Weekly Update 52

We Made It To Our 1st Birthday! Congrats To All Involved :)

source

Today is our 1 year anniversary, 52 weeks in a row of being in existence. I thought about having a celebration, but in reality I think we should be low key like the person who inspires us all, @fulltimegeek. Don't get me wrong, I think what people have done to support this project with their upvotes, donations, delgations, and general vocal support have been nothing short of amazing. But the work is just a step in doing our part in helping those that are trying to build the community. I think we all know by now why, but the fact that the project has existed for 52 straight weeks is a testament to not only @fulltimegeek, but to his Stewards that were handpicked by him.

We salute you ALL! And thank you for the work you continue to do every day!

As some of you may have noticed the vote values rose a bit today as I adjusted the voting power to 45% from 33% per post per steward. The reason is that we have less Stewards posting that when we originally started and also less posts per each person. I made the adjustment and I think it will be able to stay there, but I'll keep monitoring it. That moves the vote value per post to $0.24, so hopefully it helps a bit more and we are able to maintain it! :D

We had a decent week of upvotes on our post and should get 7 steem on our payout (you never know til payout though). That will be added to our payment to @em3 for his 5000 SP delegation along with any donations!

Donations picked up again with 4 of our regular donors. We had 2 donations from both SOG members and non-Sog members. First was non-SOG members @bashadow (1.5 Steem) and @preparedwombat (1.0 Steem), and the 2 SOG members were @lyndsaybowes (1.0 Steem) and @cranium (3.0 Steem).

I know I thank every one of our donors and voters each week and it is certainly well deserved. They have made it possible to lease as much SP as we have been able to do, and every penny they have given has gone for more voting power. Words are not enough to describe how amazing everyone is here and my gratitude is heartfelt!

Finally I want to pay tribute to the FREE DELEGATORS to the account. Every week they are kinda unsung because they don't change much, and as a result don't get recognized for their silent support. But today I want to thank them, and also the ones that have delegated for even a short while. I might miss some of you and it is not intentional, because I don't really have a good way to sort through how to check it. I apologize in advance if I do so.

Thank you all from all of us. Without your support on a daily basis this account wouldn't have anywhere near the power it has to provide any significant upvote. I know you don't get mentioned often, but you are true "givers", and it is appreciated and respected.

ps. I would also like to note that both @em3 and @public-eye have given us generous paid delegations, so while it isn't completely free, they certainly are kicking in support in their own way!

Congrats To All Involved With This Amazing Group Of People :)

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

Tell your friends about what we are doing for the #stewardsofgondor, we want the program to continue to grow and support the many things the SOG members are doing.

This Weeks Payment On Posts Today (~$7 Steem)

Tonight we will hopefully receive the 52nd weekly payout since the launch of this program. The payout will be approximately $7 steem, 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"
