gm farcaster and please let us know if you hear us because streamyard has been having some major issues today so we're just gonna do a quick check and make sure we have sound everywhere

1:53Speaker 2

want me to check

1:54Speaker 1

yeah i'm gonna do a quick check on twitter okay see if that's working yep it seems to be working now it was not working earlier so i think we are good but thank you that was working now it was not working earlier i hear it i hear it oops that was that's still okay banger oh my god it's been a day let me tell you we're we're i'm just barely hanging on here yep okay i hear us okay so we're live woo hoo this is good i'm just been very nervous about this today that it wasn't gonna work and trying to figure out alternatives and all the fun things but we are here and we have a winner for our first challenge so i think we need to start there and adrienne what did you think of the meme challenge

3:00Speaker 2

okay

3:02Speaker 2

i i before i go into the actual meme challenge i just wanna make a comment on cast out in general okay just because we we ran this in june with two tribes and 16 people and now we have eight tribes 40 people i found it really hard to keep up with the number of yeah of memes that were dropping i'm finding it hard to to kind of like keep track of the tribes

3:33Speaker 2

so because i'm kind of like i'm

3:37Speaker 1

not gonna get that i under i underestimated the cat herding because and i should have remembered this from the first time and like how much there's just a lot of questions and things you don't think of when you set the challenges up that like then you're kind of dealing with that throughout and making sure everybody's on the same page so i had a lot of issues with that over the past two days for sure

4:07Speaker 2

yeah and and people don't always know exactly how like there there are a lot of questions about rules and this and i you're you're doing a great job i i have brain rot i have so i find it hard to to keep up when there's more than one thing i need to look at

4:24Speaker 1

that's so

4:27Speaker 2

what i found really interesting just in general like eight memes dropped

4:35Speaker 2

forecaster is so much bigger than we were a year ago and i think even sick like six months ago in terms of i think like breaking away from monoculture so i think when we ran this even six months ago it was like and maybe this was a nature also of who was playing six months ago but it it tended to be like the memes that came out like i knew exactly what they were about and what i'm noticing because we have tribes that are kind of coming from different communities i don't even understand them all

5:07Speaker 1

i know i had the same issue and i was like i do not exactly know what this is about but okay yeah it's really interesting i i think it's fun like i've i've been enjoying like because i'm in the group chats i'm getting to know some of the players who i did not know at all and really interesting to just see different approaches to this completely so

5:33Speaker 2

yeah and to be clear i love it like i love that there's jokes i don't necessarily understand or and to see memes and and different communities get an insane amount of engagement on their memes and it just goes to show like yeah i think there's we we've we've gone past our monoculture days which is great for the future of farcaster

5:56Speaker 1

i agree i agree so let's dive in and share what these memes were so really fun we had eight different memes as you'll see oops let me set this to this one and they were all very different like very different

6:18Speaker 2

are we on a new link by the way i don't i i know there's some people watching and there are some players i'm you keep showing but i think

6:29Speaker 1

is something getting messed up

6:33Speaker 2

ah no i'm still oh there seems to be some confusion alright so let me

6:40Speaker 1

i think i did drop a new link so that might be why okay because we went yeah because the i thought we were gonna need to adjust to streamyard studio so i apologize yeah we are on a different

6:53Speaker 2

i will just share a link to our youtube channel sorry i'm so sorry everybody whoops

7:01Speaker 1

okay while she's doing that i'm gonna show yeah because i pivoted really quick because i didn't think youtube was gonna work so i pivoted to our streamyard studio and then i added youtube and twitter there and then we jumped in there and so sorry didn't mean to mess you all up today streamyard has been having challenges not just for us so anyway so this is our first challenge challenge one was memes it's cast out meme coy coin island so of course we're starting with memes fire up the meme maker and create the meme with the most engagement on warpedcast to win this reward challenge so nobody is being voted out after this challenge today the winning tribe will split 100 tokens 20 each and 1,000,000 cast out tokens 200 ks each plus adrian and i are going to select our faves for a bonus so there's going to be two other tribes that are going to get a little bonus as well so they had to cast the memes in the channel in whatever channel they wanted and they i kind of left it very open and so there was some interesting creativity so here's our first one hey clanker drop tua to help cover my legal fees so this is playing off of octua and sort of her issues with dropping a token and you see the chart in the background now here's the thing with this one this is my favorite it it like nothing even came close to me okay from an artistic perspective so this is gonna be my my fan favorite my personal favorite who's gonna get a bonus from me and we're gonna be sending out some cast out tokens to our two fan favorites our favorites prop adrian favorites i should say and this was done by sloppy pencil who is an animated animation amazing animator who used to work with rick and morty so incredible work and there's just a lot of detail in this that is like to me just next level so they created this gif they did this original art this is like original art instead of just pulling a photo the real chart is in the background so it's just like i don't know the attention to detail here was just really funny and then they actually launched the token to go along with it so

