Thanks. I can assure you that production quality on these daily meetings will definitely increase with time. Also,
Of course we expect though you be at least have some background in whatever it is you want to join the discussion on
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TFTCNnX65AAThe first of our jewels hangouts where Roy and I discuss the goals of rebirth, game design and the limitations of conquer and what's unique and enjoyable about it.
This episode focuses on the limitations of the combat and networking systems of conquer. The reason we are discussing it so heavily is that is what our networking prototype with heroes will focus on.
Just thinking out loud after listening to your Jewels Talk on youtube: While I really appreciate you guys being such hardcore gamer geeks, you guys really lost me 1/3 way into the talk. I am sure many of your fellow gamers would really appreciate what was discussed but you need to understand that majority of your crypto investors are not really going to understand nor interested in such nitty gritty technical details. Nevertheless, I still listened through the entire interview, and learnt a thing or two abt the game/gaming. It was helpful.
I am sure many here would agree that you guys have no lack of skills, talent, substance or vision. But what this project needs is a bit more
style. In other words, you need to 'dress up' your project with a bit more flair, and try to communicate to your non-gamer-investors in very simple and easy to understand ways. Treat us like idiots. Tell us things we like to hear like why we should believe in you guys even though we don't even play games even on our mobile phones. I know you may think it's shallow, but this scenario is a case that is not unique in the wider society. Scientists and academics too need to step down from their ivory tower every once in a while and raise support, whether financially or simply to help raise awareness abt their research from among the public, who may at first have absolutely no clue (nor interest) abt what these scientists' or academics' researches are about. And most times, they will need to put on a tie and business suit to do that effectively. It's not selling out, it is basically education, and a matter of being professional. Now that you guys have raised a whole bunch of money from among the crypto community, I think you need to proceed with marketing efforts on two fronts
simultaneously:
A. Continue what you are doing: explain, clarify, reach out and raise awareness among existing and potential gamers, stay geeky and technical - Knock Yourself Out!
B. Hire a company or someone experienced with marketing crypto to conduct a proper marketing/branding campaign. Redo your website professionally, pack it with content + make it super informative and looking sleek, clean and hip. Hire artists to make game related original art throughout the site. Redesign a new logo. Write a comprehensive whitepaper specifically
Re:Jewels as a crypto-currency. Include whatever you guys have done so far + all the vision and dreams you have about the coin + what you are planning to do. Include a video to explain the who-when-why-what-how of Jewels, as distinct from other cryptocurrencies. Current info available about this coin is rather messy I find. With a comprehensive marketing package done like this, journalists or writers who wish to report on Jewels as a crypto-currency will find it much easier to gather information for their writeups in articles and websites as well. You may think these things are "simply" cosmetics, but you will be surprised how positively the the wider public will respond to them. Crypto peeps especially are used to these things. Truth is thousands of investors are actively seeking for projects to put their
BTCBTCBTC into everyday. These marketing efforts as I have mentioned are designed to raise the market capital of $JWL as a crypto currency, making investors want to head to Bittrex (and hopefully soon Poloniex) to buy some $JWL after visiting your website, reading your white paper or watching the video. We not only need to know how serious you guys are about gaming, we also need you to pitch your projects and vision to us so that we + many more others, would want to continue to support you. I will say it again: Marketing and branding is not selling out, it is basically educating the public as effectively as possible, and a matter of being professional.
I have been talking with Roy on Slack and know you guys already have many of what I mentioned in point B in the works already. I just wish to put it out there for future reference and for others to read as well. I want to see if the rest of the Jewels community agree with me. I have, and still believe in this team and your projects, and am very keen to see the progress this coin makes in the next few months. Onwards and forward!

So probably a 1/3 of the way through we were talking about gaming yes, but probably even gamers wouldn't understand what the focus of that video was about. Mainly, last weeks video was a very dev/programming oriented talk and this weeks video will be a follow up but we won't have to go into as much technical (programming) detail as we did last week. It should be much easier to follow.
I want to also take a moment to apologize for the production quality. As I stated before, it will be improved and we're also looking at doing it as a Google hangout-style sort of thing where webcams are shown, or something a long that line.
Your feed back on how to communicate and pitch better is greatly appreciated and I'll be taking that into consideration anytime I give a talk in the future. I think the comparison to Scientists is sort of around the right ball park as with the last video you probably didn't understand too much unless you were a Programmer (and even then you'd need to know about the networking protocol of modern day games).
Your points raised in B... to comment on them now would make this post way too long so I'm going to save that and tackle it tomorrow.
Once again though, thanks for your support and kind words. We always appreciate any advice and feedback our community has to offer us.
