(5/1) weekly internal call + summary provided directly in tg group channel. (1 mmj)
(5/1) 2hr mtg: onboarding + prepared outline and covered: CH housekeeping, efficiencies, server integration of 2 bots built on NEAR, start-up guide, server infrastructure/ expansion/ migration/ timelines, upcoming guild events, short & long-term goals, use cases for token gating such as raffles, private channels, etc. (4.38 mmj)
(5/2) integration, (5/3) then feature tested MP bots. (4.38 mmj)
(5/4) 35m mtg: clarity on product supporting MP and licensing (1.09 mmj)
summary of tasks: continual server admin, engagement, recruitment!! (which is quite crucial to community building), reorg, streamline group formation (a 24hr process, at least, to account for global timezones), now hosting 3 levels competitively, and the 3rd week for [easy]. in addition, coordinated an [easy:casual] allowing entry-leveled players to learn and participate in raids for their first time; splitting budget report into 2 (CH parties vs personal) starting this week.
since it’s technically my first week (in advisory role), hourly of 2.19 mmj based on this, not 3
(5/9) used NEAR indexer to query # of raids attempted per player per group – this was a “coming soon” functionality announced by the PixelDapp team in April. I’m not a FE dev so simply providing screenshots to our teammates for now; but the BE logic works. could be tweaked since the query still times out sometimes.
(5/10) official server announcement to release contribution data of players choosing to raid competitively and claim weekly bounties.
pending: raffles channel is contingent upon PixelDapp team rolling out “direct item transfers”
preparing for server expansion and migration of advisors on council, contributors, plus 550 general members in the Marmaj Guild.
(5/16) SR (stat ranks) reverse engineered by crowdsourcing heroes’ nude stats of various levels (1-70), although still missing 60% stats, indexed the hp multiplier for heroes (knight/mage/ranger)
(5/21) still new and tweaking formula as reflected in changelog, but end goal is to have a calculator for modifying and normalizing SR, to better and more fairly assess the hero’s true value and qualifications to compete at a certain level [ez/med/hard].
tldr: a high leveled hero but equipped with all common gears provides its team zero assistance…
verify ownership of marmaj holders using Membrane - this has been an ongoing dialogue to obtain more rules & conditions
which will then require onboarding and education on how to sync with NEAR wallet, in order to unlock private channels (future use cases)
finally gathered all MCMs from TG to Discord (adjustment feedback)
research to architect a clean, easy-to-navigate server menu for the whole community
researching the abundant options within discord’s bot ecosystem to integrate, test roles, rules, webhooks’ functionalities
creating auto-role assignment where it makes sense
draft a rules channel (might get bumped to next week)
draft a new “landing” channel, to more broadly welcome and address the Marmaj Guild, not just CH players
goal: starting with MCM migration: get each member to create discord account, if applicable. polls to better understand how category/channels/threads/automation can support each member’s workflow
(5/25) [Approved] Nitro proposal for server upgrades (rate as of 5/26 ~8am ET was 16.59 mmj≈ $90.01)
The Official Marma J Server is being setup through Discord. A server can unlock 3 Levels of perks through “Server Boosts.” The current objective is to unlock Level 2, which would enable the Marma J server to assign unique icons to each role, create private threads (this is crucial as it is functional), upload a customized banner, among other perks listed here.
7 (server) boosts are required to unlock Level 2. We are currently at 2 boosts: meaning we are 5 boosts short. One server boost costs $49.99/year (5 would be $249.95/year). As the server admin, I already subscribed to Nitro Classic monthly at $4.99 out of pocket, in order to provide our server with some basic features like custom animated emojis and upload size increase. The Nitro plan is $5 more ($9.99/mo or $99/year), would grant 30% off server boosts and comes with 2 boosts free! So in essence, the annual subscription of 2 individual server boosts = the same cost total as the Nitro annual subscription (+ 2 boosts and 30% off additional boosts).
A no-brainer The plan would switch from monthly to yearly, with the next renewal set for: Mar 23, 2023.
2 boosts will be immediately applied to our server, with 3 additional boosts sourced hopefully from our community members. More details avail upon request.
(5/22) W21 raids opma: sorted and selected players weighed upon {previous week’s participation % (based on battles) + contribution ratio (based on wins from battles) + adjusted SR (not in-game SR)}
(5/23) ongoing SR calc modifications: by sourcing supplemental class stats: K/M/R
(5/24) 1hr mtg: MCM Meetup x Antigua (3 mmj)
(5/26) by reaching 7 boosts, the Marma J Foundation Official Discord Server unlocked LVL 2 perks! (better audio quality for conducting mtgs, better live streams for screensharing, server banner, custom stickers, and most importantly: private threads)
(5/26) attended the NEAR Town Hall live stream to learn more about the ecosystem from various NEAR initiatives worldwide, project-funding, growth, existing to future potential use cases for NFTs and so much more! Chloe was also part of the Panel (at 1:01:48).
(5/26) began collab x WBAS (whiteboard animated series) voice over for video 1, v1. due to timezone difference, will resume next day in attempt to complete before Sunday’s Workshop.
(5/27) presented opp for purchasing bundle of legendary gears to supple future raffles to marmaj token-holders in our community. fast fwd: 3 items were purchased on Marketplace by unknown, which broke up the bundle price.
(5/27) server: welcome screen popup created (points user to get verified) → screener popup to “read & agree to server rules” created → redirects to #verify channel (tested, version chaanges based on feedback for clearer instructions such as: “cmd” to “command” and “input” to “enter” or “type”) → #rules channel (5 mmj)

(6/16) created 3XR gallery but ID #1192 got hung up during middleware aggregation and never made it to the marmaj.sputnik-dao.near Astro frontend. I wasn’t a part of Astro TG at the time and didnt have a way to reach devs directly. this prevented council from passing it through while also they were packing/ traveling/ out-of-town, with limited wifi access. 4 galleries in total: 2 failed, 1 expired, 1 success (3 mmj)
(6/16) token-gate testing: specifically for NFT holders, not FT
