There are many bot services available that non-coders can use, and those tend to actually be much better than individual custom-coded software from what I've seen, so I don't see any reason that coders

There is a large pool of SPS inflation that is currently unallocated that could potentially be used for this if that's what the SPS stakeholders want.

These are all things that we have thoroughly considered in designing this new format and it's good that you brought them up for further discussion. The first thing to keep in mind is that most everything

We 100% plan to provide as much in-game utility for land as we can, but we need to wait until the current ongoing work on land is completed before we can start on that. I can assure you the team wants

Typically I try not to respond to obvious trolling, but I thought it was important to address the absolute ridiculousness of this comment. First, that is what businesses do. They try to create products

Currently, the Splinterlands codebase is proprietary and is owned, along with the Splinterlands IP, by the Splinterlands company, so it will only be possible to hire a third party to develop any of these

I see no issue with doing $1 / 5 card starter packs instead of the $5 / 25 card version. If the community agrees I would be happy to change that.

who would like to own a card if they know the price will drop 90% in 1 year? Aside from Chaos Legion, I don't think there are any sets in which the price has dropped anywhere close to 90% from the price

I am open to a $1 pack with 5 cards instead of the $5 pack with 25 cards. It really doesn't make any difference as far as economy design. The thinking behind making the starter packs non-transferrable

I think we need to do both. I don't know how we can possibly support the game without selling new cards, which is something that every other TCG I know of does and still manages to attract new players.

The main purpose of Modern Format was to give Splinterlands an affordable entry price to new players I don't consider that to be the main purpose of Modern format. Pretty much every trading card game I

See my response to @dejota above as he asked a similar question:

There is not planned to be any limit on the starter packs. The problem with CL was that we sold massive numbers of packs at extreme discounts in a desperate attempt to get revenue, which caused a lot of

What about a Mini-Starter Pack? 1,250 DEC for 5 Cards (80% chance common, 20% chance Rare only and no GF)? If people want to save a bit they will go with the standard starter pack for 5,000 DEC and 25

The alchemist pack price. I'm curious about the math that arrived at this price. Maybe this could be discussed at the town hall. The math for the Legendary and Alchemist packs were similar. They both provide

We have some neat ideas for that which we're in the process of planning out. Stay tuned!

There's no pack type that guarantees Epic cards, but every card in Booster and Alchemist packs and four out of the five cards in Legendary packs will have the typical 4% chance of being Epic.

The entire economy of the game is based around players spending money to purchase in-game assets. That's what drives value to the SPS token. Releasing new card sets has been the primary method of driving

Good question - we'll consider that when designing the set.

Yes - sorry that wasn't more clear in the post!
