SplinterGlossary: Rulesets Dominate a Week of Major Splinterlands Announcements

avatar

This is the weekly update on the progress of SplinterGlossary.

What Is SplinterGlossary?

SplinterGlossary is that section of LeoGlossary that defines a glossary of inter-linked terms and definitions for Splinterlands. LeoGlossary is focused on financial, general crypto, but also including Hive and Leofinance terms and definitions, banking terms, and a series of specific lists.

Numbers of the Week

There are currently 230 terms in the SplinterGlossary, 2 more than at the last update.

We are up to 180 definitions written for SplinterGlossary, 20 more since the last update. Next week we should have 200 definitions introduced.

Some Details

This was a week of huge announcements on the part of the Splinterlands team. We'll get two presales starting in September, one for Riftwatchers and one for the Splinterlands Tower Defense Game (SPLTD).

Since I have a major focus on Splinterlands, I obviously need to be well-informed about the changes coming to the game, often before they happen. And for SplinterGlossary, it is a continuous work of maintenance of the content already introduced.

That being said, I updated the definition for Riftwatchers this week to include the newly announced details, and I added a new term and definition for the tower defense game, both of them linked above.

I also updated a couple of the older definitions with new links (not as many as I thought I would), and I added the definition for the final orphan term (right now) about the current gameplay:

Other than that, I added ruleset definitions. So far I preferred to keep them mostly identical to the descriptions offered officially, with added links. But I believe in the future these can be expanded or improved (at least some of them).

Plans for Next Week

Let's see what Splinterlands has in store for us at the next Town Hall. It may be the case that my plans for the week depend on these announcements for a while since they have planned important announcements in most Town Halls until after Splinterfest.

Other than that, I'll add more rulesets, and potentially add the abilities terms this week since I'm getting close to wrapping up rulesets. If I'll have the time, I'll check on older definitions to add more links.

Final Words

Remember that the success or not of this project depends a lot on the contribution of others. When you use terms defined in SplinterGlossary in your Splinterlands/gaming posts, it would be great if you'd link them to those definition posts.

Also, if you notice something wrong in any of the defined terms, please let me know in these weekly updates.

You are coming along nicely on the glossary. Not being a player, it is easy to get lost in the jargon. Your glossary is proving to be quite helpful.

With all the layers upon layers being added, sometimes people who are already familiar with Splinterlands can't keep up. I'm sure the SplinterGlossary will become an increasingly useful resource. Provided I can keep it up to date with all the things coming up in waves.

It is! I really missed this kind of resource a year and a half ago when I started. I had to use five sources and gather understanding by the grain. lol

Not on SplinterGlossary... The "meta" keeps changing even in the lower leagues and keeping such content updated can be a nightmare. @bulldog1205 sometimes talks about strategies in the lower leagues or building a deck on a budget. Maybe you should check him out.

It's always nice to see the glossary expand and I think the rule sets will come in helpful towards those weekly challenge posts. If I have some extra time, I'll make sure to link those in my own battle posts.

Yep, rulesets are very commonly used terms. So are abilities, and I'll add them next.
