Pizza Guild Scholarship Program

Hash Kings

• Our farmers have been hard at work and the Pizza Guild is extremely excited to announce our milestone of reaching (and now far surpassing!) our 1 millionth farmed BUDS token through the Scholarship program! Thank you to everyone who has been working hard to make sure their harvests and reports have been on time!
• We're also excited to say that we are getting closer to announcing the opening of Wave 3 applications. If you are interested in participating in the Pizza Guild Scholarship Program please make sure that you are active in our community! We are creating an active HIVE-based community and do prioritize those active in the community over others.
• We're also getting really close to our first set of Guild RANK-UPs. Those of you participating know what that means! Make sure you are completing the requirements! Check in with your team leader if you are not sure!
  
  

Bang! Defense

• PIZZA was involved with the presale and was able to snag some premium crates before they sold out. We're excited to start this new venture and will be offering scholarships once they are available!

Discord Bot, Pizza Helper, & SpkCC Monitor Updates

Pizza Helper Engine

• We discovered a bug in our Pizza Helper engine that runs routine tasks for us that was impacting our badge issuance account. This issue was fixed which is now helping alleviate some of our Resource Credit usage when it comes to assigning and removing badges.

Discord Bot

• To support the SpkCC launch along with increased traffic around DLUX we have built two new commands for the Pizzabot (Discord Edition).
• Users can now use !dlux to check all DLUX balances for specific users.
• Users can also now use the !larynx to check SPKCC balances for specific users.
  
  

SpkCC Monitor

• As mentioned in the title updates have been made on the SpkCC Monitor we've built to show additional data (most specifically in regards to DAO and individual vote status). You can check out the monitor tool here.

Here is a preview:

Misc News

• The Guild has created the @pizza.burn account. This account will receive a 10% beneficiary on all project posts going forward. All funds on this account will be spent buying and burning PIZZA.
  
  
• We have renewed Sponsorships with two content creators this month and will likely be extending an invitation to a third content creator! If you know of any high-energy content creators who would like to work with us, please send them our way!
  
  
• Special shoutout to everyone involved with helping us hit 1,003 recently in the community 'number game'. It took a ton of focus, dedication, and heart to hit that 1,000 milestone! You guys are EPIC! Here is to 2,000! 🍻
  
  
• For the CARTEL folks, make sure you check out the new swap system @flauwy has put together! There are some sweet discounts for holders which we know many of you are! This system will help alleviate some of the costs associated with moving your funds around, which hey, we can get behind! Great job @flauwy and team!

Level-Up!

We had some more incredible LEVEL-UPs happen this week! Not only are these people earning more through our staking program but they also have access to all the amazing engagement giveaways we run weekly in the Discord server
