Hive account@davemccoy , aren't you a part of the Splinterlands board? I don't think your opinion is unbiased. And I don't think that mentality that got us here will fix the problem.

This proposal is devaluation of DEC and will only create inflation - this proposal is literally to sell a dollar value for 80 cents - this is the definition of the inflation. And with burning Vouchers for discounted DEC we add direct minting of new DEC on top of discounting it in the first place. (And I sure am burning my Vouchers for it to mint me free DEC!)

You can't force the demand for a product nobody wants!
Splinterlands should first make a good game and then demand would come - but that is harder than just writing proposals and making promises of the future gains, isn't it?
