GG24 Domain Proposal Voting Scorecard thread
I plan to use this scorecard to quickly assess the strength of any GG24 domain proposal.
I hope that articulating my criteria I will help domain prospers understand the criteria they will be judged upon (at least by me, I can’t speak for other stewards). The goal of doing this is to make my voting less arbitrary/capricious and more legibile/transparent.
Owockis scorecard
Score each criterion 0–2 points (0 = not met, 1 = partially met, 2 = fully met).
Max score: 16 points. Higher scores = stronger proposals.
| # | Criterion | 0 | 1 | 2 | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Problem Focus – Clearly frames a real problem, (one that is a priority), avoids “solutionism” | ||||
| 2 | Credible, High leverage, Evidence-Based Approach – Solutions are high-leverage and grounded in credible research | ||||
| 3 | Domain Expertise – Proposal has active involvement from recognized experts | ||||
| 4 | Co-Funding – Has financial backing beyond just Gitcoin | ||||
| 5 | Fit-for-Purpose Capital Allocation Method – Methodology matches the epistemology of the domain | ||||
| 6 | Clarity (TL;DR) – Includes a concise summary at the top | ||||
| 7 | Execution Readiness – Can deliver meaningful results by October | ||||
| 8 | Other - general vibe check and other stuff I may have missed aboev… |

I invite other top stewards ( @ccerv1 @MathildaDV @kbw and so on ), or really anyone who plans to vote on proposals, to post their scorecards in the thread below!
I invite anyone who is submitting a domain to critique my scorecard. Should I weigh different pieces higher than others? Should I be using other criteria, let me know below!
