Hi everyone.

Welcome to the results post for my #stsl - Share The Steem Love Competition No 12!!

#stsl - Share The Steem Love Competition No 12 has now come to an end. We had 5 really good nominations, and the race to find a winner was so close that we had 2 nominations on 6 votes each, and I have had to go to Rule No 8 to find the winner.

The Winners

Our winning nomination, coming in with 6 votes, and the nominee with the lowest Reputation score to break the tie is:

@ninahaskin and @deerjay

The Prize:

This week's competition post received a SBD reward payout of 0.828 SBD, which goes towards my 2 prizewinners (0.414 SBD each), along with upvotes on their posts for 60 days.

The Transfers have been made, and my new prizewinners have been added to my voting list.

BONUS PRIZE

My runner up, also with 6 votes, but with the nominee having a higher Reputation score than our winner's is:

@trulafountaine and @dswigle

As we are in the season of giving, and because the competition was so close, I have decided to award a bonus prize of 60 days of upvotes to my runners up,

@trulafountaine and @dswigle.

This is a once off special bonus, but may happen again sometime in the future, you never know....

As we are heading into the Christmas holidays, I may be able to squeeze one more competition in, but may have to wait until the new year if I get too busy having fun with my master's family. To all my friends, supporters and followers, have a very merry Christmas, and a safe and happy New Year.

Until next time...
