DAY 5 STEEMHOP GRIND🥱🥲
Day 5 of the steemhop grind and I’m fully in leaderboard mode now. Opened http://steemhop.org this morning and my only goal was to beat my day 4 high score of 21 and finally crack TOP 52. First 20 minutes were pure pain. Died at 0, died at -1, died at 1. I kept running straight into red cars and one time a train just smoked me on the tracks because I didn’t wait. The map is still that same orange desert with the little white bunny with the red bow hopping around. Cars were flying in both lanes, purple and orange ones, and the coins were everywhere tempting me. I kept telling myself coins don’t matter, survival does. But it’s hard when you see 3 coins in a row and your brain says go get them. “TOP 52” was sitting at the top left the whole time judging me. Then I finally found some rhythm and the runs started clicking. Got to 5, then 12, then 19 before I got greedy and tried to grab a coin on the train tracks and got clipped. That was annoying but I could feel myself improving. The timing was getting better, I wasn’t panicking as much when cars came fast. My best run of the day was when I hit 32. I remember it clearly because I was holding my breath the whole time. Dodged 2 purple cars back to back, waited for the gap on the train tracks, cleared it clean, then got through 3 more lanes of traffic. 15, 20, 25, 30, 32. I died right after but when I saw that number pop up I was hyped. That’s 11 more than day 4. Coin total also went up to 59 during that session because I was actually picking some up safely instead of chasing them. The rest of the session was just trying to repeat that 32 and not fall back into bad habits. Had runs where I died at 2 because I rushed, and one terrible run where I went -2 because I spawned and immediately hopped into a car. But I also had solid runs of 14, 19, and another 21 to tie my old PB. The hardest part about steemhop is staying patient. You can play perfect for 10 seconds and then one bad hop sends you back to the STEEM HOP logo screen. I must’ve seen that big orange logo like 30 times today. The trains and cars get faster the higher you go too, so at 30+ it’s actually stressful. My hands were sweating on the last run to 32 but I didn’t choke. Ending day 5 with a new personal best of 32 and 59 coins total. Still not on TOP 52 but I’m so much closer now. Day 1 I was dying at 7, day 4 I hit 21, now day 5 I’m at 32. The progress is real if I keep grinding. For day 6 the goal is 40+ and actually getting my name on that leaderboard. I need to stop going for coins unless they’re safe and just focus on clean hops. The streak is still alive and I’m not dropping it. Day 5 done, new PB, and I’m coming back tomorrow to take that TOP 52 spot 💪 THANKS FOR VISITING
