Wow! I really didn't see that one coming this week :) Thank you @abh12345 once again for hosting such a positive contest, and @paulag and @carlgnash for all of your support! A big congratulations to you, @glenalbrethsen, @gillianpearce, @eaglespirit, @malloryblythe, @maverickinvictus, @leeart, @fullcoverbetting, @melvadg, and @mountainjewel and everyone on this list!!
You made my day Asher, thank you :)
Thanks @lynncoyle1. I'm just about to write my own acceptance speech! 😁
haha Thank you and congratulations to you as well :)
So well said! Congratulations to the top placers and everyone involved 🌸🌸🌸
Thank you @yogajill and congratulations to you too :)
My pleasure Lynn, a great job on retaining top spot! :D
congrats Lynn! well done and well deserved :)
Thank you @mountainjewel!
You are making my day, too! You deserve to take the crown. What kind of celebration does this call for? :D
So glad that I could brighten up your day too!
And that's a good question...as I sit here with my glass of red wine :)
Congratulation @lynncoyle1 well deserved
Thank you @wolfhart :)
Great Job @lynncoyle1!
Thanks! You too :)
Thank you, and congratulations to you. It's good to get the crown out of storage, dust it off and see someone wear it. It certainly suits you. :)
I wouldn't advise, however, trading it for an ice cream truck.
Too late...there's a Mexican guy looking pretty dapper with a crown on his head. And you should see my new set of wheels haha
Well, it was your crown to give away, so hey, to each their own. I bet the crown was an easier trade than the winner's jacket was. Speaking of which, has @themanwithnoname popped in yet? I haven't seen him since last week when he said he was going on a trip. Was thinking he'd be back by now.
haha the winner's jacket...no takers here...too hot.
I believe he was going to be away for 2 weeks and would periodically check in. It's not the same without him here, is it? :)
Oh, okay, two weeks. He didn't tell me how long, and so I guess I figured one week would be more than enough time to be gone. I mean, what is he thinking? More rest and relaxation? Sheesh.
Actually, it isn't the same. I figure he's the reason why I didn't have my typical 300 comments last week. He's good for at least 30 of them, if not all 50. :)
That's okay. He's got better things to be doing than helping me with my league placement. :)
hahaha that's so true! He's good for at least 50+ for you!! :)
I don't know about 50-plus. It's not like we just sit here and comment back and forth all day. I'd take the time to go look at what we've done, but I think I'd rather just keep commenting instead. :)
The cool thing, though, is he's an equal opportunity commenter, of which you have been known to be a beneficiary of on occasion yourself. :)
The queen is back on her throne where she deserve to big!
Crazy how engaged you are to the Steem Blockchain. It is really great to see you back at the top spot. This reminds me of the moment I did start at the league. You and @gillianpearce rocking the place!
haha thanks @fullcoverbetting! That's me and @gillianpearce ... just rocking the place :)
I was going to say "those were the days" @fullcoverbetting but actually is fine now. Less intense!
Good to see @lynncoyle1 bakc at the top as you say! 😊
I guess that it is the first time that I did notice a typo in your reply 😁
I am getting nostalgic now. Me in the top 10 and you 2 at the top of the league! Until Glenal came by this how it was, week in, week out 😁
Lets see if the three of us can repeat this. Meaning myself in the top 10 and the two of you on the top 2 places.
You may change the order 😁
Happy commenting!
I'm not going to be in the top two places @fullcoverbetting. Unless @lynncoyle1 and @glenalbrethsen take time out. 😁
I'm happy to land in the top ten. Being third last week was a bit of a fluke a think. As soon as someone else ups their game just a little I'll be gone.
That's fine with me. 😁
I'll be looking out for your return to the top ten though!
Regarding the typo . . . I'm more than a little harassed at the moment. The computer shop wiped all my photographs from my computer yesterday and I've just spent six months organising them into folders.
I'm in the process of trying to get them back but no luck so far. 😢
Ouch, that indeed can create a lot of frustration. Keep calm and think positive!
I am doing my utmost best to catch them up but just like in your case, this probably will never happen!
Ulthough the world cup is approaching fast, which will give me lots of posts to comment on.
I will have to profit from the first two weeks because them I will be on a holiday!
My wife is already pissed that I have to take the laptop with me to keep track of the world cup contest!
But some sacrifices have to be made to support the Steem ecosystem!
I don’t believe it that you third place was a fluke. If you got there, you deserved it!
Oh dear. Your poor wife @fullcoverbetting. Having you work on your computer whilst on holiday is bad enough but doing it in the name of football just adds insult to injury! 😂
I'm not doing well with thinking positive about the photographs. I'll myself the day to wallow as I see if I can save any of them. After that I'll just have to accept it and start all over again. Or not. Right now I can't face the thought of starting all over again.
Maybe I'll allow myself to wallow until my son has had a chance to look at it and then, if it's as bad as it is, I'll just have to let it go. 😢
Congratulations from a newbie aka plankton. I was amazed by the sheer depth of this post and the message it conveying. As my primary purpose with Steemit so far is posting on a daily basis and doing some comments now and then but this tabulation and statistics made me wondering and pondering about myself.
For this duration for which the calculation is made, your contribution in the form of letters were more than 100 thousand...Amazing...I think it need me a 3-4 days leave with leaving all earthly stuffs to do even half of that...
Kudos to you and Congrats again...
Stay blessed..
aww thank you @angelro! When I began on steemit, I too focused on my own posts, but quickly realized that more relationships can be formed with genuine commenting, and it's through those relationships that I gauge my success :)
