    This is a vote of confidence in Sam Ellis, who is here building in Nouns every day (Blocks, Nouncil, Auction Tracker, Story Bible, The Noun Square and more.) At this point it does look like this Proposal will fail, but I just want to encourage Sam to iterate and come back with something on a smaller scale and with broader support, so he can knock it out of the park and then go on to create the next Archer or Adventure Time (but make it Nounish.)

    Nouncil has voted 41-0-3 in favor of this proposal. Sam spoke on our weekly call and gave an outline of his teams project. He argued that top tier animation talent will not leave secure employment for a short term gig, so if the DAO wants something truly amazing to be produced here, a sufficiently scaled project is required to attract them. We know Sam to be a consistent builder in the space and a talented illustrator and so even though this Proposal ask is quite large, overall we support his efforts to try and make something really special here that could truly raise the profile of the Nouns brand tremendously if executed properly. If this Proposal fails, we hope Sam and team will find another way to iterate, reframe, and try again.
