My Where's George Week in Review: 09/16/12 - 09/22/12

Hover over this explanation for more detailsThe nerd that I am, I chose to post once a week a summary of my previous week's Where's George activity in comparision to my goals for the year.

In order to make the charts fit, I had to abreviate the column headers. Each header is now hoverable for an explanation.

In the past week, I received 32 hits in 8 States [AZ, CA²³, IL, MO, NV², NY, PA, TX] as well as an international hit in Sheffield, United Kingdom. I still have hits in 43 States in 2012 with none added this week. Additionally I now have hits in 460 counties with 3 new this week: Ogle IL, Oswego NY, Nueces TX.

Of those 32 hits, 1 was the 3^rd hit on the bill, 4 were the 2^nd hit on the bill, and the rest (27) were the initial hit on the bill. The longest bill active from the bunch was re-entered 3 Years 244 Days 19 Hours 56 Minutes after I originally entered it. This bill is currently my 8th longest active all-time.

Sunday	Monday	Tuesday	Wednesday	Thursday	Friday	Saturday
16	17	18	19	20	21	22
6	6	2	3	5	6	4

Another week without a hit-less day puts my current streak at 18 days.

Taking a look at how my predictions regarding bill entries and hits are going so far, it was a positive week on all counts. Looks like I will surpass my predictions for the year for each in October:

Based on the goal of 5000 bill entries, here's how I'm doing towards my bill entry goals. Starting off with my goal of increasing the percentage that $1s make up of my entries by 1% (started the year at 86.29% so the goal is 87.29%), my percentage is now 87.27% [+0.98%]. Getting close to being in completion range.

As for the goal of having series 2009 pass series 2003A in number of entries, this is completed and 2009 is almost now at a 500 entry lead:

And for my goal of decreasing San Francisco "L" FRB entries below 50.0% while increasing Boston "A", Cleveland "D", St Louis "H", Philadelphia "C", Minneapolis "I", and Kansas City "J", all FRB's went in the desired direction this week. I will have all of the planned inserted bills done within two weeks, and then it will be interesting to watch how things hold up:

It was another good week for hits, and September looks like it's going to be a nice recovery from the disappointment that was August.
