RE: The Curation and Engagement Leagues - Sponsored by @carlgnash and @paulag!

Congratulations @johndoer123! What an awesome week you've had! It's pretty tough to beat @glenalbrethsen, that's for sure!

That's a good question asking @abh12345 where to see the list of witnesses; he is my proxy as well, and I've often wondered the same but keep forgetting to ask :)

Sort:  

I would have had trouble pointing you in the right direction until recently, but the link I've given John works well! :D https://steemian.info/whovotes

It does! and might I say, Nice Work Asher :)

Apparently, I'm the immovable/unstoppable force now. Kind of hard to beat something like that. :) Not sure I'm feeling like either. All it's going to take is someone with as much time as I have, who types faster (not hard) and who knows Steemit better or who knows where to find posts faster. Oh, some higher character counts. I keep hearing about how that's supposed to help. :)

Well, whatever combination of things you're doing Glen, it's working well for you, and frankly, I'm no longer trying to keep up. haha

The competitive side of me, which I try to keep under control (and mostly succeed now) is thrilled with the idea that you're not trying to keep up, while the doubt side of me (which I mostly control, too) wonders if a) you're just saying that you're not trying but really using reverse psychology, and b) that if you can basically stay in the Top 5 without even trying, I should just give up now. :)

However, the relatively rational and trusting sides of me (which I usually allow them to do their thing) say there's enough on your plate at any given time that Steemit and specifically the leagues, while fulfilling, satisfying and somewhat a distraction, is secondary to the welfare and well-being of yourself and Brian, and that I have no reason to not take you at your word.

So, that said, I just have 299-plus other people to be concerned with. :)

hahaha I was and am being sincere, but now that you say this,

b) that if you can basically stay in the Top 5 without even trying, I should just give up now. :)

I must admit there's some truth to it. I do try, but am always surprised when I see my standing in the league :)

Worry about the other 299 haha and consider me one of them maybe too :)

I don't even know who all those folks are. :) Oh, well. Just got to keep doing what I do and see what happens. It's bound to come to an end at some point.

I like it when things turn out better than expected. It means that there is still good in the world. :)

I'm a firm believer in the abundance of good in this world...just gotta look past some of the junk to see it :)

FThanks for the congratulations. You did very well too all things considered. So congratulations to you as well. I'm praying that the week is good for you.

Thank you @johndoer123; it is my escape among a lot of other things too! I appreciate your kinds words as always!

Beating @glenalbrethsen is not hard. It is impossible to my opinion. By the way @lynncoyle1 you were on top five if i am not mistaken. Great news. Keep it up

haha I think you're right about @glenalbrethsen! And thank you for the compliment :)

You are welcome. You deserve it. I envy most of you guys. It makes the competition extremely difficult.

Don't envy us; we were all once exactly in the same place you are @triplef. Time, perseverance, genuine commenting, and caring will get you where you want to go. You do all of those already, so it's just the time it takes to get there now! Don't focus on what you don't have buddy...it's a waste of time and energy :)
