For the just-concluded week-5 contest, we received a total of 28 entries within the contest's validity period. We recorded 2 invalid entries to this contest.

Performance Distribution

From statistics, it seems most users didn't understand the contest theme very well because just 2 entries got a score of 9 and above, 9 entries scored between 8 to 8.9, 2
7 entries got the score between 7 to 7.9, then 6 entries got average score of 5 to 6.9. We notice 2 entries were below average and hence they failed in the contest.

From the metric above, We would like to encourage users who didn't score too high or who scored below average to improve on their entries and presentation subsequently.

Week3 Top 3 Users

We have come out with our selection of the top 3 users in the last week's contest on understanding the Steem Blockchain. The selection process is not only considered base on scores alone but it's considered base on both scores and general engagement with other participants in the contest.

There are some articles that scored high but didn't engaged with other entries and as such, they were left out of the selection. They didn't engagement to comments under their post and were more focused in others articles. It should be noted that this is an engagement challenge and we hope users can engage to the best of their ability.
