Background: The studio was moving from the overnight tests before the Lunar New Year into the holiday break, with the team still focused on its card prototype. Night Watchman, a long-standing community member, had been helping organize feedback. That day, as talk of a holiday market rally spread, the team had to decide whether testing would continue during the break.
Today: On Lunar New Year, chat filled with calls of a crypto “holiday rally,” while BTC hovered near 47,000. Some wanted to ride the moment and talk markets; Night Watchman brought the discussion back to the holiday testing plan. He suggested organizing the feedback already collected so that, once the excitement passed, issues with the battle prototype would not remain scattered through chat.
Impact and next steps: Market excitement and the studio’s testing work carried on side by side, but the noise did not answer how to improve the prototype. Night Watchman chose to keep the feedback work moving. Whether the team could gather for more focused testing during the break, and which issues should come first, still needed a team discussion.
