This may be the last follower report I do, depending on the response. As mentioned before, this script takes 6 hours to run and a bit of data massaging time. As I hinted at last week, @jesta's been hard at work and recently launched a tool to track these changes over time called SteemDB. Also @heimindanger's excellent tool Steemwhales now tracks follower counts as well.
Steemdb.com
Steemwhales.com
That said, I do enjoy looking at this data in terms of a competitive analysis over time which neither of these tools yet do. Let me know in the comments what you think as far as if this report is still useful.
Rising Stars!
These accounts have moved up the ranks the most since the last report.

New Accounts This Week
These accounts are not only new to Steemit this week, but they've landed right on the top 100 most followed list (and well deserved, IMO)!

The "Trying Too Hard" List
This may be a bit controversial, but these accounts appear to be trying too hard (IMO). They either purchased followers or they follow thousands and thousands of accounts and are the recipients of the "follow back" effect. Either way, I've chosen to exclude them from the list because, IMO, their content is not at the same level as others on this list who grew their follower count organically. As more people game the follower report (or are the victims of follower bots), this information will become less useful for determining who others are interested in listening to.
