Good morning folks
Everyone ready for the hardfork in a few hours?
Fingers crossed?
Toes as well?
More supplies laid in than you had for Y2K?

Well before that happens I thought I would do a recap on what happened with last nights League of Helpienesss Hangout.

For those who don't know, this is a chat that takes place every Monday at 6pm EST and is hosted by @meno and @paulag.

The idea behind it is very simple, its a contest to see who has "helped" out the community the most in the week by posting, commenting, upvoting, increasing their steempower and various other metrics.

The more you grow your account and help others grow theirs the more of a "helpie" you are :)

So last night started with a discussion and explanation by a few users (@meno, @llfarms and @themarkymark to name a few) on what can be expected from the various changes coming in HF20. If you are still confused about whats going to happen later today you might want to check out the replay for some down to earth, laymen-esque information on such things as the voting changes, curation rewards and timing changes, etc.

As usual @paulag did an amazing job of tabulating the information for all those participating in the contest this week. I decided to throw my hat in the ring for the first time this week as I wanted to see what my score was and if I was truly engaging that much more as I thought I was.

The results were tallied, the envelope opened and the spreadsheet posted

The winner for I don't know how many consecutive weeks in a row
@eaglespirit

This woman is a BEAST folks
Always an incredible number of comments, replies to comments, always write a large amount (no one sentence liners from her, nope, you get a quality reply from her folks) and also upvoted almost 200 different authors.
Now that's spreading the love around!!!

Regaining his position in the top 3 after being knocked out last week is
@cryptoandcoffee
Again a huge amount of comments and replies here.
Now that's engagement folks.
Hope your significant other isn't getting jealous here C&C LOL

And well what do you know? The rookie @ancientknowled3 himself makes an amazing and totally unexpected initial showing in spot #3
Wow, truly amazing
Since this was my first week actually participating I was just hoping not to embarrass myself and was just looking to see if my engagement had increased like I had hoped
WELL APPARENTLY IT DID

Prizes are provided each week out of @meno's own pocket and I gotta tell you folks, this guy must have a LOT of clothes with pockets as his generosity seems to be never ending.

Congrats to @eaglespirit on your win of 10 steempower
Congrats to @cryptoandcofee for your secondplace earning 6 steempower
and myself took home 4 steempower

That's 20 STEEMPOWER each week folks
Simply for doing what you already do

Thanks again to @meno for the generous prize pool and I hope to see more people there next week.

Want to be part of helpie?

We are always looking for new members, people that understand the value and power of communities. Givers, not takers. If that sounds like you, then we want to get to know you too. Know that we always have scouts out there, looking for people who make awesome content, who are kind to others and believe in this blockchain.

Here's an incomplete list of scouts: @paintingangels @eonwarped @zipporah @socent

There plenty more, and many of them hangout in the mothership Peace Abundance and Liberty Network. So, if you are on discord, this is the ocean you would want to be swimming in.
