Week 26: Pay It Forward Curation Contest...Take 2

in #payitforward6 years ago (edited)

Added a Guest Judge to make it 5 total judges for the week. @simplymike is one of those people who is always helping newbies and it's an honor @simplymike join us this week. This will add a 5th Judges Choice Prize and 2 more featured bloggers will earn SBI shares which will be purchased by @pifc.



Time to celebrate 6 months of curation! This week we are going to allow you the PIFC community to help us pick people for the @minnowbuilder program that will be supported with daily upvotes until they become a minnow.

So on top of the normal 2 featured bloggers (remember QUALITY CONTENT), we need you to pick one or two redfish that you feel are doing great things on steemit who deserve to become one of our Minnows In Training. We would like you to write a little bit about each nomination and why you feel they deserve the added support.

All nominations will be reviewed by the Judges and we will pick up to 10 redfish from your nominations.

I used the term "redfish" and it has caused some confusion. Sorry about this. For this round we are looking for 40-480sp steemians The reason for the 480sp cut off is there is far to great a chance that we would be setting someone up for the program and then they graduate out really quickly and we would be right back looking for someone to replace them. The 40sp minimum is so we get people who have proven their commitment to being on steemit and powering up. Later this number will be lower, but for this round this is the cut off.

Here are a list of steemians already getting support from the program so please don't nominate them as they won't be selected for a second group.

@tryskele, @headchange, @viking-ventures, @stever82, @buckaroo, @cicisaja, @el-nailul, & @celinavisaez

As always check back to this post often and scroll to the end to see a list of this week's curation entries!

What is the Pay It Forward Curation Contest?

👉👉Clarification for Quality Required for valid Entry👈👈
We are looking for Quality Original Content. We want to see no less then 200 words of original written content. So a single photo is fine as long as there is 200 words with it. 200 words is about 12 lines of content. Posts from Parley and dmania are not acceptable.
