The Unlimited Taco Stand
Archives / taco-dos-mayo
A channel focusing specifically on the creation and planning of the rewards, art, potential guest scouting, and 'ganda of the upcoming Taco Dos Mayo, before final preparations are moved to our external server. THIS IS NOT FOR THE STREAM. This is for the reward, which we are theorizing to be a May to May calendar.

Last year, the Tacos raised over $10,000 in funds for the Southern California Immigration Project, or SCIP: a public, non-profit orginization dedicated to delivering services to survivors of human rights violations by providing pro bono and low bono legal services to immigrants. We called this event Taco de Mayo in honor of Cinco de Mayo, a holiday that emphasizes the importance of family and friends in Mexican-American communities all across southern California. It is a frequently misrepresented holiday that we wanted to properly respect by giving back to the local community. Due to the resounding success and genuine joy brought by this event, we have decided to make this an annual charity, for as long as the blaseball community will have us. So, without further ado… Hello and welcome to the 2nd Taco de Mayo Event! Thusly dubbed Taco dos Mayo because we are very creative. - - - - - - - - - - Speaking of creative...The purpose of this here channel is specifically for the creation and planning of this years donation gift: A May-to-May calendar! This will be digital of course and, just like last year, it will be allocated to a google drive for people to access and print at home. Which means we need: -Artists! If you are an artist and are interested in partaking in the creation of art for this piece, please react to this message with a 🎨 -Production! If you are interested in designing, writing, and editing this gift, please react to this message with a 🖊️ There will be separate ping-able roles assigned to allow those involved to communicate with each other. - - - - - - - - - - The deadline for this calendar in its entirety is: MAY 1ST (at the very latest) We will establish more specific deadlines once we have a team together. The actual event days are still TBD as that will sorted with those involved in the stream. - - - - - - - - - - As always, if you have any questions feel free to ping or DM myself and/or LOLO!

hello @artist dos mayo and @production dos mayo! It is me, hen, your overlord, here to get some planning generated so that we prevent any last-minute stress. First and foremost! The calendar! since the intention is for it to be printable, we will be doing single page calendars such as the ones attached to this message. each month will include at least one piece of art, maybe some text, maybe some cute little graphics along the edges. i will be making a list of the months, and assigning artists to each. since we don’t have a total of ten artists, and since some pages might have more than one art piece, chances are some of us will end up with the two or two months to do, or partnering with another artist. I will start this delegation after we’ve come up with a general idea about what we want each month to look like. to do list so far, somewhat in order: an overall theme and template (this will mostly be done by the production team) some factual text about potential holidays (including cinco de mayo, of course) monthly art cover art and testers! (this will be much later when we are ready for print testing)

@artist dos mayo @production dos mayo OK planning people get ready for some calendar bizness… Calendar Non-Negotiables — We’re going with a Gregorian calendar (May 2022 - April 2023). — Weeks will start with Sunday and end with Saturday. — We are limited to 8.5 x 11 inch paper with printer-friendly margins. — Each month will have the same layout. No mixing and matching! — We will also have a front and back cover, an introduction page, and a credit page. Now, let’s decide what our layout will look like. bongers I’ve provided three options in both visuals and written descriptions below. Look over Options A, B, and C, then vote for your preferred option via react. Note: the visuals are for illustrative purposes only. Please no “designing” right now.
🇦 5

17:40
Option A “Da Full-Page Spread” Each month gets two (2) pages: one (1) full page for art and one (1) full page for the date boxes. Holidays/Awareness Days/Moons/Etc are called out in the date box itself but there is still room to write down appointments and what not. Pages can be horizontal or vertical. Most like your typical wall calendar. Pros: More room for art. Calendar is most-usable. Cons: Requires the most paper and ink. (edited)
17:40
Option B “Go Fifty-Fifty” Each month gets one (1) page to split evenly between art and the date boxes. Pages can be horizontal or vertical. Pros: More paper and ink efficient than Option A. Art pieces are about half-a-page. Cons: Date boxes are likely too small to accommodate holidays and personal notes. (edited)
17:40
Option C “It’s for the Thirds” Each month gets one (1) page to split between art and the date boxes with the dates taking up the majority (approx 2/3) of the space. Pages can be horizontal or vertical. Pros: More space for date boxes than Option B but less than Option A. About as ink and paper efficient as Option B. Cons: Art pieces are the smallest. (edited)

