Now that we know what the Passes are in, let’s dive into the actual 15-week live stream season.
The Live Stream Shows
We have 15x weeks of live streams ready to go.
They will be Wednesday nights at 8pm EST.
Each show will only last 60-minutes. On the dot. These are episodes.
There are THREE types of live streams, airing on a rotating tap: meaning one show will only come up every three weeks.
Hence each show gets FIVE episodes during the run.
Here is the schedule:
***NOTE: The stream schedule was updated on September 25th to reflect a shorter season.
How each show will work
🧠 Trivia
Every week, we will welcome up to Twelve (12) contestants on the show to play.
The winner from each week will earn a FREE entry to play on the following week’s competition.
Scores will be CUMULATIVE throughout the season, meaning there is a winner each week as well as a CHAMPION as the end of the season on November 15.
Players can join for any episode by redeeming ONE(1) Trivia Media Pass.
💼 Pitch Zone
Every week, we will welcome up to Seven (7) contestants on Pitch Zone
Each contestant will have a Three (3) minute window to pitch their concept, and a Two (2) minute window to be evaluated by the Judges.
There will be no scores; however, each contestant is invited to bring something to giveaway to the audience.
Players can join for any episode by redeeming ONE(1) Pitch Zone Media Pass.
🏝️ Survivor
There are Thirty-Five (35) passes for Survivor.
Every week, half the contestants will be REMOVED from the show via a mix of voting and other challenges (to be revealed live on the shows). The other half will survive and return for the following episode.
To enter in Week 1 of Survivor, contestants must redeem ONE(1) Survivor Media Pass.
To enter in any other Week of Survivor, contestants must redeem a cumulative total of Media Pass (Week 2 = 2 passes, Week 3 = 3 passes).
Contestants that have been removed may return to the game in any week they choose, by redeeming the appropriate number of Media Passes.
🏆 Prizes
Yes, there will be PRIZES each week for each show. Like actual good stuff you want to win (besides bragging rights).
And yes, there may even be TROPHIES awarded to the victors.
Redeeming a Pass
This is a very simple process that will only take about 60-90 seconds of your time.
Once you have the pass in your wallet, go to this typeform 🟢
From here, you’ll enter your contact info and select the pass you wish to redeem.
Once you’ve chosen your pass and its specifications, you will be greeted by the screen below.
You must send the NFT to this address in order to redeem it.
Sending an NFT on Polygon
These passes are on Polygon which will integrate with most NFT marketplaces, including OpenSea.
However, to send the NFT, its possible that you will require a small amount of MATIC to make the transaction (less than $0.01 worth).
Check out this guide on OpenSea for help, and don’t hesitate to get in touch if you need additional help.
Looking for a pass? Join the Discord.
Yes, really.
Until today, The First Mint Discord has been exclusively reserved for DAY ONE holders.
And it still is! But we’ve opened up one special channel for Outsiders to join and chat with DAY ONEs about their Media Pass.
So come on in, get verified, and chat up our DAY ONEs to try and score one of their sweet sweet Media Passes.
Or just grab one on OpenSea.
🔥Let the Games begin!
Season 1 has been months in the making, and we’re excited to bring together our DAY ONEs and our broader community for 15-weeks of chaos.
This is a new experiment in web3 media and we’re happy you’re joining us for the ride. Stay tuned for updates!
