Continue the Dota and Esports experiment! Extending the signing of our Dota roster until after The International in October, with the mission to proliferate Nouns through esports competition.
Nouns Esports was founded with the passing of Proposal 68, which brought a Professional Dota team under the Nouns banner. They won a large North American tournament and currently have a 6-1 standing in the Dota Pro Circuit "DPC" - the most important qualifier matches leading to the biggest tournament in the world, The International.
The teams' current term with the DAO will end on July 17th, after the DPC. Because of their DPC standing, they currently have a strong probability of attending the upcoming Arlington Major in August. Since our current proposal ends before this event, it makes sense to extend their term with the DAO. Their success in the rest of the DPC and the Major will determine if they qualify directly to The International.
If you want to learn more about Prop #68, an accountability report was posted detailing how funds from the proposal were spent.
July 17th - Prop #68 Ends
July 16th-August 19th - Thunderpick Bitcoin Series TBS
TBD July 17th-20th - Potential DPC Tiebreakers
July 28th-30th - ESL Malaysia Qualifiers
August 04-14th - Arlington Major
August 23rd-28th - ESL Malaysia
TBD likely September - The International Regional Qualifiers
Oct 15-30 - The International
November 1st - Proposal Ends
We are also adding 30 ETH to our on-chain ask in order to account for ETH/DAI volatility. ETH will be converted to match the estimated DAI distribution shared - surplus ETH will be returned to the DAO.
We will be using the same multi-sig that was created via Proposal 68 consisting of Nouners and Nounsfolk. We will be swapping in Nouners Brian Cho and Oni to replace Wag and Goldy.
