Miss out on the Pudgy Penguins’ Inner Igloo today? No worries, here are the notes from the meeting. Luca started by congratulating the community on the new ATH for the collection.

@LucaNetz opened the meeting by noting the team has made a decision but was waiting for one thing to wrap up. He foreshadowed this week is going to be a big for Pudgy Penguins and we should all monitor the official twitter and interact their posts. Luca said he hopes the end of September is as big as August was for the Huddle, as he said we should expect to see more updates on the toy line this week as well as something that makes clearer the vision of Pudgy Penguins. Luca ended his opening comments by saying the Pudgy Penguins team is seeking to solve NFT’s current problem where the main monetization vehicle is airdrops as the team is seeking to shift that vehicle over to IP.
Luca also wanted to remind everyone it is @Berko_Crypto birthday. Send him some love and good vibes as he has done so much for the Pudgy Penguin community.
Any update on the Quest Map?
Expect an update in the September Update on https://media.pudgypenguins.com/blog. Luca said we should expect a 2nd Quest Map, but after that the team may shift away from maps in the future because of changes in the NFT/macro landscape and they box in the team. There are discussions about the possibility of a dynamic quest map that would update using WebGL.
Will there be more licensing opportunities?
Yes. There was actually a good amount of opportunities, but the team wants to narrow them down to only quality products that grow the brand and don’t detract from product integrity.
Will the toys be sold outside the U.S.?
Yes, PMI has distribution capability on other continents.
On next merch run will they have more sizes?
Yes, XXL will be an option, but in limited quantities
Any updates on poker cards?
Sounds like they are ready for shipping, but the team is waiting for the right time to release.
Can we add some Penguin costumes like they had in NYC for Halloween.
Possibly next year, but the team thinks the effort to payoff ratio doesn’t support it this year since the effort spent on a seasonal product can be spent on higher payoff ideas.
When is clout google getting restocked?
This Week
Can we share financial info or does the team want it confidential?
Luca said it’s on the horizon as he wants financials to be transparent and to be a web3 leader in this area, but the team is still likely several quarters away since they are still in startup mode.
Have any job openings been filled?
Yes, 6-7 devs have been hired, and they need more, if you’re interested reach out to Lorenzo. He wants to continue to hire from the community because holders are true dreamers and believers in the brand. You can see current job openings at https://pudgypenguins.com/jobs
There was also a key hire to the community team that we will learn about soon.
Is there any way EU Pengus can help with an IRL, such as scout for locations and venues?
Yes, Lorenzo is working on a tool that will make this easier.
Who makes the GIFs?
The team has both Peter's team of graphic designers, as well as hired freelance artists on the task
When is the rod collection going to be renamed rogs?
The team intentionally named it rods to lower entry barriers and make it easier for non-community members to search for it on marketplaces, once people become part of the community they will be read into the joke.
@The_Bogfather: everyone needs to send the Jaylan Waddle (@D1__JW) football GIF to him since he had a great game today. https://twitter.com/The_Bogfather/status/1571606364589285382?s=20
Is there a possibility of making GIFs organized to make it easier to find?
The team is working on it and a possible solution is on the horizon. Part of the problem is also on the GIPHY side. The team is also looking at tagging the Penguin ID.
Is there a secret rog council?
@ActuallyAgents quickly changed the subject...
@0xfomoPhil asked about an update on the children’s book?
The team is going on a sprint this week, and expect an update this week.
Pudgy Media is being revamped and updates are coming soon.
@CryptoCartman3 asked about any security measures moving forward?
The team is going to make security content a visual experience. If people want to help, or have topics hit up @TheChild1996. You can go to NFTInspect and click on your picture and find other people who use your PFP, you can then report those accounts.
@lou17mar wanted to remind any lady Pengus (including lil holders) to reach out to Leawin or @BuzzedBeeETH to join the Pengu Princesses and they are willing to help the team with any female initiatives. Follow @penguprincesses on Twitter
Expect another inner igloo meeting next Sunday.
