In this video, I played three bullet games and voiced out my thoughts as I played them. Bullet can be a lot of fun during time scrabble as you can notice in my victory in Game 2 against a 2500+ player.

I used to play EaFc mobile on my Samsung note 10 before, I think I got addicted to it. For more than a year since I returned to using an IOS device, I totally forgot I could play again.

One of the reasons I stopped playing was the app was frequently crashing and the network was always bad. Lost so many games through bad internet.

### An IOS Game Test


It feels the same and even better, There has been improvements over the years as seen in my video.

- The Graphics are a lot better. As an Arsenal fan I feel my players look very much real.

Bukayo Saka; Our Star boy Celebration was spot on!

- controls are easier: I tried everything. dribbles, I even tried scoring from outside the box (worked even though it was on easy mode)




### Off topic


I won the test game against man city, which happened to win Arsenal the league.

**could this be a sign?** I hope so, Nothing would give me so much joy than to see us win the premier league. It’s never happened since I started watching football. I was 3 years old the last time Arsenal won the premier league Title!

#### Conclusion

Back to playing games on my IPhone, I’d start more gaming review, I look forward to another detailed review of this game and also many others. Interestingly EaFc Mobile has a very good Reddit group of devoted players. Not so bad to share some EaFc hive links there :)

Hello everyone,

I competed in the Hive chess 960 tournament hosted by @sammy00. I couldn't finish the event because I had a class but I had above 30 minutes of playing on record with analysis, thoughts and unfolding drama!

I lost the first game in a middle checkmate! very dramatic as I was eyeing one as I got caught up. I just hope viewing the content is possible as it might just not be in a suitable video view as I used my phone today and not computer. I think it's going to be best viewed on 3speak website.

**Hivechess is played every friday on lichess.org hosted by @stayoutoftherz! For more information, join the community and follow the host for reminders and tag**

We have Nigeria as the top leading African country in The Crypto Market. Other top countries on africa are South Africa, Zimbabwe, Ghana and Kenya.

However, the recent problems Nigerians are facing in accessing their Crypto assets is alarming. it begs the question to if cypto is illegal or accepted by the government?

In this video, I briefly introduced the topic and answered the question.

Thanks for watching!

Hello everyone, Today is @eddiespino's Birthday. Among many other things, Eddie is a very good friend and Guardian to me. I didn't know today was his birthday early, I could have prepared better.

Along this post is a short video I made to wish him a happy birthday, It also shows wishes from some friends. I have wishes from @pacoandujar & @starstrings01.

> Hola a todos, Hoy es el cumpleaños de @eddiespino. Entre otras muchas cosas, Eddie es un muy buen amigo y Guardián para mí. No supe que hoy era su cumpleaños con suficiente antelación, podría haberme preparado mejor.

> A lo largo de este post hay un video corto que hice para desearle un feliz cumpleaños, También muestra los deseos de algunos amigos. Tengo deseos de @pacoandujar, @starstrings01

**3 Things I've Learnt From Eddiespino / 3 cosas que he aprendido de Eddiespino**

- **Hard Work pays:** Eddie is one of the most hardworking man i know on Hive. I wonder if he ever gets to rest! I admire is hardworking spirit and it motivates me to work hard too. When i spoke to him on my interview, I got to see the amout of work he puts on a daily basis. It's a whole lot.

- **Stay Humble:** Even with the Amount of Work he puts in, He still remains very humble and approachable. I never feel uncomfortable talking about anything. He is always ready to listen and always responds!.

- **Improve your life by Learning Everyday:**

Eddie once said "Take it (Hive) Step by step, Don't get over frustrated if you don't understand everything right away. None of us did, not even the witnesses on hive understand everything on the first day."

One thing I've learned from Eddie is to keep learning and improving. No matter how difficult something can prove to be, we all can do it.


**El trabajo duro paga:** Eddie es uno de los hombres más trabajadores que conozco en Hive. ¡Me pregunto si alguna vez llega a descansar! Admiro su espíritu trabajador y me motiva a trabajar duro también. Cuando hablé con él en mi entrevista, pude ver la cantidad de trabajo que realiza diariamente. Es mucho.

