The Minnow Power-up League - Week #46

in #community5 years ago (edited)

Welcome to the Minnow Power Up League.

Sadly, this will be the final Minnow Power-Up League Post for the foreseeable future. Both Paula and I feel it is time for a break and need to refocus our time. Hopefully the MPL will return at some point in the future.

A huge thank you to @yabapmatt for sponsoring the Minnow Power Up League with 200 STEEM and a bunch of Splinterlands cards every month, and a thank you also to the various sponsors listed further down the post. You rock.


The Minnow Power-Up League was created to encourage members of the community to invest STEEM and hold Steem Power. Holding Steem Power long-term is an excellent way to grow an individual account, and bring stability and growth to the price of STEEM.

We now have 159 minnows that are growing and tracking their progress on the road to dolphin-hood. We also have 49 graduates. Together, last week the league members have powered up a total of 11,238.775 Steem Power. All participants since joining have powered up a massive 328,597.553SP. To learn more about this minnow initiative please do have a read of our introductory post:

Let's Grow Together

Don’t forget we are all trying to grow so please do consider supporting the person above you and the person below you in the league by visiting their blog posts or even voting on their comments in this post.

The Minnow Power-up League

We are 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.

Level 1

Thank you everyone.

Sort:  

1 SBI share registered for @badmusgreene! If so inclined, excellent time to power up. And great to see @for91days there on the Wall of Fame! Well done! 😊

Sorry to see MPL go, but certainly understandable. Thank you @abh12345 and @paulag for all of your hard work to have made the weekly encouragement possible for so many "up and coming" Steemians! 👍

Thank you @roleero. The SBI share is much appreciated.

Happy to do my small part @badmusgreene, to provide a little encouragement.

All the best to you for a better tomorrow! 👍

Ah crap. This should have gone out on @steemcommunity.

Lol. Yes, you are definitely in need of a break! The rankings for levels 3 and 4 are also looking a bit confusing, unless it's not going on weekly growth any more.

I will miss the league, it was a good little driver to keep at it, but there is no arguing that you guys can only stretch so far. HF21 is coming anyway and it may take a while for the dust to settle from that, so I'd say that's the perfect time to take a break. I hore we see the league again, but I don't blame you if we don't.

Thank you @abh12345, @paulag and @yabapmatt for everything.

oops :D

Paula was burning the candle at the other end as she's out today and wouldn't be able to sort the data out this morning. Proof we do need a break!

Thank you for the kind words and support @minismallholding, much appreciated :)

You know, I did wonder as I was reading it!! LOL!

Up at 5:30, clearly not awake yet!

It's a crazy time to be about, have you lost your mind man!!

Just getting some practice in case something like employment happens.

This is the problem with going to bed before 11 pm - I'm done after 6 hours and need a coffee and food!

You're unemployed also? O.O
In Germany, there's a bank holiday today (well, at least in parts of Germany ...) so I got to sleep a little longer. Nice. :)
Tomorrow I have to be up at 6 again too since I decided not to take a free day just like most from my course.

Spending all day offline takes away much time from Steemit. I'm about to have my 2 years complete soon but I feel off it like never before.

Hope sun is shining nicely at your place too!

At present, yes. And with the current markets that needs to change sharpish!

Enjoy your bank holiday :)

Haha, is good to get the practice in I suppose. I have child alarms. I pray the day that they both sleep in will come soon!

It can't be too many more years. Good luck!

Aye, a year at most. Doddle, lol!!! ;0)

I was confused!!! Ah no matter. Foreseeable future? Like forever? Thats so sad! It must be a ton of work though. We all appreciate every thing you both have done. It was a real buzz being part of it. Really sorry to see it end.

Who knows, I hope not forever.

Thank you, we appreciate the kind words and additional sponsorship the likes of yourself have brought along :)

We are, or have been, on quite some journey together. Its nice to have back. I will have to find something else to spend my 2SBI pittance on xxx

A pack of Monster cards? :D

Sometimes this happens!

!giphy fail

haha!

I would call the below a resounding success! :D

I was wondering why it earned more than $1.....I didn't even notice it was the wrong account

Posted using Partiko Android

It's ok u can keep it, it's the least you deserve 🤗

Good job, buddy!

Thank you so much appreciate it! All about hitting them goals

I'm waiting on job news and Paula is busy with her work so it seems the right time to focus on ourselves for a bit.

Should still be good for Sundays post, although after the fork prizes might have to be adjusted!

At these prices we'll have Orcas all over the place :D

Cheers!

I started 45 weeks ago and made it to level 4 , for you two this was a lot off work but highly appreciated by a lot off us. So thanks for every week and looking forward to the future when you and @paulag have a new league or idea. No pressure hahaha

You hair changes more often than my socks you know? :)

It's been really great watching so many accounts build their SP up, and I hope that Steem gets it's backside into gear at some point so those gains look like something worthwhile!

No pressure at all, let's see what the Steem community have to offer :P :D

The gaga hair do is for special occasions! I hope the community will rise again and continues to be awesome !

@badmusgreene well done on your power up. 2SBI coming soon x

Thank you for sponsoring the MPL @riverflows :)

You are welcome xxxx

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks @riverflows for the SBI shares :)

I'm also sad to see this amazing motivator stop but I also understand. You guys are doing a wonderful job motivating and helping people with these leagues but your time is just as limited as everyone's.

Anyway, I'm glad I could be part of it, it helped me a lot but I'm graduating anyway, so I would have been kicked out anyway 😁

Thank you very much @paulag and @abh12345 for your hard work and see you around in other projects.

And thanks for the prize, if course 😜

Thank you @erikah :)

We both feel we've done our bit for now and hope others can take over until we are refreshed :)

Congrats to @for91days for dolphinhood and to @altobee for reaching 1000 SP.
And @muscara's back - great!

Congrats @evanstinger! Your SBI unit has been submitted.
