So, I know Steem Monsters is cool, but I didn't expect this level of reaction in the first week on the alpha. I barely mentioned it last week on Minnow Mayor Town Hall last Sunday and in this past week the community has purchased 1.3k of SBD worth of monsters and 710 Steem of Monsters! Y'all are Monster crazy!!! I think we're going to hit $4000 USD sold in the first week before the show goes live. It's awesome.
It's funny. I was just nudging Andrarchy about getting product out there, and already I'm feeling it. Folks are wondering when the guilds start, when trading starts, when the fighting starts, how combinations start, we've had 1-2 missed purchases and we're looking into it. The best part though is that over and over you guys keep saying "this is awesome" "I love Steem" "this is soooo coooool!" I'm stoked that you're stoked.
What's up next?
We're working on combining cards to level them faster, a couple of UI changes, we're setting some of the skill points and abilities, we're going to get the trading functional, we have a Discord and we'll get some informal teams started in there, and of course the fighting.
I'm been asked about a couple different promotional opportunities, I've been asked about coding work, I've been asked about price breaks for large purchases, I've been asked about Whitepapers and investments. Honestly, it's been a bit of a hectic day!!!
The short answer is I'm not entirely sure. I figured we'd mosey along with this and that eventually it would pick up steam. I didn't expect it to be a hit overnight. We don't have a plan in place for this level of success just yet!
So... the goal is to talk about Steem Monsters. See what you all want, give out some packs, and hopefully have
Investment
At the moment we're not looking for investors in the project. That may be subject to change later, but we have an income stream already in excess of our bills. So, honestly right now we don't need it.
White paper
I'm not sure what to do about this. I've been asked for it a few times. I tend to think it's an investment thing... I'll be putting some posts together that dive into the math of how the game will play, but I don't think we're going to white paper this baby. Again, we have income in excess of our needs. I don't think we need a white paper as much as some nerdy documents on the 
Giveaway
I'm planning on giving away packs. Technically I'll be giving away SBD from the
If you win and don't want the monsters I'm happy to give you SBD, but would only provide half as much.
Supporting the chain
My plan is also to donate 25-50 SBD to the open mic prize pool. I'm also planning on sending some weekly donations to 
Other guests- YOU

Two rules. Make sure sounds from the speakers don't go into the mic.
