Actifit: First Update Post HF20 + Plank Competition Winners + Upcoming Competition!

Howdie wonderful steemians and Actifitters!
So we just passed through a major update to our Steem blockchain, HF20. Yes it's been a bumpy ride (still is), but as things are straightening up we are looking forward for resuming our normal processes, and to the benefits of new features brought by HF20.

HF20, Voting Power (RCs) & Rewarding Actifit Reports

So as HF20 took place, most if not all accounts' voting power (or now Resource Credits, Manas,...) have had a major reset due to a flaw in the code, and hence led to a great decrease in the ability to properly upvote or reward posts.

As the ability to upvote and post to the Steem BC has been resumed, and as of now the VP (based on Mana) is at around 30% as of now.What this means is that it will probably take around 3 or more days for Actifit account to fully replenish its relevant RCs.

We aim to ensure that all Activity reports receive rewards, yet as of this instance the exact details of all VP, RC, Mana are not fully clear at the moment, so we are taking this day or few more days to aim to better comprehend how this process will work, but also to ensure that our voting and rewarding scripts will function properly provided the changes that took place.

Having said that, once we resume our voting and rewarding behaviour, we will aim to reward all posts which were created since HF20 and which were not rewarded yet, and reward those with both Steem upvotes and AFIT tokens. The Steem upvotes will probably be lower than usual due to the amount of upvotes we will need to cast, but also to ensure we do not overspend RCs than to allow us to properly replenish, again a system everyone is trying to properly grasp.

The AFIT token rewards will remain as usual per current system, until our new reward and rank system is out, projected next week.

To Post or Not to Post

Many Actifitters have had troubles posting their reports yesterday, most are able to do that today and others are still reporting issues.
Those troubles as most of you are already aware, are due to the Steem BC and particularly to HF20 move.
As mentioned above, we aim to ensure every post gets rewarded, so yes please keep submitting your Actifit reports. And most importantly, keep moving, active and fit!

AFIT tokens balances

During all the troubles we went through, AFIT tokens and relevant transactions/balances are always accessible and visible to our token holders, via either checking their balance on actifit.io, or via the Actifit app. Those are not affected by any Steem BC outages.

Plank Competition Winners!!

So over a week ago, we launched our first official Actifit competition, and the theme was "Plank and Win"!
We received some amazing and remarkable submissions, our #competition-chat on discord was striving with enthusiastic and competitive chats, everyone was quite excited!

We had originally planned on announcing and rewarding the contributors earlier, and being able to upvote winning posts to provide the Steem reward, but due to all the current issues with RC as mentioned above, we will provide an alternative rewarding mechanism for winners, for Steem rewards that is. More details on this below. AFIT tokens will be sent out seamlessly either way as they dont have a post age restriction.

So on to the winners. Overall, we received 14 contributions, and we would really have loved to reward everyone, actually can we do that? well we can ! :) We do have our top winners according to the original contest conditions, and participants will also get a reward, as follows:
1- @franciferrer: Top winner, with 10 min of non-stop Plank. @franciferrer will receive 10,000 AFIT tokens, and a 100% upvote from Actifit account.
2- @sumit71428: with 5:14 timing, he got the second place in the Plank challenge. 3,000 AFIT tokens will be rewarded to him, as well as 30% upvote.
3- @moderndayhippie: with 4:22 timing, @moderndayhippie got to the third position, and will receive 2,000 AFIT tokens and 20% upvote.
We also got the below amazing entries, each will receive 1,000 AFIT tokens and a 10% upvote as a sign of the amazing effort involved and for participating in Actifit Plank challenge:

• @wil.metcalfe: with 4:05 timing
• @joalvarez: with 4:05 timing
• @doomsdaychassis: with 3:43 timing
• @arisinho: with 3:08 timing
• @ticket4fun: with 3:08 timing
• @shazza: with 2:48 timing
• @mariannewest: with 2:42 timing
• @ecoinstant: with 2:25 timing
• @davidke20: with 2:11 timing
• @vidafitnessfeliz: with 1:56 timing
• @phoenixwren: with 0:53 timing

Well done everyone!
AFIT tokens will be sent out by tomorrow. For the Steem upvotes, we will be able to reward those once our RCs are back to normal, and since many posts might have reached payout by then, we ask our winners to write a comment onto this post, which will get upvoted in the coming few days!

Upcoming Contest with Fundition.io

We are working on launching a new contest in the coming few days, and are already in chat with @Fundition's team, who are happy to support such a contest, particularly under the theme of "Heart day" - a yearly event on September 29th, as a reminder and celebration of healthy heart and healthy living. Stay tuned for more details on this in the coming few days!
