My Entry For Information Finding Championship - Season 1 : Round 9
Come join the fun with Information Finding Championship - Season 1 : Round 9
Hosted by @apolymask
My name is Mello from team BeeYOU.
When I saw this contest, I knew I had to enter. It seems like such a great idea to research, create, share, and learn from others. This round is about cryptocurrency.
I knew I did not have enough time to research, digest, and share in my own words, so I thought creating an art piece is the best way to go. There is a slight problem with this choice though; I cannot draw or paint. However, what I am pretty good at business intelligence and data visualization. I wish I had more time to polish this work, but I did the best that I could with 2 hours.
I hope my entry qualifies as art with some information about crypto coin market.

My Entry For Information Finding Championship - Season 1 : Round 9
Thanks for the entry! And.. That's a cool, interesting and informative graphic! I hope people benefit from your efforts and good luck in the contest! :)
Thanks @apolymask. I had fun making it. I don’t normally produce hard to read data visualizations, but I had give it an artsy twist. I also had to learn a new tool, Gimp, to help me me achieve my entry. I look forward to your next challenge. Take care.
Great post! goodluck in the contest :)
Thank you @misschipmunkdiva. I am really not happy with my work, but I had no time to produce a higher quality custom data visualization.
Cool to see the different volume in the coins and making it into a little space graph! Don’t worry about having zero art skills, I’m in the same boat and the contest isn’t solely judged on that! :)
I’m glad you like it. I hope the judges do to. It’s good to know that art skills are not necessary. I just have to do the best I can with the skills that I possess. Have you participate since round 1? How are you doing with this contest? I wish I found this sooner, but better late than never.
I got lucky and found out about it right before the first week! You can briefly look through some of my past rounds if you got a second! I've been doing my best and just helping to community grow! We all win and can all grow together that way! :)
Few tips
Thanks for the sound advice. I appreciate the part about being unique. I try to always take opportunities to be unique and not follow the status quo. I like the “road less travelled.” I will check out your entry to challenge #10.
If you like to help communities grow, have you heard of @newbieresteemday? We are a new initiative that helps newbies learn, grow, and succeed. We are an up and coming group with high participation, good content, great support, and good hearted bunch of red fishies.
Glad you made it. I know you will have fun with this.
Thanks. Squeezed in with 9 more hours to spare. I think you are right, I usually do have fun with creative contests. How many points behind am I to you and the leader board?
The point stuff is all about to change, so I don't know. Right now before the change both @kryptocek, and myself have 3 points each, so right now 3 points behind us. There have only been eight rounds scored, 9 and 10 have not been voted on.
That being said, there is maybe a few changes coming in for score keeping, a 2nd and 3rd place for each round, 2 and 1 point each, and 3 points for first.. So each round has a 6 point potential. So instead of 24 points that have been available through round eight that would jump up to 48 total points to distribute.
In that scoring scenario, both @kryptocek and myself would have 18 points each leaving 30 points to be distributed, two three point scores, and eight each 2 point and 1 point scores . Thats if he makes the change. So yes plenty of time to "catch up". Even if there would only be one round a week, no catch-up or sit out rounds, say only 10 more rounds to go, that would be another 60 points for a total of 120 votes if only 20 rounds, so 18 points behind is nothing.
Thanks for the detailed response. I love detail! The more the better. I look for word to the next challenge if I make it in. See you around.
