Is there any transparency about how much he was paid for this partnership? This is the type of move that should be voted on by the governance token. According to his booking website its under $50,000 to work with him but WOW that's still a lot of money. I just looked into his online presence on Facebook, Instagram, his website and he isn't endorsing this deal AT ALL so it basically looks fake right now... His FB is shilling NFTluxe w/ no mention of this project... Can Splinterlands get some legitimate marketing exposure?
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Hate to tell you. That's why they said vote on "most" things. You mean to tell me that they lie? Watch AMA it's always the case. They also laughed and asked why people were holding onto voucher because they would have no value all this year. What a surprise! Wake up people. This is not new.
It's a valid request to make sure that the musician himself is officially endorsing the partnership which i guess does mean an official announcement from the musician or his team.
Perhaps Splinterlands requested the ability to break the announcement and his team was waiting and will come out with a statement soon.
Waka will be helping to promote once we do the official announcement blast with the launch of the storefront. We unfortunately had to get this post live to be used in the store so there is a bit of limbo time.
Great to know thanks that's an important and exciting piece
launch? it'll be sold out in 2 mins. what good will that be?
He tweeted about it not long ago.

But why would Splinterlands request them to be quiet until their announcement is done, what benefit would it be to the game not to allow Waka to share the news as early and as lot as he wants?
Maybe they thought them releasing the news first would give them better Search Engine Optimization.
Admittedly, I have been following this news pretty closely since I first heard about it a few days ago. Patiently awaiting some type of verification from the artist on social media. Hopefully, it is a part of the contract and like you have suggested Splinterlands requested the first announcement.
Fair questions. I think it was mentioned one of the team members knows him, maybe this was free or just a handshake deal? I had questions about the international billboards also, the video looked photoshopped and I never got a proper response back.
If it was free then it's totally cool but I am not seeing any promotion from Waka so all it is serving to do so far is boost his online presence. I seem to remember the Splinterlands announcement for us being able to buy our way into having our own promo card. It would be cool to have some more information about this whole situation. A bunch of people from Hive are talking about Waka Flocka and some other artists on several platforms so I really hope it's true but I am not seeing anything from the artists yet.
There are videos of the billboard in the eye candy channel in discord. There were no photoshopped images with those Zipmex announcements.
Who cares, its Splinterlands own money. They payed him to use his image, who cares how much lol. There is no way its fake, becouse they would get sued instantly for millions.
Thats a good point lol Splinterlands isnt decentralized and they can get sued instantly for millions.
Definitely a very easy question that can be answered in 10 seconds by @aggroed & co.
Also would be neat to know if those SPS and vouchers are going to be burned.
Thanks.
