Previously every tournament had an entry fee and the proposed burn for extra entries is lower than many of those were. I'm not attached to this thing either way, I've been dealing with people asking me to bring back entry fees for months and I think this is a better option than bringing back entry fees though.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Was there a DAO vote to remove the tourney buyins and to make the other changes that were done?
Also, all of these posts that are done as an employee for the DAO, should have 100% of the rewards go to the DAO.
I have seen you say that there has been discussion about it and it isn't a big deal either way, I disagree, it is the principle.
You are paid $60,000 a year to work on behalf of the DAO, and these posts are part of that work. These posts add up and could easily total a few thousand dollars over the year, and are part of the value proposition of hiring for the position you hold.
If you are going to take additional DAO money on top of the $60,000 you are paid, that needs to be voted on.
This is the number you're looking for... feel free to go back and double check my math if you'd like. If you want to go make a proposal about whether or not I should delegate the post rewards, be my guest.
Again, whether it is $1 or thousands of dollars, is not an argument why it is okay for you to tip yourself extra DAO money for the work that you are paid very well to do.
There should be a DAO President account or similar type account where all these posts are made from that is owned by the DAO.
I find it interesting how you seem to be so principled about the technical side of things when we discuss any other DAO subject (such as our most recent conversation about Hive Power proposal/vote process) but in this conversation, where you financially benefit, you are not concerned about the technical side, and instead get defensive and dismissive.
If you want to be paid a bonus for the work you do on behalf of the DAO, you should be the one writing up a DAO proposal, because as of now, a proposal shouldn't be needed for the DAO to be the one to benefit from DAO paid work.
No and there wasn't one to add them before that either. The team handed off tournaments to me shortly after I took this position. I spent a few months hearing opinions in discord and running proposals and by the end everyone was pretty much tired of it and just bickering. Ultimately we passed a proposal to apportion rewards (which is how Alpha tournaments went away and we got 2 Random tournaments) and the rest was up to me to figure out. The team removing league level limits and adding forced advancement kind of led some of my thought process. I have 3 ongoing stake-weighted polls that I shared in the Tournament room on Discord you should check out since this proposal seems like it's going to fail.
Tourney entry fees predated SPS creation and thus did not need a vote to be 'added' as that was the Standard Operating Procedure for tournaments, which included legal expertise to ensure it would not fall into the gambling category.
