I've been looking to ways to optimise @mattclarke because it was all getting a bit much and I wasn't having so much fun.
I comment as much as I can on other's posts but don't feel too much pressure there other than to respond to everyone who comments on my posts. That part is pretty manageable.
But I earn most from posting so that's where I feel the pressure sometimes. I have a few people who vote for me automatically so if I don't post I don't get the vote.
And of course the posts generate comments to respond to and engage with.
I'm still trying to find the right balance I think. I've started to go to bed a reasonable time again instead of getting caught up in live commenting. That was pretty bad for a while because a lot of people are becoming active when I should be getting ready for bed.
But this week I've done a better job of that.
You're right about having fun though. There really is no point to it if it's not enjoyable. I might as well be doing my other work which is far more lucrative!
Wishing you a fun weekend! 😁
I was just revisiting this post, and noticed you smashed your goal of 1000SP. Congratulations :)
Thanks @mattclarke. I actually earned my way to 1000 SP and then the rest I've bought in tiny bits while the price has been down.
It took me 8 months of solid slog to get to 1000SP and, to be honest, I'm not having as much fun as I used so it makes sense to buy when I can.
I still haven't powered down though and it makes no sense to me to do so.
There seem to be fewer and fewer people to interact with here but maybe that's because I don't post as often. I'm down to twice a day now. 😂
I'm hoping that in one way or another Steem Monsters will be a good little earner although, at the moment, I don't really have a clue what's going on.
I really need to put a couple of teams together (assuming I have enough cards) so I can at last have a bash on Sunday. 😁
I find having a solid stake takes some of the pressure off posting and actually makes it more enjoyable.
Steemmonsters is so much fun. I've been beta testing for nearly a week now, and I have to say, there are a couple of brilliant guys at the helm.
There'll be tournament options for all sorts, from alpha golds to level limited regular cards.
Exciting times :)
Yep. I just need to be patient with myself in the beginning because I have never be involved with anything like this before and there seem to be so many variables to take into consideration. It feels totally overwhelming at this point.
And much of the focus seems to be on the big players who know what they are doing. Hopefully that will change when the tournaments start.
I'm trying to find some time to go through Dave Mccoy's 101 posts and Flauwy's videos so I can make a stab at putting together a team. Then I can ask some questions but so far time has eluded me. 😂
Maybe tomorrow? 😁
I haven't been through Dave's posts, but I can endorse Flauwy's videos as excellent.
To be honest, there's a lot of chance involved; so even if it takes a while to get your head around it, you'll see a few cheeky wins early :)
Well, that's very encouraging to here mattclarke. Thanks for that, that makes me feel a whole lot better. 😂
