Hello,
I thought I had powered up the 53 Hive a couple of hours before the blockchain considered it the 1st.
I was confused and had a friend talking me through it here:

I was at work though, so I very well could have powered up after the deadline. I am not sure with the time difference and everything. Just wanted to mention it anyways just in case. Regardless, thank you for contest it was a lot of fun to show my support for this awesome blockchain.
I'll be back for Round #2 next month.
Hello, @yems!
I took a quick peek, and it looks like both your power ups on the first counted (and you scored yourself a nifty @hivebuzz badge in the process), but since you didn't have the 100 Hive Power in your account before the first, they didn't count as qualified for the main prize pool. However now you're definitely set for September's Power Up Day, and glad to hear you're planning to join us! 😊
And thanks for giving it a shot, even though you were at work - definitely appreciated! 🤗
Yeah! At least I got a cool badge for all the Hive.
I can't complain haha thank you for checking.
I was shown a lot of support on my post this month so i'm really happy I got to participate.
Take care, hope to see you around before the first!
Aaaaannnnnnd, HOLY CANNOLI, BATMAN! I just realized you and I are practically neighbors, @yems! 😲
I'd popped over to your profile to double check your power up, then scrolled through your blog feed... and saw this post. We used to live in Rollinsford (back around 2004), and I was a Girl Scout leader in Somersworth at that time. Now we're living in Durham - wicked small freakin' world, man! 😃
That is CRAZY haha I am finding a lot of New Englanders on here.
Honestly never thought i'd hear anyone on here talk about Rollinsford, NH though.
Surprised I didn't see that on your profile. I have only been in NH for a few years now but I love it.
Yep, when we were on the previous blockchain (It That Shall Not Be Named 🤣) I had that same experience of bumping into lots of local-ish peeps, and there was talk for a minute about setting up a meetup. Maybe once the world calms down I'll see if there's still interest. And yeah, Rollinsford doesn't even come up in Seacoast NH conversation all that much... lol!
I grew up in Gloucester, MA (technically Magnolia, which is kinda like what Rollinsford is to Somersworth), and my husband grew up in Rochester, NH. We've spent time in both states, but have been in this area for almost twenty years now. I love it too. 😊
