tl:dr: .25 ETH for a Yellow Collective x The Lobby collab to help fund weekly trivia for 3 months in The Lobby (accessible via snapchain and hypersnap clients with mini app access eg FC client AND Quorum) with special experiences and bonus prizes for Yellow members.
WHAT IS THE LOBBY?
The Lobby is a Farcaster mini app and community built by @burr.eth and @plantsnft. Projects bring a token, and they turn it into games real people play every day: poker, live trivia, fantasy sports, brackets and word games. A grant keeps those games going and brings more projects' tokens to verified humans, in whichever app they use. Every player passes a human check, and every payout is public on Base. Here is what they've done so far:

HOW DOES THIS MEET THE YELLOW MISSION AND HOW WILL YELLOW BENEFIT?
The proposal will sponsor a weekly art trivia round where one day will be dedicated solely to trivia about art and artists. This sponsorship will provide prizes for those rounds.
In addition, part of this budget will be set aside for Yellow prizes -- Yellow Collective members who play will qualify for special prizes (details tbd - working out how to recognize members on all platforms since DAO members are likely holding their tokens in external wallets) and the team will be creating experiences to recognize Yellow members when you log in. Yellow branding will be added for trivia games sponsored by Yellow.
The team will be using all funds from this prop for prizes either for the weekly games or for the special Yellow member prizes.

A note from Prof: I am not on the team and all funds go directly to them, but I've been playing trivia and various other games in The Lobby since it launched as Betr with Burr and it has been touchstone of activity for many participants hence why I am sponsoring this prop. I'd love to see more folks playing as it's a fun way for the community to come together, including a chat that exists independently in the mini app. Those quick breaks to play trivia are a fun part of many folks' day and I'd like to see it continue.
This prop will help the team continue to build out experiences and provide prizes for three months while they seek out other sponsors to continue the fun, replacing the large hole left by the wind down of Betr. 60% of the funds will go towards prizes and circulate back into the community.
