The Curation and Engagement Leagues ๐Ÿ† - STEEM prizes & steem-bounty available! ๐ŸŽ

in #engagement โ€ข 5 years ago

Welcome to this weeks Engagement and Curation leagues, kindly sponsored by the awesome @curie! Well, at least I hope it is! Should be all set for more sponsorship at the start of next month, phew!



Would you like to enter the leagues? Make a comment below (this is for a lifetime membership - you will need to ask to be removed)

The league tables are reset each week and so any time is a good time to join!

On your marks, get set, curate!

The Engagement League - Sponsored by @curie



This league is not based around financial rewards and relates to engagement.

Everyone currently on my master list has a chance here - including those powering down or dealing in delegations over the past couple of weeks.

I've used some metrics (which is the fancy way of saying that made up some numbers) relating to:

  • Posts (P)
  • Comments - number of (C)
  • Number of people spoken to (PS)
  • Comments - replies to replies - depth > 2 (C R)
  • Comments - length in characters (C L)
  • Witness votes (W) (for those proxying witness votes, your total is always 30)
  • Up-votes to others (V)
  • Up-votes to different authors (U V)
  • Self-votes - a small minus score for this one, sorry! (S V)




Firstly, if you are placed in the table above then you among the top 25% of the league entrants!

Congratulations to this weeks Engagement League winner, @smithlabs! ๐Ÿ†

@janton's partner in crime takes the top prize as @janton is currently declining rewards (and still topping the list!), nice one @smithlabs!

@veryspider moves up a few places for a very commendable 2nd place!

And @steemflow is 3rd this week, good score there!

Excellent engagement levels also from @melinda010100, @scrawly, @newageinv, @glenalbrethsen, @brittandjosie, @chireerocks, and @bengy who will all be receiving some STEEM this week.

The SteemFest attendees are not present in the top ten as they were last week :p

Those without a self-vote (from their main account at least! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ) and placed in the top ranks will also receive a little STEEM. These people are: @macoolette, @steevc, @xcountytravelers, @cryptoandcoffee, @mariannewest, @dreemsteem, @themanwithnoname, @erikah, @ernesto-guzman, and @niallon11.

Well done everyone!


The Curation League / Rewards based

Please find the rules in a previous post.

The end column is what I think is a genuine indicator of how well you are financially working the curation game with the tools, including vested Steem Power, that you have at your disposal.

Congratulations again @dedicatedguy!

Thanks for the Steem prize, and I got #25! It's been a bit slower for me recently. It seems like the whole blockchain is a bit slower since HF20. I doubt the low Steem price is helping, although ironically it's so much easier to get Steem right now.

Congrats to @janton, @smithlabs, and @veryspider for killing it at the top. You all are probably doing a majority of the engagement on the whole blockchain. Ha ha. Good job!

Thanks @abh12345 for running the numbers once again! And thanks to @curie for their generous sponsorship!

I'm still waiting for my first 25, maybe this week!

@curie have recently sent another 8 weeks sponsorship, that'll take us to Christmas :D

Hey, @abh12345.

I probably should go and reply to your reply from my comment on last week's engagement and curation league post first, but I'm kind of in the habit of coming here to start the week off. As it is, since you probably won't see this comment until later this week (no worries, eitherโ€”I know I'm always late to the party and there's certainly other things to do), and no one else is likely to see it, either (unless I tag a bunch of people), I think it will turn out just fine.

Thank you for continuing this league. You could easily move on to something else, like STEEM Monsters Play League, where you keep track of the number of times people play (NTPP), how many wins (HMW), unique opponents (UO) and repeat opponents (RO), and then points for (PF) and points against (PA). Since STEEM Monsters are all the rage and everything, I wouldn't blame you if you did. It's caught the imagination of many a STEEM user here, and between that and lower STEEM prices, well, maybe it's time to accommodate more than just engagement on this platform.

Because when you've got STEEM Monsters, who needs engagement (as much). Am I right? Who's with me?

Personally, since there's not much engagement, anyway, for whatever reasons, I've gotten used to and rather enjoy starting conversations and then maybe hearing from some but mostly not from others. It's great. It's like I got in the first AND last word. Harder to start an argument that way.

Anyway, all sarcasm aside, I do wish you well in all your endeavors this week, and I do thank you for the leagues, and also @curie for continuing to sponsor them.

Congratulations to everyone in green, blue and gold(?). @themanwithnoname, it's about time you were Lucky 25. Just saying. :)

Onward and upward.

Well Glen, I'm going to surprise you this week with a prompt reply :)

Nice idea re:steemmonsters, but as a lot of the players are running script (today's update may put a stop to that for a little while at least), the numbers aren't really worth much to me.

I don't blame folks for spending less time here right now - less new joiners, more leavers. I'm looking at some stats re: Posts/Comments, per application, trying to wring out some growth areas. Partiko looks promising early doors.

I'm hoping curie continue, this one was on me as the month isn't up. I think they will this time, but it wont be the case forever. Anyway, many of the accounts placed in the top 20 at any point this year are still here, and have grown a lot - faster than me in some cases (nice to have fiat at 30 cents :) ).

Thanks for your continued support, Leagues promotion, and activity here and on Steem :)

Okay, who is this and what have you done with the real @abh12345?! :)

So, a lot of people are using their phone to engage with via Partiko? Is that what you're saying? Or are you also saying that Partiko is onboarding people?

