Splinterlands — A month of rewards

My September rewards broken down

A Look at the Long Game

It can be difficult to remember the good days of rewards when you pull what I pulled yesterday. Five gold chests netted 35 legendary potions and .324 SPS. It is times like this that I like to take a step back and look at the macro view to see how the RNG plays out over a longer stretch. In that mind frame I decided to look at my September rewards as a whole. This gave me an advantage of seeing both the daily rewards, but also two end of season caches to get a better feel for what I'm actually averaging in rewards every day.

Saved by the End of Month
It's not quite as obvious in table form, but the below graph shows how miserable of a run I was having the first half of the month, but then the last half more than made up for the poor run. Before the first season end I was averaging $0.09 in rewards a day. Adding in the Season end on the 15th and that average more than doubled to $0.23 a day.

The two season end rewards totaled almost $8 and added an additional $0.266 to the daily average. Considering this it becomes a bit easier to stomach the several days of $0.04 or less rewards. I needed to see this info for my own sanity as my total for October so far with 57 chest is $1.25 of rewards. Tomorrow's EOS can't come soon enough 😀 Overall I ended up in September with $0.74 average daily rewards. Not bad for playing a game!
