In the past week, I got 32 hits in 8 States [CA21, FL, ID, KS2, MS, NV3, PA, WA] as well as an international hit in Baku, Azerbaijan. Of those hits, 4 were the 2nd hit on the bill and the rest (28) were the initial hit on the bill. Below is a calendar view of the hits throughout the week:
| Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday |
| 25 | 26 | 27 | 28 | 29 | 30 | 31 |
| 4 | 3 | 7 | 5 | 4 | 6 | 3 |
I came into the week with a 7 day hit streak. I got a hit on every day of this week which extended the streak to 14 days.
Of the 8 States in which I received hits this past week, none were the first hit for that State in 2013. Overall I've received hits in 42 States in 2013. Here's how that stands towards my goal of 46 States hit:

Additionally in the past week I received my first hit in 2 counties bringing my total of counties hit to 549. The newly hit counties were Jefferson KS and Lee MS. I set a goal of 98 new counties hit in 2013, and here's a look at my progress towards that goal:

Of the bills hit in the past week, the longest active bill from the bunch was re-entered 3 Years 289 Days 13 Hours 20 Minutes after I originally entered it. That bill is now 35th on my all-time longest active list.
I made predictions regarding bill entries and hits and new bills with hits for 2013. Here's a look at how I'm doing towards those predictions:
| SoYStart of Year | SoWStart of Week | EoWEnd of Week | WΔWeek Change: Number Added this Week | YΔYear Change: Number Added this Year | PPrediction (for Year) | P/WPrediction for Week: A Week's Share of the Total | PtDPrediction to Date: The Portion of the Prediction that should be Completed so Far | WvPWeek versus Prediction: How the Week's Numbers Stack Up Against the P/W | DvPDate versus Prediction: How the Year's Numbers So Far Stack Up Against the PtD | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bills Entered | 22920 | 27838 | 27955 | 117 | 5035 | 28920 | 115.1 | 26915 | +2 | +1040 |

| Total Hits | 4330 | 5380 | 5412 | 32 | 1082 | 6030 | 32.6 | 5462 | -1 | -50 |
At the current rate I'm entering bills in 2013, I'll end up with 7563 bills entered. To hit my goal of 6000 entries, I'll need to just average 55.4 bills per week for the rest of the year.
Looking at my goal of increasing the percentage that $1s make up of my entries by 1% (started the year at 87.64% so the goal is 88.64%), my percentage is now 88.30% [+0.67%].Regarding my goal of increasing my non-San Francisco FRB entries, here's a table of my current progress:

At this point in the year, if I've entered 67 bills for a particular FRB than I'm on pace to enter 100 bills for that FRB.
I'm continuing to work on the new layout of my weekly updates which includes a scoring system. I think the system is about good enough for a 1.0 version. Currently my thought is that I'll use 14 stats with the most interesting 7 being worth double. One of the stats I'm not so sure should be part of it, so I'm leaning towards dropping it and maybe doubling one more of the stats (I like the idea of having the max base points be 21). Ignoring the doubling, here's a look at how this past week would have played out:
| Past 12 Weeks | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Stat | Week | Min | Max | Score |
| Hits that Changed States | 11 | 8 | 25 | 0.18 |
| Days with Hits | 7 | 6 | 7 | 1.00 |
| Distinct States Hit | 9 | 4 | 15 | 0.45 |
| Hits Beyond the 1st on a Bill1 | 4 | 2 | 15 | 0.15 |
| Bills Active Over a Year2 | 21.4 | 10.6 | 53.4 | 0.25 |
| New Counties | 2 | 0 | 4 | 0.50 |
| Hits from Georgers with Profiles | 2 | 0 | 4 | 0.50 |
| Hits with Notes | 26 | 17 | 42 | 0.36 |
| International Hits | 1 | 0 | 2 | 0.50 |
| Hits on Non-Georges | 2 | 0 | 4 | 0.50 |
| Hits on Wilds | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 |
| Hits in "Sleepy" States | 0 | 0 | 4 | 0.00 |
| Distinct FRBs Hit | 11 | 7 | 11 | 1.00 |
| New Series/Denom/FRB/Block Combo Hit | 1 | 0 | 2 | 0.50 |
| TOTAL | 2.78 | 11.37 | 5.89 | |
| Weekly Score: 3.6 | ||||
The stat I'm thinking about dropping is "Hits on Wilds" and to make up for it, I'd double "Hits with Notes" (the seven stats above "Hits with Notes" are the ones I'm currently planning on doubling).
I continue to creep closer to the 20% slugging percentage. Last week I was 187.6 hits behind. This week I'm 179. The next couple weeks will be rough for this stat as I'll be spending the upcoming weekend in Reno (which usually results in a lot of bills entered).
