Ride or Die with STEEM - SPUD2 Prizes Update - June 1, 2019 [Power Up] [Prizes]
It's About the Steem Journey and Not the Crypto-Destination
The road is never smooth in the real world and so to in the crypto-world; bumps, bruises and bugs is part of the experience. The question then becomes do you keeping riding or do you pull over and get off? Or do you trade in your ride for a newer more modern machine?
SPUD is my response to those questions.
Just like today, many riders of Harley Davidson Motorcycles have many choices when choosing a ride with today's modern technical amenities and improvements, but yet many don't jump ship and remain riding HD's with older motorcycle technology. Many of them are die hard Harley Davidson Motorcycle riders and don't ever even consider changing to any other brand of motorcycle.
Call me old school or a maximalist (for Bitcoin and Steem), but I am Here until the Steem Road crumbles and I fall of the crypto-highway or it lets me Ride off into the Sunset with you all.
STEEM is my Gas, STEEM POWER is my Ride and SPUD is the ROAD.
SPUD2 PRIZE UPDATES
Prizes:
1st Place - 100 Steem Prize, (to do as the winner pleases)
+ 250 Steem Power Delegation (4 weeks sponsored by @taliakerch)
+ 150 Steem Power Delegation (4 weeks sponsored by @sultan-aceh)2nd Place - 500 Steem Power Delegation (4 weeks sponsored by @xpilar),
3rd Place - 250 Steem Power Delegation (4 weeks sponsored by @flipstar)
The rules are as follows:
Rules to win for SPUD2 :
MUST have a reputation score BELOW 69.00 ( so 68.99 is good & Can participate.) AND more than 75 STEEM POWER (prior to SPUD2) BUT LESS than 5000 Steem Power.
MUST have a reputation score ABOVE 46 (so rank of 45.99 will Not Win)
MUST have at least 1 Steem Post in their blog about SPUD2
MUST Power Up Steem on June 1st, 2019
On June 1st, you MUST make a post about your POWER UP. It can be as simple as "I powered up X amount of Steem" to a simple picture/screenshot of your Power Up and posted to your blog, or it could be a super long dissertation on Steem Power. Please tag me in it so I can be sure to see it.
The winner must meet all 5 requirements, and will be the one with the Biggest Steem Power Up PERCENTAGE, not the biggest Power Up. This means that it will be based on the ratio between your current amount of Steem Power and the amount you power up on June 1st.
For Example:
if you have 1000 Steem Power already powered up prior to June 1, and on June 1 you complete steps 1-5 with a 100 Steem Power Up,
and
another Steemian has 100 Steem Powered up prior to June 1, and on June 1st Powers Up 20 Steem, then this 2nd user would be winning with a 20% power up versus the first example with a bigger power up but smaller percentage of only 10% based on their account.
This prize is meant to incentivize the smaller Steemians, the planktons, minnows and barracudas out in the Steem Ocean to participate in powering up on SPUD, and hopefully create more understanding as to why Steem Power is what backs the Steem Economy. The winners will be announced via a Steem Post a few days later, and if no one challenges it or lets me know I missed them after 2 days from Winner Announcement, I will then payout the 100 Steem Prize to the Winner and let @xpilar , @flipstar , @taliakerch and @sultan-aceh know to consider making their pledge for 1st Place Grand winner as well as the 2nd and 3rd place runners up!!
And I believe there are others looking to sponsor more Prizes, Stay Tuned for More Info, and in the mean time let all your Steemian friends, followers and family know that on June 1, 2019 SPUD2 is taking place, and this time with some prizes!!
Also, please give our SPUD2 sponsors a follow and up vote them and all SPUD content in order to help spread the word. We need a SPUD2 article to get on the trending page like @khaleelkazi 's post did for SPUD1.
Thank you all who are supporting this initiative in anyway, and a BIG THANK YOU to our SPUD2 Prize Sponsors.

#spud2
More convinced of this #spud2. Support will continue to flow, if previously @xpilar and @flipstart, now the delegation came from @sultan-aceh and @taliakerch.so teh winner will get theit delegation of steem.
The rules are also made clearer to make the participants more selective. but beyond that there must be an explanation that #spud has good intentions to support and support steem as one of the leading cryptocurencies in the future.
I will resteem to spread this news.

Amigo que ocurrente la papa,se ve jocosa en su moto,espero pase una feliz noche aqui son las 9pm,saludos y estoy pendiente cuando abran la cuenta y le aviso,aqui hay muchos problemas con el internet amigo,no se puede comprar ,los puntos de tarjetas no funcionan y para colmo ni gas domestico,jaja a veces es mejor reir aunque por dentro este llorando,esto un desastre amigo de verdad
Lo entiendo Petra, espero que mejoren las cosas pronto para uds.
Y la cuenta de Davidjose ya esta.... la clave para entrar esta en su cartera(wallet) de steemit.. donde ve su cantida de Steem... ahi esta... nadie mas que ud. y yo pueden verlo.
Es confuso peron cuando queria entrer lo va a directar a el sitio donde administra todas las llaves de steemit. ahi tiene que copiar la llave de POST o de Active PARA DESPUES usar esa llave para entrar a Steemit...la que yo le di es la llave principal que domina todo la cuenta y no se debe de usar para cosas simple en Steemit.
preguntas or problemas, dejeme saber.
I'll be powering up something on spud2
Thanks for the support @cflclosers
I'm sure no one would bother cheating, but just in case: I'm sure powering down recently and then just powering up on that day would be disqualifying. Presumably you reserve the right to make the choice yourself if you think someone is abusing a loophole.

@improv Thanks for the concern. It's only 100 Steem with some Steem Power delegation so it wouldn't be a large heist if someone is trying to game this contest.
In the end it is about powering up but I will keep it mind for the next #spud event, especially if the prizes get bigger.
Thanks for bringing this up and supporting #spud2
Ah, but because of this contest and the attention it brings to the chain, steem will surpass btc, and that 100 steem prize will become the heist of the century!

Few people's are happy with the old things while you can changr it easily, steem will be all time hits.

Maybe @nathanmars and @theycallmedan would want to get on SPUD2 with prizes and/or promotion since they are big STEEM boosters with big bucks and large followings :)
like the prizes aren't enough :P :)
But then again, you can't have enough prizes :)
