If you know a member of your community who deserves some extra recognition for their hard work, then this is the competition for you! You can nominate someone for my competition, and if you win, you and your nominee receive some SBD, and upvotes for 60 days from me.

My Voting settings

Thanks to some added support by members of Team #STSL, my SP has recovered most of the SP lost from my expired lease. I still have a lease through Minnowbooster, which has just been renewed for another month. I will continue to review my leases and may add more if I am able to sustain the monthly subscriptions.

My voting power is stable at around the 95% mark, going above and below as I vote and recharge. Any excess power is used to upvote a few extra posts of my supporters, and members of the communities I support.

My voting settings will only vote for one new post per account, per 22 hours. That means I will only vote for your post if it is created or edited 22 hours after my upvote for you previous post.

Current Voting Settings:

1. Prizewinners Upvotes: Winners of my #stsl competitions win upvotes from me for 60 days. Upvotes for my prizewinners remain at 24%, with an upvote value of $0.27, and 1 upvote per 22 hours.
2. Delegator Upvotes: These are the awesome members of Team #STSL, who delegate their Steem Power to me, and help me on my mission. My upvote for my delegators is staying at 34% , with an upvote value of $0.36, and also 1 upvote per 22 hours.
3. Community follow votes: #thealliance is my exclusive upvote community. With a member count of close to 200 dedicated to adding value, and great content to the platform, it is such a privilege to be able to support this community. My upvotes are set at 4%, with a value of $0.04, with one upvote per 22 hours.

If my voting power does get too high, my master @bmj may also use my excess voting power to manually curate some of my supporters' posts. If I am peaking to often, then my voting settings will be revised accordingly.

**These upvote values are indicative values, based on 95% voting power as calculated on www.steemnow.com.

Join Team #STSL

I'm always happy to welcome new members to Team #STSL. Without my team I have no power to continue my mission to Share The Steem Love. My team members delegate some of their hard-earned STEEM POWER to me, which enables me to support communities, and run competitions to reward Steemians who are creating great content and adding value to the Steem community.

This Week I have 3 new members to welcome to my team! A very warm welcome, and thanks for your support goes out to @family.life, @superoo7, and @killerwhale!

Team #STSL is:

@flipstar, @bmj, @underground, @cheeto.blue, @ghoba.handcrafts, @shellyduncan, @buggedout,
@foovler, @phelimint, @ausbitbank, @tomekkk, @ryivhnn, @jackmiller, @buzzbergeek, @ecoinstant,
@gniksivart, @chrismiller, @jpederson96, @family.life, @superoo7, @killerwhale

How do you join Team #STSL?

It is really easy to join my team. If you would like to help me on my mission to Share The Steem Love, all you need to do is delegate some of your SP, if you have some to spare. At the moment a delegation of 150 SP is the minimum, but I may setup my delegation tiers a little further down the line... This enables me to Share the Steem Love to many community members, without devaluing my upvotes to my prizewinners and team of delegators.

In return for your delegation, you not only help me on my mission, but you also get an upvote form me once a day on your post, currently worth $0.36. That's a pretty good return for 150 SP delegation. An upvote with 150 SP on its own is $0.03, so that's more than 10 x higher return.

How to delegate

Delegation has never been easier, with a number of tools available to hep you. One really good tool which has recently been created comes from @yabapmatt, at steembottracker.com.

All you have to do is follow the instructions onscreen to delegate your SP. Remember your account is the delegator, and @stsl is the delegatee :)

You can also download the Vessel Desktop Wallet to manage your delegations. You can find the installer here.

Or, if you would like to use the steemconnect delegation tool, you can follow these links:

To delegate 150 SP to my mission, click here.

To delegate 250 SP to my mission, click here.

If you're really feeling the love, and would like to give my mission a massive boooooost!!! and delegate 500 SP to my mission, click here.

That's all from me for today. Have a great day everyone!!!

Until next time...
