OMG @glenalbrethsen! you were on fire.
Congratulations to everyone that made it to the top 20 this weeks, it's a great achievement. Big drop from me this week and will probably continue to fall for a few weeks. But you know me, then all of a sudden i will re-appear in the top 10 again :-)

Hey, @paulag.

Thank you for the shout out and the kind sentiment. I didn't feel so much on fire last week as I felt like I was pushing a boulder up hill. I made it just high enough. I guess that's what counts, right?

re: big drop

That's cool. Not the big drop, but that everything else you're doing on STEEM is put in perspective of where you landed in the Engagement League, as if it had the most importance. I like it. :)

Here I was, thinking I had performed even worse than the last couple of weeks - but maybe everyone else did the same, lol

@cicisaja... I'm not in the green yet, but as I promised a couple of weeks ago: I was coming for you and finally I got you! ;0P

Congratulations to @glenalbrethsen! Woo-hoo!!! I always love getting and seeing a comment from you! Always generous in thoughts and the words chosen. Did I happen to mention that I never miss the message in them? The lesson isn't lost and I appreciate learning a little something by reading you. This is, of course, well deserved! Also to @Tattoodjay and @akomaojong!

Awesome three leading the pack!

And the rest? Congratulations to you!! We are totally rocking this chain! Everyone is a winner!!!

Well, thank you very much, @dswigle, for everything you've said here. :)

It does feel good to be atop the Engagement League again. It's been a while. We're not counting the efforts of a couple folks, though, and it was pretty well bunched up at the top this week, so I'm warming a seat until they, or someone else takes it back. Maybe you? :)

re: thoughts and the words

I give it the best shot I can on as many comments as I can. There are ones where there isn't much to say, and many more where there is no comment at all. But I figure if I'm going to take the time to make one, I should probably say something worthwhile in the process. :)

re: The King

I think you're the only one who calls me that anymore. :) It's good to be back, though. The problem is, staying up there. It's not that easy, and I think the mountain is steeper since the last time I ventured to the top. Not fair, since I'm not getting any younger. :)

Thanks for the mention. Very nice of you. :)

Hey, @tattoodjay.

Thanks for the shoutout and the kind words. Especially since you're the one who's been at the top. As I've been saying elsewhere, this feels like I'm warming someone else's seat until they come get it, so anyway. We just keep on keeping on and we see where it lands us. :)

0.00 BPC

tattoodjay 6 years ago

I was saying he same when I was in the number one spot I was merely keeping the seat warm while I was there, To me the most important thing really is all the people I the top 100 its the interaction that is special on Steemit and makes it such. Wonderful community

0.00 BPC

glenalbrethsen 6 years ago

It definitely is. And we all seem to have our communities and circles we run in too, which makes it even better. We get to come together once a week to see what's going on, and we may bump into each other throughout the week somewhere, but there's always many other people to see what they've done and so forth.

Let's see if this still works.

tattoodjay 6 years ago

Yes it’s natural people tend to relate and interact more with people with similar interests for a good part such as Homesteading communities for some photography for me, art or diet there are so many interests on here,I tend to interact with a lot of other photographers or photo based blogs but also have many in other communities that I have good interaction with I find it broader and more real shallI say on here than on Farccebook or otter social media Platforms

I did not know you could do that with the eagle tokens so thanks :)

0.00 BPC

glenalbrethsen 6 years ago

re: relate and interact

I think you're right. Having access to everyone from tags or however people manage to do it is actually good, rather than needing from blog to page like you might on FB. I mean you can search and scroll through on FB too, I guess, but with the tags, it just seems easier, and then after that, you know who's active and who's posting compelling stuff.

re: eagle tokens

Not sure about the eagle tokens or how they work. These are engage tokens, that Asher created on Steem-Engine a while back and I guess he's got them capable now of being dispensed with comments. That just recently happened. You need to hold 1,000 ENGAGE tokens before it will work, and then you can dispense up to 100 at a time. There's a limit on how many can be given out each day, I believe, so if that limit is hit, there's supposed to be a message that says something to that effect.

0.00 BPC

tattoodjay 6 years ago

One thing you may have noticed is I am terrible for making typos of course I did mean engage tokens, I. Did know about Asher creating them and that I had a few, I didn’t remember how you can use them but now thanks to you I must start giving them out from time to time

The way Facebook filters the feed sometimes Akers it hard to keep up with al that you may want to I created groups for family and friends that I check occasionally but I am nowhere as active on there as I used to be

Taking notes, eh? :)

You're very kind. I hope I'm adding value. It is something I'm trying to do, so I'm glad that you think so. It can be pretty subjective, just like everything else, but I appreciate it.

