Public Lives Lab · player-shaped development
Help us build a city worth living in.
Report a broken moment. Name the friction nobody else can see. Bring an idea small enough to test. We will show what we heard, what we tried and what happened next.

The working agreement
Your experience becomes evidence.
Votes are easy to game. The Lab asks what happened, who it affects and what the smallest useful test could be.
Bug
Recreate a broken moment with optional, previewed diagnostics.
Friction
Show where a clear intention met a confusing or tiring path.
Idea
Name the player need and propose the smallest version worth testing.
Public build ledger
What players changed.
Only curated, consent-safe items appear here. Private submissions and conversations are never published as raw reports.
The public Lab board is being prepared.
No outcomes are being invented while the live board is empty or unavailable. Published tests and decisions will appear here when they exist.
Published selection rubric
How the next 14 days are chosen.
Safety & invariants
Does it protect people and fit the game's locked safety, consent, fairness and no-pay-to-win rules?
Player evidence
Can we reproduce or clearly describe the need, including the distribution of reasons people support it?
Learning value
Will the test answer a consequential question instead of merely producing activity?
Feasible & reversible
Can a bounded version be built, observed and safely stopped within the 14-day cycle?
Sparse-first & accessible
Is it useful with few people online, ethically worth returning to, and usable across access needs?
Operational cost
Can the team moderate, support and maintain it without making promises the rota cannot keep?
