The Meet the Steemians Contest (MSC) started yesterday (read the announcement here) at STeemFest in Bangkok and attendees started using Proof-of-Scan (POS) by doing intensive scan/talk/scan session.
In the announcement, we mentioned a "mysterious new rule" that will be added to this edition of the contest. This new rule has been revealed at the opening of SteemFest Conference Day 1.
Here it is:
Get a contest bonus with Proof-of-Hug (PoH)
SteemFest is an event where you can make real friendships. With PoH, you can spread the love and earn more contest points!
To get a Proof-of-Hug, after you have made a mutual scan with someone, ask a third Steemian that will act as a witness and will take a picture you hugging the person you just met.
Your hug witness will then create a new post:
- using the following title:
SteemFest Proof of Hug - with the picture she/he has just taken inserted in the post
- using the tag #proof-of-hug
The content of the post can be anything as long as you strictly follow the above rules. Be creative!
All 3 users involved in the process (2 hugging + 1 witness) will get an additional 5 MSC points!
Of course, the Proof-of-Hug is NOT mandatory. We respect each one's privacy and cultural habits. Feel free to politely refuse if you do not wish to be photographed.
