I should have known. π€¦ββ
This morning, I found this post by @brittandjosie -- HIVE POWER UP CALLING THE SPONSORS -#hive-pud-intl HIVE POWER UP DAY ~ CALLING ALL HIVE PUDDERS.
Whuuuttt?!!!
Geez, had I known about #hive-pud-intl earlier on, I would have waited a day before I powered up the little liquid hive that I had loitering in my wallet.
Our very own @hiveph is also running from today a month-long power up contest - check out the announcement post here: Hive PH Power Up Challenge Starts Now for the details.

Since this challenge is intended for Filipinos with rep score below 60, I did not intend to join (though there are plans in the works for high-rep members). I already powered up what liquid hive I had yesterday (May 31st).
Hive-PUD-Intl
The rewards are enticing, imagine up to 3500HP delegation for three weeks!
I looked up @streetstyle, who originally initiated this challenge to find out more about the mechanics and found them here ->>Gee Hive Guy, It's the HIVE Signal - May 1, 2020 - HIVE-PUD-INTL - [hive] [blockchain] [community]
TL;DR:
MUST have a reputation score BELOW 70.00 ( so 69.99 is good & Can participate.) AND more than 300 HIVE POWER (prior to HIVE-PUD-INTL) BUT LESS than 8000 HIVE Power.
MUST have a reputation score of 39 & ABOVE (so rank of 38.99 will Not Win)
MUST have at least 1 HIVE Post in their blog about HIVE-PUD-INTL
MUST Power Up HIVE COIN on June 1st, 2020
Write a blog about it with screen caps of the power up.
use HIVE-PUD-INTL hash tag
So yeah, let me give myself a face palm here. π€¦ββ
I should have waited a day. Haha.
Nonetheless, let me still give it a shot. Who knows?!
Here's a screenshot of my HP before the power up. Time Stamp: 06/01/2020 05:44am
I also entered this screenshot to @hiveph's PUD contest.
Finally, here's a screenshot of my HP after the power up. Time Stamp: 06/01/2020 05:46am
Healthy HP πͺ
There shouldn't be any reason to regret though, as this still made me grow my HP a little bit more which means I can do more with my account and get more curation rewards. I am ~270HP shy to 2000HP and I am quite positive I can get there before the month ends.
Bet?π
