Steemhop leaderboard grind day 8, 2 days for season to end
And I have to be among top 20 to earn 馃槳
But I am still at 58 day 8 leader board grind
Day 8 and I鈥檓 still here on steemhop like it鈥檚 a full time job now. The season ends in 2 days and the pressure is real because only top 20 get the rewards. I checked the leaderboard this morning and I鈥檓 sitting at 58. Fifty eight. Not even close. I started the week thinking I could easily push into top 30 but the competition is insane. Everyone is grinding nonstop and the scores keep jumping every few hours. I鈥檝e been playing since day 1, same chicken, same desert, same trains and cars, and my best score is still stuck in the 70s. Meanwhile people in top 20 are hitting 200+ like it鈥檚 nothing. My thumb hurts, my eyes hurt, and I鈥檓 still tapping.
The runs today were just pain. I鈥檇 get to 20, feel good, then die to a train I swear came out of nowhere. Then I鈥檇 get to 15, then 8, then die to a car at the first lane. There鈥檚 no consistency. You can play perfect for 30 seconds and then one wrong hop sends you back to the STEEM HOP screen. I watched some replays from top players and they鈥檙e not even human. The timing, the patience, the way they wait for two lanes to clear at once. I try to copy it and I just panic and jump into a purple car. I鈥檝e probably done 200 runs today alone. Each time I tell myself "this is the one" and each time I end up at 10 or 12 and rage quit for 5 minutes before opening it again. That鈥檚 what day 8 feels like. Tired but you can鈥檛 stop.
What鈥檚 making it worse is that 2 days left means this is basically my last chance. If I don鈥檛 hit top 20 by the end of day 10, all this grinding was for nothing. No rewards, no rank, just another season wasted. I keep refreshing the leaderboard and watching my name stay at 58 while people below me are climbing. Some guys jumped 10 spots overnight. How? Are they not sleeping? I鈥檓 here calculating how many points I need per run to even get to 40, then 30, then 20. The gap is huge. I need to average way higher scores but my brain is fried. I know the spawns, I know the sound cues, I know when to wait, but my hands just mess up. That鈥檚 steemhop. It doesn鈥檛 care how long you鈥檝e played. Day 1 or day 8, you can still die at 2.
So now it鈥檚 just me vs the clock. Two days to climb 38 spots. I鈥檓 not gonna lie, it feels impossible right now but I鈥檓 not deleting the tab. I鈥檒l keep grinding tonight, tomorrow, and the last day. Maybe I鈥檒l get lucky and hit a 100+ run that pushes me up. Maybe I鈥檒l choke again and stay at 58. Either way I started this season saying I鈥檇 go hard and I鈥檓 not stopping on day 8. Even if I鈥檓 tired, even if my score isn鈥檛 moving, even if top 20 feels far. Steady grinding is what got me here and steady grinding is what I鈥檓 doing till the season ends. Let鈥檚 see if this chicken can make it.
THANKS FOR VISITING
