Hey there. I like your positive messages. Way to keep things in perspective. Sometimes, I get too serious and competitive with this game and forget to have fun or enjoy those really clever wins. Lately, I have dedicate a little time to read some of the Splinterlands blogs and distribute some tournament winnings. It makes me smile to give back to the new players like you who are active and engaged.
You can add two more examples to your post. I had two new players join my guild two years ago with only starter decks. They learned to play and dedicated themselves to playing, learning, and earning. They were very hard workers and savers. Their skills sets became so good that they started to play investor's decks for a 50/50 split. One is now a top 3 player in the Champion league and the other is a good player earning a great living and having fun. I am so happy for them.
You hit on a great point about making the best of what you have. I think the most important thing for a new player is to 1, have fun, and 2, learn the strategies of each league. If you can hone that skill set, it will bring you opportunities to climb the ranks if that is your goal.
I enjoyed reading this post and that sun tea sounds really good. Another little gift will find its way to you. It's not as awesome as the 2K chest, but I hope you will enjoy it just the same. Take care.
Ahhh, Mello, thank you so much! You are so kind to me. I really appreciate your gift (which is just so thoughtful of you I can't even find the words to express how I feel about it.. thank you!), you great advice which is so helpful to new players like me, and your time which is invaluable, but you use that time to help others and that's so very generous.
I will keep all of this in mind as I continue to learn. I'm just doing the best I can as I go, and I'm enjoying it. My favorite part really is meeting new people from the community and hearing their stories. :)
BTW what is your Guild called? I've been thinking I want to get into one but yours is probably pretty competitive and I'm so new! HAHA!
Have a great day!
If you like to meet new people, then the Splinterlands community is second to none. And better yet, the developers of the game value their players and community, so our voices matter here.
My guild is Team Possible. We have several different levels for all types of players, but I think we are currently full with a waiting list. I will find out some more detail for you though. Happy battling.
Okay, thank you so much!!
So all Team Possible guilds are currently full. There is a wait list of about 30 players. There is no immediate plans to create more guilds unfortunately. If you are interested, I can add you to the wait list which is first come first serve.
Ahhh thank you, Mello! Someone sent me a guild invite so I have joined them now. It's a little bit of DEC a day, but I think it will pay off in the end or at least I hope so!! Thank you though SO MUCH for looking for me!! I truly appreciate it!
That's great that you joined a guild. I'm glad there are new ones available for new players. I know the membership fees sux, but it cost money to create and upgrade a guild so it's gotta come form somewhere. I hope you have a good experience with your guild. It can elevate your enjoyment of this game. Happy battling.
YAY! Thanks so much! I'm so happy as well! :) Now I've got to figure out these brawls! HAHA!
