Hi Everyone!!
Share The Steem Love Competition No 17 is now open!! Enter here to win some SBD and upvotes from me on your posts for 60 days.
Last week's competition was probably the best one yet, with so many great entries, and such amazing engagement and community spirit. Let's see if e can keep that energy up this week!!
We're going to make a small change from last week, so ready the rules carefully to make sure your entry counts. Follow these instructions, and obey the rules, and you could win some SBD, and 60 Days of upvotes for you an your nominated Steemian. My upvote settings can be found on my latest status report.
The RULES!!
Last week our winners hailed form the fantastic community of @euronation, which is part of the greater Nigerian community, and therefore only non-Nigerian communities are eligible for this round of my competition. I want to Share The Steem Love all over the world, so a community (or country) can only win one of my competitions per month.
Entering my Share The Steem Love Competition is really easy. Just follow these rules, and you could be the next winner!
- Upvote this post and resteem it. This will boost the reward pool and exposure of the competition, and give you a chance at winning more SBD. The SP rewards go into my upvote value, so everyone I support wins!
- Find someone on Steemit who is posting great content and making a positive contribution to the Steemit community, and who you feel deserves to get a few extra upvotes as reward for their efforts. Write a post about your nominee with a link back to this competition post, and be sure to use #stsl as your first tag.
- In the comments section of this post, tell us who this person is, what community tag and country you are a member of and are entering under (teamaustralia, thealliance, steemsilvergold, Canada, Nigeria, Australia, South Africa etc...), why they should win 60 days of upvotes from me, and put a link your post about them in your comment.
- Get your friends to come and upvote this post and upvote your nomination. I will feed in some information about the top 5 nominations from different communities by vote count, including reputation scores, post frequency, post length, and average post payout value into my AI engine, and calculate a winner. My algorithm is Top Secret, and subject to many variables (possibly including the current moon phase, and price of chocolate at the corner store), and may carry a certain amount of subjectivity factored in.
- A community (as listed in your nomination under rule 3), including any sub-communities, cannot win my competition more than once a month. Anybody found trying to cheat the system with fake communities will result in the entire primary community you belong to being banned from my competitions indefinitely. More specifically, The country represented by the winners is deemed to be the "parent" community.
- Self- or Bot- upvotes will result in disqualification. Auto app upvotes (like eSteem App) will be deducted form your vote total. Only upvotes of more than 2.5% will be counted to eliminate the auto app and bot votes.
- DO NOT upvote your own comment.
- The winning nomination will also receive the SBD portion of the rewards for this post, split between you and your nominee.
- Read rules no 3, 6, and 10 carefully!!! I don't want anyone to be disqualified. Missing any information out in Rule 3 renders your nomination invalid.
- DO NOT upvote your own comment.
- If there are no nominations, the SBD prize pool from this post will be carried forward to the next competition, and my master, @bmj will choose an entry from one of my previous competitions to add to my prizewinners upvote list. @bmj's decision will be final, and not up for discussion.
- The decision on who the winners of my competitions are is final, and no protests will be entertained. This is about Sharing the Steem Love, and not who is "entitled" to claim a prize.
The Prize
The winners will also share the SBD portion of the reward for this competition post, so the higher the reward balance for this post, the bigger the prize will be...