9:33Speaker 2

it's timely it's crazy yeah so funny it's also picking up on current news events if i just can't believe i said news events

9:42Speaker 1

i know right like this is news it's crazy but here's our winner by the way this one's our winner so that was my my my pick but here's our winner how many meme coins have you deployed by clangr on farcaster so this has these little guys in here so one day two little ai agents it's like they're telling a campfire story just for those who are just listening and aren't looking at the memes but for this particular episode you're definitely gonna want the video version because it's not gonna make sense otherwise one day two little ai agents came to firecaster to develop technology but people were forcing them to create billions of useless meme coins a day no utility no technology just useless meme coins and they will be used like this forever oh my gosh farcaster ethernet and clanker are just kids like don't tell them the scary story so very cute and that was the winner so the foamies have won the prize for this one for this reward challenge and i'll be sending out your winnings so that was the foamies tribe congratulations foamies congratulations foamies

10:47Speaker 2

we'll have to talk well we're gonna have to talk tactics later

10:51Speaker 1

yeah definitely there was a lot on tactics we're definitely gonna dive into some of the tactics and some of the issues of the tactics this one was from the f c o f tribe that one nine to five office worker finally walks into the tribe chat this is really meta level funny so like you and i probably appreciate this meme a lot more than anybody else looking at it because we could see their chat so so their chat is like four people kind of like trying to get this going and like we've got you know one person who hasn't checked in yet so it's like it was really funny i think it could apply to any group chat but it was kind of fun so i did like this and i apologize i am very sick like i am covid level sick so i'm doing the best i can and this is ruggling so if i was with you in miami sorry i don't know what i have but you probably gave it to me this one was from the purple tribe my bags have abs meme coin two hours after launch meme coin two days after launch and i thought this was hilarious this was my one of my other favorites too and i think this was your pick right this was team purple

12:10Speaker 2

and this was yeah was this team purple

12:12Speaker 1

team purple

12:13Speaker 2

so the reason i like this is because i'm a simple person

12:21Speaker 2

don't make me read all those words don't make me read a lot of words i am simple

12:26Speaker 1

i like simple memes

12:27Speaker 2

i have not seen this format before

12:30Speaker 1

of i haven't either this is the first

12:32Speaker 2

time i've seen this aquaman yes aquaman aquaman and not aquaman and not aquaman with a rake and so it's so funny the rake is hilarious format before

12:45Speaker 1

no this is the first time i've seen it and i literally okay when i saw this in the group chat when they were going with ideas this one made me laugh out loud so i will say that like this one got me

12:56Speaker 2

it's similar to other meme formats we know mhmm so you're not making my brain think too hard again i'm simple this is memes need to be like simple

13:06Speaker 1

yep

13:09Speaker 2

it touches on the meme coin meta yep and this this idea of like everyone's thinking they're so great and most people are are losers and they don't really have spam after a few hours it's not shaming anyone it's not i don't know it's just it just worked for me like i could yeah scan it and yeah yeah

13:28Speaker 1

it was good it was good it was a good one it's made

13:30Speaker 2

a lot

13:30Speaker 1

so purple tribe we liked it so that one was adrian's pick so you'll be getting

13:36Speaker 2

i'm sorry the bottom is hilarious what's that i'm still laughing

13:41Speaker 1

it's so funny it's just really funny this one by the way creativity all around like for real like

13:51Speaker 2

for real bravo everybody

13:52Speaker 1

like bravo like even if you weren't one of our like picks what like fantastic you all did great this was from the burfriends tribe with gadupi i hope i'm saying that right i don't know if it's right and this was klanger created coin name gowufi dewufi toofy to gadupy with ticker goofy with the image below quote this cast with ever goofy deserves a goofy i can't even say this drop proof of quote cast here in replies and share in 5,000 dgen and that's what we'll talk about tactics in a moment but this was hilarious so this is like the girlfriend of gadoopy and this is jan furlas meme meme coin and art that he was he's been doing and i have to say they were cooking

