"Now that Land is Released We Have Nothing to Moan About" claims Splinterland's Stalwarts

It was all quiet in Splinterlands Discord this week after the Splinterlands team finally delivered the much anticipated and moaned about Land Expansion. Some would even say it was a bit too quiet as the Splinterlands community had feck all to moan about from what is now a wealth of resources.

"I preferred it when Land was an issue" claimed @hauntedscarlett who was organising a tools down protest against the Splinterlands game for not launching Land before SPS.
"Now we have nothing to moan or give out about anymore," she said with a touch of sadness.
"I wouldn't mind but the Land Expansion UI has exceeded our expectations so there is nothing to give out about here either."
"The soulbound cards are great as well and they are giving me a reason to play ranked battles again," she said with a tear in her eye.

@pelacorjimmy thinks the same.
"Discord is just not the same place it used to be,"
"I used to look forward coming home from work and spending my evenings passive aggressively slagging off the entire Splinterlands leadership team on Maverick Chat. Typing in a sly dig about Land here and there. Not saying enough to get kicked out but saying enough to make my point about Land."

"How many plots do I have? Oh well that would be zero but that's not the point!"

@venariannmarie has been slowly moving over to Genesis League Sport to moan about this platform now and has decided to up sticks as there is nothing happening at Splinterlands at the moment.
"When I say there is nothing happening, I know there is stuff happening but nothing controversial. Splinterlands are hitting all their targets and making good decisions. Sure that is no fun. I want a bit of drama in my life."

Splinterlands devs are said to be more happy that nobody is moaning at them. So much so that they pride the new lack of moaning higher than their excellent Land Expansion achievement. They can finally go to the park with their children without some numpty asking them "When Land?"

"It's a life changer really," said one developer. All those 16 hour shifts for the last 6 months were worth the hassle.
"I am also no longer getting the death threats."
"I didn't make those losers buy 10 regions and 5 tracts".
"There was no gun to their head."
"If you buy invisible land plots that have not launched yet on a game that is not mainstream yet then you are asking for trouble!"
"I heard some dude broke up with his wife after he spent all his money on plots. Trying to tell his wife what all his savings went on would have been a mammoth task so he just told her he spent their savings on hookers. It was just easier that way. Question for all you 30 plus married Splinterland's players. Have you ever explained Splinterland's to your wife? Did she give you that look? Course she did!"

"At least on the divorce papers she could write down something normal rather than a Jack in the Beanstalk type explanation where he spent all their money on magical land plots in a monsters card game."

"But why was it my fault?? I'm just a coder!!"
"But that is all over and Land is here and these people are now sending me flowers and they don't have cyanide in them."

Since the release of land Splinterlands OG's have been scurrying to find something else to moan about in the game and rumour has it that they have their sights set on Dec Batteries to see what is planned for this in the long term but at the moment things are quiet.
"The community has purchased millions of these batteries and nobody knows what they are for yet. Some players never learn their lesson from land."

Back in lonely San Fran @venariannmarie is so melancholy that she cancelled her live Twitch event.
"Sometimes I wish we could turn back time"
"I lament upon the good old days where we could have a good old moan about Land."
"And now it is out, I have a giant hole in my life."
"I wish things were back to normal but hopefully there will be a giant fuck up during the next phase or with a bit of luck the prices will plummet."
"I can only live in hope." "I am praying to baby Jesus every day so fingers crossed."
"Things are going too smoothly lately and I am going to earn loads from land and it's just shite."

"And to make matters worse, they might even start hiring again soon," sniffs Ann Marie as she grabs some more wine as a result of looming boredom.

Dude, you need to stop disclaiming that this is satire. I want it to be considered truth by future generations of Splinterlands players.

I only write the satire disclaimer as a way to stop the uppercrusts with a million Hive power from downvoting me. You can't downvote a Horatian satirist. Surely not! That would be uncouth.

A million HIVE power you say? Well, there's a solution. Get SPS, and downvote their whacky Splinterlands proposals. Allow them to burn down the great libraries of HIVE, but they will never obtain the SPS I gathered while waiting so patiently, tugging on the coat tails of wen land; as I constantly increased the power delta on HIVE, while trying to increase it on SPS.

Can a wail whale? I look forward to your next instalment.

I've done so in the past. It is good for the soul. I've just got 438 exorcisms booked over the coming weeks, all derived by delivering toxic positivity to the demons that are hidden within.

I'll be putting that holy water factory out of business in the coming decades with my soon to be patented system.
