The Curation and Engagement Leagues 🏆

curatorcat (67) 5 years ago

Been a while since I have looked in here... glad to see the leagues are still going strong @abh12345! And thanks for doing this for everyone; it definitely does help keep me interested.

Congrats to @dswigle for the win this week... definitely a very worthy community member!

Just returning to this arena myself after a somewhat lengthy absence ("life," and all that rot...) and hoping to spend a little more time again, in the weeks and months ahead. Still figuring out what to do about all these new tribes/tokens...

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Hey! Thank you so much! It is my first and probably only time to get to the top rung, but, it sure was fun seeing it!

And now, I can retire into oblivion.

Oh, those tribes and tokens are going to drive me to drink!!! Thank you again and have a most wonderful week ahead!

Hey, that's lovely, thank you, @bengy and @abh12345. I believe this is the highest I have ever been in the leagues (I'm usually paddling around the lower reaches) and to be on a lucky number as well, I'm very happy :)

bashadow (65) 5 years ago

looks like it was a pretty nice week, congratulations to everyone. Nice to see that :

382 accounts earned a score this week (372 last time)

Ten more than last week, so the price of steem is not keeping people away. I think that is a good number. I need to keep better track of the weeklies, I have been enjoying tracking things lately.

Once again, thanks to everyone for all the engagement on steem block chain, it is nice to see post with comments, it makes for interesting reading some times.

$0.04

abh12345 (76) 5 years ago

375-390 has been the average for a while now, so I don't think we'll drop much lower. Lots of room for growth though.

Cheers @bashadow :)

$0.00

bashadow (65) 5 years ago

It is nice to see the activity increase. Always room for more growth, it will be interesting to see that particular number when the price of steem recovers. It seems that you have added a lot of new names in the last 6 months, and that was all during depressed price times, so it is nice to see all the activity taking place.

$0.00

abh12345 (76) 5 years ago

Yes it will. I would say 2/3 people a week are coming in. It's not great but not terrible either considering the current state of play.

roleerob (66) 5 years ago

Looks like, for this week anyway, comment count is down but character count is up. More meaningful comments / replies @abh12345? 🤔 Hard to say, perhaps, but I particularly enjoy engaging with those who put obvious time and effort into what they write in them.

And votes cast are way down … 😞

An SBI share has been registered for our ”Hot Pink” winner this week - @tarazkp. Good to see you back “in the pink” sir! Congratulations to all of this week’s winners, which is everyone! As well as those who got some prizes … 😉

Thank you for putting this together @abh12345. "Onward and upward" into a new week!

$0.04

abh12345 (76) 5 years ago

The comments could be more meaningful - although that is a very difficult metric to assess :)

I actually removed a hefty vote placer this week - the account is a curation account which votes automatically and 5000+ times each week.

Taraz has landed in the pink a couple of times now? Well if the colour suits... :)

Thank you for the sponsorship @roleerob!

$0.00

roleerob (66) 5 years ago (edited)

Yes, agreed @abh12345, "more meaningful" is very difficult to measure via code. Or maybe impossible ... Oh wait! AI can handle it ... 😉

On upvoting, what are your thoughts on the effect of HF21 on upvoting comments / replies? I have always found that worthwhile, but find others less interested ... I value your opinion. Thanks!

tarazkp (80) 5 years ago

Thanks for running this Asher,

And congrats to @johannpiber for being 10th in the league this week as 10th is only a 0 away from first, and 0 is nothing.

I added a secondary set of SBI

abh12345 (76) 5 years ago

Thank you very much :D

0 is nothing ... I like the way you think, and I thank you very much for the SBI 😊

Congrats, @dwigle and @joelsegovia, and of course to everyone else up there at the top of the list.

It's funny to soo how that list is starting to look like a coloring book for grown-ups. The fact that you are running out of colors is starting to show, @abh12345, lol ;0)

I had not expected to be in the list this week. To my big surprise, i did find my name in 35th place. I really wonder where I made those 70 comments, since I can recall no more than 20 or so. For all I remember, I haven't been Steeming when drunk, haha.

Anyway, we're almost back home, so I can prepare for a new week of fullon commenting and replying :0)

Engaging when drunk on the blockchain still counts it seems :D

I look forward to seeing you in the top 10 next time - no pressure of course!

simplymike (67) 5 years ago

Lol. I'm not sure I'm going to make it this week (spent too much time on SM).

But now i feel like having a beer. Since engaging when drunk seems to count anyway, I might just treat myself to one. Or two; And who knows where that'll end. Still got the house to myself until Sunday, so might as well throw a little solo-party over here.

Thanks for the great idea, Asher 😂😂

Thank you so much, Asher, for making this all possible and honestly, it was a huge surprise to me, but, it was the great response I had with the posts this week on the Wild Pony Swim week here. A lot of comments = a lot of engagement. But, I will take it! And thank you for the Steem!

Congratulations to all! Anyone here is already a winner! Congratulations to @joelsegovia and of course, @tattoodjay for their stellar performances in securing those top spots and @brittandjosie, @chireerocks, @veryspider, @wakeupkitty, @abh12345, @baah, and @johannpiber! Bravo, people! Go forth and engage often.

Lastly, Congratulations to the lucky #9 @Baah - you will be getting a prize from me in a minute or three!

I sometimes wonder if people read them! LOL :) Thank you so much, you are so very kind. xo

wakeupkitty (76) 5 years ago

Why shouldn't they read them?

It is what I try to do first and the last thing I do (end of the day) read all comments and answer. I know not many answer or it's only short. Might be it takes them too much time, but I think it is also something you have to learn, how to respond. It is not always easy to answer, find the right words to express feelings and thoughts.

You are a very kind person yourself snd share a lot, it is something many have to get used to too.
I hope somehow more people will comment and answer. It makes steem better and is necessary for engagement and having a good time here.

😘

dswigle (70) 5 years ago (edited)

Oh, you are so sweet~!!

What I meant was some people look at how long some of the comments are and don't have time to read them or ask me if I wrote a book. :) To be fair, comments don't have to be long, but, it is always fun to get comments.

And if I don't, it doesn't bother me, but, if nobody commented back, where would the engagement be?

wakeupkitty (76) 5 years ago

To be honest I do not think Discord is the plance to engage to others.
To me it is a noisy chat box where it is hard to ask something. Mainly the same people talk. It makes me feel unwelcome and uncomfortable. Next to it it might be a FAQ but I can never find what I am looking for.

My connection is slow so it is harder to sign in there as here.

If it comes to long comments.. A book.. I understand what you mean.
Many here are no writers or readers. Most of them might have never read 10 books (or one) in their entire life. Language will be a barricade too.

And there is a group that just wants to post, no matter what. Still I think they read your comments since they like to know too if a human is reading it or just the bots pay them a visit.

🤔 You know what?
You can publish a book (Engagement in silence or One way engagement) about commenting and start each next comment with: I am writing a book and your comment will be a part of it.
It will be a great Christmas present 😁
