Weekly Update 15

Holding 6000 SP Nicely And Another Nice Delegation!

Week 15 was another good week as we managed to get our delegations for SP filled on the market this week to more than make up for what we lose each week as the older delegations roll off. Plus we received another nice 250 SP delegation from @taskmaster4450. Our plan to hold the 6000 threshold was bolstered by both as we ended the week with almost 6500 SP!
As mentioned, the new 250 SP delegation from SOG member @taskmaster4500 comes with no strings attached and was a major bump for our efforts this week! Thank you for the help @taskmaster4500, once again you (and others) show your support to the program that @fulltimegeek set up!. Also on the upvote side we did get some nice upvotes again (which will help us get a good start on this week's delegations), in particular @fulltimegeek returned with his big upvote! Thank you again @fulltimegeek, it is really motivating to have you paying attention!!! Combined, the votes and the new delegation will definitely help us this week to continue to stay ahead of the curve. This week we saw a slight dip in our vote values to roughly $0.23 per post per steward (-$0.02), and that is entirely due to the nasty drop in steem.
During the week we received 4 additional donations, as the donations continued to roll in this week! We had 1 new donor @afifa who donated 1 sbd and 2 more repeat donations from @four20 1 sbd and @preparedwombat 1 steem. All 3 are non- SOG members and it shows very much the passion that @fulltimegeek still carries even to this day! Finally we had another donation from repeat SOG member @abh12345 of 1.0 steem. Great job on the donations to all of you and a big big thanks!
Also of note this week we had yet another way that people have decided to help! SOG member @davedickeyyall decided to pay for a membership of this account to @steembasicincome! So our weekly post will get a lifetime upvote as a result and its yet another way people to show respect for the Stewards of Gondor by helping the account to grow! Thanks for the creative giving @davedickeyyall!

This Weeks Payment On Posts Today (~$14 sbd)

fog update 15a.JPG

Tonight we will receive the 15th weekly payout since the launch of this program. The payout will be $14 sbd, and it, along with any donations will be used to initiate new leases if the rates stay so favorable. The goal will be to add more new 13 week leases to replace the expiring 13 week leases each week that come due!
We have successfully built up and stabilized our account, and now we should provide a steady and growing upvote if we continue to get your support. The goal is to give the SOG members a real benefit and with your continued efforts to support us, we will continue to build the SP and curation trail.

As mentioned earlier these new donations and earnings of sbd from posts will be reinvested to grow the SP so that the SOG members get a bigger hit to their upvote. We have now started lengthening the leases from 13 to 20 weeks depending on market opportunities.

What you can do if you want to support this project to help @fulltimegeek and his #stewardsofgondor

#1 You can follow what we are doing and tell your followers and friends through various methods
#2 You can upvote our posts to increase the amount of earnings we have to lease more SP
#3 You can follow our curation trail (84th place already) on steemauto and have your upvote show moral support (even 2 or 3% is something that matters because it all adds up)
#4 You can donate directly like the wonderful people above
#5 You can delegate any of your own SP for any period of time that suits you while this Quest is ongoing
#6 Last but not least, you can thank the individual "friends" that are supporting this effort directly. Sometimes just a stop by and a small note saying you appreciate their help will make a big difference to a donor's day!

If you can't do any of the other 5 and you support what we are doing, then #6 is a very very effective way to help us. It encourage them to spread the word and rewards their efforts with "respect"

This is really such an admirable project, I have seen in the background what you have done and it is truly in the incredible spirit of @fulltimegeek who I still can never thank or show my appreciation for enough.

While I have been seeing the supportive upvote this account gives me every post, my own schedule of trying to comment and upvote on posts has really stopped me taking full stock. The #Stewardsofgondor is an incredible project, and every single person who carried that delegation did something special for this platform - and still does to this day in their own special way.

I have a little of my own SP free now, and will delegate some to @friendsofgondor to help this account continue giving back to the people that help and support others and keep this platform alive by encouraging and promoting it's incredible content creators.

Thank you for doing this, it forms part of the many reasons I find on a daily basis that sticking with Steem and Steemit is going to be priority in my life moving forward.

This is a very cool comment c0ff33a... I am very honored that you would take the time to write such a nice comment... I agree completely with you about the significance of the stewardsofgondor and I'm happy to do what I can to help keep that program visible because the lessons stretch past the time of his delegations. You are right that the stewards are still doing great things and its because of you guys that I even found out about @fulltimegeek! Thank you very much for the delegation, it is very generous and thoughtful!

Have a wonderful rest of your week and thanks again!

Another successful week and great news about @taskmaster4450 delegating now too! Such a cool idea you came up with Dave, and I'm glad to still be a part of it :)

You will always be a part of it Lynn! You are one of the people that took the time to make a statement all along! You get it... and it is no surprise that you are having much success on the platform and I think you will have much more as even more get to know you! Keep it up and thank you for everything you do :)

Aww thank you @friendsofgondor and Dave! I feel the exact same way about you! 😅

This is an awesome project. Keep up the good job.

Thank you very much @greenrun! It is nice to get the encouragement and to hear the feedback that the project is appreciated! :)

Let's hope that Steem will stop plunging soon!

yes... the plunge got quite steep this week... a 25% drop was a little more than normal and put a crimp in everything across the board! Always nice to know you are reading old-guy-photos! Thanks for coming by :)

Thank you so much for all of your support and good vibes <3 xo You make a difference in my days!

awwww... that is a very nice thing to say Lyndsay! We are thankful for what you endure on a daily basis (and your husband too)... and while many of us don't see the negative parts, you carry that burden for us! So thank you and glad we could help make your day a little brighter!

You all make it very worthwhile, trust me <3 xo We are Tribe!
