The Engagement League

This league is not based around financial rewards and relates to engagement.

Everyone currently on my master list has a chance here - including those powering down or dealing in delegations over the past couple of weeks.

I've used some metrics (which is the fancy way of saying that made up some numbers) relating to:

• Posts (P)
• Comments - number of (C)
• Number of people spoken to (PS)
• Comments - replies to replies - depth > 2 (C R)
• Comments - length in characters (C L)
• Witness votes (W) (for those proxying witness votes, your total is always 30)
• Up-votes to others (V)
• Up-votes to different authors (U V)
• Self-votes - a small minus score for this one, sorry! (S V)

_{Note: Copy/Paste comments will be excluded (If I find them!)}

Firstly, if you are placed in the table above then you among the top 25% of the league entrants!

• 384 accounts earned a score this week (375 last time)
• The top 100 produced 790 top level posts (731 last time)
• The top 100 produced 12277 comments (12233 last time)
• The top 100 produced over 2.32 million characters of text in comments (2.31 last time)
• The top 100 cast 34151 votes ( 34730 last time), of these, 138 were self-votes (142 last time)

**Congratulations to this weeks Engagement League winner @janton - did you bet on anyone else?! 🏆

The engagement master entered over twice as many characters than any other EL'ers onto the blockchain last week - one way to keep your fingers warm!

@veryspider finishes in 2nd place, reaching out to over 180 different accounts in the past 7 days.

And @melinda010100 is in 3rd with some super numbers all round.

Excellent engagement levels also from @brittandjosie, @abh12345, @tattoodjay, @bengy, @chireerocks, @erikah, @newageinv, and @kaerpediem who will all be receiving some STEEM this week.

Those without a self-vote (from their main account at least! 😱) and placed in the top ranks will also receive a little STEEM. These people are: @cicisaja, @mariannewest, @soyrosa, @scrawly, @steevc, @bozz, @delishtreats, @steemflow, @akomoajong, @simplymike, @glenalbrethsen, and @niallon11.

Well done everyone!

The Curation League / Rewards based

NOTE: If you have started a power-down or been involved in delegations in/out of your account, you will not appear on this list for 15 days following the activities above. Thanks!

The end column is what I think is a genuine indicator of how well you are financially working the curation game with the tools, including vested Steem Power, that you have at your disposal.

Well done to the top 10!
