My Splinterlands Blog 2023 | Week #25

Greetings Splinterfolk!

The purpose of this series of posts is to showcase the progress of my Splinterlands blog in 2023.

My Splinterlands journey began in October 2021 after I read an article about the emerging Play-to-Earn genre in the NFT world. Out of all the games, I was naturally drawn to Splinterlands due to my love of CCGs/TCGs.

Before I knew it, I found myself with several accounts and spending a good couple of hours playing every single day. I would play on multiple accounts in a day and alternate between my accounts throughout the week in order to maximize my daily rewards and ECR. After just 3 months, I managed to turn my initial $70 investment into $400, which you can read more about here.

Due to changes in my personal life at the beginning of 2022, I was no longer able to devote significant time to juggling multiple accounts and grinding Splinterlands daily. Fortunately, there are always multiple ways to immerse yourself in a game. So, I made the decision to stop playing completely and focus more on micromanaging my assets, investing in card sets, and blogging about my experiences.

I published my first blog post on 16 January 2022, which you can read here. Since then, I have been able to create several series:

• My Splinterlands Journey
• Chaos Legion Investment
• Riftwatchers Investment
• Splinterlands: A Buyer's Guide 2023
• Splinterlands: State of the Game 2023
• Splinterlands: Weekly Giveaway

Below is my best performing post this week based on community engagement and/or curation rewards.

While Splinterlands does have a referral program, it only benefits the referrer and not the referee. Therefore, it is up to us (the existing players) to create our own referral program to help new players enter into the game. I've outlined below how my custom referral program works:

• Sign up for Splinterlands through my referral link here.
• Once you buy the Summoner's Spellbook, I will receive 500 credits ($0.50) which I will use to buy DEC, cards, or both to help you start your Splinterlands journey.
• All you need to do is comment below the IGN you used to sign up with. Once I have verified it, I will reach out to see what you would like to spend your $0.50 on and then send it over.
