Perfectly valid and indeed splendid reasons at the bottom there. I have to admit. My target a long time ago was to break 50K and since then I haven't felt the same oomf to build higher. But I am still about, just not as much so I get you.

I am glad I made the yearly list. Would have been pants to miss that list!

Nice one on the yearly round up! I'll take top 100 seeing as I was away for a few months! Not sure if that's a good thing or not lol 😁

Happy new year to you 🎉

A year or so ago I was told the EL wouldn't scale

I actually remember this event and the individual who made the comment. Funny, we are both here, while she is long gone :)

Shows who is committed and who is not.

Understandably my hive engagement for 2021 dipped a whole lot when compared to 2020 but, i've actually managed to free myself of so many commitments, but im still satisfied with being in the top 30 its a feat i'll call laudable

I've always liked what you're doing here. Not sure why I never joined. Maybe because I talk too much and don't want to be reminded with prizes. I too like to get away though. Far, far away. -50 today though so, outside isn't much fun.

I won't tire of saying it, you really do a fabulous job. Thank you very much for your dedication and commitment to Hive and its people. Happy as always to be among the greats of engagement. May the new year bring you the best things and may we all continue to work together in the enhancement of this beautiful home. A big hug and happy with my place in this top100, which motivates me to keep working and growing.🤗✨😘🥰❤️

I need to be better with my engagement on others posts. Finding a balance between normal work which sucks the life outta me, family, and everything here, can be challenging. But I’m trying.

Happy new year brother.

I'm happy enough to be in the top 25. Engaging can be lucrative and I keep telling people to do it if they want to build a following.

I hope life is treating you well out there. 2022 could be great for Hive if we keep pushing.

!PIZZA

Wow what a great job keep it up

I can't believe I'm in the top 100 despite being a late starter this year 🙌

As for your engagement, I would like to see you around more! Is there any way to balance it so you can have fun outdoors and still post?

I hope the EL lives forever ❤️

You bring something so fun to Hive... And maybe in the future - it won't scale...but for now? It's a blast and everyone here loves it.

I love seeing how I ranked that week and then looking back to see why I did! What pushed me that week, what overwhelmed me that week..

What other ways can we measure our progress on Hive really? I mean...post payout doesn't necessarily show how well you're doing. A whale can come by and vote and that's that! Hehehe. But does that show how connected you are?

Comments! That's what shows the connection to me.

And what you do shows how much I'm taking the time to connect with others. And that's so important.

And then there are prizes too hahahahaha not only that...your post becomes a place where we can meet other genuine engagers!

So what you do is absolutely invaluable. And we so appreciate!! So as long as you're enjoying... We are too! Hehehe

Thanks for every week!

Oh wow, I wouldn't have thought I would be on the list but I'm even in the top 20 😁
Congratulations everyone 👍

Thanks so much for this and also for that list you sent me via @traciyork!

so, I ended with #28 on the final list -- intresting, and maybe of no use at all, but definitely fun to know! and ofc, engagement. tnks for getting together all the numbers, Archer.

!PIZZA, and best wishes for the Year of 2022! Hope it will bring us mush more positive then disenchantments. 2021 have passed quite well, especially for the Hive, isnt it? 🤸

Last year, I powered up 2634 HIVE to Engagement League participants. With the kind sponsors of various numbers (@tarazkp with 260 HP alone for number 10), the prizes were likely knocking on for 3000 HIVE - over 4000 USD at current prices.

That is approximately $1000 USD more than my annual/yearly pension-like income for my multiple disabilities, which is approximately $3000 USD per year (approximately $250 USD per year).

I do think there is still room for the EL

We probably all agree on this. Thank you for what you do, including the power ups. By the way, nice to be in the top 20 of 2021 in the engagement league. Being the 19th is probably not so bad.

Happy New Year to everyone.

Have a nice day. All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.

Can't believe I made the list, I joined pretty late in the year, I think around December or so but this initiative has been a motivation for me truly.

Life does pull one in many different directions, living one and cannot always be here but try our best to keep up with the rest, harmony among the ranks on Hive in supporting each other always.

Last couple of years have been uprooting for many, some not finding firm footing dealing with unexpected surprises, stay safe and enjoy whatever you decide to Asher.

!BEER

Oh wow! I'm in the 55th position! 😆 I hope to do better this year.
Thank you @abh12345 for compilation of the stats and prizes. You are doing amazingly! Wish you an amazing 2022!

I can only hope to top these charts right now. But we all have to begin somewhere, so i march on :)

Time outside is a great reason not to be inside on a computer ... do what brings you joy, and thank you for your hard work!

Thank you for all power ups to people here around and for this league @abh12345.
I am pretty ok with my regular achievement through the year 2021, being at 22. place is not bad :)

Snuck into the T20! :D

I enjoy the EL posts and the conversations on it - it is always (nearly) positive and people have a good time :)

Congrats all
:)

I was wondering why I wasn't there either - I could blame it on the alts, but I think more than likely I've spent more time dicking around on Discord this year and after that I'm in no fit state to comment on anything!

I do not really understand when people say your Engagement League can not scale. There are more and more people joining even if they do not make the top 100 list. How many people are on the list now?

Jan 3, 2021 322 accounts earned a score this week
Jan 3, 2022 456 accounts earned a score this week

True not a big number increase, but more and more people looking for information in an easy to use form on how they are doing. How much longer would it take to process a list of 2000 accounts? That increase above is what about 30% growth in the user of EL? That's actually not bad.

I say keep doing it till the number of users are such that it takes to much time to process and build the table.

Woo-hoo! Who thought I would make it? Not me. Obviously, you are only counting when I was in the EL. Thank you for doing this, it makes me happy to know that I made the list.

I will definitely be coming back in a bit, just to make sure I can still keep up. It has been a good year for me, although getting out there is a challenge between work, family, extended family, travel (Yes! But, not enough), and renovating another house. So good I don't need sleep!

Thanks for everything Asher! @abh12345 You are the best!

You know what why not I'd love to join in on year 5 of engagement league if it is possible. Since that happens to be Gary Vee's favorite number. Plus I'm already doing most of this on a regular basis anyways so why not have some stats to look back at. Hopefully it doesn't consume me too much hahah as I know how my personality gets when it comes to these type of things.

Thanks for having this list. Hope I will be able to make it to the next one end of this year.
Those games really are time consuming - and I completely feel you. Not always possible to be very active.
It is also great to rest after reaching some goals. You could always aim for more and never be satisfied. Really like your approach. I am still on the beginning of my journey, so I need to work a little harder than most of you to catch up.
Mallorca sounds pretty nice!

Wish you a wonderful 2022!

Cheers,

Thank you for see you all the time online and work hard!

I wish you a good time!

Thanks for everything, @abh12345!

Please include my accounts mba2020 and chris.topher thank you so very much, congrats to the top engages :-D

Thanks Asher, for me it's about connecting not reward, although always good to know if one is doing sufficient.

Hope you have recovered and starting to find your feet in your new home and town.

Great see the yearly numbers thanks for putting this together I was surprised where I was in the list at first but then remembered I all but took a total break from hive fir the first 3 or 4 months if the year due to my wife’s time in hospital and then recovery
