This is a weekly update of the status of system.
Still in quiet mode. I've decided that I'm going to rebalance things so that I can cover the delegation when it expires; that may lead to some of the accounts losing 100 SP or so, and will run my own account down to nothing for a while, but is the least-work method of keeping things going here.
The least-work method is likely to be maintained through the winter at least. I've been doing some long-term planning and it doesn't involve spending a lot of extra time on this project. But as long as it can be left running while I do other things it might as well continue.
Extra delegations to the small accounts this week just to get them some more RCs.
The Mesopotamians is a project to use ongoing support and gamification to encourage account growth and build a class of community-minded minnows and eventually dolphins. This project is run by .
The Mesopotamians uses a six-level system of automated votes to encourage specific users to invest in their accounts and make community contributions. As a user progresses up the levels the value of vote they receive increases. Before advancing to each new level a user will be asked to envision, develop, and implement a new project with community benefit.
The Mesopotamians is an outgoing support initiative, not a vote-trading scheme. Support from our members is appreciated but not in any way required.
Users are chosen for the program by in a completely-unfair and usually-opaque selection process based on what he thinks is important for the community and who he thinks would be a good dolphin someday. He's giving his own money away here so he's ok with that, but it's best to be upfront about it.
