Ok, contest number 2, better late than never.

in #steemspirit6 years ago

Well hello all!


I know I promised another contest for back in February, and I am months late on posting one. I am sorry for that. I have had a lot going on and I am a bit of a procrastinator, and that makes for a very unreliable content creator!

My last contest went well but there was a few things that did not go exactly as I had planned, so I am going to make the rules a little clearer and open the contest up a bit more.

So, the new contest! With summer coming and Steem starting to inch its way back up, it is starting to look like good things are coming our way. Because of that, I am thinking we need to share our enthusiasm and passion for Steem with the world! With that in mind I am calling this new contest...

"Smells like Steem Spirit!"!!

The goal of this contest is for you to show your Steem spirit! I would like users to share how they have helped share Steem with friends, their community, or even how they have just represented Steem by wearing Steem swag and gear!

Now I understand there are Steemians that are already very active in the community by holding Steemit meetups and gatherings. So I am trying to find a nice balance between supporting the people who are trying super hard to get Steem noticed, and those who may not have all the contacts or ability to organize a big Steemit gathering. With that in mind, the contest is once again going to have a limit on your reputation.

The contest is pretty simple. Create a post showing your Steem Spirit!! I will give the top 3 entries a follow for a week to help them get their content seen and get their names noticed! The contest will run from today April 18th to April 22nd. I will then spend the next few days reviewing the entries and select the winners, and post them by the weekend of April 28th.

Rules:

  1. Your entry must be a new post on your blog.
  2. To submit an article for submission, please use the tag #steemspirit
  3. Do not post your entry in the comments section of this post.
  4. Do not message me your contest entry on another service.
  5. All text must be your own. If you choose to source an image you must credit it with the source, but preference will be given to 100% original text and photos.
  6. One entry per person.
  7. Your reputation must be between 25-65

Sort:  

I am a graphic designer and 3D artist, I have made some great art for various steemians here like @surfyogi @soundlegion @lordoftruth and many more. Is this also an eligible entry for this concept?

I am over the rep limit, but I have been on Steemit since the first week it launched, and I have brought a lot of people to Steemit including @winstonwolfe, @bladefighter324 and a handful of others..

I have done nothing but talk about Steemit since the day I joined.. From everyone from the grocery store to the doctor's office!

If you go through my comment history on Youtube you will see I have told so many big influences including @dollarvigilante before he joined (you can see this on his first post).

So I am happy with what I've got now, and like @lukestokes talks about how Steemit is not about the upvotes.. It's about the connections and relationships!

I have brought a lot of people to Steemit including @winstonwolfe...

Not a lie.

What am I missing? Is the prize for this that this guy will follow you for a week???? This contest brings out the lol's for me.

ah HA! So it's YOUR fault @winstonwolfe is here. hmph.

;)

My dear @kpine ,

You just made my day with this second contest. I am so glad that you came back with such a great idea. As my reputation is 63 for your contest and I am so happy about that because lately I have tried so hard to promote my steemit spirit all over the world through my sport. I think all our friends of steemit we'll do our best on this contest once again. Thank you very much for your support and God bless you. Much love from @annadeda.

Thanks so much for giving this great opportunity and care for the minnows. Not everyone do. I believe it will really go in a long way in helping people promoting the platform and those that has take there time In creating quality content.

I work as a promoter here on Steemit but people don't really care in effort being put in promoting the platform. All they do is (whale go for whale) and many minnows has being discourage which has lead to many inactive account.

I spent 4 hours everyday to guide the minnows over 1k in a group chat I created for newbies.
I introduce them to the platform and encouraging them mostly when they quit blogging because of low reward payout ($0.00)so I have to bid in minnowbooster to support some there post, it's just to show appreciation that we love what they are doing, because they have spent quality time In creating those contents.

Why I bid for minnows

Steemit is a social media that pays users for creating quality content, as we all know, and this is what we promoters have been using to bring them in, to me it's a shame when a friend of my called me and tell me he spent 7 hours creating contents everyday but It end up in $0.00 pay out.
To me I can't close my eyes and ears to that, because this is quality time that has been spent, and can be use for something else, so I have to support by bidding for them.

I love Steemit, I believe on the minnows because to me, they are the future of the Steem blockchain tomorrow.
Thanks so much @kpine, for give giving this great opportunity for the minnow, I'll make my entry soon

I'd definitely enter this, but everyone I've tried talking into joining Steemit has acted like I was insane, lol. Anytime I bring up crypto in general to people they either think I'm talking about some kind of scam or just don't wanna hear about it. Ohhh, well. Sucks for them I guess :) Good luck to everyone who enters!

Great to see ya again! Great contest for the peeps on STEEMIT!

Guys, let’s all get involved! Resteemed to my 10k followers! 💪🏼🙌🏼💯

This is awesome! I am personally looking forward to seeing the creativity that comes out with this contest. I have a feeling people are gonna bring the best! Great stuff Sensei Master Jedi @kpine

Best contest name ever.

I loved it too, lol. I've always liked the variations of Nirvana's title song.

Well hello there @kpine

Aaaaah! This is a noice contest. At least everyone can participate, as long as they aren't hermits who don't talk to anybody. I think you're going to get many more entries on this one than on the last one.

You going in?

Lol, thanks for the vote ❤️ And maybe, I'm also a procrastinator, so I might not get the chance to finish writing a nice entry for the 22nd. I'd love to, though.

Haha same here
