### ⌐◨-◨ 2 month sponsorship of GM Farcaster highlighting Lil Nouns on our 3x/week show. 2 eth/month (4 eth total)
GM Farcaster is the premier Farcaster news show with 208 episodes onchain and online plus multiple bonus episodes and includes interviews with Farcaster and crypto builders. We currently stream live three times a week with some episodes strictly Farcaster news and others including interviews. We currently stream live on [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/@GMFarcaster) and [Twitter](https://x.com/ProfWerder) with recording dropped on Spotify, Apple and wherever you get your podcasts, plus on [pods.media](https://pods.media/gm-farcaster) as a collectible nft with a v2 frame that allows for watching/listening right on Warpcast.
Coming up next week we'll have interviews with Luca Netz of Pudgy Penguins and Dan Romero, Farcaster co-founder, in his 5th appearance (he will be appearing monthly moving forward).
For this sponsorship, Lil Nouns will be credited on all episodes with at least one episode each week highlighting a cast involving Lil Nouns or Lil Nouns builders and/or showcasing the Lil Nouns auction live onair. At least twice a month, we'll purchase a Lil Noun live for giveaway (see below). Lil Nouns will be shouted out on Warpcast for sponsored episodes and in all show notes.
In addition, Lil Nouners will have an opportunity for a free 2 month [GM Farcaster Hypersub](https://hypersub.xyz/s/gm-farcaster-cup-o-wowow-o7e04az2169s/2) subscription during this sponsorship (mole tier) which will provide additional benefits such as airdrops of special episodes, event access and merch shop discounts (coming soon).
NOTE: every episode of GM Farcaster has included Lil Nouns noggles on my ears for every show plus ⌐◨-◨ on screen next to my name. We'll add some Lil Nouns branding to our background/overlays.

### ⌐◨-◨ Sponsorship of the GM Farcaster Brunch at Eth Denver (1 Eth)
Last year, GM Farcaster sponsored a meetup for our Hypersub suscribers at Eth Denver and this year we are expanding it. On Saturday March 1 we're hosting a meetup at Punchbowl Social in Denver. As part of this proposal, Lil Nouns will be one of the title sponsors and featured on all RSVP frames and promotion as well as at the event itself.
This event is a karaoke/arcade brunch in the mezzanine of Punchbowl Social with 2 private karaoke rooms, pool table, arcarde games etc. This will be a cozy morning meetup. Lil Nouners who will be in town for Eth Denver will be invited to attend with 10 tickets set aside exclusively for Lil Nouners.
In addition, we'll re-dress our Lil Pudgy mascot from last year with Lil Nouns noggles for all of our merch and branding.

### ⌐◨-◨ Prize pool sponsor for the next season of CastOut (1 Eth)
CastOut is a survivor inspired game where all the challenges occur on Farcaster. (see [/castout on Warpcast](https://warpcast.com/~/channel/castout) to learn more) We've done 2 seasons thus far and are planning the next one for the end of March/early April. This has proved to be a fun way to showcase projects and builders in the Farcaster ecosystem and provide an interesting game for the community. The 1 Eth from this sponsorship will go directly to the prize pool for the winners of CastOut.
Lil Nouns will be featured on all episodes of GM Farcaster CastOut edition and will be on the [/castout](https://warpcast.com/~/channel/castout) channel banner and all marketing. In addition, a tribe will be reserved exclusively for Lil Nouners. (5 players per tribe)

### ⌐◨-◨ Launch of Lil Poker, a GMFC new stream (1 ETH)
Yes, I'm bringing back the Lil Poker idea! This will be a 7 week trial run of a poker game stream where the players are on video/audio chat while playing. It will serve as an opportunity to chat about what's happening in the Farcaster ecosystem and showcase builders from FC and Lil Nouns. Funds from this part of the sponsorship will provide for the prize pool and for the sponsorship for this stream.
Ideally, we want to stream this on Abstract with recordings on our usual channels. We are awaiting for Abstract streaming access. If we are unable to get access to stream on Abstract, we'll use our usual GMFC streaming platforms. This will start on Friday February 7 each Friday in February and March, except for February 28 due to Eth Denver.
Lil Nouns branding will be featured on the poker table and in the credits. Two seats for each game will be reserved for Lil Nouners to play each week. In addition, a Lil Noun will be purchased on auction as a prize for the grand champion of this mini tournament.

### ⌐◨-◨ Budget for Lil Nouns purchase on auction for giveaways (.5 Eth)
Lastly, we're requesting a budget to purchase Lil Nouns live on air for use as prizes for CastOut (1) and Lil Poker (1), as well as giveaways for the Eth Denver Brunch (3) and for promotion of our collab. (5)
In addition, I'll be offering a degen tip to anyone who purchases a Lil Noun on auction during the two month sponsorship. (will need to cast, tag me, and I'll confirm - tip amount will correspond with token id). This is dependent on Degen tip availability but I do not anticipate any issues.

My goal with this prop is to see if we can drive new traffic to the Lil Nouns auction via the different activations noted above, as well as providing new benefits to Lil Nouners. This also will drive more general awareness of Lil Nouns on Warpcast but ideally I'd like to see some direct results from this effort and will be tracking it.
For those unfamiliar with GM Farcaster, I encourage you to visit our [/gmfarcaster](https://warpcast.com/~/channel/gmfarcaster) channel (14k followers) on Warpcast and [NounishProf's](https://warpcast.com/nounishprof) (74k followers) and [Adrienne's](https://warpcast.com/adrienne) (128k followers) profiles to get a feel for our show and influence on Farcaster.
