Weekly Update 3

SP Tops 2300 As @fulltimegeek Helps Support His SOG Members!

Week 3 saw a nice jump in SP (roughly 50% gain). First, @fulltimegeek gave his #stewardsofgondor a huge boost by fully upvoting last weeks post (again), and that along with the other votes, provided money to lease even more SP for the account. It is significant in my opinion that FTG is increasing the earnings of this account since its purpose is to provide more support to the #stewardsofgondor members. While the vote values have dropped across the board, this account is still casting at least a $0.07 on each and every post and that doesn't include the votes joining us on our curation trail.

Our SP has reached the 2300 SP level which is yielding a $0.30 total upvote (up $0.04 depite the massive drop in STEEM for the week). So each SOG member will get 22% of that on each post ($0.07). (see chart 1) That doesn't include the curation trail upvotes from steemauto which is now at 27 followers (+1) but slipped to #92 in the top rankings. (see chart 2)
Tell your friends about what we are doing for the #stewardsofgondor, we want the program to continue to grow and support the many things the SOG members are doing.
Also I want to point out that the donations have continued to be amazing, we have had steady contributions from SOG members themselves and from newbies/minnows that are showing their support for you. This week topped over $10 sbds again as @howtostartablog @lynncoyle1 @amariespeaks @smylie2005 @abh12345 all donated generously (ps in the last 4 cases they are all repeat donors). This has enabled us to lease SP to be able to give you the upvotes and support while @fulltimegeek is taking care of protecting the system against greed.
Finally in addition to the generous donations, three "friends of gondor" also contributed by delegating their own SP to the account. @simplymike re-delegated her 100SP delegation. Also @ironshield donated 51 SP to the cause to show his support. And @em3 owner of the @healthy-home curation account has stepped up and delegated 175 SP to help everyone for 10 days, plus he wants to show his support by also giving the account a long term 12 week lease (at below market rates no less) to show his approval for what @fulltimegeek is doing!

This Weeks Payment On Posts Today (~$18 sbd)

fog update 3b.JPG

Today we will receive the 3rd weekly payout since the launch of this program. The payout should be $18 sbd to the account tonight and it will be used to lease even more SP.
Now that we hit the 1000 SP mark we are leasing the SP for a longer period of time. Instead of the initial 4 weeks, we are now increasing the total duration of the portfolio by adding in longer dated leases. This will have a stabilizaton effect and provide for less fall off once the early leases expire. 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 are now lengthening the leases from 4 weeks to 8 to 13 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"

Awewome to see this effort grow and the support you are able to give! I know the Stewards of Gondor greatly appreciate what you are doing here!

Peace

This is awesome @em3!!

It has got me to thinking that maybe I can do the same thing. Let me see if I can reach @friendsofgondor on steem.chat

That would be very cool @public-eye !!

Let me know if you need help doing the delegation.... You know what, I will email you the info...that will be easiest!!

Peace

Thank you very much for that!!!

Wololo!

(RandoHealer has healed this post because you have been randomly selected from the whitelist. Lucky!)

ANd it does look like I will be chipping in very shortly! Yay! Happy to help out!

Live strong, Govern well, oh Stewards of Gondor! The Friends of Gondor salute you!

Thanks for the assist here @health-home! I appreciate it very much! :)

we will be good to go on Sunday after the post pays out... just letting you know! ;)

I just sent the delegation!! It ended up being 277 SP!

I'll try to catch you on chat tonight or next day or two! Thanks so much, I really hope this helps out!

Hey @public-eye I don't normally go on steem.chat (discord keeps me busy lol)... But I will go connect with you right there right now... I am davemccoy in that world and if you are on discord you can get me at davemccoy#2479.

I would love to talk to you and of course work with you in any way that helps the SOG :)

Thank you for reaching out! :)

Thanks again @em3... Its very good to see you step up and help everyone too! That is very cool what you did and I will make sure people know! Peace to you too!

I am thinking of maybe doing the same thing..... I need to figure a few things out first. I have never actually delegated before. Are you on steem.chat?

I connect with you on steem.chat.. I will leave it open the rest of the night... If I miss you just let me know if you also use discord or not. Thanks @public-eye!

I got on steem.chat but too late I guess. I left all the messages there.... let me know when you get a chance, THX

I will check it right now... :)

Awesome!

@em3 is very cool like that!!!

And "friends of Gondor"....I like that! It is cool and looks like pretty helpful too!! Keep it up! XD

thank you very much @homescoolkidz :) ... I love the name too btw... and yes @em3 is very cool to do this! :D

Nice job once again Dave :) Such a good cause! and I feel like we are helping a 'fight', but in a very positive way. That as you know, is really important to me, because negativity simply breeds more of the same, and it's really something I don't need more of :)

signed....your little ray of sunshine, farmgirl in Mexico haha

(oh, btw, check your wallet; there's a little more coming your way for our @friendsofgondor)

haha.. that you are! A ray of sunshine lol ;)

And thank you very much (again) for your contribution! That is very generous and definitely noticed! :)

haha thought you'd get a kick outta that ;)

And it was my pleasure!! Thanks for taking care of all the numbers stuff that goes along with it. Let me know if you need some assistance understanding my technical- financial talk there too ;)

It's time and me to make a small contribution to the development of this account. Good luck to you and Love.

Пора и мне сделать небольшой вклад в развития Этого аккаунта. Удачи Вам и Любви.

Thank you very much @cranium and that is a very nice contribution indeed. I'm happy to see your support and I'm sure @fulltimegeek and the #stewardsofgondor appreciated it very much! I know I do!!!

Its a pleasure to be involved in such a good cause! Thank all of you for doing what youre doing! Keep up the good fight!

@smylie2005 I love that you are supporting this.. You have given so much relative to your size that I think you deserve the golden heart medal :) ... Thank you so much for your "continued" contributions!!!

Aw, well thank you! Its all worth it in my eyes! Youre most welcome :)

completely agree.. and maybe the word spreads too ;)

Like a wildfire, hopefully!

hahaha.. yes :)

Hopefully with the state of steem, and the ongoing fight things will improve on that front. The last two days I haven't seen it on the trending or hot page, so an effect must be happening.

I agree @bashadow! Maybe the price drop will have some consequences and help this quest in ways not thought of!

I wish more people were visiting the post..... A few 'thank you' tips were sprinkled around for all of the friends of Gondor!!

And a few more. But mine are tiny compare to yours h-h.

hey @justncase... that is great... No sign of appreciation can ever be tiny in my opinion! So thank you very much, it is appreciated more than you realize! :)

Thank you very much for that @healthy-home... I agree with you very much that the 'thank you' tips go a long way. I particularly think it is important to thank the non-SOG members that are helping just because they support @fulltimegeek and the #stewardsofgondor... I have seen some amazing contributions from newbies and minnows and I'm so proud of them too!

You are amazing for thinking of helping in this way and I thank you from all of us for the thought! :)
