(Edited)

Introduction:
Splinterlands, the popular blockchain-based trading card game, has always been at the forefront of innovation, providing players with an immersive and engaging gaming experience. Here is a new proposal that integrates the XYO network's geolocation technology with Splinterlands' land economy to create a unique, location-based gaming experience. By encouraging players to meet physically and cooperate in battles against monsters occupying unclaimed land plots, it promotes community building, enhances strategic gameplay, and takes player engagement to new heights.

Objective:
To promote player engagement and enhance the gaming experience by utilizing the XYO network to geolocate unclaimed Splinterlands land plots to areas with high concentrations of Splinterland players. This proposal aims to incentivize players to meet physically, form alliances, and cooperate in battles against monsters occupying these unclaimed land plots.

Proposal:

Step 1:
Identify high-density player areas: Utilize the XYO network and Splinterlands' player data to identify regions with high concentrations of active players. Determine the ideal locations for geolocating unclaimed land plots within these areas, ensuring easy accessibility for players.

Step 2:
Geolocate unclaimed land plots: Assign unclaimed Splinterlands land plots to specific real-world locations within the high-density player areas. Integrate these geolocated plots with the XYO network to enable accurate tracking and verification of player presence at these locations.

Step 3:
Monster occupation: Populate unclaimed land plots with various types of monsters, presenting a challenge for players to overcome in order to claim these plots. The difficulty and rewards associated with each plot can be scaled based on factors such as player level, plot location, or number of players participating.

Step 4:
Splinterlands GeoBattle events: Organize periodic "Splinterlands GeoBattle" events at these geolocated land plots, encouraging players to gather physically and collaborate to defeat the occupying monsters. These events can be promoted through in-game notifications, social media, and community channels.

Step 5:
Incentivize player participation: Reward players for participating in these events with exclusive in-game items, resources, or bonuses. Additional incentives, such as leaderboard rankings or achievement badges, can be used to foster a sense of competition and recognition among players.

Step 6:
Claiming land plots: Upon successful completion of a GeoBattle event, the participating players are granted the opportunity to claim the now monster-free land plots. Players can negotiate or compete to distribute the plots among themselves or decide to form alliances and share the plots' resources and benefits.

Step 7:
Ongoing community-building: As players continue to participate in Splinterlands GeoBattle events, they will develop relationships and alliances with fellow players in their area. This fosters a sense of community and can lead to the formation of local Splinterlands clubs, groups, or events.

By implementing this proposal, Splinterlands can enhance player engagement, promote social interaction, and introduce new strategic elements to the game. Integrating the XYO network with the Splinterlands land economy in this manner creates an immersive and rewarding experience that appeals to both existing and potential players.

So Pokemon go, for Splinterlands? :)

Using What3Words for location would be interesting as well.

Agree, another location layer = another layer of fun! XYO location network is interesting in that their cheap sentinel devices attests to physical location so basing rewards on that would prevent cheaters on getting those rewards from their couch, aka Proof of Location

Gotcha. Too easy to spoof location otherwise with a combination of tools. People do that all the time to get cheaper fuel here in Australia :D

The Splinterlands marketing team can put out something like this:

Are you a small business owner looking for innovative ways to attract more customers to your brick-and-mortar store? Consider hosting Sentinel XYO devices at your location and becoming a hot spot for Splinterlands players seeking both virtual and physical rewards!

With the growing popularity of location-based games like Splinterlands, businesses can benefit from increased foot traffic by tapping into the gaming community. By hosting Sentinel XYO devices, your shop could become a prime location for Splinterlands players to gather and battle boss monsters in the game, driving customers to your store and creating a buzz around your business.

Imagine a scenario where your pizza shop is not only a place to grab a delicious slice but also a NFT rewards in the land economy of Splinterlands, known as Praetoria. Players will flock to your location to engage in epic battles against boss monsters, while also being enticed to enjoy your pizza offerings. This unique partnership between the physical and digital worlds creates a win-win situation for gamers and businesses alike.

Here's how it works:

a) Install a Sentinel XYO device at your business location, effectively transforming it into a Splinterlands virtual land plot.

b) Collaborate with Splinterlands to create unique in-game challenges, such as boss monster battles, for players who visit your location.

c) Offer special promotions, discounts, or rewards to Splinterlands players who patronize your business, further incentivizing their visits.

d) By combining the excitement of Splinterlands gameplay with the allure of real-world rewards, you can create a thriving community of loyal customers who are eager to return to your business time and again. This innovative approach not only supports local businesses but also enhances the gaming experience for Splinterlands players, creating a mutually beneficial relationship between the game's community and small brick-and-mortar businesses.