Not a big fan of using my phone for much of anything other than maybe texting, calling, and maps, but I know that I am (once again) the dinosaur exception here. Something about liking to see what I'm typing without too much squinting, and actually using fingers instead of thumbs. I know that's not a big deal for others (young eyes, young thumbs).

I kind of missed the part that this round of prizes was on you. Wow. Double thanks for that, then. With curie running their own comment contest, and then C-squared and C-cubed another (seems like it's all kind of the same thing, but notโ€”it's hard to sort out), seems like curie is backing a lot of the engagement that is going on.

Have they given you any indication how long they plan to continue?

I've been enjoying October and November growth-wise. It feels like about time, too, and now of course, I'm wondering when it's all going to come to a halt. Things don't last forever, and then some things get undone prematurely, too.

There still are plenty of people around and on the list, but it seems like the amounts have downshifted, so there's not enough effort needed to stay in the Top 25%. That's just me looking at this week's numbers and vaguely comparing them with weeks past, so I haven't gone and pulled numbers or made comparisons. I just know what I did this week and it was good enough for a top 10 showing even though I barely broke 16,000 points.

:D Got me at a good time - I'm doing anything but sorting this post out.

So, a lot of people are using their phone to engage with via Partiko?

Yes that's the one, it seems to be rising while general engagement numbers are falling.

I think they may do the next 8 weeks, and look for other projects in the new year, but I don't know for sure. And yes, @curie have really helped try to rally engagement these past 6 months.

The points totals have dropped a fair way, I might do a post summarizing the yearly numbers - there is plenty of data to get stuck into.

Cheers!

Noooo... still not on steem monsters!!!!!!

Hey, @riverflows.

I feel your pain, but I'm not sure what you're saying. Is that, 'Nooooo... I'm still not on STEEM Monsters', or is that, 'Noooooooo.... You're still not on STEEM Monsters'?

Either way, I guess, it sounds like a tragedy in the making. :) I'm pretty sure there's still time if it's you. If it's me... at some point I'll try to check it out. My wife isn't very happy about STEEM period, so I'm treading lightly as it is.

Haha my husband has given up on me
... a steem widow. If I take up monsters he will divorce me.

Posted using Partiko Android

Aha, okay. So you and I are in the same STEEM boat, so to speak. :)

As it is, I'm okay with that. Until I can show her some financial gains, she's not going to be happy, and while STEEM is $0.32 USD, there's not anything to show her. I can guarantee she won't get the value of digital playing cards (because I'm not entirely sold on them myselfโ€”I'm concerned about the shelf life of such a thing).

I can just see her staring at you disapprovingly.

I can't believe I did not fall off a cliff here! I have had wifi troubles and was not even online few days. I'm an not sure if I will be able to keep up my comment rate with the new plan I got. I have 25 gigs a month now and I really don't know how to manage this yet. Big sigh - but I will persevere.

I'm so glad you do this for us @abh12345. I know I am not that active in it now, but I recommend you to new people still. This was one of the most helpful places for me when I first got here.

Hanging on, good to see!

25 gigs sounds a lot, and should be plenty if you don't stream/download movies.

Thanks for the continual recommendations, it tells me there is some value here :D

Ah did I self vote? Dammit. Entirely accidental. What fun!! Gosh they come around FAST though!! I can barely keep track!

Posted using Partiko Android

Possibly via a trail, they are pesky things :)

Dammit yeah, I usually go and take off my votes if they appear, must have missed it this week. Never mind, I'm happy to see I'm still up there in the league despite having a down week!

This remains one of the best posts!

Again a nice position in the curation league.

Does it look like your post is getting lesser attention as it did in the past?

Very kind of you to say so sir :)

I think all posts are getting less attention, 75% less comments here than early in the year - price down 90%?

If this is really correlated to the price, then it could soon be over.

Do you, but the way, have a back up plan in case Steem totally dies?

Could be, but until then i'll be here.

Yes, get a job somewhere. Anything going round your neck of the woods? I do good pies :D

Although I still need to read your latest post about searching a job, I wonder what do you precisely mean with your 2 last sentences?

As non native English speaker I don't understand:
"Anything going round your neck of the woods? I do good pies :D"

Partner in crime?! So double trouble? Well done @smithlabs. Wow! @janton is a gem. Wonderful to see such enthusiasm and the pioneering perserverence on Steemit @abh12345

Thank you @buckaroo for your kind words of support for the Engagement Leagues!

It's awesome that this week I'm part of the green line ^_^.

Thank you asher and curie =).

Good stuff, and my pleasure!

oh hey I would love to be part of this and see how poorly I'm doing =) Nice initiative to increase engagement. If only my day had more hours....

Yeah, you'll need lots of hour to make the top 3, but a solid week of getting around Steem with comments and you could get top 20, or even 10 :D

would love to...on the weekends I usually catch up with people =)

Do responses to comments under your own posts count as well?

I think they do, don't see the reason why they shouldn't :) better said, I hope they do hah :D

Posted using Partiko Android

Great to see the engagement & curation leagues continue to go strong despite the fall in price. It is no surprise that most on top of the curation league are not in it just for the money. Keep it up !

Certainly is - motivational stuff seeing that people are still plugging away. Cheers @costanza :D
