RE: The Curation and Engagement Leagues 🏆

in #engagement5 years ago

Hey, @abh12345.

I don't think I have a lot to say, other than the last two posts of mine basically helped to double my overall comments for this past week, so all the other categories benefited too.

I've spent a lot of time on STEEM talking about what others wanted to talk about, and I've tried to limit my replies to things I've been interested in and things I know, in order to feel like I'm contributing and to keep me from getting bored and producing bot-like answers. Every now and then I've asked questions when I had no clue, but by and large, I've kept to interest and knowledge.

Over the last few weeks there's been a change—in me, or the platform, maybe both, but most likely just me :)—where I've grown tired of a lot of the topics and conversations. Getting older does that to you, I know. Talking about the same things over and over again without results also gets to me. Life is too short for endless circles.

It's not like every post no longer interests me. That's simply not true. It just seems like I'm either skipping over or sifting through more and more posts.

At any rate, on that happy note, thank you, as always, for the leagues, for the bringing us all together, and for everything else you do individually, as a partnership, or as part of a group, here on STEEM. While my numbers won't always reflect it, I still think this is the, bar none, the best initiative on the face of STEEM today, especially when it comes to engagement, but even beyond that.

The fact that we've got plankton, minnows, dolphins and maybe an orca or two all participating here, with anyone who puts in the time able to reach the Top 25, is awesome. No need to single out newbies or whatever because they've just arrived. Just throw them in the mix and let them find out what it takes to move the SP meter here.

No need for handicaps, special treatment, or the like. People show up, do what they do, and if they don't like what happened, they can be safe in the knowledge that there's no one else to point a finger at other than at what they did or didn't accomplish. Pure and simple. Fair as fair can be.

So, thanks for all of that.

Okay, so I guess I found something to say. I will rap it up.

Congratulations to all who landed in the green. Well done.

Onward and upward.

Famous first words as Glen then goes on to write a post length comment :)

We are at a lucky point in time where we can monitise talking about anything, even if it's the same topic as yesterday - and so that is what many do. The tokens are there to be snatched, this wont be forever and so if you can manage to create and discuss on repeat, this is the time to be doing so. But I understand, it's not for everyone.

Thank you for the comments regarding the leagues. I have tried to make them ever-present and as fair as possible (with your help and others too) and I'm happy that each week the turnout is good.

Apologies for taking so long to get round to this one, it's now time to produce this weeks 'results'.

Thanks again

Asher
