command in the #d20-agora channel to start a solo quest, and use -f for fast modepytest
from project root.The d20 bot allows communities to play governance games in an LLM-mediated environment. Individuals and groups can come together to embark on a governance “quest”, where they make lightweight decisions about the community and experience varied mechanisms of decision-making. The bot moderates the governance game through different "culture modules" - playfully modifying users' messages to cultivate diverse interaction environments for participants.

Start in the #d20-agora channel and use the /embark
command to start a new quest, specifying which quest you want to play as well as the number of players. The bot will create a new channel for the quest and direct you to it.
Players are welcomed and introduced to the game's objectives: deciding the group's name, main topic of interest, and way of speaking. The group explores conversational confusion and deliberates to shape the community's communication in the agora.
Players propose names for the group and deliberate. A random culture module may be activated during this period, affecting the conversation. After deliberation, players vote on the proposed names.
Players propose and deliberate on the group's main topic of interest. After a set deliberation time, players vote on the proposed topics.
Players discuss and propose the group's way of speaking, considering formality, tone, and style.
A record of the decisions made is published, summarizing the options considered and methods used.
The "culture" of the community is generated from the group decisions. A new wildcard prompt is generated based on the decided upon community name, purpose, and goal. Players then return to #d20-agora channel where they can test out their new community culture using the /wildcard
command. When wildcard mode is on, all language that happens in the agora will be transformed according to the community's culture.
Your culture will affect your communication. Think about what cultural environment you want in your community and how you would like that culture to impact your communication. For example, you already experienced a culture of “eloquence” where your communication with your fellow community members was automatically transformed to be in verbose Shakespearean rhetoric.
The culture you decide on will become a new communication constraint you can invoke in the agora channel and will become playable in subsequent Build a Community games.
The agora channel (#d20-agora) is a free-form Discord channel where your community can test out the various features and embark on quests.
