THIS WAS A MISTAKE... IT IS A FRIENDS OF GONDOR POST THAT I MISTAKENLY POSTED TO MY ACCOUNT INSTEAD. FEEL FREE TO READ IT AS I WILL LEAVE IT UP.

BUT DON'T UPVOTE IT AS IT WAS NOT INTENDED FOR MY ACCOUNT

AND SINCE MANY HAVE ME ON AUTOVOTE, I WILL DONATE THE FULL STEEM PORTION TO THE @friendsofgondor ACCOUNT ON PAYOUT

Weekly Update 28

New All-Time High As @fulltimegeek Leads The Charge Over 10k SP!

source

Week 28 was simply amazing. It started out as a tough week as we lost some Minnowbooster leases and @themarkymark had to pull his 1K SP delegation, but ended on a super high-note as @fulltimegeek added a whopping 3000 SP to his delegaton (4500 SP in total!). The net sum of all the action is the account has now solidly broken 10K, and is in fact at 11500 SP! Thank you @fulltimegeek for your continued generosity, you are truly in a class of your own!

Also in case you missed it, @fulltimegeek also sent a message last week. I think it deserves highlighting here so that you all might see his continued dedication to you, the Stewards of Gondor:

I don't know what he's planning, but there is no doubt it will be generous and exciting. So stay tuned and keep your eyes open for sure! ;)

On the upvote of our post this week, we had another good week of participation and as usual @fulltimegeek is still leading the way there! As far as Steem goes it was a horrible week, dropping 22% to $0.78 for the week (down $0.22 to $0.78). Since the drop was recent the internal market hasn't caught up, plus we received the big bump in our SP, so our vote values actually rose a penny to $0.18 per post per steward (+$0.01).

On the paid delegation front we did have a lot of activity as we got our 150 SP Minnowbooster lease during the week and also got a 125 lease at the market rate of 325 SP per steem from a big @fulltimegeek fan @public-eye. This is his second time for @public-eye delegating to the account and he has been a pleasure to work with! We also lost a delegation from the market and have another one coming due tomorrow, so we are successfully working through those as well.

Also I would like to thank @themarkymark for his generous 1000 SP delegation for many weeks. He never asked for anything and delegated to the account and really helped us for roughly 3 months! Thank you @themarkymark, your support of @fulltimegeek and his Stewards is definitely appreciated!

During the week we had a three more donations come in, two from repeat SOG donors @abh12345 and @cranium each giving 1 Steem; and one from repeat non-SOG member @bashadow of 1.0 Steem. These donations really help as they keep adding to our totals and certainly go a long way towards replacing our leased SP! Thank all three of you very much for your donations, you are all keeping the Stewards of Gondor program alive and helping @fulltimegeek to spread his message way beyond his initial Stewards!!!

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 (~$6 steem)

Tonight we will receive the 28th weekly payout since the launch of this program. The payout will about $6 steem (with the new payout formula, it will be all in 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"
