The Daily Sneak 30 December 2017 - with guest curator @djlethalskillz
Welcome to The Daily Sneak!!!
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. Please always check the most recent edition, as sometimes submission requirements and rewards may change.
Today's guest curation is provided by @djlethalskillz. He provided a great introduction and curation! Let's give him the mic!
Peace Steemians!
I go by the name of DJ Lethal Skillz. I come from a mixture of computer engineering and later the music industry background.
I am a DJ as the name, a Turntablist (Vinyl Manipulation) and a Music Producer. My journey on the blockchain has been quite new - 3 months to be exact since i joined Steemit. Since then I have learned a lot and been blessed to be involved in lots of music related community initiatives. You can find more on my profile if you are interested to know more.
I picked various topics. Some are from people I normally follow cause I'm interested in their work or the topics they cover, and others I found in the community while searching and browsing looking for interesting stuff to support and engage with. Hope you like my selection! Kudos
@nadhiramusic is a new Steemian and a great artist friend of mine. We knew each other since I moved to Malaysia 6 years back or so. She's a great artist and talented woman. Nadhira just joined Steemit 2 days ago and she's sharing with us some of her amazing work and a little scoop into her personal life.
Great read and beautiful music.
From Malaysia With Love @nadhiramusic

Steemit Music League Challenge Week #10 Update
Steemit Music League, led by @chiefmappster, is a great initiative for musicians and producers in the community; to meet like minded artists, network, create and compete and get rewarded. I personally take part in these battles #smlchallenge and #beatbattle and I have met amazing people personally and made lots of rewards :) I highly recommend it for any producer in our community who wants to meet and network, or compete and earn.

Conclusion
I love these submissions from @djlethalskillz; sharing posts that tie together the different Steemian communities! For these great selections and commentary, @djlethalskillz earns 6 SBD today.
We have had a lot of great selections this week! We will continue to pay 2 SBD per selection through tomorrow, but then we are forced to lower the rewards again. Starting 1 January, the reward will decrease to 1 SBD per selection (up to 5 SBD per edition if all 5 choices are published). That will improve the sustainability and make it possible for us to continue rewarding even more guest curators!
We have had so many great submissions lately, that there has sometimes been more delay before a submission can be selected and published. To improve your chances of publication, make sure you are submitting the best posts and commentary! Choosing more recent articles can also improve your chances, so that articles are still in their reward period by the time we can publish your selections.
Each of these highlighted articles receives full upvotes and resteems from @sneakyninja. As an added bonus, @sneakyninja sponsors featured writers for Steem Basic Income!
Submission Requirements
- You can choose from 2 to 5 articles for your entry. Submissions with only one selected article will be ignored.
- 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.
- You cannot submit your own post for curation. Selections from nsfw will also not be accepted.
- 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. Similarly, if you include two articles from the same author in one submission, we will typically highlight only one of the two.
- 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.
- Please use this web form to submit your entry. https://goo.gl/forms/VH2MGIMEgqZmd9ef1
- Including image links to the source article is not required (and we prefer to leave some mystery if photography is highlighted and the article has only one photo.) However, we like to include images in The Daily Sneak, and not including any image links may decrease the likelihood of your submissions being published.
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 for several different reasons. If you are unsure why an article was cut, please review the submission guidelines again. If you are still unsure, feel free to ask politely why it was cut.
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! (To be cut to 1 per article, up to 5 SBD per published submission, effective 1 January 2018)
Right now @sneakyninja's upvote is not worth as much as we are paying for guest curation. 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 really regret that we have had to cut curation rewards again. We are trying to return to sustainability, to reward more curators and authors!

So good to see so many people joining @sneakyninja and curating good stuff.
Yes, we love seeing so much great content highlighted!
We noticed in your last couple of submissions that you are making good choices and writing great commentary, but not including any pictures. We like to include an image with each selection (unless you are highlighting photographer posts with only one picture).
Including an image link for each selection will improve your chance of having your submission published. In most browsers you can right-click and select 'Copy Image Link' and then include that link in your submissions.
@sneakyninja Peace guys, thank u so much for selecting my recommended posts and supporting the authors with all that love and including me :) Thanks a lot for all the support guys will definetily be sumbitting another soon!
Wishing u and all the team a Happy New Year full of more growth and success!
P.S: I noticed at the end of the post in the conclusion section possibly might have a mistypo in the name
Thanks for the contributions! I tried to update the conclusion a little bit so you would understand why a couple of your choices we dropped. We've had so many good submissions that when we got to yours some were past their reward period already.
Sorry about the 'typo'. We copy the Conclusion from day to day and then update some parts to make it unique for each curator. Looks like we missed a pretty key piece that should have been updated! That's edited now, let us know if you see any other problems.
yo no worries at all, thank u guys for all ur doing for the community. I so enjoyed sharing some of my favorites posts i will def get at it again and next time ill make sure no posts are close tp past their reward period. Thansk again for supporting all the mentioned authors and for the reward you sent me wishing u all a happy new year full of more growth and success! Kudos @sneakyninja
