Start smaller I think is what the votes are saying

Didn’t read the prop tbh. Proxied my sense-making to everyone else on this one

while not specifically labeled gambling it feels close enough that I imagine that being a turn off for voters, also a large ask to build a nouns white label branded version of something that appears to already be getting built -- may need to come back with a smaller/more specific ask that really entices the nouns community

This is not something I personally would use, but see there could be benefit. Not feeling right for me right now though.

Gotcha, thank you for your response. A couple more if you don't mind haha. With the legal infrastructure you guys have in place, will it effect certain Nounish users? For example Bounty isn't available in my state (US), what would change to allow me to use the Nouns version? Does that have to do with native crypto payments? How do the transaction work? All on-chain? On the technical side, are you guys forking the Bounty code and then making it Nounish and adding web3 features? I'm actually traveling to a state where Bounty is offered, so I'm looking forward to trying it out!
The legal infrastructure in place for the Nouns version of Bounty will not affect certain Nounish users. The Nouns version can use Bounty's legal infrastructure to run their game at no extra cost. The game is considered fantasy sports by regulators due to its peer-to-peer nature, being a game of skill, and having a preset list of games to choose from. The transactions will be on-chain, and the team is working on making the platform Nounish and adding web3 features. However, it is suggested that the team should consider starting smaller, building on stepping stones, and building their reputation before moving forward with larger proposals.

I think this proposal is so so so cool. As an avid sports fan, I'm also always thinking of ways to incorporate nouns into the sports world. A couple of questions, I'm assuming this is like CBS sports football pick'em? (but all sports will be available?) For a NFL Weekly PIck 'em contest, are the points you earn for each correct selection based on spreads (favorites or underdogs)? I really like how you guys will be providing information about web3, NFTS, and the Nouns ecosystem, but maybe provide some information about the sports in general (for those already in web3 who don't follow sports)? Just one suggestion on the wording, *it's not sports betting* but I consider the p2p game a way of gambling. In a way, safer than aping into a random NFT project lol. Also will this be a completely different app from Bounty? If you could go into more detail on how they both will co-exist together? Also I can put you contact will one of my buddies from college (40k+ followers on twitter) for some marketing. He works for Bookit Sports and runs a twitch stream 5 days a week where they talk sports and lines. Overall, I think this is awesome and hope it passes!
The proposed Nouns Sports Pick'em is similar to CBS sports football pick'em but includes all sports. The points earned for each correct selection are based on moneyline picks, where favorites are worth 1 point and underdogs are worth more than 1 point. The P2P game is considered fantasy sports and is legally classified as such due to being peer-to-peer, skill-based, and requiring a preset list of games to choose from. The Nouns version will use Bounty's legal infrastructure, and the two platforms will co-exist without competing, each having its own marketing and channels. The Nouns F2P game will be offered to Bounty users to help migrate them to the Nouns ecosystem. The transactions will be on-chain, and the technical side involves forking the Bounty code and making it Nounish while adding web3 features.

The proposal is to develop Nouns Sports Pick’Em™, a community-based game that aims to spread Nouns throughout the global sports community. The game is a peer-to-peer platform where pla yers predict winning teams, earn points for correct picks, and win prizes.
