RESUBMISSION: A Multi-Platform Entertainment Series to Boost DCL Brand Awareness This proposal is now in status: REJECTED. Voting Results: * Yes 4% 902,003 VP (78 votes) * No 95% 18,840,411 VP (52 votes) * Abstain 1% 1,200 VP (1 votes)

So you don't care about who is running it, their background, the flopped NFT project that they launched and put on the back burner. They are offering recreational events, so give them what they want?? Do you know what it means, in the web3 space, to launch an NFT project and then abandon it? Oh yeah, that's right. It's called a rugpull. So if rugpulls come to decentraland to offer recreational events you think that brings value? Or maybe doing some research before blindly voting yes because "recreational events" was mentioned might be a good idea???

Recreational events are fine if they are reasonable.

As you know, I have been among you for a year, and participating in the DAO for 6 months, I do not know all the details that surround the history of each of you, but my professional experience allows me to understand that if Decentraland users are decreasing it could be a consequence of not having a platform attractive enough for them. Not only have I voted "yes" on this proposal, but I have voted "yes" on all the proposals that offered recreational events. I think some user (I'm not referring to you) has made hasty deductions from my vote.

Not worth coming out when the proposal is sure to be rejected.

@maryana I am surprised that the Strategic Unit still voted yes.

SMH. Unbelievable. No they do not support or connect other community members. I hate saying this crap since I will acknowledge I got my start because of them. As things progressed i could see how they truly work. It's a great disappointment to me and hurts everytime it comes up again. I cannot in good concious vote in favor of this knowing it brings near zero new people. The DJs never bring there fan base which you would think they would to vote for them. Even those that do come in, don't stay or come back. Ask for enough to pay for the winners and run an event like everyone else on their dime. I would probably vote for that. But not for twitter spaces no one attends or wearables no one will want. Raise money from the Metatrekkers NFT collection and make that solid again first. Sheesh.

Many of the events are done for free, why should this one be any different. Events are happening all the time. This brings no benefit to DCL and they don't care about DCL. Ask them, where do they go when Beattrekkers isnt running. Ask them, what happened to the Metatrekkers NFT project that goes on the back burner when Beattrekkers is running. Ask them what happened to the Metatrekkers DAO being formed that all the meetings held were basically to allow them to show a possible investor what was supposed to be happenening but then died. You are certainly free to vote as you will but I recommend you look further into what is going on.

It has helped minimal DJs and Land Owners. If it does not pertain to them they do not care to engage. They do not support other events and projects in DCL. I was behind them for over a year. I have realized they are not all they seem. Not to mention, none of the DJs stick around and they don't bring in new users. Ever. 2 seasons I have witnessed this. I have nothing to gain or lose by stating these facts.

Ngl I was expecting more yes supporters to come out


I have and may consult the team independently

[quote="MelzBuenaVibes, post:15, topic:21759"] One of the things I like about this team is how they try to unite people and teams across the platform. I appreciate that energy greatly. [/quote] Aren't you on this team?

Looking forward to these events coming back! Glad to see the MT team’s grit and tenacity to bring back BestTrekkers. One of the things I like about this team is how they try to unite people and teams across the platform. I appreciate that energy greatly. I am cheering for this team and supporting wholeheartedly. Thank you for all you’ve done for DCL and all the work you continue to do behind the scenes. Best of luck!!

According to the idea that this is not a resubmission but a continuance from the revoked grants which total $306,500 why isn't this explained in the proposal itself as opposed to a comment on the proposal? Does that mean that out of the $306,500 requested to run these events (per the first 2 revoked grants) minus what was already paid/spent = $150,000? 156,000 out of the grant has already been paid out and/or spent? I know my questions won't get answered because according to some folks on the MT team I am = to a four year old watching baby shark videos and thus irrelevant and/or there is some assumption that "I know something" so it is better to stay quiet than to answer my questions because it will open a can that someone doesn't want to open.... Pure speculation for the most part since I seem to be mostly ignored, hence my reluctance to participate in these things. So if someone else thinks my questions are important, ask them. Cause they won't get answered if I ask. Someone more important and relevant than myself needs to ask the questions. At the end of the day, my voting power is pointless. It's just Whales Vs. Whales here so don't mind me. I probably won't check back on this thread.... Good luck with your grant!

If i remember correctly, awhile back there were promises of beattrekkers being a one time grant and then using those funds to move toward self sustainability? Were those goals abandoned?

Is it possible to see all of Artist X's followers, and can they all comment here?

I loved the beatrekkers project I got so much fun and wearables hope this can continue again :pray:t2: :pray:t2:

How does this solo Beattrekkers event cost $150k, but the last grant it was $93,250? Is there inflation on DJ battles I don't know about? To help you out, you should consider reducing the # of pre-shows, after shows, and the # of venues. As the metrics show, the numbers are low for these "fluff" events. Focus on the main show events. Eliminate half the venues. Also, both the BT/MT twitter accounts have been radio silent since the last battle. You could of at least made recap videos/engaging content about your last two events, or find a way to stay engaged with the platform (DAO politicking and voting incompetently doesn't count). It leaves me a big distaste when people like your team only post when funding is available. The overall amount is overpriced for ONLY 4 months of events. I can think of a handful of DCL users who can take $30k and stretch those funds for 1 year of DJ battles, and do it more efficiently. Other budget concerns: **Executive Team -** How can we know if the compensation is NOT double counted? For example, is an executive team being a Community Manager AND receiving the "Executive Team" pay? **Marketing Ads** - Overall your current marketing engagement is super low on all social media platforms, not sure where the hype will come all of the sudden if you stopped engaging with your "main" followers 2 months ago. **Graphic Designer** - 22k for 4 months - How expensive is each image? **SDK Development** - How much more does the MT Clubhouse need SDK for? At this point you should have received enough funds. **Publication** - Is a $2000 Yahoo article worth it? How come I've never seen MT on NFTplazas, NFT Now, Blockster, Medium, Lenster before? Point is, it shouldn't cost this much for just a solo article. But not to my surprise, your DAO supporters/friends don't think through these points financially & are only voting yes to not become an enemy of you for your "DAO politics connections". I will question any YES voter's ability to vote competently.

Finally, your engaging party events are returning :man_dancing:. Let's bring the noise back here. Good luck!

As I have said on multiple occasions, it is necessary for Decentraland to have activities and events. When I arrived a little over a year ago I felt attracted because every day there was a party or something to do and I saw a lot of potential in the platform. If we stop investing in these events (not just Beattrekkers, I mean all of them) the platform will seem decadent and lacking in activity and in this situation it will be impossible to attract new users.

I dont believe there is 1 human being alive thah is as supportive as chris, Hes a good friend when things get really thight! I’m glad he is trying to pick up his project again and will vote yes!

here we go again.. $150k & 2 grants revoked later :yawning_face: you did not create a renaissance, you created a war :clinking_glasses:

I really believe in this proposal. I witnessed how BeatTrekkers helped and encouraged different DJs around the world to participate, engage and connect in the Metaverse.

NO, that is my vote.
