Hi! A great day to all members of the MemeHive tribe! Today is the announcement of winners for the MemeHive Theme Curation Contest Week 2.
Judging & Curation Criteria
| Account | Entry | Creativity & Humor (40%) | Engagement (20%) | Relevance to Theme (20%) | Presentation (20%) | Final Score (100%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| @mintymile | Tariff Tantrums & Tech Exceptions: Trump’s Trade Season Hits Peak Chaos | 40 | 19 | 20 | 20 | 99 |
| @pepetoken | From Milly-aire to Zero-aire | 38 | 20 | 20 | 18 | 96 |
| @ieronimus | Freedom in the Currency | 37 | 17 | 20 | 17 | 91 |
| @babygirl888 | Once beaten, twice shy. Thrice what? Stupid or | 39 | 18.5 | 20 | 19 | 96.5 |
Judging Outcome and Rewards
When it comes to humor, all the entries appear serious to me. @pepetoken's entry has 102 upvotes, 22 comments, and 1 reblog, and that's the reason his post received 20 points in engagement. @mintymile won the presentation criterion due to the time and effort in creating images and producing 883 words.
Based on the above criteria, it seems obvious that @ieronimus lags behind. Nevertheless, if subjectivity will be the basis for the judging process, I will pick his article as the winner, for I love the lyrics and tune of his music. Check and try listening to the video he uploaded and see if it will suit your taste. For me, I consider it gold. Moreover, that's the good thing about having clear criteria because objectivity can still be maintained.
Lastly, as mentioned during the last week's winner announcement, subjective intervention will only play a part once two entries receive similar scores. Both @pepetoken and @babygirl888 receive 96 points, and so to break the tie, I increased the latter's engagement by 0.5 to receive 18.5.
Given all the foregoing considerations and based on the above criteria, the winners for last week's curation contest are
1st Place: @mintymile with a 99% final score and will receive 4,000 MEME.
2nd place goes to @babygirl888 with a 96.5% final score and will receive 2,000 MEME.
3rd place goes to @pepetoken with a 96% final score and will receive 1,000 MEME.
And since we only have four entries for this week, only @ieronimus will receive the 500 MEME consolation prize. The remaining 500 MEME in the prize pool will be reserved for next week's contest.
It was good that @greywarden100 already sent the 8,000 MEME to my Hive Engine wallet two days ago, and so I can send the prizes to the winners immediately.
Here are the four chain transactions for the prizes:
