We are now starting the week. Historically the weekends are slow for us, so let us use that same approach and kick it into overdrive to start the week.
What is a good target for Monday?
I am going to say let's take out 450. I believe we can do it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'll try to contribute a few comments today. I've been a little busy with the video game account.
Intentaré aportar unos cuanto comentarios hoy. He estado un poco ocupado con la cuenta de los videojuegos.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'm gonna help out! Let just go for 500..
Can we make sure to see your commitment towards the goal? 30-50 comments on this post will be enough.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Did I do 30 yet? I'm not counting and I gotta start work haha!
Maybe I see your name as 35 times in the ctrl + F settings.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Haha awesome! Well let’s keep it going for a while, and see what we get to by the time the next LMT is posted.. it’s really tough to following and keep up with this many different conversations and people at once lol
Sure is fun though!
If not we will put him on the target. LOL
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Oh god!!! What have I done! 0.0
Lol. Get started typing because we need to see those numbers.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea I know!! I gotta engage with my wife too! And the smoked ribs her mom made for dinner!!
Sure. I am aiming for 30 comments at least. Although engagement help to boost the number of comments. Mostly I am active while most of you guys are sleeping. Different time zones. It sucks.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Had that same problem this weekend nonsowrites, what zone you're in? I'm in UTC/GMT +2 hours Amsterdam time. Not always on during the day but often am. Might catch you one of these days when the rest of the sleepy heads are resting.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Here... UTC +1 West African Time
I think youre an hour ahead.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Ah cool, slight difference you're on during the day often?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Getting 30 comments isn't that hard considering there were a few hundred to pick from :P
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I am lazy much...lol and picky with the things that interest me. I often don't comment on things I have little or no knowledge on.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That does make it tough.
But then, think of it this way: you give us material to engage with when we wake up.
It is hard to open up @leomarkettalk and find very little there.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah rather than just comment on other people's comments I think I will come up with more interesting ideas and topics to discuss during the cause of the day.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That helps also. I just posted a few different articles of stuff I find interesting. Maybe that will get some interaction going with other members.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Abit slow there mate! Pick up the comments were not going to clear 300 at this rate
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Cool Ranch Doritos, always makes my fingers want to fly across the keyboard. It's usually movie food, but right now, it's typing food.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Typing food? I bet that is a new one on the food companies.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Haha thanks for the reminder!!! Really feeling the pressure now!!
How are those comments going?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
They are going alright!! I think I shoulda listened to my elders and not bit off moar than I can chew lol!
Like I was saying.. I need to promote this in the terminal discord.. and help some of the redfish and members get interested in LEO and engagement in general.
I can run another contest tomorrow? I have been building my @ecency points and jam out a few upvotes.
Oh man we'd easily hit up more if time zones weren't an issue. I'm about to head off to bed.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
We are already past 300. It seems like the goal post has moved up a bit.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thats awesome news on the engagement front! I will be heading off to bed hopefully my time has helped spur some comments and lift engagement
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Okay, we will go with your target.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's a "Brave" target! :) (couldn't resist!)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Okay... More people showing up. That's good. I am having a good feeling today. Might be a record breaking day. I will feed off the good energy before I get sleepy 🤭
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Record breaking will be over 550 I believe. @amr008 might remember but I cant recall.
We will see how it unfolds the rest of the day. Going to be better numbers than we had in a while.
Mondays seem to be good days.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The highest we touched was 538 on March 14th .
We weren't able to hit 550 but hey guess what we are about to hit 600 now .
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Every contribution is appreciated. Keep up the good work 💪🏿
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Every little bit counts. Which games are you playing?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I am recording Limbo. I'm going through the story of the game, I think I'll record 3 episodes of that game until the end. Then I will record the story of other video games that I already have in mind.
Estoy grabando Limbo. Estoy pasando la historia del juego, creo que grabaré 3 episodios de ese juego hasta el final. Luego grabaré la historia de otros videojuegos que ya tengo en mente.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Nevre heard of it... I'll have to look it up
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Ah ok. It's a fairly older game that I haven't played. It didn't really interest me as much.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That game is a work of art buddy, I recommend it.
