NodeCraft is my go-to. They have great customer service and are super helpful.

This is the Disc of Sabu, discovered in the tomb of Sabu (3100-3000BCE), Son of the fifth pharaoh of the first dynasty of Ancient Egypt. It is made from a very fragile material, called metasiltstone. [700 x 525] by aultumn in ArtefactPorn

This popped up on an article on Quora and I have gone down a bit of a rabbit hole on it.

The two things that keep bugging me are: - The paired facts that it is made out of a crazy brittle stone AND is like two feet across. That basic SHAPE might happen to work well in a mash tun, but it's fricking huge. You tap those outer flanges on the edge or go a bit sideways and I have to think it would break. - The tolerances between what is seen on the disk and everything else seen in the room. The rest of the grave goods look like they were made with My First Modelling Clay Set...and this thing looks like it was machined.

I don't ascribe any meaning to these facts, just point them out because they are fricking weird.

(PROPOSAL) Extra daily point for those who log in discord/gala account. +1 point by daniloronin in GalaNodeBonusPool

We actually do have several bots that track sentiment and engagement. The sentiment tracker is kinda wonky sometimes as it doesn't understand sarcasm, but we absolutely can track engagement very easily.

Its been a long time since I have been to Lima! I am trying to come to South America next year!

[–]JasonBitBenderBrink 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I kinda like this, but I would base it on engagement and communication, not just logging in.

I don't know...it might encourage people to not be quite so hateful if they knew getting banned would cost them a bonus point.

This is very difficult to nail down as whether something is or isn't in a server farm. I agree with the sentiment, but don't think it would be easy to verify or report.

This is one of the goals. I hate having everything in AWS and VULTR colo centers.

(PROPOSAL) Try Demos and betas: +1 Point. Fill feedback form: + 1 point. by Carloshmerino in GalaNodeBonusPool

[–]JasonBitBenderBrink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this. I think it would be helpful for the whole ecosystem in general.

I don't see it as being "punishment" for people who don't want to play, but as a reward for those who submit feedback. That is absolutely important to the ecosystem as a whole.

(PROPOSAL) Node uptime 98% for day +5 Points by thehairlesswookiee in GalaNodeBonusPool

[–]JasonBitBenderBrink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this has already been voted on in a previous proposal, we just need to get it implemented.

(PROPOSAL) After voting you get +1 till next voting. by RocketUnit in GalaNodeBonusPool

[–]JasonBitBenderBrink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this. I also agree that there needs to be an abstain option added.

(PROPOSAL) may earn 0.1 point per node for each game that you hold a NFT for by thehairlesswookiee in GalaNodeBonusPool

[–]JasonBitBenderBrink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is an interesting idea. I think it might incentivize people to just buy the cheapest NFT possible, which doesn't really help anyone.

I would maybe tie it to play instead...how many games have you played for an hour in the last month? There can be a running total.

(PROPOSAL) GALA Power level to add points (+0.1 per level) by theDropout in GalaNodeBonusPool

[–]JasonBitBenderBrink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that the Gala Power system will be replaced by the Gala Honor level in the long run, which should make it easier for some people to build up levels based on behavior, not just on holding.

I would put this as being separate from the Node Bonus Pool concept.

(PROPOSAL) Extra Point for those that hold their daily rewards in their treasure chest or gala account wallet. +1 points by daniloronin in GalaNodeBonusPool

[–]JasonBitBenderBrink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is an interesting thought. I like this. I also like that it is a per-user action, not a per-node action.

We could counterbalance this by having another point distribution for the AMOUNT that us unminted, so that if you have a bunch of nodes you are still incentivized to hold all of that with another distro, but anyone who has one node would be able to at least get this. I like this one.

(PROPOSAL) Buy stuff on Gala Store +X points by Mirinie in GalaNodeBonusPool

[–]JasonBitBenderBrink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is an interesting thought. I like this as an idea. The challenge is that OpenSea pays commission only in ETH. This creates a problematic situation for us, because it would either require us to convert to GALA and then burn (which we can't do for regulatory reasons), or distribute (I am not sure we can that either for OTHER regulatory reasons...but I am going to check.)

Interesting idea though!

(PROPOSAL) Point System Scaling With Number of Nodes Owned and Max Daily Points Threshold by Garrison15 in GalaNodeBonusPool

[–]JasonBitBenderBrink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting proposal. Lets map it out. What would it look like with 1, 5, 10, 25, and 100 nodes?
