Redfish Power UP League and Wall of Fame Week #8

in #steem6 years ago

Welcome to the Redfish Power UP League and Wall of Fame. This week we have 2 new accounts join in for some fun and growth. There are now 84 redfish tracking their road to minnowhood. I wish each and every one of you success in growing your account on Steemit. The aim of this challenge is to grow your own SP to 500. To learn more about this initiative please do have a read of the introduction post  

Do you want to join?

You can join, or leave at any stage, all you have to do is leave a comment below and let me know that you want in or out. 

Rule Change  

Because I like to mix things up and make things more fun, and because it would be possible to stay on the top of the league for some time, we have a rule change.

You can only win a prize for being top of the weekly league 2 weeks in a row.  After this you will be asked to select a lucky number and an SBD unit will be granted to who ever is in that position in the league.  

Redfish Power UP League

Every Wednesday I will be connecting to the SteemSQL database managed by @arcange and gathering details on the Owned SP for each person in the league.The current weekly owned SP will be compared to the SP held when the person joined the league and the average weekly % SP growth will be calculated. The person with the highest % weekly SP growth will be on top of the league. When a person reaches owned SP of 500, they will be removed from the league and added to the Wall of Fame.

 

Congratulations

Congratulations to @mmunited achieving an average weekly growth of 129329% in SP putting you on top of this week’s league for the second week in a row.  You will be send 1 SBI unit courtesy of this weeks sponsor @simplymike

Keep in mind the rule change, if you win again next week @mmunited you will have to select a lucky number and the prize will go to someone else 

Congratulations also to @jacekw.dev, @gmatthe2, @hananali,  @sk540,@kinglypalace, @markgritter  @mimismartypants,  @rufruf, and @coinsandchains   as you all are in the top 10 and have an average weekly power up 203% or more.

Congratulations also to @simata and @kriptonik for signing up last week and joining in the league.  Now is really the best time to power up and grow. 

Spot Prizes

Lucky number 15 @resuscitate you will be sent 1 SBI unit
Lucky number 20 @abidemiademok21 you will be sent 1 @dustsweeper basic membership. 

Wall of Fame

There are no changes to the wall of fame this week.

 @giddyupngo, @phoenixwren, @sebbbl, @meetmysuperego and @chekohler are all on the home stretch.  Come on dudes, I am cheering you on.  

Visualize the Internal Market

It is free to trade SBD for STEEM on the internal market, however the information provided is not fantastic. So to help you make an informed decision, we have created an internal market visualization, which we will update daily. You can check it out here  

Help me thank our sponsor

A big shout out to @simplymike. for sponsoring this week’s Redfish Power Up League winner. Thank you very much for your generosity.Would you like to sponsor a prize? Contact me on discord paulag#0515

Shameless Promotion

@steemcommunity is a witness project from myself and @abh12345. There are many good witnesses out there and doing your research is important. I hope you will take the time to read our witness introduction post and consider us as one of your steemit witnesses. If you are not sure how or why to vote for a Steemit witness drop a question below and I will do my best to help you.  

Opportunities for Redfish

There are many opportunities for Redfish to earn STEEM and SBD to use to Power UP. One such project is Pay it Forward and the contests they run. Do have a look at @pifc which will be the home of all Pay It Forward Contests so you can try and win some STEEM or SBD 

 @dustsweeper is also an awesome way for Redfish to ensure they start earning. On Steemit, posts and comments with a payout value of <.02 are not actually paid out. @dustsweeper will sweep all your comments on the 5th/6th day and upvote it above the $0.02 threshold. So you don’t lose out. Every cent counts right. So head over and get yourself and dustsweeper membership and collect every penny you can. 

 @helpie runs daily trivia, live chats, curation and are an awesome community for you to get involved in.  “Helpie is a new and unique educational community within Steemit, designed to help users that are creating quality content grow on the platform" @llfarms.

 If you know of any initiatives ran for redfish, please do pop a comment below with the details.

What are you going to do this week to grow your SP? Please do comment below and let us know  

Sort:  

I don't understand about the rule changes. If I keep winning, I always need to select a lucky number every week.

What are you going to do this week to grow your SP? Please do comment below and let us know.

Yes. I will buy some steem to power up. I am keep buying byteball to exchange with Steem. My object is to reach 500 SP as soon as possible. Thanks you and @simplymike.

awesome work.