14:46Speaker 2

yeah

14:46Speaker 1

they were cooking hard if they were managed to get this so well done very well done there was also a gattooppy meme challenge happening also and i was like are you guys entering this too i hope because they might as well double dip so jan furla is is running something as well so it just kinda was good timing

15:09Speaker 2

so did you see jan's video yesterday unrelated to cast out okay so i have a whole

15:16Speaker 1

for tomorrow for june

15:17Speaker 2

we'll talk about it tomorrow is gudupi so i am familiar with jan's art and thanks to someone at farcon i have a t shirt that i sleep in with jan's art on it is gudupi a character

15:32Speaker 1

i believe so i believe that is the character right there and he's a little yeah has issues apparently he's this little character this little face right here but it's also a meme coin and it's doing quite well and he's doing a lot with it in terms of running like a right right now he is around i don't know if it's around or i think it's around running around this about memes on this so yeah so that's sounds good timing good where

16:02Speaker 2

is the dewoofie easter egg outside of the text which is talking about dewoofie dewoofie to gudupie so i don't know is there is there an easter egg in this image

16:14Speaker 1

there should have been related to the

16:16Speaker 2

be and if no jason i did not catch it

16:19Speaker 1

yes there is it's right here

16:21Speaker 2

oh the shirt

16:22Speaker 1

it's right here on the shirt

16:23Speaker 2

okay

16:23Speaker 1

yep it's on the shirt now i see it now i see it yep it's on the shirt alright

16:27Speaker 2

good day guys

16:29Speaker 1

good day good job yep really good job and then we have whoops i think it went back too far then we have our next one was this was peacock so this is really funny so peacock tied their meme to a ponder poll about pineapple on pizza except the replies in the ponder poll don't count just like the replies on the cast so that was a little bit interesting but also they would have been better off saving this in case they make it a little further and that's all i'll say spoiler alert little spoiler alert

17:14Speaker 2

yeah also if you watched cast out season one yeah you could have known that that's okay

17:20Speaker 1

yeah so that was unfortunate but it was it was cute you know pineapple on pizza and the traditional meme but we really needed the cat in here i feel like it's just missing it's missing the cat but you know good good one and it was a good idea

17:40Speaker 2

to do a ponder pull it's just

17:41Speaker 1

that it wasn't the best timing for such a thing is all i'll say so interesting strategy this was from anand poppy and the based evo team based evolution team and this they're bringing in jeff probst who those of you who've never watched survivor

18:00Speaker 2

who i do not understand you i guess you don't realize this was a survivor meme

18:07Speaker 1

this is a survivor meme

18:11Speaker 1

and the idea was like next person to be voted to be the cutest based tribe cheerleader you so he's young i know that's when he was young yeah so cute love the survivor tie in we'll talk about the tribes and sort of what was happening in the background in just a second and then this from the last tribe which was girthi yang my middle name's danger baby yeah girthy mfers check-in your check-in if you're hodl with both hands engagement showdown girthy gang needs your support round one of cast out has begun when you keep all your girth coin on a centralized hot wallet i too like to live dangerously so playing off of where you keep your coins and the girthy gang is like their their whole they're their whole little own community so they they went to try and get them activated with the with the girthy girthy meme so definitely interesting strategy so those were our memes we are foamies is the winner of this particular challenge we'll be sending out your rewards nobody's being eliminated for this round this was just to get you warmed up so let's talk about strategies a lot of interesting strategies so we had some you know really interesting memes in themselves so like the strategy within the meme trying to do i tie into like the farcaster metas do i you know go more broadly you know what's gonna appeal the most and there was both of those things kinda happening very narrow very broad and then you had the approach of how do i incentivize people to like this cast and there was the degen reign so some people got very upset about that i'm like i i said you could tip this to me is tipping so you know it's the same thing a couple people launched a meme coin related to it so there was that too and and seeing if that would help activating your existing communities that was probably the biggest one that i saw a lot of happening and trying to tap into those folks and get them activated to help push that what else did you see that i may have forgotten about

