- SPS rewards will be received as staked SPS, not liquid
- Part of this release will allow you to burn SPS for DEC
- First phase of SPS governance
- Day 1 will be proposals put up by the Splinterlands team
- Team has a list of questions they want to present to community
- Community will be able to vote based on their SPS staked weight
- Allows for community to have a say in some company decisions rather than just the team deciding
- User generated proposals will come in a later phase
- Day 1 will be proposals put up by the Splinterlands team
- Team is closing fast on the prerequisites for Land

- Creative teams goal is to have all Rift Watcher assets completed by end of this week
- Will allow Devs to implement the cards in the game fairly quickly and expedite the Rift Watcher timeline
Tournaments/Brawls:
- Team is aware of a bug that is causing certain Tournament/Brawl battles to flee/draw automatically
- New tournament type will be released in tomorrow's maintenance - Splinterlands Open
- New tournament type allows all players to use the exact same cards without having to own/rent them
- Evens the playing field for all participants and lets players play with cards that they may never be able to play with
- Splinterlands Open will provide a maxed version of each card for the League level selected
- New tournament type will also appeal to brand new players and let them try it out before investing or getting in
- This new type of tournament will be limited in terms of only being made by the Splinterlands team
- First tournament of this type will be done at Splinterfest
Community Feedback/Suggestions:
- Team reads majority of the feedback/suggestions that the community creates
- All ideas are taken in consideration, but not all of them are implemented right away because the team analyzes them in which creates new ideas, or creates new obstacles for the team to overcome first
- Top voted community feedback items:
- Set SPS to be claimed and staked instantly
- Team loves the ideal but it is ultimately challenging to implement
- Allocating a certain amount of DEC earned in a day to go straight to Guild Building donations
- Adding a PvE campaign
- Fight preset teams at different levels
- New Splinterlands Open tournament format should help new players learn how to play without needing to invest first
- Set SPS to be claimed and staked instantly

⚡️ Q&A Summary ⚡️
SPS Ranked Rewards:
- Team will release a post about the new SPS Ranked rewards and how the pools work before actually being rolled out
- Since SPS Ranked rewards will have a fixed pool, there will be a fixed amount of SPS for each block that gets processed
- Divided by total number of R shares - RNG can cause you to receive an arbitrary large portion
- Very similar to how the current system works
GLS:
- Game will be a card game, autobattler, and quick sessions
- 2-5 minute sessions so players can play when convenient
Splinterfest Tickets:
- Team wants to sell tickets by the end of the month
- Trying to prioritize this as much as possible so people can begin buying tickets and making their plans to Splinterfest
Rift Watchers:
- "Better have vouchers buddy" - Aggroed
- Team hasn't determined how vouchers will be required yet for RW sale
- Stay tuned for RW Whitepaper for full details
Splinterlands Open Tournaments:
- SPL Open tournaments will most likely require KYC verification to participate
- Most of these tournaments will probably start off as sponsor-based tournaments, so KYC will be the best option in order to prevent multi-accounts
