Thank you for your proposal.

-I’ve identified a couple of areas that need further improvement to align with our KPIs before fund you.

-Your social media is not active, an active social presence is very important for community like arts and creatives, because it help in creating engagement and visibility, i noticed that your last post was in September 2023, i recommend focusing on improving your social presence or awakening your community and submit a commitment reports

-clarity in deliverables is also very very important, yours is not clear and convince, i suggest refining and detailing your deliverables to provide a clear outline of what you aim to achieve with the funding next time.

i believe addressing these points will strengthen your proposal next time, i encourage you to work on these aspects and consider resubmit in our next funding round.

Unfortunately; i won’t support your submission for this time

Given that you are focused on pushing these dApps out there to Africans, and your budget is small, I will support your proposal.

I wish you luck. Also, not that you need to keep your community active prior to been funded by the NDC to qualify to receive funding.

Hello! Thank you for the comment sir. We just added more clarity to our KPIs, if there is any other info you would like us to add pls let us know.
Also we assure you that they will be improvements in our social media activities going forward.

Thanks for the support sir. We will surely do that.:raised_hands:

Nice proposal Gamers.

My area of concern:

  1. Funding request $1000 but am seeing a total of $1250

  2. How do u intend to introduce those gaming DApps within a month? How many specifically in a month?

I will be willing to support this proposal however I would need clarification on the above concerns. Thanks.

@Clinton can you answer this for finalization please

Thanks for pointing that out sir. All necessary adjustments have been made. What you see under funding for community engagement is just a breakdown of the activities we will be engaging the community with and how we intend to fund them.

As for the Dapps, we surely cannot ultimately cover all the games on Near within the ecosystem in a month and that is why we will be covering 3 games in a month.
I hope that answers your questions sir

That will be ok. Adjust the funding request.

I support this proposal.