20:41Speaker 2

oh just even the discussion of who was gonna post yes who was gonna post considerate who's gonna get the most right engagement who has the fewest number of followers because it was a ratio based how people were going to recast what time they were going to post do you post as early as possible and get the most amount of time or do you wait until a certain time when you think engagement is higher

21:06Speaker 1

yep there's a lot of discussion around that mhmm yeah there was discussion about by some of the opposing teams of like oh they had their lowest person posted so now we're gonna go make sure everybody follows them

21:20Speaker 2

oh goes and follows right like up start again before the follow the person who posted it so that the engagement metrics change

21:29Speaker 1

yeah so sir jack congratulations you now have a couple 100 more followers

21:35Speaker 2

is that right

21:36Speaker 1

serious jack yes yes it didn't end up mattering honestly because it all kind of worked out a little bit more organically by activating your your existing communities so interesting there's always things i do not think of in the rules always yeah like every time that people come up with and i'm like okay well i didn't think of that didn't even think you would do that so it's interesting but also i cannot stress this enough it's a game it's a game people have fun have fun don't don't over don't overdo here don't get crazy

22:15Speaker 2

on me easy for you to say because you're not a player as a former player

22:20Speaker 1

okay

22:20Speaker 2

i speak to the players

22:23Speaker 1

okay

22:24Speaker 2

it is just a game okay you all are very very competitive like everybody really wants to win it is fun it is easy to get caught up in in in the competition but none of these competitions are meant to create real division between people everyone who applied to join did pass some level of decency test and and it yes just i'm gonna remind you probably every challenge it's just it's just a game have fun a game

23:04Speaker 1

it's just a game we're just having fun don't don't overthink it you can go

23:09Speaker 2

back to season one i stabbed someone in the back apparently and hilarious those feelings get hurt it's and and it's okay to get your feelings hurt for a minute just like you get them to them yeah yeah just go hold on but let it go because it's there not nothing is ever personal and it it's just a game

23:25Speaker 1

so yeah it's been really interesting watching and there's definitely a difference between once again the dowish people and the non dowish people and the dowish what do

23:37Speaker 2

you mean by that for people who aren't dowish

23:39Speaker 1

communities who are existing and have worked with each other before and they just coordinate quicker not necessarily that they execute better or win but that they like i see them move quick like they know how to collab they know how to collaborate quicker like yellow's thing was out like that and it was a high level artistic piece and it was done really fast mhmm i think ben bodie was still asleep by the time the thing was out so it's just like because they know how to coordinate so there's a little bit of that and then and there were some other similar groups who may not be daos but they're dao ish i would say so they they kinda are just able to coordinate more quickly and more just more efficiently so i saw that with foamies and i don't know what their group dynamic is but they were very fast in terms of turning that around and getting it out there so there's some of that that's happening which is always interesting to me and then there's just the interpersonal dynamics are just funny and they're just you know they're just it's just interesting to see things play out but honestly and there's a difference between people who already know each other on a tribe and people who don't know each other in a tribe too and getting to know each other

24:59Speaker 2

so it takes a little

24:59Speaker 1

bit of time

25:00Speaker 2

it's the whole getting

25:01Speaker 1

to know

25:01Speaker 2

each other dynamics like you gotta figure out how you interact with people whose skills like who has which type of skills how you wanna lean on people i took a screenshot of my webcast this morning of my group chat because some of you are try like some of the islands i just woke up and there were like over 80 messages and i was like i ain't reading all that and then some were dead silent which makes me think they're chatting without us yes i would love to be able to read i mean like i i was trying to dip in just so i can kind of observe the dynamics and they're so much fun

25:36Speaker 1

and and i'm going to encourage the tribes who are coordinating outside of their group chat island to please do more in the island so we have more insight and also today what we're launching a little bit later today this afternoon will be around for confessionals so you'll have an opportunity to kind of give us a little bit of insight do it in a funny way and we'll be rewarding that as well so yeah that's been interesting though the ones who we can see what they're doing is just it's more fun it's it's way more fun for us anyway to be able

26:13Speaker 2

to have some insight disclaimer i can't read all your messages there's too much

26:18Speaker 1

it's too much

26:19Speaker 2

and i apologize

26:21Speaker 1

i'm reading every i love it i'm reading everything so it's it's it's it's all good it's all good okay so we have to get to the next challenge so here is a little bit of info this was not the plan for today so the plan for today was a different type of game that was more of a arcade style game that will be happening tomorrow because it's not ready yet there's some customization that's happening and it's just not ready so we have pivoted to this and get ready here it is

