    Thanks @melinda010100 :) We had to come up with a new contest structure that didn't rely on SteemSQL to pull data on comment history (SteemSQL subscription cost went up to 20 SBD monthly, which is a huge chunk compared to the total contest budget). We hope the new contest structure will still encourage people to comment on the posts that c-squared upvotes, while also leading to more commenting on the contest post itself. So far nobody has laid claim on any of the 5 Steem bounty on this post, so maybe you can be the first :) All you have to do is comment here with the URL of a post recently upvoted by c-squared that you really enjoyed, and say in the comment why you liked it. (and you would also have to have left a comment on the post you are linking, although I know in your case of course you would have left a comment because you are awesome like that :)

      The first time I read the directions I thought it was so complicated that I couldn't be bothered with it. Is only the next day after looking at it again I thought wait, this isn't so much. I can do this. My suggestion is to make the instructions as brief as possible and start the post by telling people that it is easy!

        Yeah I have a tendency to write things that seem complicated at first blush :) Beside the 5 Steem bounty on the weekly contest post (with rules being just to comment with link to a post you like that was recently curated through c-squared, and why you like it) - we are also putting a 1 Steem bounty on each of the daily Exponential! featured posts on the @c-cubed blog as well. Similar rules for those bounties, just paste URL of your favorite post from the daily features and state why you like it in a comment.

        It is actually much easier for someone to compete for prizes now, instead of having to leave dozens of comments you can leave as few as two (one on the post you like, one explaining why you like it on one of the @c-cubed posts with a bounty on it). I am sure it will catch on eventually, and I will probably make some follow up announcements about it in the discord as well. Cheers
