RE: The Curation and Engagement Leagues 🏆 - STEEM prizes available! 🎁

in #engagement6 years ago

Hey, @abh12345.

I'm feeling a little... not sure what here. Maybe I should just ask a question. My understanding is, you're trying to better promote the leagues through the use of a few bots. How's that going? Last comment I saw on it was you weren't sure if it was that effective, but I see you're doing it again.

Also, I've noticed that a few people have started to use ocdb. It looks like you need to be whitelisted to get a vote, but the manual curation trail that used to exist doesn't any more. So, while it calls itself a curation bot, it looks like people still need to throw STEEM at it, like any bidbot. So, I'm trying to understand the difference here.

Regardless of that, I'm grateful for the leagues, even if I didn't manage much this last week.

Congratulations to everyone for their participation and placing.

Maybe someday, someone will go after the top spot again. The girls seem to be all happy about this week's results.

Hey Glen

Yes I've been sucked in to trying to promote the post with bots, my justification is that the post is worth extra visibility and can be of help to new people finding there way. I've not scrolled through all the comments as yet though and so if there are no more newcomers as there are in a week without 'promotion', I will probably lay off.

OCDB is much the same as the rest of them, the main differences being that there is nothing creamed off for the owner/s, and there is a white-list. So yes, if you are not down with bots, then I think OCDB should fall into the same category.

6 of the first 8 are ladies, and so a good result there for them if you slice it that way. I'll be likely falling away when I start work and so the current reigning champ might be up there alone with girls in coming weeks.

Have a good week, I shall likely see you around :)

re: post promotion, ocdb, ladies.

Okay.

re: work

I guess I missed that post. So, you have a job then? UN? Doing what you were doing before, or something else?

Yes I do! And yes at the same place in Valencia. I feel pretty lucky to have been accepted back after leaving of my own accord. Hopefully I can settle back in quickly, do a decent job, and collect some fiat ready for the next move in this crazy market we are a part of.

The post title didn't really scream 'I have a job' :)

Hunh. I think I saw that post. I guess I didn't make it all the way through, or maybe I did and forgot. Anyway. Congratulations! I can tell it's not what you really have your heart in, but that it's what you probably need right now. I might be doing the same thing—finding a job, probably not in Valencia or for the UN—I'm just as much depending on me, since my wife has been working for the last few years.

I hope all goes well with it, and that you're able to make the moves you want to.

I think this puts you in the vicinity of dragosroua, who moved to Valencia a couple months ago, I think (maybe less).

You are correct with regards to it not being exactly what I want, but I am looking forward to it nonetheless.

I've already been contacted by a few Steemians who will be there and this is something to look forward to. Cheers for the dragosroua mention, I will take a look over there.
