Cutting straight to the chase this week to ask - Have any Stewards thought about delegating some of their Steem Power to accounts they have seen doing excellent work in the community?

Now, most of us 'only' have a few thousand of our own Steem Power, but at the same time we've been given between 5000 and 30000 and so perhaps all of us have a little to pass on?

**It may be that some of you are already doing this - let me know if so! **

In addition to the likes of @minnowsupport, @utopian-io, your girlfriend, husband, etc, I thought it might be cool to have some 'junior stewards' in our ranks too.

What do you think?

I'm going to take another look around this week, having recently given a little out to an account steadily making her way up to the Steemit slider mark of 500 SP.

The #stewardsofgondor project, led by Lord of the Steem - theee @fulltimegeek !

If you are not aware, @fulltimegeek, aka Lord of the Steems has delegated almost all of his Steem Power to the accounts in the list below.

If you have received an up-vote from myself, or anyone else on this list over the past few weeks, then you have @fulltimegeek to thank for vastly larger vote you have been gifted.

If you wish to know 'why?' someone would loan out ~~ million dollars~~ (whoops last weeks' text!) TWO million dollars worth of Steem Power, you can find out here.

To the numbers we go!

This week, the Stewards have written a total of 7042 comments and cast 22509 up-votes.

Last week these totals were 7312 and 24373 respectively.

Again, the Christmas period and new year activities may account for the slightly lower interaction numbers - lets see if we can move these up again this next week!

@cecicastor, out on their own with over 500 comments and @taskmaster4450 with over 115,000 characters in his 277 comments in the past 7 days - hail keyboards!

@cecicastor, @stackin, @coolguy123, @howtostartablog, and @hitmeasap, all handing out over 1000 votes this past week - up-vote legends!

@coolguy123 - Master steward of goodwill to all (again!) with over 900 unique Steemians reached with his votes - spread em'!

So Stewards, how do you think you've done this week?

The price of Steem is up about 300% (un-bloody-believable!) since the last post and our vote value is growing by the day.

This means that voting more frequently and with a lower weight can still give a worthwhile boost to those new accounts.

Stewards of Stewards?

As I mentioned earlier, I'm keen on this paying it forward SP thing.

If we can cast 22509 votes in a week, imagine if we all delegated to 5 accounts and they did the same?

120,000+ votes in a week stemming from @fulltimegeek's Steem Power delegations!

Once again, thank you @fulltimegeek for this amazing gift to the community, we cannot thank you enough!

Steem on Stewards, happy 2018!
