I am happy to Announce that Yesterday's Favourite Article of the Day Contest launch went off with a bag, 3 participants took part and their was some great engagement and a nice diverse collection of Articles shared and curated apon.
Before I disclose Yesterday's Winners and move on to the next chapter in this initiative, I would first like to acknowledge the great articles which they chose.
@elricmoonslayer was our very first every #faotd comment entry and really kicked the contest off with a very thought provoking piece written by @active-truth who wrote about how words and their meaning have been changed over time and by who called Words and Their Meanings. Who has the power to change them and why? This was a very well written article that explored why words and their meanings have been changed and who benefited from those changes. A really good read and if you haven't already I would suggest stopping by to check it out.
@merit.ahama was our second comment entry who shared a great article written by @selfhelp4trolls about the health benefits of reducing your sugar intake called How Sugar May Have Destroyed My Life If you haven't had the sweet pleasure of reading this article I would suggest you drop by comment, engage and spread some not so sugary coatings.
Our third #faotd comment entry was from @samsmith1971 who shared a great article written by @tonytrillions who devled into the deeper meaning of meditation and how it can be it equates to many things we do in live, the benefits of using meditation and mindfulness and how yhey can both be used as a force for good in healing your body and soul called Can't Meditate? If you have every been on the wrong end of a stressful day, this is the kind of calming article you would like to read, be sure to give it a look up you might be pleasantly surprised.
Yesterday's Contest Launch was brought to you in collaboration with #DCooperation on behalf of @clixmoney and some #dcc coins where also up for grabs, it is hoped that @clixmoney may again sponsor further contests after the success of Yesterday's Launch.
I would like to take this opportunity to announce that we are open to sponsorships from any community, brand or individual willing to sponsor daily or weekly contest so that we can bring greater prizes to the #faotd and more awareness to the great content produced in the #pob community on a daily basis.
You can also delegate #pob to my account jaxsonmurph for curating rewards if you would like to support this initiative, it is worth noting that delegators would receive curation rewards daily from my curation on these posts.
In first place we had @samsmith1971
In second was @merit.ahama
Third place was @elricmoonslayer

Additionally @vempromundo.pob has greatfully offered to give each winner of Yesterday's contest a bonus upvote Thank you for the support at @vempromundo.pob it is most welcome.
I would also like to say a big thank you to everyone for their continued interest, support and engagement in bringing this initiative to the #pob community. Together we can move mountains. Lets bring it up a notch.
My Favourite Article of the day was written by @amr008 In the article he gives a complete breakdown and analysis of @leprechaun's votes over the course of the previous week, I have to confess I am a bit of a stickler for statisical posts and find them very interesting and often inspiring, you can check out his article at the following link called It's Saturday - vote analysis of @leprechaun
Because of the success of Yesterday's launch I have decided to slightly improve the POB Delegations and it is hoped that I may be able to continue improving them as the contest starts to take momentum .
Prizes may be subject to change each day and it is hoped that as engagement grows delegations of #pob will rise also. Additionally I am looking into how best to go about adding more value for winners and may soon start asking for your Bitcoin cash NFT wallet address.
First place will receive a 6.5 #pob delegation + 1 Upvote from me
Second place will receive 2.5 #pob delegation + 1 Upvote from me
Third Place will receive a 1.25 #pob delegation + 1 Upvote from me
NOTE: It is worth noting that although winners will receive additional upvotes aswell as prizes, the percentage weight of these upvotes cannot be guaranteed as nobody can guarantee a 100% upvote, this was brought to my attention by @scholaris.pob
I am also looking into giving the First place winner each day a Bitcoin Cash NFT, one of my many Prized Bitcoin cash NFTs that I currently hold in my https://www.juungle.net/ wallet. but at a later date once the contest starts to receive a valid amount of engagement.