Later when I buy a new console, if I will be uploading videos of current games.
Ese juego es una obra de arte colega, te lo recomiendo.
Mas adelante cuando me compre una consola nueva, si estaré subiendo videos de juegos actuales.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If you plan on streaming the games , use vimm tv which is built on hive .
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Vimm is fairly nice and you tend to get a few upvotes for using their platform. I haven't really been there much lately though.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I would love to stream the games mate, but my internet is only 512Kbs, in fact the net download speed is 120 - 130Kbs. I'll have to wait for Starlink to come out next year and sign up for it, I think with that internet I'll definitely be able to stream live. But first I have to buy the console hahaha.
Me encantaría transmitir los juegos colega, pero mi internet es de solo 512Kbs, de hecho la velocidad de descargar neta es de 120 - 130Kbs. Tendré que esperar al año que viene a que salga Starlink y contratarlo, creo que con ese internet sin dudas podré transmitir en vivo. Pero primero debo comprarme la consola jajaja.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I tend to prefer RPGs and stuff like that. Puzzles are fine every now and then so it will probably end up on my backlog.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Then leave me your opinion if you get to play it buddy.
Luego me dejas tu opinión su lo llegas a jugar colega.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Limbo looks very dark and atmospheric and it's on SteamMay have to check the reviews out even though I have a ton of games bought on sale from there that I haven't played yet.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I personally recommend it, it will be an incredible experience, my colleague.
Personalmente te lo recomiendo, será una experiencia increíble colega.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Limbo ah ? I have been trying to take my mind off of some stuff recently and trying to do stuff I love which are playing poker , hang out here and play some games ( apart from working ) so which game do you think I should play ?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
My go to is Age of Empires 2 lol
I don't really play a lot of games these days anymore but AoE2 is a classic that I keep going back to.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I have heard about AoE way too many times lol , I will try it out :p
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It's a great strategy game! They recently re-launched the game under the name of Age of Empires 2 Definitive Edition. You can find it on Steam.
They redesigned the graphics to give it a more modern look but keep in mind that the core of the game is from more than 20 years ago :P
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You should definitely play Limbo my friend. When you play it you will be teleported into the story, the setting, the sounds, the graphics, everything makes you get right into the game. And after you play that one, I recommend Inside, it's the second game that the same company released and it's like Limbo, only it's a different story.
Sin dudas deberías jugar Limbo mi amigo. Al jugarlo te vas a teletransportar a la historia, la ambientación, los sonidos, los gráficos, todo hace que uno se meta de lleno en el juego. Y despues de que juegues ese, te recomiendo Inside, es el segundo juego que sacó esa misma compañía y es como Limbo, solo que es otra historia.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The story is what I look for the most . I don't care much about graphics to be honest as long as the story is good . Graphics doesn't always mean good game right ?
I will try Limbo :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
We agree on that, and in fact I think you'll even love the graphics haha. I hope you enjoy it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I just started playing The Tenants as something to take my mind off of the crisis.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
What is it about ? I like just open world games where you can do anything lol ( which I can't do in real life )
I will check it out though , thank you :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I don't think it's for everyone. You're a landlord and invest in and deal with tenants. I've always liked "God games" going back to Sim City. When Steam has a sale, I usually pick something up.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I typically play PubG / Escape From Tarkov.. and Valheim.. WoW: Classic.
I loved to play CounterStrike, Half-Life battlefield: bad company & BF3&4
I don't play them as much and I never really could get into WoW. I think all that maple story kind killed my mood for online games.
As for shooters, I tend to prefer not to play them. I am so rusty that I suck so bad now. I use to be able to play decently but once you take a long while off, your skills get rusty.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
WoW. I was addicted to that for about six months. So much so that people thought I was dead. I wouldn't even get up off of the floor for pizza, he had to slide it over to me. :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea, I've been pretty addicted to gaming before.. playing until my ass/back hurt from my the chair..
