Issuing ENGAGE Tokens + Comment Curators Wanted!
Five weeks of engagement as scored by the Engagement League to catch up on, and I need a couple of you guys to help distribute ENGAGE far and wide.

Further to the following posts:
I created a token on steem-engine.com!
I'd like some feedback and ideas on how to distribute my token, ENGAGE.
Today I have sent some ENGAGE tokens to the accounts listed below. These accounts have appeared in the top 10 of the Engagement League at some point (and in many cases, repeatedly) over the past 5 weeks.
I decided on the following rather simple criteria to give me a number of tokens to issue:
1st - 3rd = 150 ENGAGE
4th - 7th = 100 ENGAGE
8th - 10th = 50 ENGAGE
And so the sends are as follows:
Account | Tokens |
---|---|
@tattoodjay | 600 |
@veryspider | 600 |
@brittandjosie | 500 |
@melinda010100 | 450 |
@janton | 450 |
@newageinv | 350 |
@dswigle | 350 |
@paulag | 300 |
@delishtreats | 250 |
@chireerocks | 200 |
@akomoajong | 200 |
@steemflow | 150 |
@bengy | 150 |
@erikah | 150 |
@glenalbrethsen | 150 |
@cicisaja | 100 |
@gniksivart | 50 |
Well done all!
Big fish supporters (that have basically funded my Steem existence thus far and allow me to do shit like this) have also received some tokens: @abigail-dantes, @acidyo, @anomadsoul, @flipstar, @fulltimegeek, @imacryptorick, @kevinwong, @krnel, @meesterboom, @smasssh, @tarazkp, @v4vapid, and @yabapmatt.
Whilst I think that the Engagement League is a fair way to issue ENGAGE, there are also some drawbacks with only using this approach:
I estimate that using only this method to distribute tokens, with the numbers used above, that it will take approximately 18.2 years to issue the lot
In 5 weeks, 'only' 17 people (out of a possible 50) have earned tokens
Repeating myself here - I'm under no illusion that ENGAGE will be worth more at any point than a pat on the back, but to give them a fighting chance I think they need to be distributed more widely.
I need some distributors
If you are present, powering-up, like to curate (which for today means reading posts AND comments), maybe you can help?
In order for me to track and issue the tokens (which I hope can be automated in the future), I will need something like the below adding to a comment you leave under a reply to a comment on a post.
I don't believe a post itself to be the engagement, but spark the engagement, and so majority of the tokens should go to the commentator.
100 tokens issued per curation with something like a 50% Commentator / 30% Post author / 20% Curator split.
Feedback on this, please?
If you are still here and understand the above, some more questions for you:
Would you be happy adding this comment and image at the bottom of a comment?
If not, what would you prefer to add as a footnote that can be tracked in order to issue the tokens?
Congratulations! You have just earned some ENGAGE Tokens.
Find them at https://steem-engine.com ![](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/50x50/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdHfkhCPGYcfUqZqT4Br3nsmCpeVPj1BcLoepVX2PYeAE/engagetoken.png)
(Dear scammers: Only registered curators will show up on a tracking sheet!)
I want the process to be fun and not feel like a job, for me or for the accounts issuing the tokens.
The tokens should hopefully go to people who give interesting, funny, intelligent replies to content. Ideally, the comment has sparked a thread of replies, but depending on the Post authors 'popularity', this may not always be the case - It will be up to the curators to decide.
I have a few names in mind for the initial 'team', and presence in the EL will likely be used as a background check.
Anyone can apply though, or (and maybe this would hold more weight) put a name forward for the role.
Sound like a plan?

Thank you so much for the ENGAGE Tokens!
I think it would be awesome to do a little bit of Engage Curating! I think it may be just the incentive that some need. I like the banner that is to be added, but, I do you think an invite or link should be added?
Woo-hoo! Thanks again for the Tokens!
My pleasure, all will be revealed soon! :D
I'll be patient if you promise it's going to be really good! But then again everything has been really good so I have faith.
Thanks so much for the ENGAGE Tokens! I bought some this week just to figure out how to do it. I think it would be fun to do some ENGAGE curating! I like the banner you designed, but think it should include an invitation to come join the EL?
My pleasure :) I have been a little confused by the market also, but think I've got to grips with it now.
The image was a quick job, I hope it's not too offensive :)
A link to the EL might work, but i would need to change it each week or else I'd start missing people who were commenting on an old post. But maybe I should link to a 'what is ENGAGE' post at least...
Thanks!
For My 500 E its highly appreciated
Im very sporadically active on the platform. As long as you dont mind that I wouldnt mind helping to spread some engage.
I have definitely seen some great comments the past few accounts and would work on trying not to repeat send engage to further help distribute.
Let me know if you need me to help.

