Week 12's Pay It Foward Curation Contest Winners!
Judges Choice Winners
This week the judges said that the entry quality keeps improving and their jobs are getting harder and harder! Keep it up and continue to make their choices hard. Love that the quality of those featured and of the writing/formatting skills of the entries keeps improving.
Here are the winners of 1 SBI share each sponsored by the Judges. These winners will also receive a Starter Package of @dustsweeper worth 0.25 SBD thanks to @lynncoyle1. This sponsorship will give 0.50 worth of upvotes to help save dust votes from being rounded down to zero. Once you start using this service you won't go back.
Featured Bloggers of Judges Choice SBI Winners
This is now the 3rd week that we have been able to give SBI shares to the required featured bloggers of all 4 Judges Choice Winners. Very proud that we are able to achieve this and love that 8 more bloggers will have a lifetime income due to being featured!

Week 12 Sponsors
For Pay It Forward Week 12's Contest we have the following sponsors in place. Please make sure to show them some appreciation. There is no reason that someone who has entered this contest and enjoys the rewards of the #steem-bounty or #steembasicincome shouldn't take the time to visit the sponsors and give them an upvote and comment on their posts.
@dynamicgreentk, @thehoneys, @bengy, @andrewharland, @el-nailul, & @kaliju
Now besides the above sponsors please keep in mind that the Judges not only curate the entries and all of the featured bloggers, but they also each donate 1 SBI Share each week. Please also visit the judges and show them some appreciation for all they do. Honestly they should be on your autovote list with Steem Dunk or other autovote service. The more earnings the judges have the stronger their votes will be on your entries.
Steem-Bounty
All steem-bounty payouts should have happened by now. @steem-bounty is run by @knircky and I'd like to ask that you set steem-bounty as a witness. In order to do so you can go to: https://steemit.com/~witnesses and enter the "steem-bounty" account into the text field and click vote.|
@andrewharland
Yup a header for a single person. While I list the sponsors above and ask that you visit them I wanted to take a minute to personally thank @andrewharland. This week besides the 4 shares for the Featured Bloggers he also pitched in and purchased 4 #steembasicincome shares for the judges (1 each) and I believe 7 SBI shares for @pifc. This level of support is amazing! Thank you very much!
@pifc Recent Account Builder Posts
By now most of you know that @pifc is the future home of this contest and more which will be started once the account has enough voting power to be self sufficient. If you haven't voted for the account builder posts please visit @pifc and upvote all posts that haven't paid out yet.
@pifc will post every other day so if you use an autovote service please consider adding @pifc.
Congratulations to the winners and all of the participants who entered last week! Also a very special thanks to @andrewharland :) The support is much appreciated!
I've sent 0.25 in the names of @pifc, @trincowski, @rlt47 and @@@permieemmy to @dustsweeper and of course @bjgeese's SBI to @pifc :)
Thank you for your commitment to helping with this contest!
I'm thinking we should have some sort of contest for dust sweeper rewards. Even 0.25 which gives a 0.50 account balance. Once PIFC maybe something like a upvote this post and comment as the only requirement. Then give out the entire SBD balance as rewards to as many random winners as possible. Maybe Dust Sweeper would help sponsor that with a base amount of rewards like 2.0 sbd value and then the post builds up from there. Simple and random.
Sounds like a win-win to me :)
Thanks @lynncoyle1 - much appreciated!
@andrewharland deserves support and our thanks as with @dynamicgreentk, @thehoneys, @bengy, @andrewharland, @el-nailul, & @kaliju Pay it forward could not support as many as it does without them
@knircky a witness that deserves support for the work on this platform he does
The Team who spend an enormous time and coordination in the contest @lynncoyle1, @wolfhart, @EnergyAddict, @tryskele, @thedarkhorse
to @permieemmy for my judges pick. I hope to see more from you thank you
I love that @andrewharland is giving a share to the judges for week 12 and confirmed to do the same for week 13. These shares will help allow you to power up even more and in turn increase your vote values.

Please let me know who I must support @thedarkhorse, is that @rlt47 or @liverussian, because I will be away from the net until June 30. thank you very much for your hard work, Bravo Pay It Forward Curation !!
Thanks for the SBI share bro, I'll be joining in on the fun again this week!
Thank you for joining the contest. Hope you stick around for a while.
Great week again, and a big congratulations to all the winners and participants!
I'm over the moon right now! This is so unexpected having just started with the contest.
My heart felt thanks to the judges and sponsors alike and of course, @thedarkhorse for putting it all together!
I'd like to single out @lynncoyle1 and @tryskele - being the sponsors for my prizes.
@el-nailul and @dynamicgreentk, for sponsoring my selections.
@pifc and the "Pay It Foward Curation Contest" - YOU ROCK!!
Thank you for joining in the contest you had some great featured bloggers! It's always fun for us when someone wins and is so excited about it!
Thank-you. I you have no idea how much this has meant to me, it was truly stunning.
I've hit a snag this week but i will rectify and come back with more excellent candidates.
You're very welcome :) You deserve it.
Thank-you once again, I really do appreciated it!
@rlt47 You're very welcome. One of my favorite reason for staying with this initiative, isn't just because I am passionate about it. It's mainly about the people I get to meet and interact with.
I do think the bug has bitten me as well, @tryskele.. :)
That is great to hear. This is a great group of people and love it when we can add more and inspire more.
Your most welcome! Let's Steem on and do this thing...
Congratulations to all of the winners. You all are doing an awesome job of finding good people with good material. Keep up all the work that you do :) Also thank you @andrewharland for all of your support!! It is truly appreciated.
Congrats to all winners. You doing very nice work. As some of the begginers are also getting help from you. God bless you.
@thedarkhorse
This is such a great program. Thanks for all that you guys do.
Congratulation for the winners and I am sure they are the best bet for this week. I am happy to be part of this and I am still wondering I completed four weeks successfully...
All the best for coming episodes and @pifc
Let there be more awesome curation showcasing the incredible diversity and talent of the steem family!
I just checked out your blog and read your most recent post Why I'm not a bandaid Mom. It was great! Not sure that Yunnan Paiyao is something I can find here, but might have to look into it. We have a fairly large Asian population in the area so some pretty good options to check out.
Thank you for stopping by and reading. I'm still finding my steem-legs and appreciate the comment and encouragement. :) Drop by for coffee next time you are in Northern Thailand. :) :)
It would be a trip I'd like to take one day. Think my Girls would love it too. Trying to make some adjustments to my business so that I can relocate to a much less expensive state (US) for housing and taxes. If this happens then taking some trips is something that I will start focusing on. Kind of a 2 year plan right now.
