Create Proposal for Cagendas on Snapshot

Should we implement Cagendas to organize discussion time in weekly events after playing the Respect Game?

Cagendas is a social coordination game for collaborative agenda setting that empowers community members to propose, discuss, and vote on topics with Optimism Fractal Respect. There are simple rules to play Cagendas and an introduction to a new event below. Vote YES on this proposal if you agree to implement the following:

1. Anyone who has earned Respect at Optimism Fractal can propose a topic by creating a poll in the Optimism Town Hall snapshot space.
2. Anyone who has earned Respect at Optimism Fractal can vote on polls with their Respect to help determine the discussion topic for each weekly event.
3. Whichever poll has received the most votes in the Topic Poll by Monday at 17 UTC will be the topic discussed during the week’s event after the Respect Game.
1. The poll for the topic proposal must end on Monday at 17 UTC (or earlier) to be eligible as a formal topic proposal for the week’s event.

The Optimism Town Hall is envisioned as a collaborative forum and weekly event for structured discussions about Optimism. It is intended to replace our planning sessions with a more organized format and a greater focus on facilitating conversations that provide a positive impact for Optimism Collective governance. You can find more details about Cagendas, Optimism Town Hall, and rationale for this proposal on this page.

Post Proposal and Details on Discord

Hey all,

I’m thrilled to introduce a proposal to start playing Cagendas after each Optimism Fractal event at a new community forum called Optimism Town Hall. I’d like to present this proposal at today’s event to kick off a fantastic third season and am curious to hear your thoughts about it. You can vote on the proposal here and see details below:

Introducing Cagendas

Cagendas is a social coordination game for collaborative agenda setting that empowers Optimism Fractal community members to propose, discuss, and vote on topics with Respect. This community agenda game provides a simple, structured, and scalable way for everyone who has earned Respect at Optimism Fractal to propose topics or vote on topics they want to discuss at weekly events after the Respect Game. Cagendas can create profound benefits by helping us prioritize discussions and ensuring that the topics that matter most get the attention they deserve. We’ve been developing Cagendas for over a year at Eden Fractal and I’m stoked to share it with everyone at Optimism Fractal and the Optimism Collective. You can explore more details and contribute to the development of Cagendas in this project.

Introducing Optimism Town Hall

The Optimism Town Hall is envisioned as a new collaborative space for structured discussions about the Optimism Collective, powered by Optimism Fractal Respect. The Town Hall is intended to be a weekly event that replaces the Optimism Fractal planning sessions with a more organized approach to selecting discussion topics by voting with Respect and a greater focus on facilitating conversations that provide a positive impact for Optimism Collective governance. The Optimism Town Hall can provide you with a platform to help lead the Optimism Collective and create a better world for everyone. We have very exciting plans for the Optimism Town Hall and I look forward to collaborating with everyone there to actualize the Optimistic Vision. You can explore more details and contribute to the development of Optimism Town Hall in this project.

Implementation Proposal

The rules of Cagendas are explained below. Please vote yes on this proposal if you agree to implement the following:

1. Anyone who has earned Respect at Optimism Fractal can propose a topic by creating a poll in the Optimism Town Hall snapshot space.
2. Anyone who has earned Respect at Optimism Fractal can vote on polls with their Respect to help determine the discussion topic for each weekly event.
3. Whichever poll has received the most votes in the Topic Poll by Monday at 17 UTC will be the topic discussed during the week’s event after the Respect Game.
1. The poll for the topic proposal must end on Monday at 17 UTC (or earlier) to be eligible as a formal topic proposal for the week’s event.

I believe that this proposal will position us well in our third season to provide the greatest impact for the Optimism Collective, help Optimism Fractal community members earn Retro Funding in Round 6, and catalyze exponential fractal growth to create profound benefits for all. You can see the proposal and Vote with Respect here. You can see more rationale about this proposal in this introductory post. Councilors, please review the proposal and let me know if you have any questions. I’m looking forward to hear everyone’s thoughts and would appreciate feedback!

Announce starting promptly at 17 utc and opening the room 5-10 minutes early for anyone who would like to talk before the recording and opening presentation

In this season I plan to start recording the video and sharing an introductory presentation promptly at 17 UTC. This will provide us with more time to finish playing the Respect Game then discuss topics afterwards and help make the most of everyone’s time. I’ll also aim to open the zoom room 5-10 minutes early for each event to provide an open space for anyone who’d like to talk for a bit before the event begins.

Reminder

As a reminder, there are currently about x hours left to register for next week’s council. If you’d like to participate in the next week’s council, please register here before the upcoming event at 17 UTC. Looking forward to seeing you soon!
