Welcome to The Daily Sneak!!!

With SBD running hot again, need to adjust the payment to guest curators a little bit. Now you can earn up to 10 SBD per accepted submission for guest curating The Daily Sneak. Submission requirements are published at the bottom of each edition of The Daily Sneak.

Today's guest curation is provided by @ecoinstant again! @ecoinstant is a man of all trades, diligently dedicated to healing and improvement through all of the tools at his disposal. Sustainable development is the end goal - let's all reach for it, building a better world forged with peace and harmony!

Now, on to today's great selections...

Safety First

Living and making a living abroad can be exciting and full of adventures. With @buttcoins, a fellow Latin American-living expatriate, we get the full story of the ins and outs, the ups and downs of living and doing business in Latin America. Sometimes the roads close, but that just makes for good boating ;p

[Roleplaying Games] GM-less Play RPGs, A Treatise in One Part

Playing games is such a part of being human, and many of us hardly think twice about game design. We just just enjoy ourselves when the opportunity presents itself with friends or family. Here, @lextenebris treats us to a treatise on gaming game-theory, with this long, well researched, and incredibly underpaid article on GM-less games.

THE RICKETY GATE ... LANSDOWNE, INDIA - A Quaint Town in Himalayan Foothills Where Time Stands Still...

Where art meets life, these are the points in space-time that make us love Steemit. @nehab is a brilliant artist who shares her works on Steemit. She has written for us a wonderfully in-depth look at the inspirations, life experiences, and history behind the painting that she has made. Life demands art, art reflects life, and this article rolls it all into one lovely package!

Sisters bonding with Nature at Hoyo Land Resort Philippines!

It's getting close to Christmas, and sometimes I just want to stand up from my desk, tell the boss I quit, and run away from it all! Then I see an article like this one, and it satiates my hunger for travel again. Two sisters travel to the tropical Phillipines resort of Hoyo Land, and take brilliant pictures to share with us. Enjoy a piece of a tropical vacation without paying any more than an upvote!

Spiritual Resistance

This is a shorter article, but such an incredibly important topic that it's worth having a look. Indigenous groups around the world are facing struggles; struggles that we occasionally hear about on the news but then quickly fade from memory. @likedeeler came across a very interesting resource and wanted to share with us. Let us not allow ourselves to forget so easily this time.

Conclusion

I hope you enjoyed these great selections from @ecoinstant. I love how bringing in guest curators creates a broader range of content. I'm sure I would never have seen any of them if not for @ecoinstant submitting them! For submitting these five great selections, @ecoinstant earns 15 SBD today. In addition, each of these choices receive full upvotes and resteems from @sneakyninja!

Submission Requirements

1. You can choose from 2 to 5 articles for your entry. Submissions with only one selected article will be ignored.
2. All articles chosen for curation need to have been published within the last 5 days before your entry. It may take time for me to publish your curation, and curated articles need to be within the reward window when your submission is published.
3. You cannot submit your own post for curation. Selections from nsfw will also not be accepted.
4. Selected posts should have less than $50 in total rewards and have not previously been curated by The Daily Sneak. We try to spread the love around, so while selections from authors that have been highlighted before are welcome, they might not be included if the author's last inclusion was recent.
5. Be sure to include your personal bio for me to introduce you to readers, and make sure that each selection has commentary. This can be just a few sentences about why you think the selection is worth our attention, or what is great about it - something that will make people want to click through the headline and check out the actual article. English is preferred, but other languages will be considered as long as English translation is included.
6. Please use this web form to submit your entry. https://goo.gl/forms/VH2MGIMEgqZmd9ef1

If you include more than 2 articles in your submission and not all are approved for publication, your submission may still be published into an edition of The Daily Sneak, as long as at least 2 articles are approved. This could happen if you choose an author that was recently highlighted in The Daily Sneak, if another submission curates your same choices and is published before yours, or if the editors do not accept the quality of your submissions.

Submission Reward

A brief biography of each guest curator will be included in the edition that uses their submission. In addition, each guest curator will receive 2 SBD for each article from their submission that is highlighted in The Daily Sneak. That's up to 10 SBD for each accepted submission!

Right now @sneakyninja's upvote is not worth as much as we are paying for guest curation, even with today's change to the reward. Why do we pay so much for guest curation? We believe that quality curation is very important to Steem. Paying our curators well encourages them to spend more time reviewing content and picking out the best pieces. We hope that they will spend some of the SBD earnings to power up- but it's their choice.
