RE: Sour Grapes...

I don't know how to respond to this post. I listen to and upvote each one of your Open Mic posts.

The first few weeks you entered you were also picked up by @curie which helped boost your posts. They will not pick you up every week though once you reach a certain level because they focus on new authors.

Your music is good and you shouldn't base your value on the number of upvotes you get. Also, I'm looking at your tags for this post and the only two tags I see that will get you views is openmic and music. There is no one looking in the fruit sickness or oldies tag at all so using those tags is like posting to yourself.

You are not the only person to post on OpenMic and do really well at first and then drop off after a while. This has happened to everyone including OpenMic itself. There are countless weeks that I give more Steem away than I get back from people upvoting and I'm OK with that because I'm building community more than anything else.

Sometimes I get a fraction back from OpenMic that I give away. Steemit is a bit of a lottery. Try to remember that and our focus is building community more than anything. This is supposed to be fun.

what ever do you mean.This is a general post.I dont know much about tags.It is not for open mic but for the fact that no one listens to my music on openmic. It is sarcasm at best. You always at least put your Mark,but not always a comment.I am in dismay at how little attention I get.I am stuck in a foreign land(for me PHil) and enjoy playing,and am Grateful for the program you have started. I have given many kudos to, and for you,have voted for you as a witness,and for steemfest etc.I have nothing but admiration towards you and pfunk and at least one judge besides you,so Please,make that pretty please(with sugar on top) don't take it personally. I am just seeing if I might pick up some votes as a crazed writer of sorts.I didn't expect you to show up.I apologize to you on a personal note. I don't understand why some of week 56 end up behind 55 no matter when they are put on openmic. I am sure that is an I T issue ,not yours. So try to understand my frustration,as I see the same group seemingly every week.I dont care if I win...I just want to make some extra money.I am semi-retired and going nuts over here!Again,let's begin anew,and I hope there will be NO hard feelings on your end,as I think you have a hard job,and you do it well. I may not agree with all the judges picks,and that some overdub,and some have more than one account,but I will just say from the part of me that is non political,and just musical...THANKS!

I will try to tone it down. You and pfunk are doing a top notch job.
