[WHALES ONLY CONTEST] Calling all charitable whales. Let's see who's got the biggest <3 this holiday season?
Hey There Whales,
Thanks for stopping by.
Yeah, I'm talking to you big guys.
It's me, SirCork, the pipsqueak whose voice is only just barely starting to be near a dolphin's pitch, but even still, isn't quite there yet.
If you are a minnow or dolphin, well, this isn't gonna be your game, but if you are a whale, this is your chance to shine!
My project is @YouAreHOPE. In a nutshell, since I know your time is valuable, its a steem block chain based, transparent, community driven worldwide humanitarian aid foundation, and did I mention its run 100% on steem?
I'm a top 100 witness. You should vote for me if you are truly a charitable whale. Now, with that bit of street cred and direct business out of the way, let's get back to the matter at hand.
I am not asking you to rape a reward pool, or do anything nasty or untoward, but I would like to ask you for a delegation to @YouAreHOPE for the month of December.
We are running a fundraising and awareness campaign and contest that will generate a lot of posts. We'd like to upvote those posts from a well funded account for the month the campaign is running. Nothing more, nothing less. Nothing evil, nothing sinister. The post rewards from these upvotes will go to the post authors to use as they see fit.
You can read about the contest, the rules, and specifically about how all the finances for it work to be transparent and as pure as the block chain allows without any reward pool rape rewards in it, as far as we can tell. Do poke holes in it. We need to be doing this right, not wrong. Looking forward to your feedback, on this, our first attempts at such a thing.
So why did I call you whales here with my title?
To see who can provide the biggest delegation for the month!
On December 26th, whomever has delegated the most for the longest, as of that date, will become an Official Sponsor of YouAreHOPE and be promoted for all of 2018 for your project or initiative or witness or blog, with some rights reserved to be avoid conflicts of interest or associations directly in conflict with YouAreHOPE global value sets.
Subjective, yes, it has to be. We're sure as successful business whales, you can understand our position. Mostly though, just about anything goes. We aren't uptight, just a little nervous, maybe. ;)
So, fame for fortune. Do we have a deal?
It's like follow for follow without the shame, and all the game!
Whales, start your wallets.
Let's see who has the biggest... <3 heart.
Yours in service,
@SirCork
Founder: @YouAreHOPE Foundation
Top 100 Steem Witness
Lol.. it's not only Redfish or Minnows who begs for votes.. even Dolphins also begs sometimes.
Part of the job. The part I like the least, but if no one knows you exist, you can't get anything done.
Whales do their own forms of it too, and the whole classification system imho is stupid, I'm a magical mermaid that shoots out laser beams......there is power and strength in collaboration on all "levels". Some who may seem more dolphin are actually whale like in power or in being able to get things done, some minnows may become whales in a month cause they can...some whales can be harpooned so whatever, I'll enjoy being an angler fish
oh I see I see... begging itself is an art.. while minnows will beg directly oh please vote me I will lick your whatever blah blah blah.. on the other hand big fish will come up with all sorts of plan to get the vote..
I see I see.. while in developing nations beggars will just beg every single person but in developed nation they would go and take unemployment benefit and will live the same lifestyle of a wealthy person from underdeveloped nation..
I see I see.. while minnows will get flagged and all.. big fishes would still continue begging in artistic fashion
Bigger fishies create communities, applications, software, tools, run the block chain, and manage social and technical issues all day every day here. Many sleep only a few hours at a time to stay here and keep this place running. We add value to your experience, so you can even have an experience here.
It's not begging, friend. That's not it at all. And your poor understanding of the mechanics of the system here, are forgiven anyway.
oh you mean they are all shut-ins otaku? with no job or friends?
This is a job, and requires work and more than an attitude like yours will ever get you here. Refine your social graces. You are in a social network. Or you will find it rough going here.
don't feed that troll, disgusting person who shits on all those doing good works, am not in the mood for this, <3
.
Take it easy Killer. Save it for when I need you for something that matters! :D
Minnow. We are grateful he is here.
Just sayin' c'mon big guys...
Sorry I'm not a whale. But I will pledge my A Dollar A Day donations to You Are Hope everyday during December.
Hope that helps a little.
I am with @pennsif. Glad to give a little every day to help move this along. Thank you @sircork! 🐓🐓
Hi @mother2chicks, that's great. Are you going for A Dollar A Day to YouAreHope?
Wow, really? Thanks!
You are amazing, and i see those dollars coming in. Not a whale, but doing more than they are. Go figure.
Thank you. Maybe a few others will pick up on the A Dollar A Day idea. It is an easy way to give.
Particularly for people in the US, Canada, Australia, w Europe they probably won't miss a dollar a day. And it can do a heck of a lot of good in places like Venezuela and Nigeria as @Malos10 and the other YAH agents on the ground have shown.
This is so true. I smell the next fund raising campaign growing from the idea already!
The maths can make exciting reading.
One hundred people giving one dollar a day...
That could make one heck of a lot of arepas or buy a hefty pile of books and pens.
Oh man, you had to go and bring Maths into this. I was having fun until the maths part crept in on us.
There would be no blockchain without maths.
There would be no steemit without the blockchain.
There would be no YouAreHope without stemmit.
Ipso facto, there would be no hope without maths.
Ipso facto, I am doomed.
LOVE the picture of the whales and their sizes, I never knew the Unicorn of the Sea was THAT large....wow, it looks like it is aimed to stab other whales, I didn't think they were so "battle" like.....lol, anyhow
@sircork should be way higher on the witness list, this man has done more good for the platform and for communities and people around the world then most are aware of. Hats Off to you Sir
Garsh, aw shucks! Thank you @battleaxe! Very kind of you to say so! And to take notice!
I wish for @sircork 's initiative to flourish in the finest ways.
God bless you all.
Thank you so much @cryptopie! We won't let you down! God bless you too!
Let's call some sweet whales.
