Multiple participants on an adventure #8

So if they are multiple participants on an adventure, how do we share the grant? If an adventure is much more ambitious than another, will it get bigger funding?

I think it's important at the start at least for funding to be a fixed amount. This keeps the scope simple and concrete, and limits the decision making to fund or don't fund, as opposed to "how much".

Multiple adventurers self-organizing

However I think adventures can still have multiple participants, who can independently decide how to share the grant between themselves. From the playground's perspective we would just be sending funds to an address. This could be managed manually by adventurers or by a smart-contract, but is outside the Playground process.

Connecting distinct adventures

We should also allow and encourage adventures to reference each other and work together. This way if two people want to work on the same thing but doing distinct parts they can just reference each other in their adventure proposals (or one can reference the other if it comes later).

This does mean they would be evaluated seperately, which does limit some kinds of adventures, but I think we can figure out over time how to expand that.

Ok sounds good, this should definitely be in the description and get feedback on it. I feel like 5k for one person for 6 weeks is a lot but maybe I'm underestimating how big an adventure can be