Avatar
clucked 9000 15-Feb-22 05:57 PM
So we will have at least one little blurb, likely a hundred or so words with a link for more info if we feel like more info would be cool, for each month. The way I have it planned currently is that the art and the blurb will be tied to each other. So that's at least two people working together on each month. If there's a month where we feel like a blurb isn't necessary, like July (can't recall and significant holidays in July) then it might be fully art
17:58
If we tie the art and the info together it won't feel like two separate things, and instead like one whole piece (edited)
Avatar
georgia 🌱 15-Feb-22 06:01 PM

for those who do not know Jackie Robinson is the baseball player who broke the colour barrier. Baseball has recognised this in 2 very nice ways 1) No player wears his number (42), it is retired by all 30 teams. 2) April 15th (or the nearest game to it) players can wear 42. This is the anniversairy of him being signed to the Brooklyn Dodgers. It was something which Black players in the league had petitioned for and has been a nice tradition

so, like, this is a HUUUUGE argument every dang year back home with divali (diwali is the more common spelling but no)
16:24
because of how the hindu calender has some slight dependencies on the moon
16:24
and furthermore, when trinidad and guyana celebrate is a different day BUT THE SAME TIME as india
16:24
so divali for me, is a day before diwali in india on the calender

basically, we include both trans days and just leave dia de los muertos out, or we can do just the day of visibility which would leave the remembrance day out, or we can do all three in a way that might be inappropriate depending on how the trans community views remembrance day and how it compares to how hispanic culture views deaht

clucked 9000 16-Feb-22 05:56 PM
my main reasoning for choosing this was not because of anything to do with blaseball, but to do with informing people. I personally feel like having just one day dedicated to the indigenous populations of the north American continent is insulting, and that this entire week is a better representation of how a celebration of indigenous culture should be treated. ran by indigenous people, supported by a very guilty government that has in many ways not ever done enough, but is at least somewhat aware of that (compared to the us at least). i personally wanted to portray that.

LOLO the Spooky Owl 22-Feb-22 11:48 AM
Me too! Sleepy adults do weird things. I was thinking 50-75 words for the blurb. Thoughts? 50 looks like this:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. In eget sapien nisi. Praesent euismod augue a elementum sollicitudin. Nunc egestas dictum efficitur. Vivamus a erat massa. Sed enim nunc, tempus ac lectus sed, pellentesque maximus ante. Nunc pretium nec neque a sollicitudin. Sed egestas ipsum mattis velit mollis, et pulvinar.
75 looks like this:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Pellentesque sed ante eu risus porttitor semper. Etiam a consectetur nisi. Nunc viverra diam quis luctus aliquet. Curabitur libero diam, hendrerit ut metus eget, tempus vestibulum sem. Aenean cursus nulla non purus molestie, in iaculis lacus molestie. Maecenas quis ex eget turpis volutpat aliquam. Curabitur feugiat justo justo, id sollicitudin mi cursus eu. Donec et tellus quis lorem tempor placerat. Vivamus magna risus, tempus nec aliquet ac.

