Great contest!

Congratulations to the winners. One of the most profound changes resulting from blockchain technology is decentralizing the internet. This contest continues to draw more professional and thoughtful responses. Blockchain needs to garner respect in the eyes of world and @OriginalWorks is making that more possible with each passing week.

Every one think he deserves the top 5 or 10. I have been writing on this contest for over a month now. The highest position i have attend was a 10th position. I do not complain about anything. I see each contest as a chance to improve in my writing skills. I appreciate @originalworks for having us contest here. 1.5 steem is really little for a contest you have to read the whole whitepaper, visit their websites and watch a lot of videos. Nevertheless, It alright. I hope to improve and get to the top on the next topic.

I haven't even gotten to that position before. Anyways, we can do better next time, that should be the reply of those confused souls

Congrats to the top winners. Hoping to do better next time.

MANY CONGRATULATIONS

to all this week's winners. unfortunately I couldn't find the time for an entry due to work and family commitments but am pleased to see some familiar faces in the winning pack !

Special Congrats to:

and great to see @smaeunabs, @ced000 @ecoininstant @dedicatedguy & @oivas in the winners line up

It was no doubt a challenge and a very technical subject ! I look forward to joining in this great contest thread soon. Big shout to the legendary @originalworks who if you like to get handy with Illustrator, Photoshop and the like also runs @mediaworks contests with graphic challenges for blockchain orgs !

Thank you so much @outerground! I was actually looking for your article as well and was quite surprised to know you weren't able to join. Still looking forward to reading your future entries. I am quite a silent reader hahahah

I don't even understand this result at all. Anyways it is well. Congratulations to all winners

Hahaha! I am confused too... But then guess that's how BandZ team wanted to look at it. Congrats to all winners!! Good job!

Yes every team with different tastes.

don't understand it too - But I love it😂😂
Lol

Christel
Sorry for my english :(

Lol....
No problem at all

keep going @ced000 keeping my seat warm :) ><

Nahh...This ain't your seat....
You seat in higher positions😏
Sir @Outerground ....The Man of Originalworks 🙌🙌

you can never predict what the judges are looking for. you just have to go with your own intuition of what the project means to you !

Exactly. We just have to keep bringing our best, week in, week out

Exactly. We just
Have to keep bringing our
Best, week in, week out

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

Wow what a contest. Tho the results are really confusing, how was the judging like? @originalworks I made two animations included in my post none picked.

Btw Congratulations to the winners, most names seem new rise on guys!!

Corrected.

Please give chance to others. You have won atleast 100 Steem so please stop with the nonsense. You have won twice in a row with your boilerplate gif bombarded post. This is the most unbiased result so far. This is how a writing contest should be judged. Bombard your entry with images and people will just win week after week. No way. This week's result should serve as a lesson to those who think that they have figured out a way to win a writing contest just by kissing the unmentionables of the sponsor.

Hey did you even read this comment well?? I only asked how they were judged and you are here telling me stories? Please read the comment again for clarification i commended rhe new guys dude!!

I have to reiterate that you have won twice in a row. It is recorded in the blockchain. Give chance to other writers. The world doesn't revolve around you. You are spoiling the win of those who were just announced as victors. They won so be happy for them. Be happy for the judges for making an effort to really read the post. No sour graping for winning just 1.5 Steem.

This comment was made from https://ulogs.org

Bro chances are given to every writer and i commend everyone you just reading extra meanings to this because you didn't understand my first comment. Well ✌

"Though the results are confusing. How was it judged?" That is how you question the integrity of judges and fruits of their labor. The fruits of their labor happens to be the winners of this contest. Peace.

@mdominicorobin, @kilatunzii, you'll won too! Congrats and enjoy the win!!

just be thankful I've had a couple of weeks off ! (that is a joke btw )

I think that everyone should be as supportive of each other as possible in the spirit of the contest. Everyone's struggling along in life, like everyone else.

If someone wins week after week, they are still working incredibly hard to make that winning entry and the win probably means alot to them. be nice :)

I just read @kilatunzii's entry that won him various positions. And I must confess they are great. I don't see anything like a "boilerplate gif" and the gif were awarded bonuses. So I think maybe both of you have something going on. And if you do, @originalworks comment box is most certainly the wrong place to showcase it. Please let's be guided.

Funny enough i have never encountered @mdominicorobin before so i don't know whats up.

Let us be honest. If you are going to win just by emphasizing aesthetics then this is not a writing contest. You will win just by following the cookie cutter week after week. But this time around he was surprised because he fell to 1.5 Steem. Writing is about substance and not about aesthetics. We don't care if you win weekly but what I can't stomach is the mere fact that you question the criteria of the judges. It is not our job. Our job is to write. Copy and paste the the post of @originalworks. That is your MO. This time around all of you are asking the same question which is suspicious. There is a conspiracy to get all the prizes for one person? That is not fair. "How was the judging like?" That is very suspicious question. Especially when those who have lost are asking the same question. This is not a coincidence this is an orchestration to blackmail @originalworks. Put me in a polygraph and I tell you that I am glad that the new people have won since they really deserve it.

Calm down homie. We'll all have a contest again. This time, we are all gunning for the win. Let's just let this one slide eh??

Well said. Yeah. Good writers are good liars after all. If you win week after week and the other writers are saying that you wrote an excellent article. Then it is definitely not a good article. It is the original post of @originalpost and you copied and pasted it and you won week after week while others are struggling with a unique presentation and exposition. You guys are using plagiarism to win. While most of us are not. Is this what they are teaching you in school. Plagiarism is not allowed but you have to embrace it to win Steem. If that happens the contest will get old. And you have the nerve to say that how was the judging like after losing. Is that how you do things in real life.

There appears to be some confusion so I would like to clear a few things up.

Although we do have certain criteria by which the contest is judged, that criteria can be altered depending on the contest as well as sponsor.

I will consider implementing a proper appeal channel for the future. That being said, there were many good works.

We do everything in our power to keep the contest as unbiased as we can to offer everybody an equal chance at winning.

The missing video bonuses have been corrected.

Feel free to message @originalworks if you have concerns for the time being.

Also, with an increase in quality writing, it is possible that there will be a change in the bonus structure to award more authors for upcoming events!

Congratulations to all the winners!
Thanks again @Originalworks

Wow!!!... Trying to wrap my head around the results... Anyways... All good... There's always a Next time.. congrats