You've been consistently making the climb yourself, though. No. 3 this week. Congratulations to you. This is where the air starts to get thin, and really, the Top 5 was pretty close together.

0.00 BPC

akomoajong 6 years ago

Yeah, I have always been impressed with your comments on my polls. It has never been just a simple vote, something I see only with @xplosive too.

Sure 💯 you are a huge impact to this platform and I am only trying my best to follow what you and a few others are doing.

This third position came as a surprise though. I think I am happy being at 8th like usually and seeing those I look up to occupy top 5.

glenalbrethsen 6 years ago

Well, thanks again for all of that. You may find yourself being looked up at, too, though. :)

re: impact

There's a lot going on here and I haven't been here nearly as long to feel like I'm having that great of an impact yet, but who knows, over time, maybe there's something to be said for that. Which means, I need to make sure I keep going.

re: polls

I think explaining answers is important. I know plenty of people like to participate, which is good, but for a community to from around dpoll, there needs to be more engagement. I think Musing didn't quite get off the ground because of the lack of engagement, and I'd hate to see dpoll go down the same road.

Hey, @lion200.

Not surprised, eh? I guess I'm not either, since I know what I did, but the problem is, the height of the mountain changes week to week, and since I don't have a clue what others are doing, it's impossible to really know when enough is enough. So, I'm happy to be back up there. It's been too long. :)

re: well thought out

I appreciate that. I try to say something when I leave a comment. Hopefully people find value in them. It seems like some will, and others not so much. Doesn't normally stop me, though. When you've got something to say, you say it, and when you don't, you move on. :)

We'll see what this all looks like next week, I suppose.

I'm not sure what you know about them, so I might be telling you anything new. If so, sorry. :)

ENGAGE is a token that is exclusively found on steem-engine.com. One or both of the guys behind STEEM Monsters, I believe. So, various STEEM users have started to create their own tokens, and Asher is one of them. He's been trying to get the tokens into greater circulation, so now you can call them up via comments by using the the code I just used.

If the '!' is missing or ENGAGE is spelled any other way, it's not going to work. The next part is the amount you want to call to give out. Done right, as long as everything is functioning, the misterengagement account comes a long and leaves a comment saying the amount of ENGAGE tokens is now in your account.

To verify that, you go to steem-engine.com, sign in (keychain is the easiest way to do this, otherwise, name and private posting key). Then you should be able to see your token balances by clicking on the link to your wallet (if you have more than one on steem-engine).

Right now, the ENGAGE tokens aren't really being used for much other than rewarding engagement, but Asher is working on different ideas (like 'selling' his pie charts), to get the tokens circulating more.

On the week the ENGAGE tokens are released too :( haha, the opposite was supposed to happen!

It's a noticeable dip though, almost 30 less people is strange I think.

Anyway, well done to those who are here, including yourself with lucky 33! :D

Hey, @riverflows.

re: well deserved

I do feel like I accomplished something, but without janton or melinda participating, I also feel like I need to acknowledge this was done without their numbers being counted. So, whenever they get back, we'll all see how we fare, right?

I've had those quiet weeks. I'm not sure if I felt it so much last week. The wallet thing, though. Many people did get caught up in that. Always seems like there's got to be something. :)

Thanks for the mention and the kind words. And yes, onward and upward!

Wow, @bengy, that is impressive - scoring a "double!" 😊 On top of that, this week marks the 7th “Hot Pink” award and you’ve managed to win it 3 times – for a remarkable 42.8% win rate … 😉 I think @abh12345 will be in touch for some tips, as he has been trying to end up with some SBI!

Seriously, a great week @abh12345. Congratulations to all of this week’s winners! And a “tip of the hat” to @janton and @melinda010100 for continuing to award others, instead of competing for the top of the CEL Leader Board themselves.

Sure would be nice to see STEEM participating more fully in this welcome “surge” in the overall crypto market prices. Oh well, hopefully someday …

Off we go into a new week!

I was all, "Hey, I moved up, 35 is good for me" and then I saw that there was a 10% dropoff and that's probably the only reason why, lol. Oh well, I'll take it!

Thanks @abh12345 for all the work you do for all of us. And everyone on the list will have fun following @misterengagement and keeping up with what is going on with the ENGAGE tokens!

Hey, @abh12345.

