My Where's George Week in Review: 12/23/12 - 12/29/12

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 25 hits in 7 States [CA¹⁷, FL², HI, ID, NC, NV², TX]. I still have hits in 44 States in 2012 with none added this week. Additionally I now have hits in 483 counties with 2 new this week: Polk FL, Columbus NC.

Of those 25 hits, 1 was the 3^rd hit on the bill, 4 were the 2^nd hit on the bill, and the rest (20) were the initial hit on the bill. The longest bill active from the bunch was re-entered 3 Years 127 Days 11 Hours 11 Minutes after I originally entered it.

Sunday	Monday	Tuesday	Wednesday	Thursday	Friday	Saturday
23	24	25	26	27	28	29
2	2	2	7	1	5	6

My hit streak has now reached an all-time best (for me) at 84 days. A number of days didn't get their first hit until late in the afternoon this past week, and I am really surprised that the streak is still going. Hopefully it will continue through the New Year holiday.

Taking a look at how my predictions regarding bill entries and hits are going so far, it was a light week for entries and an "on target" week for hits. All three stats have far surpassed prediction:

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 87.64% [+1.35%].

As for the goal of having series 2009 pass series 2003A in number of entries, this has long been completed:

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", not a lot of change as it was a light week for entries. I went a bit overboard in completing this goal:

Just a couple more days left in 2012, and it was a good year for me in regards to Georging. I'll post a wrap-up on the year on New Year's Day as well as my predictions/goals/wishes for 2013.
