Thank you @abh12345 and of course @curie for sponsoring such a motivational league!! I really need to lighten up on myself; once again I doubted that I'd be in the top 10! Why's Glen scratched out Ash? I'm obviously missing something :)
It might. :) As it is, though, someone seems to be more interested in $10-plus SBD on Hitbtc, which I don't really get. I guess they can't just look at other exchanges and figure out that SBD isn't going for all that much? Funny thing is, STEEM is below the average on Hitbtc, so someone's intentionally trying to do something there. :)
Yes I agree that is fishy. The deposits are locked, and so it's only the SBD currently on the exchange that is being traded - for as high at 70/80$, crazy!
I'm watching with interest though, it's a funny old game :)
Any practical purpose for doing it? It doesn't seem to be affecting the Steemit's internal exchange any. And why would people go that high on one exchange if everywhere else it's so much lower? This must have been organized. It just doesn't make any sense from the perspective of a veteran crypto investor, does it? Unless you're leading it, I guess.
Better than having my head on a swivel every week. This way, all of you can look over your shoulders!
Nah. I guess you didn't see my acceptance speech on last week's results page, which pretty much means you were off doing more needful things, which is actually the point of it all.
I've had more time to spend on Steemit than most everyone else, and I felt like it was an unfair advantage. This week it doesn't look like it, but if I'd actually ended up being productive for a couple more hours this last week (the hours I was actually on) I'd have been at the top of the list again.
As it is, I fully intend to be at the top of list, leading out as much as I can. If someone has the time and wants to make a run for it, great, but otherwise, it just doesn't seem very sporting of me. :)
Well, I don't think I would be the only one of the leaguers who would do it if they were in my shoes. I think there'd be others giving up the prize if they were spending two to three times as long as others were. It would only be fair. It just happens to be me this time, but at whatever point someone starts dominating because of the time they have, maybe they decide to step away, or the two of us have a go of it. :)
Ye of little faith :) Well done on another top 3 finish!
Glen asked to be removed from the prizes, giving others a go - very noble of him. He may be back though, so watch out all :D
haha thank you for that!
With regards to Glen, he's just giving the rest of us a false sense of security ;)
I think you might be right, but for now he's abstained from the rewards, very kind.
I wonder if $10/STEEM would tempt him back :D

Well that's all very sporting of you then!
Really, that speaks volumes to your character Glen :)

You may not be there at the top but I always believe you will because you always do.
Thanks for the vote of confidence @leeart!!