St. Farts day began as catholic festival day for St. Farts, who was martyred in the 12th century for passing gas in front of King George of Britain. He expressed the view that the human body was one of God's greatest works, and it's natural functions should be revered instead of hidden. Beginning in the Enlightenment, it has been celebrated as a secularized celebration of human health. (edited)

ARTWORK INSTRUCTIONS - 8in wide x 4.25in tall - 300 dpi - Draw in RGB but check CMYK* - Accommodate the text box depending on your assigned month LOLO NOTES - I will be laying the text box OVER your artwork, so anything behind the 2.5x2.25 box will not be visible. Don't be afraid to draw in and around this space, though... This calendar will look better the more creative you get! - It's OK to draw into the .25in border (red) to ensure a full bleed, but make sure it's nothing crucial as it may get cropped. - Send me your drafts and I can show you a mock up of your artwork in your month's layout. No alarms and no surprises! *Print version of calendar will be in CMYK. I can help you check if you cannot convert on your own.

Hello @production dos mayo and @artist dos mayo! (wow the visibility on that one is poor) Dates have been chosen. Artwork instructions have been made. It is time to begin the next part of our plan! We need volunteers! For both art and writing blurbs for these holidays! Guidelines: * Please join in on days you are familiar with first, before volunteering for holidays you are not familiar with. If you see someone has volunteered for a holiday that you are familiar with, please reach out so we can see if you can consult. * You do not necessarily need be familiar with them to write or draw about them, but if you are not, then please research these holidays, maybe find some people who celebrates them and talk to them. * You can do both writing and art, and you can volunteer for multiple months. But please be aware of your own ability to complete that amount of work. * The holidays getting blurbs and art are in bold on the spreadsheet. Please volunteer by writing in either the 'Artist' or 'Writer' cell below that specific month, with your Discord tag so that we can ping you. * Pinned are the ratios of the space you have to fill. If you any questions about size, please speak to Lolo. * For writers, that space will fill around 50-75 words. We can include hyperlinks if you feel like those aren't enough words to express the holiday, but those hyperlinks should go to a website with more information, not a google doc. Not that I think anyone here would do that, but just fyi. Here is the spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wENFt57oxTvo1mnC-mP0l5HY_ztStOJ9zzmKwC2BPmE/edit?usp=sharing (if i've already assigned you its based off previous conversations and I can remove you if you want just let me know) Taco Baco Calendar Team!

Did someone say role colours If you need assistance finding well-visible role colours I can provide that assistance

Put this into an image editor and just eyedropper select whichever color you like and it'll be good to go in both themes

hello @production dos mayo and @artist dos mayo I am calling once again for people to volunteer for writing and/or drawing for the calendar! If you have not volunteered yet and want to, please do. I think I can safely assume that it will be to a holiday you are unfamiliar with, but no better time to learn than now! If you are uncertain, we are willing to help you or track someone down who can. Thank you again for all your help with this! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wENFt57oxTvo1mnC-mP0l5HY_ztStOJ9zzmKwC2BPmE/edit?usp=sharing

ARTWORK INSTRUCTIONS - 8in wide x 4.25in tall - 300 dpi - Draw in RGB but check CMYK* - Accommodate the text box depending on your assigned month LOLO NOTES - I will be laying the text box OVER your artwork, so anything behind the 2.5x2.25 box will not be visible. Don't be afraid to draw in and around this space, though... This calendar will look better the more creative you get! - It's OK to draw into the .25in border (red) to ensure a full bleed, but make sure it's nothing crucial as it may get cropped. - Send me your drafts and I can show you a mock up of your artwork in your month's layout. No alarms and no surprises! *Print version of calendar will be in CMYK. I can help you check if you cannot convert on your own.
okay so do I just pick a month that isn't claimed and draw whatever I want but fit it in the little box from this post? And I restrict my colors to cmyk colors and all colors from this image? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/933953503460724756/946421459885113384/mmcolour-5.jpg Am I missing anything? can I look at last years calendar for examples?

Let's start here. Ink or paint would be lovely! As long as your work can be digitized in high-res, no restrictions on the medium you choose. You're welcome to send me your piece and I can work with you to get the cropping to your liking.

I feel good about doing the cropping, its just doing actual art in pixels is still a big hindrance for me, I got a cheap drawing tablet and have been playing with it, but the lines are just not quality yet.

