Historical Time Table of Splinterlands
I have been working on putting together a historical timeline of events for Splinterlands. It is not difficult to gather, but rather difficult to put together in a short and consumable format. I know
Hive account@bjangles is working on a graphical display, which I am looking forward to see. However, I wanted to update a series of tables. These are not of numbers and dates I have staring for a while, so it is possible that I made mistakes in these table, so please help me fact check if you can.

Thanks to
Hive account@saydie for these assets!
