Rusty.... Bad Robot?

(Edited)

Time hasn't been kind to Rusty. As legends have it when Rusty first arrived peopled loved him!

Several Lyverian farmers reported seeing a strange blue light rushing down from the sky one evening and landing with a crash in the fields. Later that evening, a strange metal-skinned device calling itself Rusty Android was making friends with the locals in the tavern.

But the citizens have turned on Rusty. Calling him a BOT. They started chanting that he had unfair advantaged over them. That is wasnt fair that he could stay awake 24 hours at a time working the fields.

They say: All of Praetoria's problems have been caused by him. The BOT!

This artwork is by Jordan W. A very talented artist who knows how to Bring Chaos Legion lore to life!

While working on a splinterlands related project, I needed a image that would convey the nature of all new players blaming bots, and how they couldn't win againnst them. For this i just needed a character and not a full scene. So what character could we come up with?

Introduce our antagonist. Rusty Android

So we needed Rusty to look like he was a Bad BOT. Which is so not the case for Rusty, he is a gental android that like to drink at the tavern with the local farmers.

So I asked Jordan to show Rusty defeating a player. She came back with 3 possibilities.

I liked the one in the top right because it looked like Rusty was looking over his shoulder. He was caught red handed! So Jordan set down the line art needed for this view.

But I liked the Knife in the top left view. So Jordan showed a possible option for this. Ultimatly we decided the knife just wouldnt look right for Rusty to have. He didnt need a knife, he already had a huge claw!

And with that Jordan was off to do what she does best. Bring Splinterlands to life! Adding a bit of base colors.

Adding in some shadowing.

Now all of this was being done with a transparent background. For the side project Rusty would be in a dark background. So the shadows were adjusted.

And finally lets put rusty in the darkness of being a BOT. Caught red handed almost like you opened the door to a dark room and here is what you saw...

Hi,

I am starting a investment club called the SPL Group which has 3 main goals:

  1. Make it free for everyone
  2. Invest heavily in SPS, SPT, Validators and other rare items. Also invest in land and other LP pools on TribalDEX
  3. Create a 100,000,000 fund in 5 years by raising the capital for the first 1,000 investors using bank bonuses to complete the amount of capital needed to start off and be takend seriously enough to raise a larger amount. At 2,000 people we will have capitital of 2,000 min 1,500 (500 bonus equity) or 50% if you do more than 1,000 then you get the bonus amount X 1.5 if you are one of the first 100 members. We have the GP team that will be running the club. I will be geting the referral site up this week so the interested parties can complete the fast easy bonuses and the bonuses will get more complex and usually more money as you move down the list. Like a 50 dollar bonus should only take me 20 minutes and a 600 bonus will likely take a hour. Either way do two of the 500 bonuses and you met the minimum and we get a thousand ppl then the club has 2 million at its disposal and before we raise equity everyone in the club will have a few weeks to do as many bonuses as possible if they want more equity at there current share class and hopefully get to 4-5 million then raising 50-75 million to expand the strategy will not look like so much.

The first 4-5 million will be used to fund the GP and member accounts in full so no out of pocket cash needs to be invested and they can only make money since the money was givent to everyone.

Activities the fund will be doing:

  1. Staking SPS and running SPS Validator nodes
  2. SPT - create an NFT collection for the funds members as well as give some of the Banker NFTs for the Unbanked hopefully future SPL Group Card with SPS on it if I can convince them.
  3. Pre bank bonus funding will come from voting on my self for a bit to get a few grand to jump start the funds treasury and purchase its first assets as well as start onboarding members.
  4. Music, podcasts, streaming - we will do battle streams I will have a show where I battle and narrorate in some creative way as well as create art that we can sell. For any art sold the club treasury receives 25% the artist gets 75%.
  5. Charity - SPL Priv FDN will run a program for new players to get them to higher leagues and help them out in learning to play as with the goal of getting them in the group as a partner.
  6. Most issues for now will be voted on but until the firm becomes a DAO LLC during reg A raise all original share hoolders will be part of the GP team and the rest will be considered limited partners now and will pay a 2% free 20% promote.
  7. The SPT totken will be accumulated as much as possible and we will be hosting lotteries as well as auto voting with any SPT yout have to this account. The posts are really ment to get the most votes and value possible for the fund and then I will go back to currating content. Also we will accumulate substantial stakes in all curation assets and currate each token daily to good posts that are posted on our blog which will be about the fund and what strategies we are using.
  8. We will also talk about general finance and other investments on the blog, podcast, video, etc. THe goal is to show people another way than a 9-5 job if they hate it or dont make enough. I was able to leave my job as a CPA 3 years ago an god I never knew how much I hated taxes lol. Most people literally goto jobs they hate rather than risk something on a project they love. I have half my net worth going into this so Im not going to fail lol.
  9. Strategies in more detail- stable coin LP pools - various - 10-25% apr for 70% of the assets and use the income to invest in riskyer assets, equities public and private, real estate and other. Eventually we will be getting into capital raises of larger direct deals like own a high rise compelex where we plaster various Splinterlands designs on the buidling and incorporate a trading floor with various crypto news constantly up around the room. We will also modify the inside apartments so that they fit to a digital asset investors needs specifically. The complex will be down south in FL most likely as I am likely moving somewhere near thee posiblly Puerto Rico but likely FL. Decided to build a sick camper and just travel as I dont need to work anymore especially without any expenses like I had before. Ways to become financially free will be a key part in the fund is promoting Splinterlands to other social media and blockchain outlets. I will be currating every token I can for a bit I will be self voting but its not for me it is for the fund so please everyone let the excessive self voting slide for a bit so I can get some people in the fund.
  10. The 30% not in stable coins will be in SPS, validators, land, SPT, HIVE, other.
  11. After we hit 2 million SPS we will be trying for 10-50 validators, 10-25 land plots or more, a massive card deck, hive/HDB build up, and 50-80 million SPT so we have more influence.

If anyone would like to be part of this message me and I will add you to the list so I can send out the QR code/link to the referrals which will be on my own website and explain which ones to do and any odd things with them that you should know about as well as estimated time. This is I think a first where someone will fund a investment club entirely for free so will be pretty cool to go down the east coast getting people to do this at investment clubs at colleges etc and just on the street bc I talk to anyone that looks at me and love inserting my self into groups lol.

65 bucks would be insane if I voted 20 times a day I would make about 1300 per day and probably all of it would go into the club and I would just live off those distributions and my dividends as well as working mineral interests , trading nd real estate holdings as well as the money daily from the and private plus the all sorts of alternatives that I hold and have done well on and I was able to get a rare look at what a lot of UNW people invest in and it is a lot of real estate so I started buying up about 1-1.5% the minimum of various real estate syndicatons which both ended up in the 30-50 with two partners and then bought them out of BCKC Capital LLC after they decided they did not want to wait for the taxes as one thing people need to know is I wont get the final tax documents until late auguast and also depending on what you do for the club you may be paid or involved in multiple entiites.

  1. Phalanx Trades LLC - (will be renamed to the SPL Group IC I DAO LLC and act more like a DAO.
