Update the Board

The one weekly door — how Players and Circles keep the Game, and the Superorganism, visible to itself.


Once a week, at the close of your gathering, your Circle's board-tender takes two minutes here. That is the whole discipline. Through this one door flow all the updates the Board lives on:

  • A Circle's Weekly Turn — the five lines: DID (against last week's WILL, honestly) · WILL · LEARNED · NEEDS · OFFERS — plus commitments kept (x of y). → Template For Weekly Turn Post
  • A Player's update — a new or renewed Pledge, gifts, a change of state.
  • A sealing — your new Circle, taking its place. → Play — Seal the Circle
  • A new Quest chosen · a Story harvested.

How, this week: the update form is being established — and when it opens, its link travels through the doors (your email, the Server), never posted raw on the open web: bots cannot walk through doors held by humans. Until it opens: post your Turn to the #turns channel of The Communication Platform, or send it through any door on Reaching Us, and the stewards will tend it onto the Board.

What happens to what you send: it becomes the record — your Quest card's turns:: line, your cards in The Commons, the tiles on the Board. The needs you name are seen by the whole body; the offers you name answer someone else's need. This is how one body of many Circles knows itself, plans itself, and moves as one.
