Another SBI contest? Sweet. CURATE!!!!!!!!! And some tips for the noobs.

in #contest6 years ago (edited)

Are you really, really, really new to Steemit? Posted a few times and realized you don't make anything?

Well, you can either be a dumbass like me and throw money into a bonfire by buying upvotes, or you can be intelligent and try to create content within the guidelines of groups like @artzone (artists), @comedyopenmic (lolmakers), @curie (writers), @dlive (streaming), @dtube (video), @fundition (larger-scale projects), @ocd (writers), @openmic (self-explanatory), @sndbox (hosts competitions), @steemhunt (product and service recommendations), @steemstem (nerd writers), @utopian-io (nerds, though it's not all coders).

Feel free to make your own recommendations for other groups people can join and opportunities for creators I failed to list!

I hope to see more content, more curation, and more earnest commenting in the future so that we can really start to feel like a flourishing blockchain and community.

"Nah I'm good, where's the contest?" Okay, fine.

Rules

  1. You post original content and your posts average under 1 STU ($1 displayed payouts).

  2. Find someone else who posts awesome original content whose posts average less than 1 STU.

  3. Link their @ username and drop a link to their content here. You should upvote their post.

  4. Please don't link your alt account/smurf lol.

Prizes

  1. @steembasicincome shares for you and the person you curate!!! (Within reason, if a million people enter obviously I can't afford that)

  2. Depending on how this goes I may also be giving out @dustsweeper funds to participants.

Sort:  

Fuck me, spoiler alerts lol I'm actually going through skyrim right now myself. I played a few seconds of one of the lego star wars games but the ass backwards controls put me off. I'll grab both of you shares, thanks for dropping by!

Okay, you qualify. I'm not sure if all of pharmk's photos are his own... his latest post has a url to a photo that seems like it was taken from an old review of a toyota. But other pictures do seem like he could have taken them, so I'll probably get him a share since he seems nice enough in the comments. I am only mentioning this because I do not want people's post rewards removed for plagiarism.

You might want to check out @steemstem for future posts of yours. You qualify, but the person you linked has only posted once recently and seems to be very inactive. Have any other recommendations?

The content would, but does that person ever communicate with anyone on steemit itself? It looks like they have 0 comments.

Here is my tutorial on how to make an origami gift bag designed and folded by myself

The person I am supporting is @ivan-g who also posts origami tutorials including this lovely one for folding a tulip

Origami? Nice! Both of your accounts meet the criteria, thank you for entering!

Very nice, you both qualify! You have such thorough write-ups it would be a shame if they were not rewarded more.

HI there, will we still get some STEEM because we were qualified? It's been 7 days already, I just wanted a follow up on this great opportunity. Thanks in advance

I edited the post a few times as I purchased the SBI shares, you should be enrolled soon if you are not already, as I have already gotten shares for both of you.

Thank you for your response!

You qualify, but the person you linked has not really been posting enough recently, do you mind linking anyone else?

Is @autemox you? Because they haven't posted a single comment and you replied to the question on their thread... even if it is, I will still consider you as qualified because your posts are well-written and there needs to be more diversity of general investor knowledge shared here. If it isn't then both qualify and I apologize for asking, if it is then it would be cool if you could recommend someone else. Thank you!

No, it's not me. I just came over his blog and thought it was good! Thanks to you as well. Writing my own posts take a lot of time, so there is no way I would have time for making another as well :D

I am unsure if your posts or theirs are original content... I want to help out, but if the plagiarism trackers detect plagiarism activity then the rewards will be removed. My apologies if I am incorrect.

I am really sorry about it I Just review his single post in which he is talking about to create telegram channel...but remaining other post is not his content..sorry for tagging him

I actually don't care that much, I'm just saying that I would like to help him on his start here, but if his posts actually get a payout and they get rewarded then the payouts might be negated by steemcleaners etc. If you're friends with him maybe you can communicate as much to him or something.
