I am voting NO on this proposal. Although it certainly seems like a great tool with cool features, I am not sure it can achieve unique outcomes from existing funding models. Given that funding is already split via Prop House, on-chain, and then other centralized funding models like NSFW/DCS/Explorer Grants, I think were possibly entering a diminishing returns era with new funding infrastructure. New funding models need to make a strong case for why their specific system is really needed. While I admire the product, I dont see that case in this proposal.

I do NOT support a complete speeding freeze, but just happen to think that the redundancy with prop house makes this proposal not worth allocating resources to

This does not need to exist. Prop House, Explorer Grants, NSFW, etc. already exist. New allocation methods should be sufficiently different.

there are some interesting ideas here. but instead of creating a new thing, id rather see this integrated into or built on top of prop house so the next lego brick can stack on top of this one.

On this prop: Weve spent so much on prop house that we should be all in there and hope to get a major W from its existence long term. Our community is already quite fragmented, I dont want to see our creators also become confused on where / how they should be proposing. Additionally: we are currently in a state where nouns sell for half of book value and proposals are asking for far too much funding I am for a spending freeze until we can sort out communication with all parties, better capital controls, and solve the dilution problem

Not sure we need an alternative to prop house, we need more proliferation and less tooling.

This team has been very receptive to feedback and ideas to help shape this into a platform that is valuable to anyone looking to run contests, especially integrated with Twitter. We use it already at TNS and have begun to implement in Gnars, will implement in Alps DAO and have been discussing its use in Nouncil. Needless to say, there is many many use cases for this. I dont see this as too similar to prop house, its a different capital allocation mechanism, different user experience and targets a wildly popular aspect of being able to grow the community and onboard new artists and builders. I feel like this is complimentary to prop house in the ecosystem.

**Nouncil Vote:** 34 Yes, 8 No, 2 Abstain 6 Nouncillors abstained from the decision **YES WINS** --- **Vote Reasons & Discussion** --- **Coral Orca** | *i like it* **marxistmillionaire** | *Nice to see this prop on-chain! The first Creator Contests were held for SharkDAO, so I witnessed the whole process from the very beginning. Solid team, very useful tool. Its a clear YES for me!* **andreitr** | *Love the UI and product direction. Solid prop, imho. @nick , lmk if you guys need any help with Twitter integration.* **Benbodhi** | *This platform has been a joy to use and reduces admin of running contests efficiently by a LOT. The team are receptive to changes and additions and I have had the pleasure of helping shape the direction and features for the last couple of months. We use it at TNS and have the ability to use this across a number of other communities/projects/DAOs that Im involved in.* ⌐◨-◨ **Coral Orca** | *sounds interesting and usefull* **Josep** | *I have been looking at your project and have been able to see the involvement of the team and functionality of your project for the DAO. I want to see what you are able to do in the future.* **JoshuaFisher** | *app has been great to use and very helpful* **byhardy** | *Bad timing here with the recent large funding of Prop House. Im of the belief that products with similar end goals should collaborate to benefit everyone, not divide attention.* **kerimbonia** | *even though im not 100% clear on the question of overlap with prop house and some of the push back on this proposal, im voting yes for the team on this one.* **wiznav** | *I think this overlaps too much with prop house* **Satori** | *This is a hugely beneficial tool for contests hosted on social media and I think this could co-exist or even be integrated into Prop House one day.* **pemburux** | *Its bad timing for this funding, actually we need more proliferation and less tooling* --- For more Nouns DAO proposal discussion head to the Nouncil Discord: https://discord.gg/nouncil

The Calabara team, consisting of Nick and Weez, is seeking 60 ETH in funding to continue developing Creator Contests for a 3-month sprint. Creator Contests is a middleware for distributing funds to creatives within the Nouns community. The contests allow participants to submit entries in response to a prompt, with winners chosen by voters and subsequently receiving funds.
