14 HP from Author and Curation Rewards in a Week. :) My Hive Goals, Week 40, 2022

This is a short sum-up table with the state of my goals in easier TLTR form. The table has only some information, so if you want details, they can be found in the post.

We changed the prefix of the week of the year, again. We are at week 40 and that leaves us 12 weeks until the end of the year. Almost exactly 12 weeks, since December 31st is on a Saturday. That means there are 12 more Hive goals posts remaining, excluding this one, and including the one from January 1st, 2023. Is it enough time to complete the rest of my goals? We'll see...

After a record week, I haven't made any major moves on the Hive Power goal this week, despite having a customary Upbit pump & dump one of these days. I missed the move since I only discovered it when it was halfway back down. At that point, I didn't want to risk any speculative trading.

Let's see what changed since last week regarding my goals.

HIVE Power Goal

I added... 14 HP this week, all from author and curation rewards. I guess this is pretty funny... I'd need about 15-20 years to complete my 1 year HP goal using these kinds of rewards alone. :D

HBD Goal

I stopped this goal in favor of HIVE Power. Initially, the goal was to reach 5000 HBD in savings by the year-end, starting from almost nothing.

LEO Staked

This week I added only 53 LEO to my stake, keeping more liquid for the LPUD. That's 3263 LEO more than when I started tracking this goal, 16 weeks ago.

99 LEO per week are currently needed to complete this goal by the year-end. I might increase this target if I reach it too soon. We'll see when we get there.

Splintershards (SPS) Staked Goal - Completed

The SPS staking goal is COMPLETED!

However, the new SPS rewards from ranked battles come in a staked form and will keep increasing the stake.

348 staked SPS were added last week this way.

Besides what comes staked from the gameplay, SPS goes to the diesel pools.

Maxing Chaos Legion Set*

*) or reaching the limit beyond which I consider upgrading a card not profitable

The overall situation, to better gauge my progress, because I still need to push hard on this goal:

Total CL Cards (incl. reward)Maxed or LimitPercentRemaining
1328262.12%37+15 for limit consideration
Total CL Cards (excl. reward)Maxed or LimitPercentRemaining
995656.56%28+15 for limit consideration

Looks like I need to push harder on this goal. About 3 cards per week need to be (considered) maxed to reach my goal, even without going into the cards that need my final judgment on whether or not to max them or leave them at a certain level I consider optimal.

This week one of the previously considered maxed cards got maxed: Diemonshark.

Besides that, I now consider maxed Silent Sha-Vi and Venari Spellsmith.

I'm still opening packs as I earn more alchemy and legendary potions.

Social Targets

I started the week with 10242 comments.

Increased target: 10k->12k comments by the year-end.

The 10K target for replies is COMPLETED and I won't increase it.

I have currently made 10381 comments, which means 139 comments this week. Finally, I've beaten the average needed to complete this goal... slightly.

With the new comments target, and 12 weeks left in 2022, I need an average of 135 comments per week to reach the goal.

which means 139 comments this week.

This is quite impressive man! I need to step up my game in this respect. However I believe I added more HP than you this week lol.

It wouldn't be hard to add more HP than I did this week, lol. I don't know what happened. I think I had some poorly rewarded posts the week before and I haven't added any extra HP, just to take a little break to catch my breath after the recent weeks.

As for the comments, it's the 3rd week in a row when I try to break that 135-ish average. My usual average before I increased the goal was between 100 and 120. It's incredible how difficult it seems to push the average a little higher.

I haven't counted my comments but I believe that I'm nowhere close to 100 comments per week. I can imagine how difficult it is to increase such an average amount :-)

Good work! Nice to see you progressively reaching your goals. The maxing up of CL cards is a goal of mine too.

Thanks.

How are you doing with it? To me, it seems even harder than my HP goal at this point.

I've only done a few of the common cards, but it will be a challenge. I'm focusing on one's I play with first.

Are you maxing GF or regular?

Are you maxing GF or regular?

Regular. Because they are easier to find in packs. But obviously, someone who maxes GF has a bonus, and sometimes the price is comparable (per BCX needed to max) or only a bit higher for GF.

Thanks. It's my first year on Hive when I set this kind of yearly goals, publicly. They help, immensely.

I have kept a few journals in my life but never was faithful to it.
Once I found a journal from around 1988 and wrote that I would own and operate a bar/restaurant in the Tropics. This is my 17th year now living in the Tropical Highlands of Central America and have owned two bar/restaurants but got out of that business 6 years ago.

Wow! So you actually made it happen and had your bars/restaurants at the tropics! I'm not sure why you closed them. Could have been the difference between the dream you had and the reality which often is harsher.

Oh, how I want to maximize at least one summoner and a few cards to it, to play comfortably in gold once in a while...

Great move, I'm on my way to that pace so far!

Trust me, I had the same thoughts when I was in the lower leagues. Put them into practice. They will definitely help, a lot.

Random question... how do we pronounce your username?

Is it just as it looks, with a 'hard g sound' at the front?

Or 'adrian' with an initial at the front?

(Just something I've always wondered! :D)

Impressed that you have Social Targets. Indeed, the process when taken care well, favors the result itself.

I should be doing the same soon.

Good job and congratulations on beating the average you need. It's going to be a bit tough but I am sure you can pump out 20 comments a day without too many issues.

That's what I thought. Hopefully, we aren't mistaken, lol.
