The People’s Guild

Welcome back to the People's Guild.

We make a return trip to Florida in part two of this week's doubleheader as we bring to you our thoroughly enjoyable conversation with the lord of lore over at team Splinterlands, Joey (@breakingbenjamin).

We hear Joey tell us all about both the creation of the immersive lore within Splinterlands and what's to come with the next era in our beloved universe - including more on Conflicts, some alpha around upcoming Rewards cards and the future Rebellion Expansion set.

Enjoy the show!

Welcome back to the People's Guild. In this one, we sit down with another wonderful community member and valued neighbor in Praetoria, MattClarke.

Our first time hosting MC in more than a year, we've been looking forward to this one for quite some time and we attempted to tee it up to take place just on the heels of Land 1.5 being dropped. Well, we lucked out and instead were greeted with 1.5, Rebellion and the 3rd leak of the 2.0 whitepaper of the Secret of Praetoria's next big installment, Land 2.0.

We have a lot of fun shooting the breeze with our guest and manage to get in plenty of picking MattClarke's brain.

Enjoy the show!

Welcome back to the People's Guild. This week we make a return visit to Tokyo, Japan as we sit down with everyone's favorite lead dev over at team Splinterlands, @cryptomancer.

We get the rundown on all things CM's latest passion project, Rebellion conflicts, and also hear what's coming for guilds, guild brawls and beyond.

Always good to get a chance to hang out with Cryptomancer - especially true with so much coming in the next few weeks to be excited about here in Praetoria.

Enjoy the show!

Welcome back to the People's Guild. We come to you a few days ahead of schedule with this episode as the U.S. gets ready to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday this week.

Our guest in this one is perhaps the most polarizing voice in all of Praetoria and a guy that has been a long time supporter of the show here at TPG, @azircon himself.

We have a great conversation with our guest as we throw some difficult questions his way en route to getting to know Azircon, the human, a bit better.

Enjoy the show!

Welcome back to the People's Guild. This week we welcome in a guest for his second visit to the show and first in the last 6 or so months. He's the VP of Creative over at team Splinterlands and Praetoria's primary peddler of the best eyecandy in town.

We proudly welcome @nateaguila to the show.

Nate gets things started in sharing his remarkable artistic journey and what inspires him. He expresses his deep love for fantasy and science fiction literature and discusses his aspirations in the world of comic book artistry. Nate also mentions the profound influence of independent publishers like Todd McFarlane, who has continued to push the envelope throughout his career and taken an innovative approach to NFTs and blockchain technology.

Our episode also delves into the decision-making process and restructuring within Steemmonsters. We emphasize the crucial role of competent leadership and unity, as they lead to increased efficiency and quicker decision-making. Nate tells us that within the creative team, they've retained members by reducing tasks or hours, and the level of responsibility and involvement within the Splinterlands team varies depending on the project. Invenium provides invaluable support in UI design and graphics, with the aim of fostering mutually beneficial partnerships.

We discuss the board's sentiments regarding the team's financial situation and future, focusing on proactive measures for stability. Over time, the perception of certain situations has evolved, and the team is now in a position to prioritize quality over rushing deadlines.

Furthermore, we touch on the presentation of the impending web 3.0 project's to venture capitalists (VCs), emphasizing the importance of utility and infrastructure development. The project strives to stand out in an industry where NFTs without utility are commonplace. Nate highlights the significance of utility and revenue in the cryptocurrency ecosystem and how it can provide substantial value to VCs when they partner with a company built on a strong foundation.

Overall, this episode of The People's Guild podcast offers a comprehensive exploration of the Splinterlands universe, covering various aspects such as game development, artistry, decision-making, and the importance of utility in the crypto space.

Upwards & onwards!

Enjoy the show.

Welcome back to the People's Guild. The bus pulls into Southern California for this one as we sit down with a Hive & Splinterlands OG, fellow content creator and great analytical mind in our community. The People's Guild were hosted over on their show about 6 weeks ago on [Episode 10](https://peakd.com/hive-13323/@stever82/into-the-splinterverse-episode-10-with-the-peoples-guild) - which at this point, given the recent shake-ups, feels like a lifetime ago.

Join us in welcoming @stever82 to the show!

We immediately get into the impact of the announcements from this week and talk @splinterlandstv. Being a long-time streamer on the platform, Steve shares his insights and we all reflect on this experiment. We discuss what future iterations of SPLTV could look like before shifting gears and zooming out.

From there, we take a look at the bigger picture of all things affected by the waves made in this week's announcement. Each of us take a few moments to share our immediate reactions and where things have settled in our minds after a bit of time to digest.

We touch on the potential and impending impacts on Rebellion, the DAO, and SPS governance. Steve provides some profound food for thought on his takeaways from some key comments from Matt and we take a bit to expand on *if* we are able to achieve Yabapmatt's vision, there is truly some remarkable stuff in the future of this ecosystem.

Throughout the rest of the conversation, we make our way through discussion across the full gamut. We look at distractions from the last 12 months and promises outstanding. We look at DEC. We look at the underlying value of recent card sets and discuss what both the entrance of Rebellion and what the team can do to support the longer-term value of these sets.

Great conversation with a great guest and there's a ton of insight to take away from this episode.

Enjoy the show.

Welcome back to the People's Guild. We make a stop in South Carolina, USA to catch up with one of our favorite personalities in all of Praetoria. He's a guy who last graced the People's Guild podcast back in Episode 40 - upon which he made some more-relevant-than-ever points, and his approach to make the most of them, regarding what's to come for Splinterlands & the greater crypto market. He's got his own YouTube channel over at SHQ: NFT Gaming & Collectibles(https://www.youtube.com/@nftgamingandcollectibles) and runs a great show with the help of his co-host, @gank.

We present to you our conversation with the one & only @walkingkeys!

Keys kicks us off with a discussion around his previous dabbling in the world of stand-up comedy and hear how this has affected his subsequent pursuits & interactions, both personal & professional.

Our guest then shares some alpha on his latest endeavor, a new podcast that Keys will be getting published as soon as September 28th. This new show, *Temporarily Obsessed*, aims to offer long-form interviews with guests from all different backgrounds and walks of life, highlight 30-day skill learnings and generally pursue curiosities with a like-minded community. Exciting stuff. We'll certainly be following along with this new project!

The episode takes a turn towards Splinterlands and we dive into some discourse around land, Rebellion & beyond as we take turns sharing some projections & speculation.

We round things out bringing the episode full circle in discovering, a story previously unbeknownst to us, why our guest *Walkingkeys* chose this name and what its grown to mean to him over the years.

A wonderful perspective with which to approach the world.

Enjoy the show!
