Being a big bam player on splinterlands has got me many good times and rants at times but come on life will not be fun without up and down moments.
Now let's get to the reason for this post.
The splinterfest is something that I saw coming, but I never knew it will be in October as I thought it will be in late November, even though the date was shifted to October from august, I still wasn't ready as it takes 3 months to get my Nigerians passport ready, and visa approver takes 1 month, this all makes it 4 months along with the money it takes to get one of those passports is equal to $250 and for a visa, it was $150 roughly. all that might be small but the requirements for quick approval were to get a place to stay and a minimum of $2000 on my account.
if I calculated all that I knew this was getting close to $2k and still not done yet for the money issue I will still need to buy the tickets and I set off with it and I covered passport, staying, visa, and flight which was about $1400 for the flight alone (economy). I still have some money felt but not enough to pay for the tickets.
Nothing is more painful than full preparation and still having one last issue to spoil the perfect plan, roughly I have about $134 left but needed $166 to complete it with a few more to complete the ticket for the event. I will be glad if anyone could help out with the tickets. I just need a few more to take care of the tickets and I will be ready to move.
Regarding my experience in the game, I am a Dimond/champion with high game calculation, and since being one of the best players in the game and also one of the few from Africa who is in the game I will like to represent Africans and hope to get the grand bet that will be given to the best player.😇
below shows a picture of some of the things I have tried to accomplish so far regarding travel.