LOLO the Spooky Owl 27-Feb-22 06:55 PM
Last year, we did a recipe book so unfortunately I don't have an example to share with you. Don't worry about restricting your colors. I just want artists to be aware that if you draw in RGB (not an issue for doing a physical piece), we'll need to convert to CMYK for a printer-friendly version. There are small differences (ex: CMYK can be duller) and I didn't want anyone feeling caught off-guard. Yep, just pick a month that isn't claimed! I believe the intent is to draw something blasebally that supports the season/chosen holiday getting a write-up. @clucked 9000 is this one right?

For blurbs: I want them to be entirely about the holiday. They're informational pieces. The art I leave up to the artists, trusting them to do their research. When I sit down and write this out I'll have a due date for sketches/preliminary art so that we can do a vibe check on the pieces and make sure we're not doing anything disrespectful

When I first proposed taco de mayo. It was a maincord only event
15:53
It became more than that. And it was a huge success
15:54
It will be a success again this time. But it is likely to have a few key folks stretched thin or switching off from one aspect of this event at an earlier time than need be without a stream. However, this is a minority opinion. I believe people want to do "an even bigger stream"

Diwali is the Hindu Festival of Lights. It is the biggest and brightest of the Hindu festivals. Celebrated by over a billion people across faiths, it is a time to celebrate the triumph of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance and good over evil. During Diwali, people decorate their homes with diyas and rangoli. Folks dress up in colourful sarees and kurtas and get intricate henna tattoos. Food is also important with Samosas, Barfi and Chakli being some of the treats to enjoy. Shubh Diwali! Eid al-Fitr is the one of the most important celebrations in the Muslim calender. Eid takes place at the end of Ramadan, which is a month of prayer and fasting. Throughout Ramadan, Muslims have been fasting from sunrise to sundown to devote themselves to their faith. Near the end of Ramadan, charitable acts are encouraged to help those less fortunate celebrate the occasion. Community is vital, no one is left out. On Eid, friends and family visit each other and share food and thanks. Eid Mubarak!

MAINCORD WRITEUP Things I need answered by the end of the week: 1) Date of the event. Currently, I believe weekend of May 7/8 2) Intended charity. Is this still SCIP? If not, it should be within the region and migrant struggle related. 3) Channels required. I am assuming 2. Announcements and Party 4) Designated maincord hype train drivers. Reach to this post with 🛎️ if you hope to be one of these folks 5) Icon for the blaseball maincord calender no relation to our reward calender. My suggestion tacoheart or partytaco (edited)

International Migrants Day is an UN-designated holiday about the importance of a humanitarian approach to global migration. On this day in 1990, the General Assembly adopted the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families. It expressed the importance of treating migrants with the freedom and dignity that they deserve. The future is brighter in a world where we welcome each other with open arms.

I had my first big exam of college at night. It was a three hour exam beginning at 6pm. I was soooo stressed and the exam was rough. I turned in my scantron and didn't feel very confident and headed outside. Unbeknownst to me, it was Diwali. I exited the 700+ person auditorium to find that people had lit the quad with hundreds of lamps. It was so incredibly beautiful that all the anxiety I felt over the exam instantly melted. I didn't know what Diwali was (please be nice. this was 2005) and was just in awe.

LOLO the Spooky Owl 02-Mar-22 09:51 AM
so something i've been thinking about is this: Are our 2021 colors/type faces/style the Taco de Mayo brand? Do we reinvent the look/feel every year, or do we go with this established formula?

