Those of you who play Splinterlands know that our two-week season ended today, and all play across these two weeks would result in rewards! I was excited, but I was also nervous about the results. I wasn't able to push as hard this season because of personal events going on here at home, so I was curious how well things would go for me. As you can see from the title, it was MORE than successful--it's a dream come true!
You see, I'm the typical girl, just trying to make my way through life with a smile, and I wanted to give Splinterlands a try a month and a half ago to see if my investment would pay off for me. I've been working to find ways to bring in some extra money, but when you have very little, you must start small and DREAM BIG! After chatting with my friend, I decided maybe Splinterlands could bring a little hope to my life and a little sparkle in my step. 😊 I played on my rosiew account, but I won a legendary card pretty quickly on an alt account I made so I could play when the energy was low on rosiew. I paid that initial $10 for a spellbook for the accounts, but that was it. The account has already been paid off from that card alone, not to mention the wins I've earned from playing daily quests which COST ME NOTHING and the season rewards.
Now for me the next sight I've had is land. I'm a girl with a free spirit; I love the dream of land and what it gives you. I love the freedom to own a piece of something meaningful in life, especially if it's rich in history like so much of Kansas is here. When I heard about land in Splinterlands, I've wanted to own a plot ever since, but I didn't have the money to get it, so I've just worked away, a little every day. I also started blogging here with the dream that if I shared my passion and love for land both in real life and in Splinterlands, perhaps others would share that same passion with me. It's been wonderful, and you all have been so supportive on my journey as a novice SplinterLassie. ;)
Well, I couldn't believe it, but when I collected my rewards today, my alt account struck GOLD! It's just like those old gold miners out with their pick axes, working the land to find treasure! I had played just a little, grinding away for some daily quests when I could, and I was at bronze league and that's it. I didn't have time to rent cards this season to increase my power. In fact, I rented my first cards out, and I'm so proud of myself, but that's for another post!
I clicked the chests and it's as if my axe got stuck, because the whole chest shook with excitement and I gasped then held my breath as I watched it open to see what treasure I had found and IT WAS A GOLD LEGENDARY CARD (along with some other amazing cards as well!!)
You guys! When I won this card, it was worth $420!!! I wanted sooo badly to keep it, because it's my first gold legendary card, and I'm quite a sentimental soul like that, but I decided I HAD to sell this card, because it may be the ticket to me getting a plot of LAND!!! I won this card JUST BECAUSE I played some hands over two weeks when I had time. I actually WON THIS card, and I spent NOTHING to get it.
Here are the other cards I won as well!
Well, I posted it for $415 so that hopefully someone might get it, and I SOLD IT! And you want to know what ELSE happened? Well, of course because the season is ending for all of us, MORE people got that card and wanted to sell it as well, so that brought the price down, and so yes, I MADE MONEY by racing over to sell it as fast as I could.
I will miss the precious Goldie Harklaw, but he was sacrificed for the bigger prize-- LAND! And I'm just SO happy that I did it! It can happen for you too! Now I will wait and watch the land prices, and see when I want to get it. In the meantime, I'm earning SPS for my DEC, and I'm wanting to play Splinterlands even MORE! ANYONE can win! Anyone can play! Please consider it while the new cards are flowing like honey! Thank you so much for reading my post! I hope you enjoyed it, and I truly hope you have also won some amazing rewards as well!
