Multiple Missions

Multiple missions should allow people to initiate their own instantiated missions based on the original template.

For example, you post a mission:

  • asking people to get their recycling bins in order at work and at home.
  • asking people to try meditating and report their results.
  • asking people to commit an anonymous random act of kindness.
  • asking people to fund something worthy.

These are open missions anyone can take on, and each person who takes the mission creates their own linked mission without modifying the original.

This is like the promise content type, but that content type is geared for pledge banks where one person commits to doing something and asks others to do it too.

Node-based objectives

In video games, many quests require you to obtain certain objects to complete the mission.

Similarly, missions should be able to include node-based objectives such as obtaining and deploying inventory items based on required tools like recycling bins.

This might become its own task once multimissions is completed.

UPDATE: We can combine Clone module with some Prepopulate like this:

We Are What We Do does this well for their limited set of action

suggestions/logistics

I like the idea of setting out a mission, publicly asking someone to do something different. I dont know if there need to be a whole seperate link/page for that, but on the drop down menu asking who the mission is for, maybe you could add an option like "all/universal" and then people could post their mission  for everyone that way. The comment place could be a place to talk about it if you did the action, and then on the page somewhere there could be an "I did this!" button to click if you completed it. How's that sound?

That's exactly how open missions are going to work

It is going to show everyone's missions that were based on the original open mission. It will provide the set of reusable missions for recurring tasks like weekly FNB duties. All anyone has to do is take on the open biweekly tasks and we'll be able to see who is signed up to do what, not that I expect to see everyone in FNB actually use it this way but you get my point about how open missions work for recurring tasks people can sign up for.

Profiles work now! Woot!