I like the colour scheme and wouldnt mind keeping it. It makes for a nice combo of seeing the recipe book and calender together for those who print them. However... I wouldnt mind new font selection

Web accessibility doesn't only extend to color blind users, but dyslexic users too. Dyslexia is a learning disability that impairs a person's fluency or accuracy in being able to read, write, and spell [10]. As designers, we can help dyslexic users read text better by avoiding the bad design practices that hurt them. Seeing things […]

i've read both that it is and is not easier to read 🤷
14:00
the letters aren't symmetrical or mirror images of each other, which helps with readability
14:02
Suggested qualities for copy fonts:
Sans-serif fonts are preferred Clear letter spacing (letters should be distinct) Line spacing should be at least 1.5 Font size should be at least 12-14pts All caps and underlining reduce readability Letter forms such as “p” and “q” should be distinct, and not mirror images of each other.

If you are unfamiliar with the holiday, that is TOTALLY FINE, myself and georgia will gladly provide references and whatever you would like to complete a piece. If you have already committed to an art piece for a month, I am banning you from volunteering for May or July unless your piece is already finished
Hey are y'all still looking for volunteers? my good pal gob bopped me about this and I'd be happy to do either of these 🙂

You can do either one if you're up for it, just let me know. As of right now I am checking in next week for sketches, due date for complete work is March 31st, absolutely final due date April 10th. There is a bunch of recourses in the pins, such as art scale, the Google folder for completed works, ect. Whichever holiday you choose, you can draw based off the blurb written, or based off your own understanding of the holiday, just make sure it's appropriate! As always, if you have questions, feel free to ping any of us and bug us about it.

It’s the blue mountains in Australia! They look blue from a distance I think because of a chemical eucalyptus has? At least that’s what I was told when I was 12…. The folks are aboriginal activists, and the snake is the ‘rainbow serpent’ which is a big part of aboriginal belief systems

LOLO the Spooky Owl 14-Mar-22 04:52 PM
another option is eliminating a headline for the holiday box and bolding the words when they first appear in the blurb instead.
Rosh Hashanah is a Jewish holiday signifying the start of the New Year, which takes place on the anniversary of the creation of Adam and Eve. It is one of the two Jewish High Holy Days, along with Yom Kippur. Major hallmarks of the Rosh Hashanah include blowing a shofar, a hollowed ram’s horn; eating certain foods, such as apples dipped in honey; and adding additional prayers and specific passages from the Tanakh, including the story of Isaac, to services.

It’s the blue mountains in Australia! They look blue from a distance I think because of a chemical eucalyptus has? At least that’s what I was told when I was 12…. The folks are aboriginal activists, and the snake is the ‘rainbow serpent’ which is a big part of aboriginal belief systems
wow that is so cool, I'm gonna have to learn more about all of that. It sounds like a really beautiful culture

this is not the channel for full discussion, but there’s actually hundreds of different nations of aboriginal australians! although there are overlaps and similarities between many of them. They’re some of the oldest surviving cultures in the world

okay i'm all settled in so i'll share what i've got so far. first is december (international migrants day) -- i decided to go with a scene where some migrants have befriended one another and are sharing food in an airport, with the intention of depicting solidarity and community over the challenges of migration across culture and ethnicity. (there's also a bonus NaN walking by) my concern with my sketch, though, is that i feel like it comes across as kinda tokenism-y when that's not the direction that i wanted to take it. i'm wondering if i should reassess my approach? i think i've pretty much talked myself into doing so, but some feedback would be appreciated!

like making the darkest part of the sky more of a navy blue instead of pure black, in order to not have people use too much black ink/toner on it

You don't have to adjust. Lolo is going to put a box there. You can totally have a full version just know that stuff will be occluded and you get to choose whether you put effort in that space or just phone it in

LOLO the Spooky Owl
ARTWORK INSTRUCTIONS - 8in wide x 4.25in tall - 300 dpi - Draw in RGB but check CMYK* - Accommodate the text box depending on your assigned month LOLO NOTES - I will be laying the text box OVER your artwork, so anything behind the 2.5x2.25 box will not be visible. Don't be afraid to draw in and around this space, though... This calendar will look better the more creative you get! - It's OK to draw into the .25in border (red) to ensure a full bleed, but make sure it's nothing crucial as it may get cropped. - Send me your drafts and I can show you a mock up of your artwork in your month's layout. No alarms and no surprises! *Print version of calendar will be in CMYK. I can help you check if you cannot convert on your own.

