This is a short sum-up table with the state of my goals in easier TLDR form. The table has only some information, so if you want details, they can be found in the post.
| Current State/Other Selection Criterion | Goals Matching the Criterion |
|---|---|
| Ongoing | 5 (HP + HBD Savings, LEO Staked, Comments Made, DEC Saved, Maxed Cards for Staking on Land) |
| Completed | goals: 0, main goals: 0 |
| Main goals | 3 (HP + HBD Savings, LEO Staked, Comments Made) |
| Goals | 2 (DEC Saved, Maxed Cards for Staking on Land) |
| New Goals | 1 (Maxed Cards for Staking on Land) |
| Increased goals | 4 (HBD target for HP+HBD Main Goal - twice, DEC Saved - twice) |
| Decreased goals | 0 |
I include a link to the initial goal-setting post for 2023, for reference, if needed.
I have been in standby mode for some time with the most important Hive goals I have.
On the HP+HBD main goal, HIVE has been trading mostly sideways and I am waiting for HPUD so things are rather boring. But sometimes boring is good.
My DEC-B saving goal entered a sort of routine for most of the week, while the goal of purchasing maxed cards for staking on land is currently on hold until after surveying.
LEO stake kept growing, but I won't make it to the guideline this month since I won't make any purchases.
Let's see what changed since last week regarding my Hive goals.
HIVE Power (HP) + HBD in Savings Main Goal
My staked HP is 27284 HP this week. HBD savings remained at 1100 HBD, without any changes.
I'm waiting patiently for HPUD unless something wild happens in the market.
Here's what the evolution of the HP+HBD goal looks like:
I'll need to have one of the targets (HBD or HIVE) reached to consider this goal completed.
If a target becomes too easy, I may increase the target, but not forever. Just like the market can play against your targets, they can play in their favor too.
LEO Staked Main Goal
206 LEO staked last week.
310 LEO left to stake in March to meet the 1000 LEO power-up guideline, in about 5 days from now. Seems quite difficult to achieve without any purchases in the remaining time...
Splinterlands Land Expansion Main Focus
Land expansion's main focus extends throughout 2023. Unless I change the strategy, it will be the only main focus / main goal for Splinterlands in 2023. But there will be several 1-3 months goals.
The Secret of Praetoria whitepaper for land expansion 1.5 was released recently and it contains relevant information that made me adjust some short-term and even medium-term approaches to my goals and the targets themselves.
First Land-Related Goal: DEC/DEC-B Saved
Deadline: When DEC-B offer runs out, either because all were sold out or because the time limit was reached (April 9th).
Target to consider the goal completed: 2 mil. DEC-B saved.
Current status: 1294k DEC-B (+316k DEC-B)
This goal will end soon, but after that, another goal of the same nature will begin.
New Land-Related Goal: Maxed Cards for Staking on Land
This goal is on hold until after I survey my land.The whitepaper revealed a potential 50% performance reduction for staked cards based on their splinter association with the type of terrain. Without knowing what type of terrain I'll have, especially on the most valuable plots, I'd buy cards blindly. I'll most likely have to sell some cards afterwards and buy other cards, but I probably won't buy any more cards at this time.
The purpose of this goal is to build the amount of maxed-level cards I need for staking on my tract.
We will need to fill 5 slots per plot with staked cards, without requiring summoners (that doesn't mean they can't be used as regular cards).
So, what are the details of it?
Deadline: June 2023, probably.
The number of maxed-level cards needed for staking on land: 500 (5 x 100).
Current situation: 111 / 500 (+4, of which 2 GFL) (22.2%)
Time remaining: ~11 weeks
I could probably add some more maxed-level cards from my playing deck if I'll need to (some are probably underutilized in my playing deck).
Comments Made
I started this week with a total of 13055 comments made.
Ended the week with 13158 comments made, which brings the number of my comments this week to 103, which is pretty good lately.
I now need an average of 121 to reach the goal of 18k.
Weekly Task - Buy ALIVE Tokens
For a long time, I had some stake of ALIVE tokens but believed they are mostly related to the "Alive and Thriving" posts, and I thought this is not the kind of post I was publishing, so I neglected the ALIVE tokens.
Recently, I discovered they can be quite rewarding if you know how/where to use them.
This week I decided to buy some. It's more like a decision on my part to slowly build up the stake because they can be earned too.
