RE: Upvote Shares Giveaway !

in #steemit6 years ago

I nominate @thedarkhorse.
I really admire the support for the community he shows by organizing his weekly 'Pay It Forward'-curation contest.

Sort:  

Thank you for thinking of me! Always nice to see appreciation for the efforts being made.

You are welcome :0)

I second this nomination!

I have a couple Upvote Shares on the side to giveaway in you Engagement League Asher which is always an excellent way to find quality accounts on Steemit. I'll contact you about it on Discord later this week.

@costanza if you have a few that I can purchase let me know. Not exactly sure how this all works with your program...need to look into it further for sure. But I'd like to purchase a share for a few of the judges if possible. 1 currently isn't posting, but logging in just to judge the contest so that wouldn't be worth it. But the other 3 deserve a share and I'd like to sponsor them.

Feel free to message me on Discord if that is easier. thedarkhorse #6765

Great @thedarkhorse, it can be a bit complicated at first but it all makes quite a lot of sense once you get a hang of the basic concept. It should be no problem to sponsor others. I will make a general terms and agreements post tomorrow (the aim is to make it all extremely transparent) and I'll message you on Discord. ( @costanza#2335 )

Sounds good. I know SBI's program very well and have well over 100 shares for that so if it's anything like that it's something I will be interested in for sure. Look forward to hearing from you.

That sounds great, thank you!

Can we first have this announced?
That gives me the possibility to come up with some kind of cheat to win Ashers league. Cause playing with the rules makes it impossible to win 😩😥

No doubt about that. My only hope is to win with the random draw these days. Doesn't help that I am commenting from 2 account as I'm trying to grow @pifc right now.

Your last remark made me curious. Why would you try to build up two accounts instead of one? I would guess you better put all your energy in one account.

I also wonder why you didn't power up everything you have?

I hope you don't mind me asking these questions?
Anyway feel free to choose of you answer them or not.

2 accounts is because the Pay It Forward Movement that we are promoting is bigger then just me and I want it to grow far beyond what I could do on my own. This means allowing others to have the posting key so they can leave comments and post contests or other posts. In the end I would like to have @pifc to be a mini curie on the Curation side with a different twist/focus and also a one stop shop for people who enjoy using contests to grow their accounts. Now those that want all of this very likely don't care about my babbling about my dog getting sprayed by a skunk or me selling items on Steem Flea Market. So those posts target a different audience.

As for the SBD and Steem in my account, I purchased a bunch of SBD from a couple members here who needed cash fast. At the time it was a good move as I had extra money in my Paypal account and wanted more SP. But then life kicked me in the balls and my boiler blew up. Now I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to cover a $14k bill to replace the boiler, some electrical that needs to be brought up to code, and some of the pipes for the heating system. If I power up it's 13 weeks to take it back out, but as it sits if needed I can just pull it and pay part of the bill. My goal is to make enough money outside of here to pay for the repairs, but need to figure it out before locking that money in for 13 weeks.

Aha that both makes sense.

That's really a lot of money for a boiler!
I really don't know how expensive one would be in Holland. But I would say am ordinary house boiler should be much cheaper. As most people just use central heating to heat the water. And the central heating costs $3-4k to buy a new one.

The actual boiler itself if around $5k, then there is install costs which adds a bit. But the issue is I'm in a 1920's house with a lot of old electric and once the inspector sees the electric that ran to the old boiler he will make me replace it and once you touch electric in my town you have to bring all electric up to code that runs on that circuit panel. There are some exclusions which I hope we qualify for, if not this actually could become more expensive which is my holding the SBD and Steem as a backup plan. Like I said I'm really hoping not to touch it and earn enough to cover everything. Oh and there are pipes that need to be replaces as they are from the 1940's and showing age. It's just one of those projects that is a can of worms. Once you start on 1 thing it leads to another.

Your nomination of @thedarkhorse has been noted and you will get your Share of the SBD from this post once it is paid out!

Solid nomination @simplymike !
I have him in my follow list knowing he's doing good things for the community but never really took a closer look (Steemit taking up so much time, it never ends)

I'd also like to second this nomination of @thedarkhorse. I've been a judge in his contest and have seen first hand his pay it forward attitude. Great idea @simplymike :)

Thank you @costanza for recognizing and supporting quality steemians!

I know, lol. If only there would be 72 hours in a day, we might be able to follow up on all that we wanted to :0)

I agree with this vote.

I also support this amazing contest which I'm proud to have been a part of since the very beginning! My entry post is one of the highlights of my Steemit week!

Not such a good nomination as it so far received more upvotes than you have yourself.

I knew this would happen, lol.
IMO, he's doing more for the community than I am at the moment, so I think he deserves it more :0)

Oops! Wrong account, lol

So many people having two or more accounts. We can probably half the number of unique active users 😩🤔

True. But every single community account is run by one or more people that also have a personal account. IMO it would not really make sense to only run a community account...
