A #boringpostwednesday not to be missed.... Only joking, nothing to see here!!

Where to start?? I know the same place I always start.

The amount of steempower we have has been fluctuating a little lately. A few members have given up on Steemit and taken their delegations with them.

This still leaves us with over 143,000SP and a whopping ROI for all members.

The @ssg-community account has almost 2400sp of her own. This is well above the 700sp in our guidelines. For the past 13 weeks we have been constantly powering down 158steem per week to reach our target SP of 700. This has been balanced out by the 160steem (approx) @ssg-community creates per week through curation and post payout. So in essence we have been running at net neutral.

The powerdown has been held and thus our own SP will increase but the total amount of steem in the wallet will decrease. This may sound counterproductive but there is method in my madness.

Once our own SP increases I'll begin to powerdown again, the higher SP will mean a higher powerdown amount of steem, which hopefully should be more than we generate weekly, so should start bringing the SP down towards the 700sp target.

Does that make sense??

You may know, you may not, but what's gone on this week is now in the past and is done. It's time to move on and continue to build the best community here on Steemit.

Just so members are aware, I am now in charge of not only the financial side of @ssg-community but by default the bot side of it too. DON'T PANIC.... There is a plan and have faith! The team behind the scenes are on it and, to be honest you should not notice any difference.

Tickets continue to be bought and the number of prizes to the #monsterraffle still continues to grow.

Don't forget to keep getting the word out, we need to let all of steemit know they are welcome to take part.

So make a #monsterraffle post, find someone else's and resteem them all day long.

I am @welshstacker and I'm off back to the asylum.
