Merry Christmas to you as well! I can't say that I'm not excited to get out of 2020 and hoping for a positive year for everyone next year.
I completely agree on variety bringing in more people. Being a home to a wide range of sports and eventually teams within these smaller leagues or hopefully even larger ones will be a way to grow interest for everyone in the community. We all enjoy multiple sports after all.
Right now the way the Daily SPORTS Curation Report runs is by checking for 10 different sports and then upvoting the top 5 posts under that sport. It then catalogs those posts it found on the report it publishes from @sportstalksocial. It checks each day for #football, #americanfootball, #baseball, #basketball, #golf, #tennis, #hockey, #cricket, #mma and #boxing. I'm interested if anyone has any ideas for replacing any of these tags for something like #handball or if there would be interest in expanding the list to something like 20 sports and just add in 10 new ones. I like the idea of 10 though mainly to keep a clean list on the homepage for sports and their league pages.
As for development I'm really excited to seeing @cryptosimplify be a part of the team. I think front end changes will be important as well as developments on the backend like what LEO is going after with their Lightning DB. Personally I think once we have the DAO infrastructure ready from ARCHON we'll have a much better ability to move forward on projects like that. I'm sure if we posted a petition seeking a feature and there was wide approval that showed it would be developed there are developers even beyond what's in our community already who would step up to help out. I think that ability to signal needs will be game changing for us.
Once we have the DAO we'll essentially already have the ability for a "slush fund" account that would be managed by all stakeholders. That will go for both Hive assets held in managed accounts but also tokens like SPORTS or other tribe tokens. Each comment on a governance bot will essentially be building the value held in those governance accounts. I'd be open to proposing a regular daily post from that account similar to what ARCHON does with their daily mining reports. That would also allow us a wider net than just the curation reports from @sportstalksocial account for daily upvotes on tribe maintenance.
This sounds exactly what we need and something we can all get behind. I have had concerns over how we are going to move forward and this is much clearer and has put me at ease. We have loads to do and can't wait.
