My opinion:

Everyone voting this down that owns at least 20 plots of land is dumb.
Matt is the game designer. He has told you straight up that you need a land card to operate a building. There is no vetoing that. He is the game designer, you are not and neither am I.

As a land owner myself with 34 plots I initially had very little interest in constructing and operating a building because I am grain balanced and I also have a castle so I can just sit back and watch the show and collect from these buildings.

But now that I see how dumb you down voter guys are, shooting yourself in the foot, I am buying the land card packs now whereas before I had no interest in them. I will be selling them back to you (as cards) at a significant increase in price.

I think there is a big disconnect here with you guys because a lot of you have never played a different Web3 land game, I have.

When buildings get released the "land" part of Splinterlands goes from a boring "distribution phase" into a "active phase."

Right now we are not even in the full "distribution phase" because magical resources and outposts have not even been introduced. Those resources would normally be in the "distribution phase."

What I am saying is that Mancer is working hard on land right now and when they drop the next land 2.0 updates it's going to blow right past the "distribution phase" and go right to the "active phase."

Your head is going to spin and you won't know what to do and you will be left with no options even though you were given PLENTY OF WARNING AND EXPLANATION.
