OPTOPICS 🔴 🐙 ⏱️

I propose that we play an OPTOPICS Cagendas game at this week’s Optimism Town Hall. The game rules are below and you can learn more at Optimystics.io/OPTOPICS. There are three main actions that you can take while playing OPTOPICS: suggest topics, vote on topics, and switch topics.

Suggest Topics

Create a poll in the Optimism Town Hall snapshot space at any time to suggest a topic. Feel free to suggest anything related to Optimism.

Tip: When creating a topic proposal you can set the Voting Type to Weighted Voting, then set two poll options to Upvote and Abstain. This isn’t necessary, but provides greater ability for everyone to weigh their preferences while voting for topics.

Vote on Topics

Vote on topics with Respect to help set the agenda. The topic with the most votes will be discussed until the group decides to switch topics. Feel free to change your vote at any time.

Switch Topics

OPTOPICS features an optimistic topic transition system that allows anyone to influence the discussion as the game progresses and help move the group to the next topic. Here’s how it works:

• Next Topic: Type ‘next topic’ in the zoom chat to propose moving to the next topic. This starts a one-minute countdown.
• Same Topic: Type ‘same topic’ within one minute to veto the change. If vetoed, neither person can propose to switch or veto again for the current topic.
• New Topic: If over half of well respected community members agree (each with at least 50 Respect), any topic can be introduced and discussed immediately.

Feel free to suggest any topics related to Optimism. I also plan to follow up with at least one topic suggestion in the coming days. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and seeing you at the events!
