The Minnow Power-up League
Every Thursday we will be using SteemSQL database managed by @arcange to gather details on the Owned SP for each person that has entered the league. The current weekly owned SP will be compared to the SP held last week. The person with the highest SP growth for the current week will be on top of the leader board.
There are 4 levels depending on your SP levels. Once you graduate from one, you will be automatically placed on the next. When you graduate from the 4th you will be placed on the Minnow Wall of Fame. As this post could get rather long with the 4 levels, as we grow, we may consider splitting this into different posts on different days.
Level 1
Congratulations to @fullcoverbetting being first in the league this week with a massive power up of 102.224 SP.
In second is @roadtohorizon and third is @brittandjosie. Well done the both of you!
Also in the top ten is @heyimsnuffles, @giddyupngo, @lynncoyle1, @stever82, @dalz, @guchtere and @mango-juice. Well done on the Power-ups, if you bought STEEM I hope you got a good price :-)
On the home stretch in level 1 are @lynncoyle1, @dalz, @tamaralovelace and @isnochys, you are so close to graduating from level 1, Steem on!
Level 2
There are now 23 participants on level 2, and this weeks winner is @macoolette with an amazing SP growth of 782.248 this week.

That's it for this week, cheers all!
You guys!
Honestly I don't know why you aren't the number 1 witness on Steem! Literally no one else cares about the actual voters more than you two! I can't think of many witnesses that give back as much as the two of you... I think if you had a witness node up and running in the early days, not only would you be unshakably number 1, but you would have changed the entire premise of what a witness does.
Thanks again for another incredible week! I still can't get over all these numbers... this group is doing fantastically!
haha - I'll send you the STEEM for this comment soon ;) Amazingly kind comment, I want to resteem it!
Thank you!
i'd like to join in and I'm asking the rest of the steeminati to except our ghpb who already has 5000 steem....
I also just littered a bunch of upvotes!
Encouraging to see these numbers grow by these amounts! 100k over time is an Orca being nutured and 5k a week is a new dolphina week. Creating distribution for more is a great trend to see continue! Imagine how this ecosystem will flourish when prices rise again!

This is how you encourage growth done right. 100k steem between 100 people is huge numbers. It's project like this we need to see a lot more of that encourage smaller users to grow and be active.

100K in 16 weeks is amazing, so glad you both like the project. My witness partner took a a hard time this week and was told @steemcommunity witness had no purpose. So thank you very much for this because we do try hard and its comments like this that keep up motivated
Anybody who says that is talking out of their arse. @steemcommunity witness does some of the most important work on STEEM for us non tech people. It encourages users to interact and grow which is the whole basis of the eco system. Without the tools, leadership and motivation that you provide to the community it would be a much quieter place around here. And even better you have posts and stats which prove the community that you are working with is growing and thriving.
💕 💖 💓
Thank you buddy, very kind of you to say so!
Hi Asher and Paula. Good to see consistent growth over all the tables again this week. Bit disappointed as my target was 150 SP and you pulled the stats too early. Doesn't matter as it carries over to next week now and looking at Steemworld that target has been achieved already.Thanks again for doing this and congratulations to everyone for another good week.
sorry, I tend to pull them late on a wednesday night, sometimes on a thur morning. Nice to see you are setting your self targets and 130 is amazing, let alone 150
I gathered you pulled them early lol.Not to worry they just go on next weeks tally.Setting targets is the only way to justify the hours spent on here.Thank you for the work you put into this as it is appreciated.
Still 130sp isn't bad work for the week. Keep it growing and you will be in the top league in no time.

Hi niallon. You are right and I am not complaining at all. We are all hard on each other here and this table pushes us even more.
I know. I miss the challenge of growing and trying to top the league. My growth has actually slowed a lot since I'm not pushing myself as much. I need a challenge and a goal to get back to it again.

Just set a weekly target and increase it every week.If you get close it doesn't matter as you are achieving better than normal then.I have tried to increase by 5% per week so next week is 160 SP or as close as possible.
I've decided to go big on that score. I'm going to push for 10k SP buy next year. I need to break down the figures and targets per week but it's not going to be easy. A couple of hundred a month roughly. It will give me something to work towards anyway or if STEEM prices drop again a quick purchase.
You should do it easily and with purchasing you should add that on to the final figure. Aim for at least 5000 SP in one year excluding purchasing Steem.
Thanks :)
150 SP for the week is a solid target, I many would be happy with half that!
I agree and that is what it has come down to.Once you get into a routine that works you have to just stick to it.
Agreed. Glad you found one that works for you. Still impressed that you have these numbers as a guide each week - must be doing something right!
Thanks Asher. I have noticed others don't seem to formulate a plan and stick to it.
Very cool, just barely beat out @scrawly to take second place. Love this effort that is being made by @steemcommunity. By showing the growth over time and of others it allows us to have some fun comparing how we stack up against other who are the same size as us.
Congrats to everyone who powered up last week, not just the winners. As a group we are becoming more powerful week after week. A much needed middle class is coming to steemit...I see so many signs of this.
Thanks for the supportive comment dude!
We really hope those involved here become a part of the future middle-class. With a bit of luck and SP accumulation, the future could be very bright for all concerned.
Thank you for your continued efforts for making the Steem blockchain a better place. With the different leagues you run it encourages the right types of behaviors. Besides these efforts you are a positive voice around steemit who keeps a level head. Wish more of our witnesses were making serious sincere efforts towards improving Steem.
Thank you! I'm always glad that this powerup league exists to motivate me accumulating my Steem Power ^_^.
thank you so much @scrawly
Nice work @fullcoverbetting. That's some good gains made in one week.

I am not complaining at all :)
I am 4 four weeks a head of schedule for the moment. Hope that I can keep it this way. I am aiming at an increase of 25 SP per week.
We all have to profit from this ridiculous low prices!
It's great right now. Everything i post is earning a few STEEM. Even my actifit is getting about 2 STEEM per day plus their own tokens. I'm using most of it to strengthen my steemmonsters deck right now but even that is useful for the tournaments.
Still haven’t played a tournament!
Too busy tryong to reach Diamond II. Probably will not reach it but I can try.
Doubting between powering up or strengthening my steemmonsters collection!
Really should lift my summoners to level 5. But that will cost a lot!
Also some lower mana cards I should lift to level 5!
Though decisions have to be made 🤔
4 weeks ahead of schedule, nice one, wish I could do that :-)
Maybe my targets are just too low 😁
Thanks @steemcommunity for the Steemmonster pack. I did swap some other crypto for steem because I did want to power up my steemmonster but decided to also power some up.
Very happy with that decision. Now I did get an booster pack for free!
Cheers,
Peter
Congratulations Peter. delighted to hear you are making good decisions
Me too. The booster pack was a pleasant surprise!
Darn! I thought I caught up for level 3 with my power up. It is either you pulled the stats early or I am slow. 😂
And yay! I got a monsters pack again. Thank you @steemmonsters! Maybe I should learn to play huh? 😄
Thanks to @paulag and @abh12345 for continously tracking this. And congratulations to everyone for continued progress! 👍😊
I pulled the query late last night so I could get the post out early. Dont worry, it will be included in next weeks. Congratulations anyway, you did awesome
Oh, no worries. I was just playing cute. 😄 Thanks again!
Yes you should learn soon :D Well done!
I started reading the FAQs and I stopped half way. It's not registering in my head. 😂
I have to work very hard to accomplish the target of crossing 1500 SP mark. I am just in the middle of the journey.
Slow and steady is good enough, good luck for 2019 :)
