By popular request (one person), the top 100 EL scores for 2021 along with some chat on prizes and excuses as to why the author didn't make the top 100 馃槼
Sorry, can't engage right now, starring at 馃敟
Last year, I powered up 2634 HIVE to Engagement League participants. With the kind sponsors of various numbers (
Not bad at all I think!
A year or so ago I was told the EL wouldn't scale, and it should be the various interfaces/apps to collect and present data such as engagement. I would agree with the first point if we had 100,000+ accounts commentating each day, but we not even close, even in a bull market of sorts.
As far as interfaces/apps presenting the data, I'd like to see that. Although, what about checks on automated commentary gaming the numbers, prizes, and a 'hub' for folks to drop in and say hello.
I do think there is still room for the EL, but if enough people tell me otherwise then I'll take note. Until then, into year 5 we go!
So the table below has the data from the 2021, everyone who ever has asked to be added to the EL participants list has been included (even those who asked to be removed from the weekly table - Galen (4th), Denise (3rd), to name two 馃檪 )
I've removed the vote data for space reasons, and votes being only a minor engagement metric with regards to total score.

So what about the author, why isn't he on the list? Umm yeah, apologies for not being as active in the commentary as I once was.
If I totaled the scores of abh12345 and alts, I would sneak into the list at number 72 - not terrible, but not as engaging as previous years.
I'm still here though! It's just that Hive has changed for me in the past year or so. Games (mainly SL and RisingStar) have become more time consuming (those renting SL cards will understand!), and there are now other opportunities to earn tokens.
The other reason, which has come more to the fore since I moved to Mallorca and became fully remote - I like being outside more! And as the day job roots me to this chair for 8 hours, I feel the need to move and rest my eyes. Of course, many others have office/screen jobs, so this doesn't just apply to me.
The other, slightly more 'worrying' to admit, is that my account has (for me, I'm not aiming to be a Hive don or a top 20 earner) reached a level I am happy with. This could all change in a moment, and I could be back in the trenches looking for extra eyes to visit my content. For now though, I hope there are plenty of others in 'build mode', and I can continue as I am.
Thanks as always for supporting the EL, and for providing feedback and engagement to Hive's content.
Happy New Year!
