From babies to daughters, passing through birthdays and goodbyes, this contest allows everyone who browses the tag #my2018 can learn a bit more about us, our experiences, our achievements, our setbacks, our happy moments, those not so happy and especially, learn how is a normal year for some Steemians around the world.

So far I´ve been able to vote on every entry - RIP voting power - and that is only thanks to the delegation I have from @blocktrades. Don´t forget to vote for them as witness here to show them your support!

The judging team

Some of the entries to the contest come from people I know and am friends with so, in order to avoid favoritism or a biased vote, I won´t be the one deciding which posts should be rewarded as follows:

• 1st place: 30 Steem
• 2nd place: 20 Steem
• 3rd place: 10 Steem
  .

That task will be up to three of the most dedicated curators I know from the Steemhood. You probably have heard of them because they are quite known around the platform, not because of the several projects they are involved in but also because they are highly involved in a curation project.

In case you don´t know they are, here is a small introduction:

@alcibiades	@travelgirl	@llfarms
Manager of the curation guild @curie, one of the first curation teams - if not the first - on the Steem blockchain... Alcibiades was there when it all started, rewarding low reputation minnows for their hard work. One of the OG curators, photographer by heart.	Chinese and English curator for @ocd, one of the top curation projects out there. Travelgirl is what you could call a 2nd gen Curator and she has been finding amazing underrated content from minnows for over a year. As you can infere, a traveler by heart	Founder of one of the freshest curation project on the block, @c-squared and a very community oriented Steemian. She at Steem Fest 3 about, you guessed correctly, Curation. A third gen curator, something that the Steem blockchain needs nowadays, curators by heart.

.
These are the Curators who will decide the top 3 posts that deserve to win the contest and the precious Steem, they will also pick 3 posts who deserve an honorable mention. For everyone participating, don´t forget to follow these fine judges!

One more thing, do not even think about trying to bribe the judges, they are hard as a wall and will never crave to your bribery, unless you have fresh cheesecake... Just kidding, but seriously, go follow them!

Remember that you have until next thursday (Dec, 13th) at 23:59 PST to submit your entry.

Remember this is a @blocktrades sponsored contest, if you like what they are doing, vote for them as Witness here