- **Mantente humilde:** Incluso con la cantidad de trabajo que realiza, sigue siendo muy humilde y accesible. Nunca me siento incómodo hablando de nada. ¡Él siempre está listo para escuchar y siempre responde!.

- **Mejora tu vida aprendiendo todos los días:** Eddie dijo una vez: "Tómalo (Hive) paso a paso, no te frustres demasiado si no entiendes todo de inmediato. Ninguno de nosotros lo entendió, ni siquiera los testigos en Hive entendieron todo el primer día". Una cosa que he aprendido de Eddie es a seguir aprendiendo y mejorando. No importa cuán difícil pueda resultar algo, todos podemos hacerlo.

Feel free to check below one of my episodes that featured the birthday celebrant./ No dudes en consultar a continuación uno de mis episodios en los que se celebraba el cumpleaños.

Hello Everyone,

It's been a while I did a video and I'm so excited to share this one with you. @finguru wrote a very good article explaining reasons why you should publish at least one post everyday on Hive.

#### [7 Reasons Why You Should Publish A Blog On Hive Everyday](https://ecency.com/hive-153850/@finguru/7-reasons-why-you-should)

While I think it is a great article, I believe it is not an easy feat. I've tried it and failed so many times. I finally succeeded in writing everyday throughout the last month.

In this video, I shared tips on what you need to do to write daily.

For those that might not watch the video, here is a summary.

____

#### Tips / What you Need to know For Blogging Daily on Hive.

____

- **Votes are Not Guaranteed!:**

Yes, Writing everyday gives you a better chance of earning on Hive, However you need to know that votes are not guaranteed and you can't always expect to be rewarded high everyday. I explained this point with an example. You can make a $10 post 7 times which amounts to the same thing as blogging twice and earning $35 each. What I'm saying is, if you intend to blog everyday for more rewards, you would likely fail especially if you are a newbie.

- **Stay Motivated:**

This is another important thing. You need to have a driving force that would enable you to keep showing up everyday. Finguru in his post listed benefits for daily blogging and I think those are really great reasons to do so. Another one is you get Hivebuzz badges created by @arcange if you blog daily. I was happy to get one recently!


- **Create a Writing Timtable:**

Honestly, It's easier to accomplish your goal of blogging daily if you set a blogging time. I used to write everyday from the hours of 3-5am every morning. Choose a convenient time and write! Don't forget that you can always post anytime, Scheduling posts can also work well!

- **Hive has so many communities & Contests and Prompts - Use them!**

It's easier if you spread your wings, there are so many communities you can write in. I have mine, Most of my articles are either book reviews, movie reviews, Chess or talking about my minimalist lifestyle. Find yours and daily blogging would be easy.


I hope you found this video and content helpful. Feel free to check my Hive series below. You can see my conversations with Hivers around the world in two different seasons.

### What a start to an Hive chess season!

I have alot of excuses for my performances but even on my best day, it would be difficult to see myself on the podium with tha names and ratings I see there.

While I wait for @stayoutoftherz to identify who the winner is, I must say, if he plays all, It would be next To impossible to stop him.

I couldn't record my gameplay so i made a video to highlight and analyze some games played in the tournaments. I would resume my Hivechess study too during the weekends to cover more games.

I would appreciate more views on my videos and support as I would actively be supporting the price pool better than I did in previous seasons.

The first game featured the tournament winner's game against CM @sawko , I think black was better and should have traded queens and enjoyed the two bishops minor ending.

Second was my win against @beyondhorizonmm , I think it was a great game decided by one pawn.

The last game was between my onboardee @iammanythings1 and @kintokris - They battled again today and it was a very dominant play by the latter.

According to @iammanythings1 on the phone, he says Hive chess is very hard.

What do you think? Is this going to be the toughest seasons ever?

25% of HBD rewards on this post would go to @chesspricepool, I still have difficulties doing it automatically when it comes to videos on 3speak