OK. Tacoganda plan 1) the team specific invites. These can happen during the great freeze 2) a billboard flood. Billboard is hella quiet so we don't need super coordination. But I want to get a convo onto the billboard. Will start working on a script and images this weekend but my plan is to have Yummy leading it in a group chat like last year's discord one. But I do not have the effort in me to include almost 50 lore eligible tacos. So it will be simpler

frog but gay (he/they) 💚💜🌮 22-Mar-22 06:45 PM
the context is: the puzzle piece, the colour blue, and "lighting it up blue" are all visuals promoted by autism $peaks during april. someone has added a comma to make it into a command to blue from blues clues to 'light it up' i.e burn down the blue puzzle piece

nah, just the arrangement of an individual sheet for credits + thinking about collaborative calendars ive seen before, usually the covers other side is credits and theres no page explicitly set aside, and i wanted to double check to make sure i was mapping it out in my brain properly

asked for confirmation about doing this again, using their logo, and what is the most suitable platform for them. I know that stream team might prefer a tiltify, but whatever platform is best for the charity is the platform we should use

I also asked if someone from their organisation is willing to do a pre-recorded interview about the work SCIP does. I got questions off of Krow who had done a similar interview with Balsa Mindanao/YACAP

In a very similar manner to what Krow did for Lunar New Year with the tigers Tacos are looking for folk to talk to for some pre-recorded stuff for our Taco dos Mayo stream THERE ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS WHICH I HOPE TO TALK ABOUT 1) If you celebrate, what does Cinco de Mayo mean to you etc 2) If you are an immigrant (1st/2nd/3rd gen) regardless of background, and current country (ie this isnt limited to Mexicans in USA) I would like to have a chat about existing (this is vague, sorry, ill have more structure later) Further details to come later when I am not making this up as I go along you can pester me or Bluey or Hazel on this (we equally have no information)

THIS IS THE FIRST IN A SERIES OF POSTS, PLEASE READ THEM ALL The maincord channel will be open on 07-May-22 02:00 PM In order to access it by that time please ensure you have picked up the events role on maincord (now acquirable from #choose-your-roles) This channel is crucial for getting cross team support. One of the main draws of last year was how much interaction we had from fans from other teams, some of whom are now fans of this team (hi Laz). This is a community event, and while the stream will be taco centric, this is a BLASEBALL EVENT. So, if you have the energy for it over the weekend, please engage with the community. As such, I am recommending, but not mandating that taco dos mayo reactions on the day will be either in the twitch chat or the maincord channels. This channel will remain open, but should be for logistics and communicating with organisers etc. (edited)
14:15
Advertising Speaking of community, tomorrow is ACTUAL CINCO DE MAYO, which is a great time to tell your friends about our celebration this weekend. There have been a batch of posts in #tacoganda now. Feel free to share those with friends in other communities, blaseball or not even. Please also ensure that these links also get shared Go-Fund-Me: https://www.gofundme.com/f/taco-dos-mayo Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/infinitecitiesblaseball SCIP: https://www.socalimmigrationproject.org/ This sharing should be personable and not just a drop the post and keep it moving. So if you are sharing stuff in a space, make sure it is a space you have no issues interacting in and answering questions or even redirecting questions to someone else to answer. My DMs are open and I am willing to field questions from anywhere on this event, and I am also somehow in every team sidecord, ping me if you want support. Hen and Lolo are also very aware of everything going on and are likely to be able to field questions as well. If you have shared tacoganda with a team please leave a message in this channel saying Downward Dogs contacted on their sidecord or Oxford Paws contacted in their maincord channels Things will still go out through the standard rep channels, but, I personally believe that while that form of communication is efficient, the personal approach is better. (edited)
14:17
Expectations There is a chance that this is going to be a lot of action, or very little. Who knows, we are in a new and exciting and always interesting time in blaseball. PLEASE ENSURE YOU STEP AWAY FROM THINGS WHEN STUFF FEELS OVERWHELMING. This project as always is set up in a way that there is always a backup person for you and your personal well being is priority. Please do not feel compelled to donate beyond your means. We appreciate every bit of help in this project and if that help is a share of the event we are perpetually grateful. Do not put yourself in a dire situation for the sake of number go up.

