I'm not too good at playing games. I don't live at a desk on my computer. But I do try to comment on all those who have commented on my blog. I've resteemed this post @davemccoy and I've had comments from @abh12345 although if I remember, when I've visited him he has not many posts upon which to comment. And I would be happy to know that others are reading my comment posts as I've had some eye openers with @amariespeaks @traciyork @spiritualmatters @lilygolightly @hanen @vaansteam and mostly I cannot keep up with all the blogs I try to follow, @beeyou @mudcat36 @coolguy123 @arcange @ravenruis @splendorhub even @cheetah although I cannot remember her name@,and @appiepearl @sykochica
I look at a daily comp' like @traciyork's and mean to get back, but I am hours and hours in front of America and you begin the day as I'm going to sleep, so I never quite know what time is involved. For instance :- this post of yours went up four hours ago. At noon on Tuesday 13/2/18 yes! 😉

Hi @simon62. This one isn’t a game. Not really. What Dave is trying to let our newbies know is that it’s important to engage with each other on here. It’s important to build relationships. That’s great that you are meeting other people and commenting. That is a great start. Are you curious if you’re curating correctly? Or commenting/engaging enough with others?
Dave is letting our newbies know that they can ask Asher (@abh12345) to be a part of his league. No work is required on our end, just Asher’s 😬. He will pull up everyone’s data of activities on here and give everyone a score, if you will. A ‘ranking system’ to know how well you are doing on Steemit. If you made it on to League 1, great. Means you are upvoting at the right time. If you made it on to League 2, even better! It means you are building relationships and engaging with others. It’s very important to meet people both on your blog and on the blogs of your favorite authors.
Thank you for stopping by my blog. I remember your name, new member. I’m just very behind with replies but I will be sure to catch up. I will make sure to visit your blog as well. Have a good night!
So funny with @cheetah, hehe. I don’t think you have to follow the cheetah, but only if you are interested of course.
Not follow, exactly, but she referenced me and her robot found stuff I'd been looking for. Her upvote are still upvote. My posts are not exactly copy/paste, but I am giving lots of WW1 era info, so I can expect a few cross-ref. That's ok, I said from my intro that I was copying recipes 100year old for everyone's benefit. Now here, as books disappear, we are beginning a universal library of useful info. You don't have to like. One day in future at some family disturbance, you'll be able to say, I knew a fella once back in the old steemit who wrote an etiquette post that just answers that query right on the point. 😉
I think it is great that you are preserving the recipes and WW1 history here on the blockchain. Just be sure to cite your source at the bottom of you blog. I know it can be a pain because you're not on a desktop, but you should still make this a rule. There are many on here that may frown on your page when the cheetah stops by.
I did see a post where cheetah stopped by and referenced Wiki. Be sure to use quotes as much as you can if it's not in your own words and cite the source at the end.
I'll stop by that post on your blog and leave a comment on how you can do this @simon62.
Cool. I have referenced all WW1 on a number. If one takes the time to read the whole, no where is there ref that I am author, but all 100 year old are, 1. Grandma's recipes from her book, which I've since found out is ref. to another book, as mentioned, 2. I have also mentioned. Those which are not, are either obviously now - Clifton St, GC.; my fav. recipe - pineapple crumble and coconut custard.; 3. and signed poetry. So your comment is deserved, however it also shows that you aren't reading my posts. I will ref. www when it is used.
Thank-you. 😇
Lol, you are right @simon62. I only did a quick peruse of your blog to look for the cheetah comments. It was way past my bedtime and I didn’t have much time to read through your blog. I’ll be sure to stop by and check it out with more time available.
Only reason I wanted to stop by quickly was to show you how to add the quotation or citation in case you were not familiar. Many of our newbies may not know how to do this. It took some time for me to learn.
I know it must be challenging writing every character out with your phone. (I read that part 😉) I use my phone often too because I’m just too tired to get on a laptop sometimes. I’m glad you decided to start a library on here of sorts. Will be interesting to see how it all pans out.
Thank-you. My friend Michael Wallace, was yesterday (Valentine's Day) talking me into writing a book, my story of my experience, in good story telling mode. I had visited with him to buy his text books, and try to talk him into blogging snippets on steemit.com

-And I believe he said available on Amazon.
-He and I were both 'students' of Mark Gruner, many years ago in our youth, and Michael has written, from my studies, the world's best books on numbers and their applications in human understanding. So Valentine's Day ended up being a day of intense study and I spent very little time on steemit. And therefore, for the perusal of those who read comments and replies, a short quote from Pythagoras : It is better wither to be silent, or to say things of more value than silence? Sooner throw a pearl at hazard than an idle or useless word; and do not say a little in many words, but a great deal in a few.
