Round 3: Free Delegations for 30 days awarded to....

in #contest5 years ago

This week I have decided to support 1 steemians with 4 week delegations and 2 of them with free daily upvotes. To keep life simple I am delegating from my personal account and then leasing SP from MinnowBooster directly for myself. When that lease ends I will then pull back these delegations. It will act as my personal reminder.

Was hoping to give more away and kind of surprised at how few people applied. Hopefully more

1 Winner for a total of 25sp


@marcocosta - 25sp
Now I know one of the requirements was that the person was powering everything up, but there is steem and sbd in this account which would put it to around 75sp. Instead of excluding someone that I feel would benefit from the added SP I'm bending the rule a little so the delegation is for only 25sp instead of 50sp. @marcocosta has also been added to the @minnowbuilder3 account for the next 4 weeks for a free daily upvote.

@steemitblackbelt - 0sp
@steemitblackbelt would be supported, but we are in talks about something even larger. If these talks don't lead anywhere I will gladly support the cause with a delegation. So while no support is being given today, it's just a application is on hold situation.

Minnow Builder Project

Below are people who were added for free daily upvotes to the Minnow Builder project. 3 of them are the winners of delegation and 1 is just a crazy fun steemian that I met on another post of mine when she shared her alter ego with us. Her comment on the post made me check out her account size and she fits perfectly for the Minnow Builder Program.

For those of you that don't know about the Minnow Builder Program it's a program that sells shares for daily upvotes like SBI. 50% of the money goes towards your own daily upvote and then 50% is used for Redfish who we help build their accounts into Minnows. This means that those being supported are hand selected and are steemians adding value to the blockchain. We check the list every few weeks to make sure nobody has turned into spammers and watch for people powering down their accounts. We have created a perfect win-win as people get to profit while helping build a stronger community of active steemians. You can check out the current share sale and get more information.

Added to @minnowbuilder3 for the next 30 days for a free 50% daily upvote:

@marcocosta

Added to @minnowbuilder2 until they reach 500sp for a free 50% daily upvote:
@apinchofhome - This person applied for support with only 15sp, but has since powered up to 300sp. They were recommended by @trincowski and I agreed they deserved support. Since they have powered up and don't qualify for the SP delegation any longer, but they do qualify for Minnow Builder support and are getting daily upvotes until they reach 500sp.

Round 4 already started

Here is Round 4's post. If you know anyone that is powering up their earnings and writing original content who is having RC issues please let them know about this.

Discounted Delegations?

If anyone seeing this happens to be willing to give a discounted delegation to support these efforts let me know. I would be willing to lease up to 1000sp for the efforts I want to do here with a rolling 200sp delegation for 4 weeks each, then the 1 week downtime. That means 1000sp is tied up at all times. Sure that word will spread about what I'm doing here and finding people to delegate to will become easy each week. I open to offers and ideas on how to make this better.

Hola @thedarkhorse, @trincowski! Es el momento de invertir en steemit, comprando acciones, y aumentando el SP, muy agradecida a thedarkhorse,, por la delegación y a trincowski porque me enseño como comprar STEEM, tengo mucho que aprender, sé que poco a poco iré aprendiendo, Feliz Navidad para todos y que el próximo año sea de mucho éxito, cariños y besos.

This is a great time to invest a little into Steem if you can afford to do so. I remember sitting there when Steem was $5 thinking "I wish I bought more when it was under $1". Now we get the opportunity to purchase at 25c and for only $25 someone has what some others paid $500 for (100 steem). Not saying $25 is a little amount of money to everyone as it isn't, but if someone is planning on being here in a year they should be buying some steem asap.

Awesome choices. Thanks for accepting my suggestion! 🍻

Find more for week 4!! I can't believe it's this hard to give away free delegations...lol

Really? Ok, I will keep an eye out. 😮

Maybe my requirement of creating original content and powering up earnings is unreasonable...lol. I've made exceptions if the earnings are staying in someones account, but not if they are withdrawing them.

At current prices it's a mistake to take even a penny out of here if you have any thoughts of sticking around long term. Can't treat this like an ATM machine...or at least I'm not paying to lease SP so you can treat it like one.

Eheheh. I totally agree with you. Now it's the time to take some risk and accumulate some Steem Power.

That's the only way to get the platform more decentralised and less dependent on a a few whales. 😂

Your requirements for this program are very reasonable. However, you might want to contact some of the users with a bit of Steem not powered up. I suspect many of them haven't even learnt what that means.

I am planning a post to detail how to power up and how to use the market place to change sbd to steem. These are both important things that people can do at zero costs, but so many tend to give blocktrades commissions for no reason when they start out.

This will allow me to help people understand with a step by step post how to take care of these things. I have written it in multiple comments lately and need a simple place to point people too.

Good idea. You should put that link at the top of the Delegation Offer Posts. 😉

Im glad to see that you received support from @thedarkhorse. How many more rounds do you plan? :)

Cheers

I'm going to do a few more and see what happens. So far I'm not getting nearly the interest I had expected.

hi @thedarkhorse

If you would like then I can help you promote one of next rounds. Next year already of course.

Drop me an email and we will plan date for your publication (so I would also schedulle my own time to help you - after all it will take some of my time as well).

Of course only if you want it,
Yours
Piotr

Can you look at @gargi
She is having RC issues and can not even comment on post in the #post-promotion room

I'd like people who are interested to apply. They should go to the new post and leave the info that is required.

I gave the info and some direction
You can lead a horse to water but you cant make them drink.
Some personnel responsibility is required

Some personnel responsibility is required

Exactly!

Side note you might want to increase your upvotes on comments as the 27% is going to be dust unless someone protects it in some way.

wolfhart 27% 0.0177 $

Dustsweeper isn't anywhere near perfect as it doesn't have enough VP to take care of all of the dust so lots of it getting missed these days.

OK will do thanks. Guess need to keep it at 30% to be sure until it goes up

With the way vote values have a bad habit of going down right before payout I've been trying to stay at 2.5c right now. Does look like you probably should stay at 35% on the lowest right now for 2c.

wolfhart 31% 0.0196 $

Ok 35%
Since I no longer using the computer it makes its harder to see the vote value so accurately

Thank you @thedarkhorse for the support and @trincowski for the nomination!

Glad to help. If you can please make sure to upvote @minnowbuilder2 posts. The account growth helps yourself, but then also those who follow you in the program. It's a great way for you to pay it forward to the next round of plankton we support. The account posts 1-2 times a week typically so it's not a huge drain on your voting power to support the account. Most recent post is about a member who just turned Minnow!

Definitely! I'm happy to have found this community!
