We're on a clock for this so we can't let discussion dry up if we want it to happen. New channel to allow #general to do its own thing.
So far the idea sounds to be:
Encourage GameStop buying to give away at any charity/shelter/whatever.
Send givers an NFT if they drop their wallets
Give the NFT some functionality by making a gated channel or something in the Superstonk Discord
Any further ideas or thoughts?
Should we:
Suggest users "buy these specific things if you don't know what" and give GameStop online shop links?
Give a list of specific recommended charities/shelters?
Offer a special NFT to the ~10 biggest donators?
Special NFT for any other conditions met?
Any influential community members (or general influencers) we could get on board to push this on Twitter/other social media?
The above are just talking points I've thought up in the moment. Let's get this ready to go by December 1st I think.
Hit up wooch, Joey gallinal, and short destroyer. They can get loud on Twitter.
Since these are individual donations maybe we can focus on refurbs and pre-owned? That might maximize profit for the company. Aisle of misfit toys vibe.
Leave deets about nft functionality quiet for now.
Get a donation flair ready for when people want to post about it.
Maybe we need a specific tag folks can use on X if they are @ing influencers?

If we do focus on refurb/pre own- maybe #IsleOfMisfitGames? Probably too long.
Agree on nft functionality quiet unless we can 100% guarantee it's working.

We've got this old flair we can reactivate

Specific @ flair seems like a great idea. Probably something GME related (not Superstonk don't need drama); this is for the good of others.

Thank you for offering, genuinely. I'd be interested in what others think. I think it might be an issue with some users to offer a monetary incentive to donate to charity.
@everyone This is sort of where we're leaning as a mod team towards our charity drive 2023. Please let us know what you think:
Title: Get Ready for a GameStop Happy Holidays 2023 Drive!
Hey there! It's that time of year again when we gather together for a holiday celebration and a little something extra - a volunteer drive with a twist. You might remember our previous years' efforts with Toys for Tots, but this year, we've got a new game plan that's as exciting as it is charitable.
Here's the scoop:
We wanted to make this year's holiday drive unique to our community, and what's more unique than sharing the GameStop love? Unfortunately, we couldn't arrange physical donations of GameStop goods with Toys for Tots this time around.
Introducing the GameStop Happy Holidays 2023 Drive!
Here's how it works:
Find an organization you support: It could be a local hospital, a school, a daycare, or any nonprofit close to your heart. If there are some you favor, leave them in the comments below for others to check out.
Drop by your local GameStop or gamestop.com: Grab something, anything, from your favorite gaming store. It could be a game, a gaming accessory, or even some swanky GameStop merchandise.
Spread the joy: Post a picture of your receipt and the items you've purchased, but remember, safety first – protect your personal information! Let your fellow Redditors see your fantastic contribution and let us know who/what orgnazation is getting your donation.
Use the flair: #VeryGmerryXmas. This way, we can easily spot your posts and celebrate your generous spirit. People who don't want to play can also filter the content out.
Why are we doing this?
Simple – it's all about giving back and boosting Q4 sales for GameStop while showing the world what our community is capable of when we come together. This initiative is entirely voluntary, but we encourage you to join in the fun and spread some holiday magic if you can.
Let's make this holiday season one to remember, not only for us but for those who benefit from our goodwill. Whether you're a GameStop investor, a gamer, or just excited about making a difference, this drive is for you!
So, what are you waiting for? Share your supported organization, hit up your local GameStop, and let's start spreading those holiday vibes! Together, we can make a Very GameStop Merry Xmas for everyone.
Happy gaming, happy giving, and happy holidays! Power to the Donators!

I'm a little late to the conversation. I love this idea! I've been extremely busy lately and I'm finding it hard to be in the loop. I am wondering though will there be a bot that tracks the GMErry donations/ purchases? Kinda like the "Bought at GameStop" flair?
That's a really super good idea man... But I'm not really sure how to execute it on the timeline that we have

This is where Id turn to RRS in the #advisors channel of our discord... But I imagine he might quite justifiably tell us to pounds in because we're asking so late.(edited)

I DMd Gamestop twitter to ask if they'd be able to donate some GameStop Pro rewards points to maybe the top 5 or 10 posts.. no response yet, was considering DMng their Reddit account but it's probably safe to assume the same social media team controls both
still no response from Gamestop Twitter, will msg Gamestop Reddit.. Tomorrow I'll make an earnings post and the next day we can get this Holiday post out
