Whale Club #90

Open ekerstein opened 6 years ago

ekerstein commented 6 years ago

Purpose: Provide an exclusive area for only ICO investors to relax without annoying non-ICO plebs interfering.

Description: As we all know, the ICO was very exclusive and that's a good thing! Every society has the 1% and the rest of the huddled masses. All day people have been complaining "the ICO wasn't fair", and "it's not de-centraland, it's centraland", and other whining. As part of the 1%, I don't want to be bothered by this complaining in my new virtual estate.

I think it would be smart to model it after real-life 1% hangouts like a luxury resort, mega yacht, or private island. This will provide the most comfortable and familiar environment that the upper crust of society are used to.

One possible style of luxury resort that could be built. (One possible style of luxury resort that could be built.)

In the future, changes in the virtual landscape may allow for more creative opportunities. A private island for example would be a great way to create a natural barrier between the whales and everybody else. With our plentiful MANA we should be able to easily afford it.

The ultimate exclusivity at Whale Island. (The ultimate exclusivity at Whale Island.)

Entry to the Whale Club

Everybody likes to feel included. So as part of our official communications about Whale Club, we will actually be sending information to all users in the community. Now you might be thinking "but wait, I don't want to associate with beggars and losers". Don't worry! See, the trick is the official communication won't actually provide any useful information. Isn't that hilarious!

For example, the official communication will tell all users interested in joining the Whale Club to meet in a central area, which could be a park or other pleb gathering place. Let's call this place codename "Chrome extension". Meanwhile everybody in the know will have true access to the club through what we'll call "pools" or "buying contracts". Think of these as the equivalent of stretch limos and private planes. To be clear, these methods of accessing Whale Club will never be publicly acknowledged. And afterwards, when all the average users are left out in the rain, we will just pretend like they should have known about them all along! It's the perfect filter. I can't wait to see all those disappointed faces.

EmmaMakhno commented 6 years ago

I will submit a proposal for digital crocodiles to put in your moats that can smell how much mana and land people own so they protect the 1% DCL elites from all those filthy poors trying to sneak into elysium . MWAHAHAHAa!

There should be a 1000 gwei fence around Whale Club to keep out the riffraff and peasants.

ekerstein commented 6 years ago

@seekr I appreciate the hat tip sir, but this proposal is 1000% real. Whale Club will be a (virtual) reality.

seekr commented 6 years ago

@ekerstein, sir, I do not question the authenticity of the proposal, in fact my hat tipping is to practice for the job application of "Valet" of the Whale Club. Or maybe Majordomo of the club? let me know when you take applications. 🎩

Who bought land in this district?

luowenw commented 6 years ago

Hi Edward, the district voting is almost closed, are you going to continue this proposal? I had staked in this district. I really like this ideal so please don't let them have this canceled

ekerstein commented 6 years ago

Hi, what do I need to do to proceed the proposal?

luowenw commented 6 years ago

Hi Edward, you will need to reach out to Esteban for the startup proposal. It seems we don't have much time as the voting should last 2 weeks and it should finished before the 25th. I have a draft proposal and you can join the discord channel to discuss https://discord.gg/cWWPg8
