It's p2p assessment so people can have their skills verified in a decentralized and more interactive/social way than institutional credentials.

Design a 6-week adventure or course that should involve a clear goal, steps, a supporting community and clear outcomes. A reviewer reviews it and group of reviewers can vote to fund it.

Funding - why is there funding involved, i.e. why its necessary or where it comes from? Is it incentive or do adventures require funding? If incentive could someone stake their own funds to motivate themselves?

For example, a playground might be to go through some big ethereum or ipfs reading list and summarize - doesn't need funding but to do it in 6 weeks some additional extrinsic motivation would be helpful. Is that an ok playground?

Or if this is more for generative proposals that really create new knowledge like a research internship then maybe a good adventure template that asks more probing questions would help?

Playground Improvement Proposals - shouldn't the creator of the Playground and not just the Dictator have a say in whether they're accepted?

(Might be cool if someone could fund a Mentor or Coach for a Playground.)

The funds are meant to enable people to do things that they wouldn't be able to without. So adventures should be doing enough that funds are necessary to support them.

This bit is defintiely unclear (especially the where funds come from bit). I think we could expand on it in the How it works section.

This feels kind of abstract @jaredpereira. A UX approach is empirical: you should work with 5-7 people to iterate on some realistic playgrounds.