Sporadic is OK, I wouldn't expect the curator to be here every day.
Noted, cheers :)
@gniksivart sounds like a sure bet - I see him all over the place!

I run a Battle-Steem game that can get 300 + comments in it. Its basically a clone of battle-ship with each ship being a steem related prize for the person that finds it. Would putting some ENGAGE tokens in the grid interest you as a way to spread some around ?
If so let me know as I plan on making a new Battle-Steem game sometime this week.
Could probably hold some aside for people like yourself to issue. It would be the Post stirring the engagement in that case I guess. 'Drop bomb on F5' not so much? :D
F 5 -- Hit
Congrats you found 25 ENGAGE Tokens is usually how I give away prizes in the game. Just figured I toss it out there since you were looking for some suggestions on how to spread the coin/token.
If you want me to hand some out to owners of random comments on my blog and other blogs that I read or come across then I would be willing to do that to help you spread the word.
Where can I find your game?
I have two versions a mini version with lesser prizes but are easier to find and the full version. Below is an example of the mini version that had some TROLL Coins /SBI Shars / 15 post resteem subscriptions hidden in the grid. I don't have an active one up yet but there will be a Battle-Steem game running by the end of the week.

Thanks! I'm following you now so I'll jump in when you start it up again.
Excellent !
I might have to check that out - fond memories of playing that as a kid on early games texh!

Excellent, I look forward to dodging your shots :)
If you're still interested I put a game up.

Is there a quota, so to speak, you would expect the curators to find per week? Or just an occasional, "oh that's a really good comment, let's reward that" type thing?
Not sure yet :)
I wouldn't expect the curators to meet a quota, and maybe it would be more like a limit they could issue in total, or to the same person.
I'd rather have more curators if they were going 'slow' but doing a good job.
Thanks for the feedback :)
No quota - count me in.
Now send Engage.

Thanks buddy! I am still catching up on important posts that I have missed like this one so sorry for the delay! I would love to help with this! Let me know how I can help! I hope to be back to normal in a couple of days (after the horror of getting back to the office on Monday) so I will be looking for the next steps.

No worries, I'm still pondering but will be grateful for help. Enjoy the rest of your holiday :)
So someone comments on a post, someone replies to that comment and thats the kind of one you would reward kind of thing?
Any comment, which the curator feels is a 'good' reply to a post, and/or encourages more engagement.
Could probably word it a bit better eh?
Lol, nah, you are wording it fine. I am gubbed after a long day and was seeing double :O/
So a rip-roaringly good comment, which is liable or has the potential to encourage more engagement!
I got ya
Double Katsu? Calorific!
Something like that yes, I guess it will be down to the curators opinion, ideally they won't be scammers and have a sense of humor. Easy!?
Aye, that sounds easy. I would half volunteer if that was the case. Like keep an eye out and try to remember to put your link in! I am a half hearted bassa at times.
And ya bazza, you wouldn't even need to log in to steem-engine to distribute! :P
Lol, that's what appealed ;0)
What if you become an Engage-whale but can't work out how to claim your riches? :O
I already read, curate and power up. If I can be helpful, let me know how. I think engagement is a huge need in the community!
Thanks :)
I would like to have curators who run in different circles, this is a good thing for distribution. Noted!
And yes, encouragement to engage, even with tokens worth very little is worth a shot :)
Thank you very much but at this time I must decline your offer to distribute ENGAGE tokens due to health issues. I do not feel that I could give the effort my full support that it deserves.
Thank you
Thanks for the comment @wolfhart, I read that you are a 1%'er - awesome!
I am still working that one out in my head. We have come such a long way. Tears of joy are at the wolfhart household’
I am glad you are moving forward with ENGAGE. I will always do what I can. It is hard not being able to be relied on, humbling experance.
I had to leave some kind of comment. Hahaha
