Proposal 3. DAO to refund anyone the exact amount of SPS and vouchers they spent for Riftwatchers packs. Packs can be refunded up to two weeks after the proposal passes as long as packs remain unopened and no air drops have been occurred or been claimed. Packs refunded this way would be burnt and the purchaser ineligible for airdrops. Splinterlands to loan 30k Vouchers to be returned by the DAO at a later date. Players would have a 2 week window to redeem the refund.
Should proposal 3 pass the DAO will need to refund approximately 25,000 packs. The DAO will transfer 2M SPS to a Splinterlands controlled account along with 25000 vouchers. Splinterlands will refund players and then return any remaining SPS and vouchers to the DAO. Packs that are refunded will be burnt and no rewards or airdrops will be sent to players that receive the refund. If additional funds are needed the DAO would send a subsequent 2M SPS and 25000 vouchers and excess tokens would be returned by Splinterlands after the refunds were processed.
Refunds can be processed for 2 weeks after the proposal passes.
Since three passed want to watch how many packs refunded via the dao and splinterlands account kind of curious ;)
Do we have splinterland addresses to monitor :)
Please explain to your CEO that if wants to preach decentralisation and keep his credibility intact, then he should stop deliberately manipulating the votes and results of proposals by selectively voting with multiple accounts on some proposals and not others, to make sure he gets a result he is looking for, or a result that he may be getting canvassed for in private. This is pure manipulation, and the very thing he preaches against constantly. He has spent many years here, preaching against centralised entities manipulating and influencing politics and other real world events, and here we see him doing that very same thing. If he was interested in what his players want or think, he would not need to manipulate the voting and results of proposals. This is bad for everyone, and he is causing major damage to the credibilty of this game and the existense of the DAO itself. This result should be rejected, and it should go to another vote immediately before any action is taken based on this result. This is a kind of fake democracy that is promoted as community consensus. It's not acceptable that this is allowed to go through, and there is no discussion around this. The last thing any DAO wants, is the real threat of this kind of manipulation, and it could have seruous real world consequences if the DAO is audited in future. Everyones interests are at threat here, and there could be serious consequences. Keep the credibility of DAO intact, and reject this result based on this selective manipulation.
That is a strange one, rather not.
yeah
The sps.dao account actually has around 19K vouchers, accumulated over time from the 2 million SPS that it has staked. Thus the DAO will eventually be able to return the vouchers without having to resort to buying any.
Here is follow-up post I made regarding the 4 Riftwatchers Presale SPS Proposals:

For users who are covered in Proposal #2, please review the instructions posted yesterday and remember the deadline to file a support ticket and submit vouchers to get the bonus packs is Wednesday, September 28th, 2022 by 12 PM EST (4 PM UTC).
Due to the wording of Proposal #2, it doesn't technically cover players whose purchases were in the general sale but who also didn't get bonus packs due to the same UI issues that caused the problem in Proposal #2. Nor does it cover a few other edge cases.
#1. One option for these users is to receive a refund as per Proposal #3. As long as the account hasn't opened the bought Riftwatchers packs or claimed any Riftwatchers airdrops, there is a two-week window from when the proposal passed to submit a support ticket requesting a refund via support.splinterlands.com . That deadline is Saturday, October 8th, 2022 by 12 PM EST (4 PM UTC).
#2. After consultation with Yabapmatt, the preliminary alternative is to allow those who purchased boosters on the first day and did not get the bonus boosters they could have because they were impacted by the UI bug, to submit vouchers and get their bonus boosters, which would count for the general sale (and not the presale). This would essentially be an extension of Proposal #2. Part of the reasoning is that since users can get a refund as per Proposal #3, users who missed out on the bonus boosters could technically refund their purchase and then rebuy them (this time with the bonus). Allowing them to just get their bonus boosters saves both the users and the support team time and hassle. In this case, the users who want to get their bonus packs for the general sale have the same deadline as those from the presale. They must submit a support ticket and their vouchers to sl-cs before the deadline of Wednesday, September 28th, 2022 by 12 PM EST (4 PM UTC).
If you strongly feel that this should really be another SPS Proposal Vote, then please voice your opinion. If there is sufficient sentiment, we can try to get an expedited vote. It would essentially be:
Proposal 2A: Anyone that purchased Riftwatchers packs before the UI issue with the voucher field was fixed and who didn't have the chance to get all of their bonus packs from Proposal #2, be allowed to purchase the full amount of bonus packs they are eligible for by submitting the missing vouchers. These bonus packs will be counted for the general sale (and not the presale).
