# Community Polls

Captain & Company is a fully community-driven MMORPG that directly implements player feedback and game direction via a <mark style="color:orange;">**community polls**</mark> system modeled after similar community-driven MMORPGs, like [Old School Runescape](https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Polls).

## Voting

Polls are held via [Snapshot.xyz](https://snapshot.org/#/capncompany.eth) and will be created when the community, through open dialogue and debate on the [feedback page](https://feedback.kap.gg/), autonomously pushes forward an idea for a vote. Polls will be conducted in-game via the <mark style="color:orange;">**Polling Booth**</mark>. \[1]

Votes must pass a 70% threshold of affirmative votes to be deemed successful and incorporated into the engineering roadmap.

## Voting Chips and Player Classes

There are two voting classes in Captain & Company:

1. Players, which include any user that earns any type of in-game loot or reward.
2. Tokenholders, which include any user that holds nuggies or $CNC.

Each time a poll is hosted, all users are issued <mark style="color:orange;">v</mark><mark style="color:orange;">**oting chips**</mark>. \[2]

1. Every player who gained at least 10k XP in the month preceding a vote receives 100 voting chips, which will be 1/2 of total voting chips.
2. Tokenholders as a class are allocated 1/2 of the total voting chips, and every tokenholder receives voting chips proportional to the value of their owned assets.

This strikes a balance between allowing smaller users to express their opinion while still valuing the important position that tokenholders occupy in the game economy.

## Scope of Allowable Polls

There are certain feature requests that our engineering team will not be able to implement in a short enough period of time to make them worthwhile for the community to pursue.&#x20;

Features out of scope include:

* Land-based combat
* Boarding enemy ships
* Swimming between ships
* Other features at the team's discretion

*\[1] While the Polling Booth is still under construction, votes will be hosted directly on* [*Snapshot*](https://snapshot.org/#/capncompany.eth)*.*\
*\[2] Voting chips are ERC20 tokens held in user’s game wallets and are non-tradeable. They are distributed just before each vote and are revoked just after each vote.*
