How YOU can contribute to Mission Control
In the past we have tried many ways to include the community in our development process, like in the recent Trilium Think Tank. And while we appreciate your ideas (best post them in #suggestions in our Discord, thank you!), this article revolves around other ways of contributing to Mission Control:
Staking CPU
Very recently, Mission Control released the feature of paying CPU for certain transactions on the Mission Control website, like mining. We will improve this feature over time to ensure we can help the players who need it the most.
In the meantime everybody, who has some remaining WAX you are sure not to need in the next days, can help out with this: simply stake the WAX towards CPU for cpu.mc — that is the account which uses the CPU to pay for the transactions on the Mission Control website. The funds will still be yours, you will still get the staking rewards as usual. And as for other CPU stakes, you can start the 72 hour unstake at any time. But while staked, you are helping out other Mission Control members in need!
Sponsoring adventures
For a quick overview of what adventures are, please look here. In a nutshell: Every day players are confronted with one adventure task, trying to maximize their Reward Points by sending the most fitting combination of three Alien World NFTs on an adventure (staking them) for the duration of the adventure.
Sponsoring an adventure costs 5,000 TLM. Most of these funds go directly to the Mission Control prize pool, thus benefitting the players of Mission Control. So on one hand sponsoring adventures is about increasing the weekly prize pool for Mission Control. On the other hand sponsoring adventures comes in three shapes, to individually best fit the needs of the sponsor:
- Designing an adventure: If you want to create a customized adventure, before sponsoring one please contact our team directly via Discord. We would then design the theme, description and image together. Be it a DAO that wants an adventure featuring their planet, it was your daughters wedding or you want to celebrate your dog: we can make it all happen, while also increasing the rewards for the players of Mission Control in the process.
- Start an existing adventure: To start a specific adventure you can visit the “Sponsor an adventure” page on Mission Control. There is a list of all existing adventures, as well as button to sponsor the selected adventure right away.
If you are a custodian, you have the possibility to initiate the fully prepared proposal to sponsor the adventure with your planet, also just by clicking the respective button. - Start a random adventure: this is all too complicated, you just want the simplest way to sponsor an adventure? Just send 5,000 TLM (or more) to adventure.mc with the memo “adventure” to start a random adventure instantly.
Increasing the Weekly Prize Pool
Mission Control has a proven weekly questing system and working reward system for the members of Mission Control. You want to distribute TLM to the players without any additional effort? You want to support the members of Mission Control? You think the players deserve more rewards? Then the most direct way of doing so is sending TLM directly to our prize pool account pool.mc — no specific memo required.
Every week, 10% of the available funds on pool.mc are automatically used to enqueue another reward week to the Mission Control weekly reward system. The funds on pool.mc aren’t used for anything else, just for player rewards through the Mission Control weekly reward system.
We hope this article gives more insight on the different ways of how you can support the members of Mission Control in easy ways. If there are any questions or you want to contribute to the development of Mission Control with funds or ideas, please also don’t hesitate to contact us on our Discord!
