I would like to think to that it was spearheaded by the efforts of SOG as more and more people are seeing how effective it is to engage people.

Asher's reports was the first thing I saw that gave me a target to reach and I am happy to be part of the Top 20 now for bragging rights but for being able to see improvement in myself.

Everyone of us struggled at the start but a lot of people see that communities are a vital part of Steem and Engagement is the means to make it successful.