The change is to make this contest more fair to everyone. If you keep winning others will get discouraged. So if you are on top of the leader board next week, you will have to pick a lucky number and the prize will be sent to them

Hi @paulag! We are @steem-ua, a new Steem dApp, computing UserAuthority for all accounts on Steem. Starting from the witnesses, UA propagates from user to user based on its followers until equilibirum is reached. We are currently in test modus upvoting quality contributions with a high UA value (UA_author + UA_post)! Your UA_post value is 46.531.

Congratulations to everyone. It is good to see there are still so many motivated people around.
@mmunited, your @steembasicincome share has been sponsored!

Keep growing at this amazing pace!

thank you so much for being our sponsor again. you really rock

You're welcome!
Actually it's you people should thank, you're doing all the work :0)

Congrats to the winners! I am craaaaaawling to the finish line, lol.

lol I wouldn't say crawling. slow and stead but you are also on the home stretch. I am cheering you on. I know you can do it.

Maybe I will finish this at the same time I finish my virtual race which is called "the tortoise creep," lol. Slow and steady indeed!

"Congratulations also to @simata and @kriptonik for signing up last week and joining in the league. Now is really the best time to power up and grow."
I also signed up last week, but I don't find myself on the list.

Do not be discouraged @xplosive. Maybe later in the week you will also be with us. Really like that @paulag

Thank you @simata, you are probably right. Of course, I am not discouraged.
Also thank you to @paulag for doing all this work weekly with the data.

Your welcome @xplosive. 😊

OMG I am sooooooooo sooooooo soooooo sorry. You will be in the league next week. I promise.

Absolutely no problem! I completely understand!
Like I said above: "Thank you for doing all this work weekly with the data."

I think I stayed the same, My weekly percentage is going up though, think. Now I just have to figure out how to increase by 200 percent again..... This is starting to get difficult to keep up.
@paulag Thanks for the restreem and the awesome data you are giving us. I think I need to get a subscription to the steem SQL, or stand up my own DB with connectors. of course, then I would have to figure out how to write me a frontend for it as well.... too much to do and never enough time.

if you have the skills to make your own DB then you rock. there is no way I could even start to think about that. To much to do and never enough time is the story of my life lol.

@paulag Time is usually my problem, and I make use of more hours than most people. I just have too much work and other projects to take care of. The DB shouldn't be too bad It's relatively simple compared to the Healthcare DB's I typically work with. It's putting a front end on the DB so other's could access it that would be the hard part for me. I've been trying to figure out which API to use for the connector, steempy has some possibilities. Plus it would take a bit of an investment on my part, and I'm just not there yet. I'm actually looking at the Utopian stuff, trying to figure out how all of that works as well.

utopian is a really good place to start. i'm impresses with your line of thinking and your want to do more. As far as I know, steemit itself have some tutorials in their dev portal, but I dont know if it would help or if it is aimed more at SMTs

Thanks for the resource references, I'll check them out.

@brendanvanbreda and @brandonmay I suggest you join the league! I’m almost a redfish just need to keep pushing. For a free more weeks

You're now a Redfish/Plankton, @chekohler.

You're only 61 SP away from attaining the 500 SP level when you will officially become a Minnow. You'll then join the other Redfish League graduates on the Wall of Fame.

HUGE Congratzzz and I'm cheering you on!!!

This comment was made from https://ulogs.org

Thanks for clearing that up @angelacs and for the support! Yeah I’m soooo close I can almost taste it! Minnowlife awaits

Posted using Partiko iOS

You're Welcome, @chekohler. And YES it does! You'll SOON be there.

and I bet it tastes good

so close. Thank you also for inviting new members :-)

Belated thank you @paulag! I missed you post somehow this week and just wanted to say thank you so much for tracking all of this for us!! :)

you are most welcome, glad you stopped by.

Hey - only just heard about this...
I'm at about 350 SP natively, though am benefiting from two delegations at the moment (one only for this week while I take a turn judging at PIFC.) If I still qualify, I'd like in, please. (I don't plan on hanging around for long - as I quite like this whole slider thing.)

yes you do qualify because it is based on owned SP, not controlling SP. new legaue is out later today and you name will be included :-)

Hi @paulag, i want to join to this league.
I just got this recommendation from @simata. He also invited me to join this league.
😊
