Congrats to the winners!
On or about October 22, 2018, Steemit, Inc. will select four winners at random and one wildcard winner who nominated a Steemit creator for the Prize.
The five winners will be chosen in a random drawing and will be notified by Steemit, Inc.
Weren't the winners supposed to be chosen at random? Why were the rules changed?
We just thought it would be more fair to allow Steemians to pick the winners democratically. Didn't realize anyone would take issue with deferring to the will of the community.
There are people that were already mentioned that I didn't bother to re-mention. Counting the number of nominations someone received when the number of nomination isn't supposed to count isn't the will of the community. It isn't good practice for a company to change their stance nelly willy as if what they say doesn't matter.
Way to avoid the issue.
Doesn't democracy include knowing that you're voting ?
