Very Different

Well not that it is new information, but seeing is believing. Analyzing is realizing. I am looking at Splinterlands regions through a completely different lens. I am observing what people did in the past, and what they are doing now and into the future. All this is public data and was always available, but wasn't easy to consume before. Thanks to @beaker007 it is now. He is additing new functionality to his tool on a daily basis:

It has now chart data for every reagion, can be displayed 6 at a time. Also have all the tract level data too. It has beautiful charts, but you can also download the data as a CSV file and make your own custom chart like I did above.

My Regions

First thing is, only Region 10 is all mine, the other two I have a small number of plots. However, my main goal with the plot above is to show how the three regions are different, and what is happening there overall.

Frist thing is 'activity', because this is the first metric we should look at.

Region 9 is 52% active, followed by Region 47 which is 37% active (slightly above average of 33% activity), and finally my region 10, which is 31% active! Yes, I am below average. Such is life. However, there is no point hiding, and I want us to be transparent.

Region 9 is mostly desert, so obviously a lot of stone production is happening there. Region 10 is almost equally wood and iron, which I like a lot; but almost no stone. Region 47 is interesting. Lots of people are producing grain there. It is many owners. I think I count 90 owners!! Many with just one plot. So if you just have one plot, or 15 plots like me, what are you mostly likely going to do? If you can, likely you will farm some grain. Also as a reminder:

Grain is farmed in Plains, River, Bog, Lake

Also this is Region 47, visually

Yes I see a lot of lot of Lakes and Rivers!

If I add, I get 722 plots that can produce grain! No wonder this region is grain heavy. But that is not all though. When I first looked at this Region 47, it struck me that it is showing a surprisingly high allocation of research! Something, that is not in vogue at the moment.

It has 1.6M boosted PP allocated for research! Who are these people? Come out, come out please!!

Tracts of Region 47 allocation

Oh! Hello! Tract 4 is empty!

So, is Tract 7! Empty as a tin can!!

Hey, folks; are you willing to have a conversation? Tract 4 and Tract 7: are they up for sale?

Tract 2 has a massive amount of boosted research. How are they paying for the assets? Buying?

Folks in Tract 9! SOS! Are you still producing SPS and losing value? Why? Do you like to turn them off and produce some grain?

These are my thoughts. Let us start some conversations around these interesting aspects. I am sure there are a lot of deals to be made. Win-Win folks!
