Edition 2 of Paying it Forward #PIF has come to a close and the results are in!
This month we had 18 newcomers to the Hive who submitted a valid entry comment to the contest. Yay! This is amazing and a huge increase over last month.
Of course, this left me with quite a lot of vetting and validating to do before I could announce the winners and send them their prizes, so my apologies for this but you all made this more popular ;-) and that is great news!!!
I was so encouraged by the feedback comments in the entry posts. If you haven't read them all yet, you can find them here and here.
After vetting/validating:
1st prize:
@tdctunes wins 25 POB, a follow, and a reblog
2nd prize:
@amcrypto wins 15 POB, a follow, and a reblog
Here is the screenshot from random.org:
3rd prize (Engagement):
@mmykel wins 10 POB, already followed, and a reblog

Discretionary awards:
This was so very hard. In fact, there were so many great comments and I just could not split out a favourite! So, I decided to award 5 POBs to 6 different people who made entry posts. Originally, this discretionary award was up to 15 POB to be split between a maximum of 3 people. I have chosen to increase this to 30 POBs between 6, because you guys are all fantastic! I wish I could have given each and every entrant some POB, but in the end, I had to make a decision and these are the lucky winners of 5 POB for their entry posts.

Thank you everyone for entering and I wish you all the very best on your Hive journeys.