I quit playing really, after a few bad experiences on a "community" server, and it all just became to seem really pointless and not fun anymore.
It sucks to think of how much money I’ve spent on games, and how much time I’ve wasted staring at that screen.
Think of it this way: As a secret government plot to train the populace in self-defense in case the Aliens land! All of those Billions of trained snipers, will be ready to defend mother Earth! lol!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
What is the “maple story”?
Well it was a MMORPG created in South Korea. It was localized to English so there were a ton of people playing it probably a decade or so back.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Oh I see.. yea the only MMORPG I got into was WOW and RuneScape.. but it always circles back to me spending 8hours or more farming digital assets that I do not really own, in a game that has no bearing on real life
I used to play CS until recently too .
BF3 is amazing :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Hell yea!! It was next level when I was shooting helicopters with tank rounds, and homing missiles..
I had a 3man crew with me in the tank on Noshar Canals and I went 36-0 on Xbox 12 v 12 lol
Or was is 24v24... idk console sucks
I miss playing games :(
Console sucks ? Definitely they do . I got Xbox one as a gift from my brother , I wish he gave me a PC though lol.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Lol my cousin hooks me up!! I need to hook him up with a hive account.. he’s just a huge lurker
I'm a cod mobile fan boy. But I stopped playing. Been busy with hive and building my account. Little time for gaming
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Exactly.. if I’m trying to build my hive account, and engage.. it leaves little time for gaming.
On which platform do you play ? I have xbox one S which I haven't touched in 1 year lol . Can we play together sometime?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I have a PC and a PSOne mate hahaha. On the PC I usually play League of Legends and COD Modern Warfare 1. If you want to play with me you can add me on Discord my friend, look for me as theanalystjohn #1625.
Right now I'm saving all the money from my @gamesforyou and @theanalystjohn account to buy a mid - high end smartphone as I plan to upload gameplays to the @gamesforyou account. And right now I'm recording a 3 episode series going through the story of Limbo, it's an excellent game.
Yo tengo una PC y un PSOne colega jajaja. En la PC suelo jugar League of Legends y COD Modern Warfare 1. Si deseas jugar conmigo puedes agregarme en Discord mi amigo, búscame como theanalystjohn #1625.
En este momento estoy ahorrando todo el dinero de mi cuenta @gamesforyou y de @theanalystjohn para comprarme un smartphone de gama media - alta ya que tengo planeado subir gameplays a la cuenta @gamesforyou. Y ahorita estoy grabando un serie de 3 episodios pasándome la historia de Limbo, es un excelente juego.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Nice , I will follow it :) Don't forget to post the link here when you upload .

Perfect colleague.

With enough coffee and medicinal herbs I believe, It's doable™ 🌸☕

Decaf or high test?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
450 seems like a great target we're currently at 200 only need another 250 comments. Let's do this!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
A good start. It does get rather tight in the afternoons (my time).
So we will see what fills in throughout the day.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah time zones bugger me, I get a bit of time with you lads in the am but it's also peak work time so can't do much. And then some time now but it is qte to 1 and bed time for work.
But I want to jam out a few more comments before going night night
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
We need to recruit more people from your time zone.
See problem solved. LOL
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I have to start shilling more out this way
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
How is life over there in Australia? Wonder if they're still filming mu favorite Aussie show: The Block I was binge-watching that on Prime when the crisis hit.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Oh the block! Man they kicked a heap of people who had no where else to go out of a building in St Kilda to transform it into expensive homes.
The building was donated by a former wealthy Australian who wanted it to remain for societies most disadvantaged. Went well for a few decades until the T.V show wanted it.
Yeah pretty good can't complain, we don't have COVID here but I'm not counting my chickens yet were approaching winter and international arrivals are recommencing.
How about you in your kneck of the woods?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You know what? I wonder if that is the place where I chatted with either a resident or the manager that had blogged about a place like that in Melbourne before the show got it. I used to manage a building like that and that's why I wrote to him. Hopefully those people found other places to live.
