-4) - max - (-4)

#### FAIR data funding

A pot of money is made available to researchers to fund efforts in making
their data more FAIR.

**resource distribution:** +2 - baseline - baseline - baseline

#### Conference on Open Publishing

A conference is organised to increase the awareness of Open Access models, especially
Diamond Open Access.

**resource distribution:** baseline - baseline - +2 - baseline

**extra effects:** Knowledge liberator is unavailable for the first round.

#### Open Science Infrastructure funding

Funding is made available to projects related to improving the infrastructure of Open Science.

**resource distribution:** +2 - +2 - +2 - +2

#### Rewards and Recognition

A push to promote different types of research outputs.

**resource distribution:** +1 - +1 - baseline - +1

#### National Day for Research Software

An event on the importance of good, open research software.

**resource distribution:** baseline - +2 - baseline - baseline

**extra effects:** Code conjuror is unavailable in the first round.

#### Balanced Resources

#### FAIR Data Boost

#### Open Software Boost

#### Open Access Boost

#### Citizen Science Boost

**resource distribution:** baseline - baseline - baseline - +2

#### Minor Squeeze

#### Major Squeeze

**resource distribution:** (-4) - (-4) - (-4) - (-4)

**extra effects:** Lose one role card.

#### Hiring Opportunity

#### Downsizing

####  We’ve got data at home

Science stimulates the reuse of FAIR data
11 – 7 – 7 – 7

####  Breaking Bad

Citizen Science becomes the hot new thing 7 – 7 – 7 – 11

#### Computer says yes

Science sends a rocket to the moon with open software 7 – 7 – 11 -7

#### To see the contents of this card…

Science hits upon a paywall one too many times 7 – 11 – 7 – 7

#### Taylor Swift endorses open science on X

Finally the recognition we deserve 12 – 12 – 12 – 12

#### Out of Office: Congress

You can’t use your Discovery Driver this round. Level up your Discovery Driver at the beginning of next round. 8 – 8 – 8 - 8

#### Out of Office: Open Science Festival

You can’t use two of your specialist this round. Level up these two specialist at the beginning of next round. 8 – 8 – 8 - 8

#### Out of Office: Boot camp

You can’t use two of your generalists this round. Level up these two generalists at the beginning of next round. 8 – 8 – 8 - 8

#### We’re going to need a bigger boat

The publishers jacked their prices to buy yachts 8 – 3 - 8 – 8

#### We found some spare FTE!

Draw a team member at the beginning of your turn Start your turn as normal 8 – 8 – 8 - 8
