Weekly Update 15

Holding 6000 SP Nicely And Another Nice Delegation!

source

Week 15 was another good week as we managed to get our delegations for SP filled on the market this week to more than make up for what we lose each week as the older delegations roll off. Plus we received another nice 250 SP delegation from @taskmaster4450. Our plan to hold the 6000 threshold was bolstered by both as we ended the week with almost 6500 SP!

As mentioned, the new 250 SP delegation from SOG member @taskmaster4500 comes with no strings attached and was a major bump for our efforts this week! Thank you for the help @taskmaster4500, once again you (and others) show your support to the program that @fulltimegeek set up!. Also on the upvote side we did get some nice upvotes again (which will help us get a good start on this week's delegations), in particular @fulltimegeek returned with his big upvote! Thank you again @fulltimegeek, it is really motivating to have you paying attention!!! Combined, the votes and the new delegation will definitely help us this week to continue to stay ahead of the curve. This week we saw a slight dip in our vote values to roughly $0.23 per post per steward (-$0.02), and that is entirely due to the nasty drop in steem.

During the week we received 4 additional donations, as the donations continued to roll in this week! We had 1 new donor @afifa who donated 1 sbd and 2 more repeat donations from @four20 1 sbd and @preparedwombat 1 steem. All 3 are non- SOG members and it shows very much the passion that @fulltimegeek still carries even to this day! Finally we had another donation from repeat SOG member @abh12345 of 1.0 steem. Great job on the donations to all of you and a big big thanks!

Also of note this week we had yet another way that people have decided to help! SOG member @davedickeyyall decided to pay for a membership of this account to @steembasicincome! So our weekly post will get a lifetime upvote as a result and its yet another way people to show respect for the Stewards of Gondor by helping the account to grow! Thanks for the creative giving @davedickeyyall!

Don't forget who we are helping, this is the full list of SOG members supporting FTG: @fulltimegeek @abh12345 @allseeingewe @buddy67 @c0ff33a @carlgnash @cbanks @cecicastor @cheneats @coolguy123 @cranium @crimsonclad @dakini5d @davedickeyyall @defango @drakos @einarkuusk @fabiyamada @flauwy @frankbacon @geekpowered @goldendawne @greenrun @hendrix22 @hitmeasap @howtostartablog @inquiringtimes @kryptokayden @kubbyelizabeth @leighstewy @lifttheveil411 @lukebrn @luming @lyndsaybowes @marxrab @mikepm74 @old-guy-photos @openmic @orcheva @originalsimulant @quitefrankly @realtreebivvy @reko @samiwhyte @skycae @somethinfishy @spiritualmax @taskmaster4450 @theuxyeti @votovzla @wisewoof @yagoub

This Weeks Payment On Posts Today (~$14 sbd)

Tonight we will receive the 15th weekly payout since the launch of this program. The payout will be $14 sbd, and it, along with any donations will be used to initiate new leases if the rates stay so favorable. The goal will be to add more new 13 week leases to replace the expiring 13 week leases each week that come due!

We have successfully built up and stabilized our account, and now we should provide a steady and growing upvote if we continue to get your support. The goal is to give the SOG members a real benefit and with your continued efforts to support us, we will continue to build the SP and curation trail.

Thank you all for your generous support!

As mentioned earlier these new donations and earnings of sbd from posts will be reinvested to grow the SP so that the SOG members get a bigger hit to their upvote. We have now started lengthening the leases from 13 to 20 weeks depending on market opportunities.

What you can do if you want to support this project to help @fulltimegeek and his #stewardsofgondor

#1 You can follow what we are doing and tell your followers and friends through various methods

#2 You can upvote our posts to increase the amount of earnings we have to lease more SP

#3 You can follow our curation trail (84th place already) on steemauto and have your upvote show moral support (even 2 or 3% is something that matters because it all adds up)

#4 You can donate directly like the wonderful people above

#5 You can delegate any of your own SP for any period of time that suits you while this Quest is ongoing

#6 Last but not least, you can thank the individual "friends" that are supporting this effort directly. Sometimes just a stop by and a small note saying you appreciate their help will make a big difference to a donor's day!

If you can't do any of the other 5 and you support what we are doing, then #6 is a very very effective way to help us. It encourage them to spread the word and rewards their efforts with "respect"