I'm glad you're ok, because of The Block it looks like you guys live in paradise down there! I always thought Tazmania was it's own country. I had no idea it was part of Australia.
I've known of people who had COVID, but no one I actually interacted with and no one in my family. Here it's political. You can almost tell someones politics, by whether or not they're wearing a mask. Let's hope we all get through this unscathed.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Let's try and start the week with another excellent day.
Mondays are usually a bit busy but I usually can contribute more than on a saunday.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Let's beat that mark..
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Lol. We can try to for it but it might depend on getting off to a good start.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It usually does. We need to cross 100 in a rapid period of time, perhaps even 150 to have a chance.
If not, we end up spending the afternoon trying to push over the 333 level.
It would be night to have that in the bag by lunch tomorrow.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea it seems like there will be some lag after you get off. The night hours tends to have very little activity.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I will be on a bit longer tonight so hopefully can push it higher.
I think one of the keys, tell me if you agree, is the number of "Starter" comments. The days we really hit the big numbers, I think we were able to top 50. When we do our norm, I think we are in the 30s.
So perhaps we need to focus upon getting the "topics" going strong early on and then carrying them forward.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That might be a great idea, and haven't you thought about leaving a main topic at the top of each post? and we will not necessarily have to talk all day about the subject but it can be a good point to leave some points of view and create interaction, and then if other topics arise as welcome variants, of course everything is a simple opinion with a view to comments be more and more!
In some comments that I leave throughout the community, I am taking it out of habit to leave an invitation to @leomarkettalk so maybe some of you will be curious and take a walk around here!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Main topic is kind of bad because it limits the variety of topics. We want this to be a general all-purpose area.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
In that aspect yes, I only believed that as an introductory topic without limiting the variety of possible topics, only something that will revolve around a topic but not a limitation to address other topics!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea but its also tough to figure them all out.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It is tough and this mechanism isnt the best in the world but it is what we have.
We can add a bit more to the table. I will try to get a few more things up before the end of the night.
Maybe that will generate a bit of overnight activty.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I will provide as much data as I can from my side if it helps gaining insight . I just added the top_level comment count to the script and also
Average comments per top_level comment . We can see for a week or so if there is any trend.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea the data is nice. Maybe we see a trend somewhere and move towards those.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'd like to see a little more non-crypto related top-level starter comments. I know next to nothing about technical analyisis for example, so usually skip those.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'll try to bring a topic of conversion and get the conversations going.
As was stated above, every little bit helps.
We can get a few conversations that are interested and joined in by a few different people and we can explode the numbers.
Sometimes on topic can add 40 or 50 comments.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Hm yeah you are right . I just updated the script to add how many top level comments we had on yesterday's post . It will give us the insight we are looking for hopefully.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think we are off to a good start . It is still early morning here and already 150 comments :) Lot of comments to reply to .
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Almost 200 comments already and it should probably make it there soon enough. I would be surprised if I see us at 300 by the time I get up tomorrow.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
let's hit 450 :) I am ready to comment more today as I have some free time now and in the evening .
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I just went on a commenting spree. Feel free to add some in and maybe I will get back to them before I go to sleep.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'm still up and already have some in and will be adding more as the morning goes on.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Lol that's what I am doing right now . We are at 469 , I am sure we will hit 500 ( at least ) . I will go to sleep now and when I wake up , I will reply again to all replies :) Let's see if we can push to 550 .
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I can see you lot were having some fun without me earlier. The fact that we are in different time zones is quite, unfortunately. Would love to engage in real-time with the rest of the community. It does have a psychological impact on performance
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I know :( I used to wake up early just so I can engage with others here but right now I am not getting enough sleep and it is taking a toll on my health so I can't skip much sleep .
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
sorry about that mate. one cannot overextend themselves for too long without breaking down. on the flip side I wake up to a ton of materials to engage with, so it does have its advantages.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's how I am seeing too right now .
When I hop on , there are already so many discussions that would have taken place which gives me more options to read and reply to .
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I should add 30-50 put of the 450 today. Let's go!
