Hi everyone! I'm excited to share details about this week's RetroSeason events. We're launching RetroSeason while celebrating Optimism Fractal's one-year anniversary and starting to conclude our current seasons.
This Wednesday - Eden Fractal Season Finale (16 UTC)
Join us for a comprehensive analysis of Optimism Fractal's transformative first year while exploring Eden Fractal's unique role in advancing fractal decision-making. We'll examine both communities' impacts through newly created analysis pages, discussing how our governance innovations and tools are shaping the Superchain. While Thursday's events will focus on individual journeys, this session takes a holistic look at our collective achievements and impact. See details in the article.
This Thursday - Optimism Fractal Anniversary Events
- Respect Game (17 UTC): We'll begin with our traditional weekly Respect Game, where participants share their recent contributions to Optimism. This core practice continues as usual, setting the stage for our anniversary celebrations.
- Anniversary RetroPitches & Retrospectives (18 UTC): Following the Respect Game, we'll transition to Optimism Town Hall for special RetroPitches and Retrospectives. Each community member will have 3-5 minutes to share their contributions to Optimism Fractal and how it has benefited them over the past year. We encourage everyone to prepare thoughtful reflections for this milestone celebration. See the topic proposal for details.
These events mark the beginning of RetroSeason, our initiative to enhance impact evaluation in the Collective through RetroPolls and other innovations. Learn more about RetroSeason in the article last week's and the video from last week’s Town Hall.
Season Transitions for Each Event
We’re planning to conclude our current seasons with RetroSeason. Here's what to expect for each event:
- Eden Fractal: Hosting its final finale on October 23rd, then taking a month-long break before returning on November 27th.
- Optimism Fractal: Hosting its final Season 4 event on October 31st, with Season 5 launching after a two-week break on November 21st (as per this new proposal)
- Optimism Town Hall: Ending this season on October 31st and resuming on November 21st.
All RetroSeason events are open to everyone and complement each other in different ways - Eden Fractal providing holistic analysis, while Optimism Town Hall offers space for personal reflections. You’re welcome to RSVP for any events on the event calendar and we appreciate your help in spreading the word about Optimism Fractal RetroSeason by sharing this tweet or cast.
I'm deeply grateful for everyone's contributions this past year and excited to celebrate together while launching this new chapter. Looking forward to seeing you at the events!
