I don't remember your other account and I was there through most of steemgar. It's a pity it stopped. Like you said.....
Steemgar is fun as hell! I haven't played in a while, but those upvotes really helped us out in the early days on myaccount.
Absolutly true. If it wasn't for that I might not still be here. Still there are lots of other things developing now to keep us entertained. Some of them are bound to take off.

Couldn't agree with you more. I was around april/may this year, that we found out about steemgar and we stopped because the payouts started getting smaller and smaller. :( But! Thankfully there were so many other side projects going on (whaleshares, steemmonsters, etc) that I could see budding potential literally everywhere and so here we are today.lol Time will tell, but I'm definitely optimistic about what the future holds for this platform & crypto in general. :)
If only you were there at the very start when the payouts were $2-$4 for each winner. That was the very beginning though and didn't last for very long. Back the there were only about three players who won pretty much all the games but they made a few hundred in those couple of weeks. Not bad for playing a game. It's a pity it's gone, even just for the fun side of it but as you said there are so many other projects that you can get involved in and some that you can earn a bit too.
My baby at the moment is the engagement and curation league. It charts accounts over a variety of engagement categories and has a weekly league for it. There are some prizes for the best participants and you tend to earn a bit while competing too. I've noticed the difference since i joined it and have seen my account grow a lot more rapidly than it ever had before.
