Is it a bot or a real player? Hard question which is being ask almost every day in Splinterlands. This is new reality of blockchain games. Full transaparency and automated play ability changes the world of games.
Let's ask then:
Which accounts played the most consecutive days in Splinterlands?
Why 158 is the highest number? Maybe it is the point from I have started to track these stats or some glitch in the game when nobody could play.
This is actually top 250 players. As you can see there is something very special about Splinterlands - players seem to play very regularly. So I decided to dig more data:

Further analysis could even find bots or people behaving like bots - just look for anomalies in last table, can you see it?
| Players | Consecutive days |

Anyway, I believe many players in Splinterlands are real because of the incentive this game offers by simply playing everyday.
