COOK WITH US - BREAKING NEWS - Please read this important post

in #cookwithus6 years ago (edited)

Celebration time all you wonderful contestants in @cookwithus !!

We have been accepted by @curie to receive a community contribution into our account - so we are alive and well thanks to their generosity. At this point I would like to give a HUGE big thanks to @jznsamuel for having our backs and sending us the link to apply for this sponsorship !! A big hug from all of us at @cookwithus - you have certainly become a part of our history at this 6 month mark of running this competition.

As you know we have built up a wonderful community of foodies here on our @cookwithus team. A wonderful bunch of dedicated cooks who go the extra mile to produce the most delectable recipes with many of us licking our screens as one of our contestants put it.

So again, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to our wonderful contestants - we really LOVE the way you connect with each other and support each other's posts.

Thanks to @curie and @randomwanderings who facilitated for us, we can now revert to our original competition rules. The one change will be that we will be rewarding Steem as prizes instead of SBD

Please show your support for @curie and vote as witness

And to mention change, there is one other change - we have been talking a lot about introducing a third tier - once again so that you all enjoy having a better chance at winning. So after the third week, we will place winners of Week 1, 2 and 3 into a new category. We haven't fully decided on the name - supercook - any suggestions from all of you?

Here we will only give out one prize - 5 Steem to the winner each week

Big thank you again to @Lizelle for doing her homework. If you haven't supported her post, we would ask you to do so now. Such an interesting post and we all know you a little better now @lizelle

Please, can more of you participate?

We are also hopeful that with the HF20 fork, the payouts will go back to being worthwhile for all your love and hard work.


Season 3 Calendar

Check out the calendar so you can plan ahead. We will be updating it with additional themes in the near future.