Hi! I posted this in the stream server, but I know a few of you who contributed to this event are not in there. https://forms.gle/QH3CdL9XE99Tyb6s5 As always, the best thing to do after a successful event is to reflect (unsuccessful events also need reflection, but we didnt have one of those tacowboy ) Please fill this out

Here are a few things we have learnt from doing our own events and possibly a checklist for you to prepare for yours. Before the event: Identify the Charity: Use services like Gofundme or tiltify who have registered charities so the money goes directly to them or get in touch with a local char...

⏸️ multiple posts incoming Here are the responses from the feedback form (edited)

Calender Planning 4.75/5 Planning for the calendar starting well and early is the best way to go about it! I think everyone had the right amount of time to plan and finish their portions without feeling too rushed while also having a good deadline to have to stick to he research was really well done, and I absolutely adore the direction chosen in terms of multicultural representation, it made for great synergy with the charity we were raising money for. The process of the creation of the calendar felt fair and smooth, probably the least stressful I did not participate in the planning / execution of the calendar. I am personally glad I did not have to. Opportunities for volunteering were clearly offered, and I had several chances to join if I so wanted. there was a lot of time so that the calendar was done mostly on schedule and people did not seem to be panicking. RIV to the spanish language one but cutting scope to make the deliverable is important. TWAS GOOD -The holiday/event list and blurbs were quickly assembled. That process went very smoothly. -Instructions were clearly outlined for writers and artists. WHAT COULD BE BETTER -Deadlines were allowed to slip a bit, which snowballed a bit in April. We had half the time to edit the draft versions than planned. -We wanted to do a Spanish-language version but ran out of time. -A few people volunteered beyond their means. Limiting assignments could have resulted in fewer delays.
16:06
Calendar Art 4.5/5 Same as before, I think everyone had enough time to work without feeling rushed but I'm not an artist so I can't speak too much on it Some folk took up too much which required many followups, which led to an extra burden on organisers. The early start date was excellent and much needed, but even with this formulating in January, there was still a need for a couple emergency art pieces in the final month. The quality of the art however? INCREDIBLE Perhaps more discussion about the art choices before they are included in the calendar, to see if there are any known characters with characteristics regarding each month for if they should or should not be included, based on common headcanon. i understand the april deadline was last minute and unavoidable, but we tried to give artists more time this year and ultimately failed at that art was fantastic and cohesive overall yet differentiated on every page TWAS GOOD -Artists took great care to make sure the pieces were just right for some potentially heavy themes. -Most artists met deadlines and followed production instructions. WHAT COULD BE BETTER -We could have sourced art from outside the Taco Stand. Would be nice to have no repeat artists for future events. -Artists who are delayed need to be more proactive about communicating to the planning team.

