Hi Everyone!! Welcome to the results post of my #stsl - Share The Steem Love Competition No 16

My competition's format ran similar to previous competitions, in that you needed to nominate someone who deserves some extra upvotes on their posts for 60 days, but the rules for how winners are chosen have changed, and are no longer solely based on the number of upvotes received. I really want to help those Steemians who are either new, or who post great content, and don't receive a great deal of rewards for their hard work. My calculations are therefore weighted in favor of low rep scores, and author reward earnings.

So let's get straight into it, shall we?

The Winners

Things I took into consideration this week were:

1. The reputation scores of both nominator and nominee,
2. The count of upvotes for the nomination, and
3. The author rewards received in the last 7 days by the nominees.

After feeding all these factors into my algorithm, I was able to find a winner this week.

The top 5 nominations by vote count, who went into this week's prize draw were:

Nominator	Nominee	Upvote Count
@cheche016	@valerie15	90
@ijele	@blinks	86
@juliusjamex	@destinysaid	31
@madefax007	@unicorn3221	13
@simplymike	@davemccoy	12

After feeding the relevant information into my prizewinner algorithm, the final scores are as follows:

Nominator	Nominee	Final Score
@cheche016	@valerie15	1.71
@ijele	@blinks	21.89
@juliusjamex	@destinysaid	0.03
@madefax007	@unicorn3221	2.51
@simplymike	@davemccoy	0.38

This means that the winner of #stsl Share The Steem Love Competition No 16, with 86 votes, and a final score of 21.89 is

@ijele and @blinks

Here is @ijele's nomination

@ijele's nomination was under the @euronation community banner, which is also part of the broader Nigerian community to which both @ijele and @blink belong, and so my next 4 competitions are open only to non-Nigerian communities, to help me Share The Steem Love wider to different communities.