I was hoping to give the post my first twenty cent vote in a while, but I guess $0.19935 will have to do. :)

It was this week (as far as I can figure) last year that I first landed atop the Engagement League. So, here I am again, this year, back at the top for the first time. I don't know what that means, or if it means anything, but it is a cool piece of trivia, or Engagement League lore. :)

I'm finally seeing what it takes to get here, again, and in some ways, it seems more difficult than it used to be. I guess that's a good thing. :)

While it's impossible to say what the placements will be this time next week, I feel now as I did a year ago, that I'm merely warming a seat.

Without @janton and @melinda010100 in the mix, or without surpassing janton's high scores of 17,000 to over 18,000, it isn't really the same.

However, I am grateful for the STEEM, and the STEEM bounty, and both have been powered up to be put to good use.

Thank you, as always, Asher, for the leagues. As you can see by the other comments on this post, there are quite a few of us who are thankful to you for them.

Thanks goes to the @esteemapp folks for their ongoing support of the leagues. It's very much appreciated.

Congratulations everyone who made it to the Top 25, especially those in the Top 10. The Top 5 were fairly close together this time, weren't we? :)

If anyone mentioned me in a comment, I will be sure to answer you in a moment.

To everyone, I say, we're back to climbing the mountain again.

Onward and upward.

Mornin’@abh12345. Thanks for all the statistics and congrats to the winners!
I have a question. I haven’t upvoted myself ever, yet it I have 6 SV. I am on trails and wonder if that is where it’s coming from. Is there anyway to make sure I don’t have a self vote.

0.00 BPC

abh12345 6 years ago

My pleasure :)

Ahh yes, the trail self-vote. A common problem for EL members.

You can always remove the votes later, but better for your VP and $ would be to not cast them in the first place.

Can I ask what your trail is that you follow? With 600 SP, I think at present your vote might be better cast manually. But it is your choice of course :)

0.00 BPC

redheadpei 6 years ago (edited)

My VP is always hanging below 50 usually at 44. I’m not sure of all the trails I’m on but seems to be a lot. Steem connect seems to be using my vote I thought I cancelled but didn’t make a difference in my vp.
I would like to cancel the trails and start fresh. Not sure how.

0.00 BPC

melinda010100 6 years ago

I try to keep my VP above 80 and although I do have a few friends set up on autovote (including you) I don't follow any trails. I like to make my own voting decisions. Do you use Autovoter to follow the trails?

redheadpei 6 years ago (edited)

Thanks Melinda. I need to get my vp under control and do the auto vote. I signed up for different trails as I went along but seem to have overdone it. I’m going to check what they are. I think they are with smart steem or steem connect? 😊

Congratulations to both @glenalbrethsen and @tattoodjay, who strike me as winners by remarkably different approaches! And naturally, congratulations to everyone else who finished "in the colors" this week! It's awesome that we have these leagues as inspiration.

I guess I barely managed to scrape into the top-100, in spite of being caught up in the whole "minnow making" gig... although much of that will also be reflected in next week's league tables.

Not sure why there was a drop @abh12345, but I'm sure the "wallet issue" might have had an impact, but I'd also submit that there are more and more "DrugWars addicts" out there, who might have swapped posting for gaming... just a thought.

Thanks, as always, for putting on the leagues!

Right off the bat, congratulations to the top finishers, and well to everyone really. Just look at those weekly numbers, each and every one of them on the plus side with the exception of one, and it is on the down side, but that is good. The downside is the number of self votes, nice to see all the others up, and that one down.

I think the winter doldrums are leaving us all, or have not quite arrives,(depending on top or bottom of the world). We want to share that new found glory, or last gasp of nice weather. I guess it could have something to do with the price of steem, but to short of a time to really get a cycle set.

glenalbrethsen 6 years ago

hey, @artgirl.

I'll tag in here since @abh12345 mentioned me. :)

The answer about musing comments is, yes, the comments definitely count. The problem is, as @abh12345 said, the characters, or the words you write, end up somewhere that doesn't show up when Asher goes to compile the amount of characters you typed. So, you'll get credit for the comments, just not the characters. To work around that, I've been copying what I wrote in musing and pasting it into the comment that shows up in your comment feed through Steemit or whatever UI you want to use. It's an inconvenience, but it's the only way I've found to have the characters counted accurately.

Oh... So it's like a double comment then? The original showing up in musing and the copy pasted comment in Steemit for example?

0.00 BPC

glenalbrethsen 6 years ago

It won't show up as a double comment when Asher compiles the report, so as far as that goes, you'll be okay. What I've been doing is taking the comment that musing generates to say, "To see this answer on musing, click here", and then just pasting what I submitted to musing in that comment. It's the same one—it just shows up differently on Steemit or Busy than it does on Musing somehow. I thought at first it could end up counting twice, but it hasn't so far. :)
