@wildebunny you do make some interesting points of discussion around;
1.) Do we need to decentralize?
2.) If so, how much of a priority is it at the moment

MY OPINION
1.) Yes, I believe Splinterlands should decentralize at some point.
2.) FYI: I do own a validator license BUT I don't think it is a priority at this time. I put a higher priority on cleaning up the games user experience to make it more aligned with easily onboarding new non-crypto users, AND then marketing to support that cause.
Personally, I think they should be asking for funds from the DAO to migrate the game to a better blockchain that will align with all their future development plans BEFORE they start building out the SPS Chain... but now that I think about it, if your going to migrate, that is probably the best time to build out your new foundation on your own chain.
