Minnow Steem Power Delegation Contest 003!
After hanging around the @minnowsupport project's help channel in the P.A.L. Discord group, as well as the #help channel in steemit.chat, it is clear that many new minnows are unable to transact on the steem blockchain. This is due to a lack of bandwidth caused by heavy use on the Steem network.
I want to help as much as I can, so, instead of telling every new user to "be patient," I've decided to run a contest for all of you who are currently unable to transact due to their low bandwidth.
The goal of the contest will be to select a few new users who I will delegate Steem Power. This set amount of Steem Power will be enough bandwidth to interact on Steem. I would love to delegate to all new users, but I, unfortunately, do not have that kind of Steem Power.
What is up with the bandwidth?
To learn more about the issue, new users are experiencing please read the first round of this contest.
The Contest
So I want to help three new Steemians by delegating enough Steem Power to them for a weeks time. This delegation will allow them to build up their own Steem Power so they will no longer need my assistance. I will run this contest every so often to give new users the chance to use the Steem platform on their time.
It is a bit of a shame that I need to run this as a contest, but I am not a whale with a crazy amount of Steem Power so I can only do so much. Hopefully, the users I delegate to will be able to earn enough Steem Power in a week or two to where I can run this delegation as close to twice a month as possible.
Winners Receive:
- 50-100 SP Delegation
- 100% Upvoted from me on their posts
- Blog Coaching
The Rules:
- If you are able, please comment below that you would like to enter. If you are not able to comment (because of bandwidth), please send a private message to
jrswab#3134on Discord. - After forty-eight hours, I will look over the candidates who entered and determine who to delegate Steem Power to.
-- I will be choosing users who create good content. It is my goal to improve the overall quality of the Steem network as much as possible, so I will not delegate to accounts that show little or no effort to create the best work they can. (Yes, this is subjective.) - If selected, the user must agree to my coaching aimed to help them move their blog to the "next level." Not everyone may need this, so if I want to help you improve, I will let you know.
- The selected users must use the 50/50 payout option to exchange the earned SBD the following week into STEEM.
- The chosen users have to show a willingness to improve both their content and the Steem ecosystem as a whole.
I wish I could help every new user out, but I am only so "powerful" (that sounds weird). I plan to run this twice a month as long as bandwidth for new users is still an issue, and this round of users earn enough Steem Power can support them! This contest is an experiment for both me and the new minnows/redfish so we should expect the rules and time frames to change next round.

Nice post;
Hi @jrswab. Thank you for this good idea. İ accept your rules and coaching (nice to hear that) 😊
Thanks again.
Hello @jrswab, and thank you for helping minnows. I would really love to join in the contest this time, because bandwidth has really been a great problem for me. I have been creating original content since I joined steemit in December last year. I also run the quite unrecognized DSM Series which stands for Daily Steemit Motivation Series which you can find on my blog. The SP delegation will really help me a log but most importantly the mentorship and recognition I will get when selected. I hope my writing will be able to get to a larger audience and motivate them.
Thank you for this opportunity @jrswab. Also tried entering last week but couldn't. It would be a great privilege to get selected by you not only for the steempower delegation but mainly for the mentorship. I've tried my best to create original content here but a still need a lot of tutoring.
I would like the chance to enter. I currently have 150~ SP as of right now. I make a couple photography posts a day. They usually have 30-50 words to go with the picture.
This is really nice of you and I hope the winners appreciate what you are doing.
Thanks @jrswab for this great gesture of yours ,the steemit blockchain would have been a better place if we have more people like you.I would love be selected to receive steempower to help me become more active on steemit and in the long run earn.Last week alone i won 2 contests on steemit,the first one was a steemit t-shirt from @marpemusic and the second one was 2sbd from @tojukaka 's selfie contest(am yet to receive that). I believe by participating in more contests i would get to understand the steemit environment more and get to make more friends around here(at least steemit is supposed to be a crypto social media platform).
Thanks again @jrswab ,looking forward to being selected.....lol.
Last week I couldn't enter because of bandwidth issue, I do hope I get considered this week
I'm open for any coaching as far as it's for the growth and success of the steemit community and me too
So I'm interested in the delegation @jrswab
I tried my level best for more than a month here and experimented in almost everything that I was told would increase my SP..But still it is 15SP and I don't have much SBDs to lease or buy enough! Many a times I confronted this issue right after drafting a complete post taking two or more hours..And also my vote value is a big ZERO that keeps many co-steemians away from my posts..It would be so much helpful if I get it delegated only for a week or two..I will never forget it forever!
Consider me as a candidate @jrswab
Hello @jrswab i'm glad you decided to continue this contest this week. I entered last week. I will be more than happy to receive this delegation because i believe so much in the steem blockchain. You can glance through my posts and would definitely love the idea of your coaching. Thanks and God bless. Resteedmed and upvoted.
Hello @jrswab. A very great initiative here. Is there any requirements to apply? Though I never had the bandwidth problem I would really like someone to hel p my blogs reach the 'next level' and more sp is always appreciated. I do gaming reviews and photography
and I don't think my blogs get that attention they should.
Thank you for your time.
