RE: Week through Adrian's Lenses (11-17 May 2024)
The Splinterlands loot chest fiasco was a nightmare. The team didn't account how much Glint the bot farms had and can create with the SB cards. The jackpot was supposed to last for months, but it was almost depleted in a day, BEFORE EOS.

Yeah, I saw that. The thing is, FARM networks (bot or human!!) are a threat to any game that can offer something extractable where there can be a net positive for the farms. That's why Matt keeps trying to push higher rewards for higher ratings because farm networks generally operate at lower ratings.
I think one positive thing came out of this. The team now probably has a better idea of many other accounts that are part of these farm networks of which they didn't know before.
That is a good way to look at it. Now if only the team has any plans of stopping their extraction any time soon, that would be great. But as long as they maintain their policy of "your cards, your decision", then knowing these accounts wouldn't do anything.
