We Gowan Party Like it’s Yo Berfday - Payitforward 1 Year Anniversary
I just heard about the crew over at @pifc celebrating their 52nd week on the platform, it’s like a #steemit birthday only different—congratulations! All they wanted for their birthday was to switch things up a little bit this week and, rather than curating a #new author, they ask that we re-visit any of our previously featured authors and curate one of their current articles—deal! Buuuutt...
First things first!
Thanks for keeping a good thing going @pifc, @thedarkhorse, sorry if I’m leaving anyone out, this is a great #community initiative! Shout out to the judges @lynncoyle1 (cool1), @trincowski, @viking-ventures and @tryskele. Now, to the rest of you reading this, you really should get in on this—here’s what will happen when you curate two authors for this #payitforward challenge:
You’ll meet cool people from the authors you’re featuring to comments on your page, the creators of this project and the judges for this #contest.
An opportunity to call out your wife out like, “@puravidaville, I challenge you to come over here and show off your
cookingcurating skills.”Both you and your featured authors win #steembasicincome shares and a Steem bounty or some Steem bounty—I have no idea what Steem bounty is?! 🤔 But I know what @sbi shares are and they’re up for grabs for you and your features.
Scratch that last bullet! The prizes this week are... here, I’ll just show you what they said:
“As for the prizes, well this will be a EVERYONE WINS contest this week!”
You’ll get your name out too. Each judge and person following @pifc who visits your featured authors post will comment on their page and mention your name, explaining you led them there.
Lending your help to an undervalued post is good for the author and the community, why not pay them another visit? Look, a lot of cool things happen ok?! It’s a fun place to be, come on over and let me know what you think. At some point, though, you’ll have to stop running your thumbs about everything else and get to the features!
Feature #
@alexkopreiko. I last featured this artist 28 days ago and, since then, Alex hasn’t missed a beat! I was happy the first time I found this author because he’s putting out original content on a daily basis. I see he’s still producing at a high level—at least six articles per week. In the past 28 days he’s built his reputation from a 25 to a 50 and even caught the attention of a few whales—congratulations, Alex! Check out his latest drawing, complete with progress pictures and a description—show him some #love for his contributions to the blockchain:
Somewhere in the wood

@shemzee. Another opportunity for me to help shemzee get his name out—my pleasure! If you haven’t heard this guy yet, you’re missing out. He’s a Bulgarian musician and songwriter with a big, deep voice who’s been really fun to watch! He’s been on the platform for one month now and has caught a few big trails already and caught the attention of a couple of big wallets—congratulations, shemzee! He’s still releasing one song per day and he just accepted a song request by me yesterday. I can’t wait! Check out this original song he just released four days ago:
It`s been a long, long time. Original song.
Update:
The Request I mentioned—shemzee just released it yesterday.
“7 Years,” a Lukas Graham original.
Incredible rendition, @shemzee, thank you!
Did you click on the two articles I just featured, huh, did ya?? Go click on them, c’mon, back me up on this! Check out their blogs and let them know what you think—don’t forget to hit their Upvote button. You know how pay it forward works.
That's awesome! I didn't realize they had been going that long. Way to go @pifc! I'll definitely check out your picks and share a little veggie-love their way. ;)
They’ll appreciate that, tref, you’re the best!
Thanks for stopping by @plantstoplanks.
edit Had I gone to steemworld first I wouldn’t have to add this edit.. thank you for showing them love, you’re awesome! You know I got your back round’hur! I can’t enter my winking emoji now because this is an edit so imagine Ima have to give you the next best thing :wink:
Thank you for your interesting entry. I've supported both of your bloggers.
Thanks for backing me up! And thank you even more for continuing to judge this competition.
Thanks for stopping by @viking-ventures.
What a cheerful post you've made :) I supported both of them :)
You’re too kind, insight-out, thank you! I can’t guarantee it but I’m willing to bet a small amount that I’m equally as excited about you visiting their pages as they are.
Thanks for stopping by @insight-out—you’re awesome! Thanks for backing me up.
Did you see the song he covered for me? It was just released yesterday—he frikkin rocks!!
Yes, I did and left a comment the minute I saw it :) It is so kind of him to make a special cover for you :)
Enjoyed both artists that you have promoted. I like this idea, and your involvement is this initiative has once again displayed your sincere concern for others here on Steemit. Not too often do you find people that have such compassion for others and are looking for nothing in return.
This is exactly why you are so cool @dandays
You know how many times I’d like to Resteem your comments, @thebigsweed? I think the records skip-sk-sk-skipping—it’s nice to see you again!
I saw that you commented on both of the featured authors’ pages, thanks, Sweed! You’re the best.
I always look forward to what you have to say, you know how to make a dude think he’s doing something good. 👍🏿 I’m glad you think so! On that note, check this out, sir, since you’ve been gone.....
About three months back I was asked to join the #artzone curation crew, the option was given that I could promote writers to begin using the #artzone tag, too. Well, I thought about it for a several weeks and, one thing led to another, I’m proud to tell you I’m the newest member of #artzone. I’m five weeks in now, I’m running my features on Thursdays, called “Thursday Shift,” it’s a lot more fun than I anticipated, Rob, I’m not gonna lie. Hence the new interstest in this @pifc article. 😉
If you don’t mind, sir, next time you have a minute, stop by today’s edition of Thursday Shift and let me know what you think. I know I can count on you for an honest, valuable opinion—take your time!
Here, this is what I wrote the first couple of weeks, just to get you caught up right quick before you check out todays features.
Thanks for stopping by @thebigsweed, it’s nice to have you b-ba-b-b-b-back.
Well, with you as an #artzone curator I may have to tag some of my stick figure drawings with that tag. Enjoyed the first five posts you featured and even watched the video by #edouard, rather interesting . Will get back to the other featured posts latter today. Have collected another round of sap for making maple syrup and need to start the boil by 7oclock as it is suppose to be snowing and raining here by 1.
To be a curator for #artzone has to eat up some time and again says so much about your willingness to help others. I think it takes a person with a big heart to commit to such an undertaking. Time for me to get busy.
Talk later my friend.
Stay safe.
I’m so glad you’re back, Sweed. Check out what @shemzee just did for us, sir.

I’m literally holding up the truck, Sweed, en route to Panama, please excuse this short response. 👍🏿
Holding up the back of the truck, what the hell for? Depending on how long you are in this position, I hope @puravidaville gives you a break, that is unless she is busy changing the tire, now that's my kind of girl. Hopefully she is as fast at changing tires as the pit crews at the Daytona 500.
Thank you for entering our (PIFC’s) 🎂 one year anniversary 🎂 contest @dandays! While I don’t know if I will have time to comment on them, I did want you to know I supported your selections.
All the best to you and yours, for an even better tomorrow, as we head into our 2nd year! 👍
My pleasure! Thank you, roleerob, that’s what it’s all about! A comment is cool but it’s the upvote that incentivized the new guys the most—you’re the best! Thanks for the opportunity.
Thanks for stopping by @roleerob.
they might be happy with their birthday
Hey, how’s it going, ustazkarim? I saw you ask about Morse Code over on Ed’s page, Morse Code is a telecommunications thing. 👍🏿
Thanks for stopping by @ustazkarim.
o yes, I don't understand the code yet, it turns out you really understand the code, thank you for sharing your experience, don't forget to visit my page if you have time
Thank you for your entry. Both of your bloggers have been upvoted and your entry for Curation Contest:Week 52 is confirmed.
