Which grant pool are you applying for?
Innovation, Startup, Research and Development (R&D)
How do you plan on using your grant funding?
Since sync likes bots so much I plan on using it for a very high tech bot here are the features
Distribute Comic Books: Provide a platform for creators to share their comic books directly with readers within the Discord community.
Enhance Engagement: Encourage interaction with the comic books through reading, ratings, and discussions.
Community Building: Foster a sense of community around comic book creation and appreciation.
Discoverability: Increase the visibility of new comic books and help popular ones gain more traction.
Provide Feedback: Gather feedback and insights from readers for the creators.
Functionality and Explanation:
Here's how the bot could work, broken down into steps:
Comic Submission:
Command: Creators would use a specific command (e.g., !submitComic) to upload their comic book.
Format: The bot should accept common image formats (JPG, PNG) or PDF files.
Metadata: The creator should provide metadata like title, author, genre, description, and a cover image.
Comic Display:
Command: Readers can use a command (e.g., !readComic [title]) to access and read a specific comic book.
Display: The bot could either display the comic book page by page within the Discord channel (if using images) or provide a link to a readable version (if using PDF).
Organization: The bot should organize comics by title, author, and genre for easy browsing.
Rating and Popularity:
Command: Readers can rate comic books using a command (e.g., !rateComic [title] [rating]).
Rating System: A simple star-based rating system (1-5 stars) or a thumbs-up/thumbs-down system could be used.
Popularity Algorithm: The bot uses an algorithm to track the popularity of each comic based on ratings, views, and potentially other metrics (e.g., comments, shares).
Promotion of Popular Comics:
Automated Posting: The bot automatically posts the most popular comic books in a designated channel (e.g., #popular-comics) at regular intervals. This could be a daily digest or a weekly showcase.
Ranking System: The bot can display a leaderboard of the top-rated or most viewed comic books.
Discussion Channel:
Channel Creation: When a new comic is submitted, the bot can create a dedicated discussion channel or attach a thread to the comic book entry. This allows readers to discuss the comic and provide feedback to the creator.
Search Functionality:
Command: Readers can use a command (e.g., !searchComics [keyword]) to search for comic books based on title, author, genre, or description.
Notifications:
New Comic Alerts: Users can opt-in to receive notifications when new comic books are submitted.
Creator Alerts: Creators can be notified when their comic book reaches a certain level of popularity or receives a certain number of ratings.
Example Scenario:
Creator Uploads: An artist uploads their new comic, "Space Explorers," using the command !submitComic Space Explorers @artist1 Space Adventure This is the story....
Reader Reads: A reader uses !readComic Space Explorers to access and read the comic.
Reader Rates: The reader rates the comic 4 stars with!rateComic Space Explorers 4.
Bot Tracks: The bot records the view and rating.
Popular Comic: If "Space Explorers" becomes highly rated and viewed, the bot automatically posts it in the #popular-comics channel with a link to read it.
Benefits for Creators:
Direct Audience: Access to a dedicated audience within the Discord server.
Feedback: Receive direct feedback from readers to improve their work.
Exposure: Increased visibility for their comic books.
Community: Become part of a community of comic book enthusiasts.
Benefits for Readers:
Discovery: Discover new and interesting comic books.
Convenience: Easily access and read comics within Discord.
Community: Connect with other comic book readers and creators.
Influence: Rate and review comics, influencing their popularity.
