Looks like you had a good turnout. 15% is not too shabby at all.
When you consider the UK geography and transport system, it was pretty well attended.
I would have been there too except for a very important prior engagement and I know others had problems with the date change.
100 active UK steemians represents 2% of the total active steemians globally.
This thing that we are all involved in is still just a little baby in technological terms.

It can't walk yet and needs time to find it's feet and direction of travel.
In a few years time we will be in totally different territory and the current steem eco system will look very odd looking back.
It was a good day and the people were somewhat different from last years event. If this is your alt account then I'm struggling to figure out just who you are?
My main account is @molometer as it states on the mast head of the @steemimages landing page.
This account deals with my manual curation 100% of the time so I don't flood my feed on my main account.
I created this before we had the option to hide resteems and now it's become a bit of a habit for me.
I'm learning a lot about the steem curation process. Using it to curate things that I find interesting but may not be everyone's taste. Politics, economics and blockchain tech stuff as well as a few good writers. Yourself included.
Take a look at the stuff I curate on here and you will see.
Intriguing observation. Different. How so?
I find myself having less time to comment these days and curate. This means votes without comments, which is better than nothing.
Some had dropped off the radar who were enthusiastic last year. During the last SC, the price was $1.69, it makes a difference to some it seems.
I guess some people look to the short term whereas steem is only just getting started. We literally just came out of beta! so this is really a brand new platform.
It's a bit like the dollar coke share. If you bought one coke share back at the start and reinvested the dividends you'd be sitting on millions today?
Some people will never see the long game as an option. In this world of instant gratification.