27:01Speaker 0

get ready for the next cast out challenge time to bring out that creativity again and create a moshicam mint cast it in the channel of your choice and the moshicam mint with the most unique holders will win immunity in addition the winning tribe will split 2,000,000 based token and each team member of the winning tribe will get a 2,000 degen tip plus adrian and prof will choose their faves for a bonus prize get ready to outwit outplay and outcast with hasta

27:41Speaker 1

so for this one you're creating a motion cam so it can be a photo it can be art it can be a meme it can be something fun and it can be using any frame that you want but if you use a frame of one of our sponsors and i'll show you all these

28:05Speaker 1

oops not that these are our challenge sponsors yellow ponder alpha friends peacock proxyswap face to evo and f c o f so you can use a frame i one of the borders by them a d gen border or a purple border for some bonus points so if you use any of them you will get some a bonus potentially bonus reward from professor from me or adrianne from professor or adrianne i should say i'm losing it too much too much medicine i'm on right now so i'm really excited to see what comes from this one i didn't wanna put these two so close together because they're both very similar types of challenges creative challenges but i needed to pivot because the other one wasn't ready so get your creativity out and the it's gonna be a twelve hour mint so you're going to have to select twelve hour mint you can have it go anytime between now and 11:59pm so it just has to be done or actually 11pm and you set it for a twelve hour mint there's an option when you go in to set up the mint select twelve hour mint and then the total number of unique minters will be what i'm looking for and don't bought it don't be spinning up any farcaster new accounts for this like we are gonna check i want these to be legitimate people it should be based on your creativity so you have a bit of time to do this to work on this it just needs to be launched by 11pm tonight so that it ends by 11am tomorrow just before 11am tomorrow so we can see who won and prep for that i will be dropping all the instructions into your chats yes if we have anything bought it they will be disqualified and this will be an elimination challenge that also has some rewards in it so the winning tribes will will win some based token we have 2,000,000 base token from garrett thank you so much from based evolution and also you'll be winning some dgen as well and plus adrienne and i will choose our favorites that didn't win from the ones that didn't win and you'll get a bonus of some castout tokens as well so and some degen tips so that is the plan for today and i'll be dropping into all your group chat islands with the details and answering any questions for those who are playing and i'm excited to see what you come up with and you know use the flare use the stickers use the fun borders and just make it fun

31:07Speaker 2

or don't if you think that'll get

31:09Speaker 1

you more mints whatever the strategy might be good point very good point yeah and then we're also we're also going to pick somebody who mints the winning moshicam will also win some a win a prize we'll win some degen tips and some cast out token so whoever mints from the winning one so you know choose your strategy on that as well and i also have to go do some a winner for the winning meme as well is gonna win some some degen it's gonna win 5,000 degen so i have to go through and pick that winner today as well so we're trying to give away some stuff to those who are interacting even if you're not one of the players so big thing is if you're holding 10,000 cast out is sort of the the where i'm grabbing the line here to give you guys some bonuses alright i think that's it for our cast out episode two edition i'm still hoping we get bracket game rolled in here maybe before might end up just being the individual play at the end still waiting to hear back from tldr and see where they're at but if not i had another possible idea as well of how we can do that but we gotta wait till we get down to four so we have ways to do this we'll we'll get there eventually so good luck tribes any tips for them adrienne as you as we go forward

32:47Speaker 2

let's see

32:51Speaker 2

no no no tips you're on your own

32:55Speaker 1

no tips they're and yes you may

32:58Speaker 2

they don't even need my advice i saw the way they do memes they're fine

33:02Speaker 1

they're fine they and you can incentivize using dgen you can incentivize in various ways you just can't bot them in that's the only thing i'm going to put a limit on but you can figure out your incentives it could be whatever you want to incentivize there but keep it fun is what i'll say alright and with that we're gonna call it and i'm gonna go you know take about 2,000 more things of medicine and hopefully i'll feel better what's a farcaster thirst okay that i had to laugh at a farcaster thirst trap yeah good luck with that i'll see how that works out christina tread lightly hey melissa i

33:49Speaker 2
