There's a resurgence of social growth happening again via FC/Discord/X/etc.
On our end, we just launched a viral Discord campaign for Pirate Nation that's driving a lot of users to partners
The web3 incentive model of getting users to try out new products & tell others about it is (currently) highly effective

Dropping some OG Kygo before he was big. Tropical house is attributed to Thomas Jack but Kygo got me into it over 10yrs ago

Is anyone seeing reduced visibility or surfacing from threads from supercast? Maybe we're just bad casters?
FYI we went live with our own chain today for Pirate Nation. The gas costs from Nova were spiking 5-6x normal. This is the only way to scale onchain games, happy to answer questions about it if anyone is curious.
By far the coolest part of building onchain for me is having others use what we're building as a building block for their own works.
It's really hard to convince other talented devs that they should use your tech or build on top of your product, so I'm grateful and humbled every time it happens.

I don't know what qDAU is and at this point I'm too afraid to ask.
Really excited to announce this. We've been paying gas fees out of pocket and intentionally limiting user growth until we figured out how to scale / shard the game.
GM all. Beautiful day in NY today
Thanks everyone that tried out our new frame today. We’re tapped out. (We even refilled the mint bucket twice!)
That being said, we’re just getting started with FC & frames
Already have ideas for more giveaways & ways to create games within the FC feed
Make sure to sub /piratenation for future frame drops

@fern- and I will be answering questions from the one and only @accountless.eth in the /ama channel on Wednesday at 9:30AM ET.
We spent the last year running /piratenation: an EVM-based, gasless, fully onchain game w/ thousands of active players & 10M+ tx
Come by and hear why we are so excited about onchain gaming!

It’s physics. Even if you don’t believe it to be true, doesn’t mean it isn’t happening.
What did everyone ship this week?

So many incredible JRPGs dropping this year. Personally looking forward to FF7 Rebirth. What are you all playing?
One of my favorite rituals at Proof of Play is our Friday wind down where the team demos what they worked on that week and we celebrate each other’s hard work.
I always come away inspired, grateful for being able to work with talented colleagues, and with positive vibes ready to take on the next week.

Fine I'll bite. Here are some early FB apps that took off. All are suitable for frames IMO:
Poker, Zynga's first big game
Drug Wars/Mafia Wars, 2nd big game
Quizzes - Which Harry Potter house are you etc.
Draw on my wall
Tamogachi-style pet apps
Crowd-fundraiser/donate to a cause style apps.

Ethereum tooling has gotten really good to the point that it’s a joy to develop in. Paradigm (and copilot) have a lot to do with this.
Happy new year FC! Looking forward to spending more time in 2024 with the builders here