Streams 3.66/5 The planning definitely should not have mostly fallen on a single person. We should figure out how to split up planning duties better in the future. The lead up to this was incredibly stressful. It was getting harder and harder to fill hours. There originally was a desire for 24hours, and when the time came to fill those 24 hours, those who wanted that were AWOL. The stream itself felt smooth and I was quite pleased with the right level of chaos-professionalism. Last year devolved at a rate which I do not want to experience again, and having the breaks and shifts had done wonders for health and attentiveness of the stream. I appreciated the openness of scheduling slots for the events and being asked to be a part of the schedule. The group events were very much enjoyed as well. Part of it was personally not having really enough bandwidth to tap in that much, but a big portion of my lack of engagement with it was that, whereas last year a lot of the process felt like a big exciting improv exercise, this felt much more constricted and, idk, not fun to plan. I think if we are to do more events like this that we net to make sure we have the actual capacity and bandwidth to have an equitable workload for organizers, as opposed to committing to early and then it being a stressful endeavor. I think doing things to reduce stress will make the whole process more fun. The stream itself was fun when I was watching/participating in it. It was messy and a lot of the planning got hard-carried by Hen, but she did an incredible job. professionally executed for the parts i saw TWAS GOOD -Pre-recorded interviews were an excellent addition and well-executed. Was very nice to provide the hosts with built-in breaks while also providing the stream with great content. -Schedule was balanced content-wise and organized behind the scenes in a very clear way. -Art streams are always delightful and we're pros at them by now. -We featured some new voices -- more of that! WHAT COULD BE BETTER -Too much of the work fell to one person to complete and it was a scramble to the finish line. Day-of changes in availability of guests/hosts (some avoidable, some not) resulted in last-minute schedule changes and confusion for some participants. -The stream could have flowed better between segments. -Putting the OBS together was last minute and should have began earlier. Another example of a task that fell to one person despite all the risk involved. -There was confusion about who was volunteering for what.

GoFundMe/SCIP 5/5 lol The only real problems were with GoFundMe, which we can't help This might be one of the things we werent actually busproof on and didnt realise. It was fine though Can’t think of anything about the gofundme that would need to be different next year. No issues, having videos from them was awesome maybe more stretch goals needed to be planned as we broke the first ones quick This went super smoothly. GFM has its issues, but it DOES work.
16:11
Maincord Event 4/5 We did get screwed over by maincord closing but we did our best to advertise it anyways REP CHAOS IN THE ANNOUNCE CHANNEL WAS A DELIGHT. I am super frustrated with the maincord policy change of having events be opt in and us being the test dummy for that. But that is out of our control. We had roughly 5% of the "online" blaseball community have eyes on those channels. There was decent synergy between what was happening on stream and what was happening in the channels. While I understand that the event was a Blaseball event, rather than solely a tacos one, the tacos channels being encouraged to watch along and chat on the sidecord for it could cause more overall participation. to be quite honest we almost need a tdm twitter I liked the handshake channel. In this case, the maincord event was an accessory to the livestream. I think if you were going to run a maincord only event you'd need to prep a ton of stuff in advance and really make it a focus. it seemed kinda sleepy at times but the server just waking up from a monthlong siesta will do that. I think the events role also might contribute TWAS GOOD -Maincord convo and Twitch stream was steady despite less participation than last year. The Tacos in the chats did an amazing job keeping the vibes up. -Art sharing (yeah, even those Vitos) kept things going in the chats. WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER -Always could have done more advertising. There is never enough advertising. -Twitter was an afterthought. -More audience participation?

Other feedback I think we have the opportunity to set a higher goal next year, as we seem to consistently pass the goal by a sizable margin, and a larger goal could allow for more people to consider donating without being in your face about pressure. loved dune's certificates - definitely unbiased person and not the person whomst made them Overall, I am happy with the event. The "show" was good even if things were hectic/tense behind the scenes. We surpassed our fundraising goal and I think people had fun. Hard to argue that Taco dos Mayo was anything other than a success. Some of the biggest issues we encountered were entirely out of our hands: -Mother's Day timing -Maincord closing -Lack of blaseball -Hosts/Planning team getting covid Shizz happened this year for sure and we didn't have the time/energy/people power we needed. There's a fine line between too many cooks in the kitchen and too few, and I think we experienced both from start to finish. We either need to scale future events down to the bandwidth of the core team, or we need more people to make firm(er?) commitments.

no worries, you did not make a commitment for something by signing up for those roles, and you were aware of what you had the capacity to do, which was more than enough
