Winners Announcement of the September, 2023 Challenge

Designed using canva

The long awaited day has finally come to stay. After 30 days of consistently writing on this platform, let's see what we got. It was really a tough challenge. A challenge where for the first time the challengers reduce to 4 because of disqualification. This was actually one of the best challenge so far. Guess who beat this month's challenge! Almost all the remaining challengers.

These users nailed the challenge single handedly with the best of strategies they could come up with. Last challenge being August, we were to hit 200 SP and this month, it was reduced to 150 SP but even at that, a lot of users nailed it and some even went as far as 300 SP.

The challenge aimed at helping steemians, set targets, become consistent on the platform and grow their steem power without being forced to. Could it be @bela90, @saintkelvin17, @jozzie90 or @yhudy? Let's find out.

They were 8 challengers which their usernames are;

• @jozzie90
• @entity01
• @uduak3287
• @emmy01
• @yhudy
• @bela90
• @morgan76 and
• @saintkelvin17

Out of these 8, 4 got disqualified due to certain things while 4 persisted till the end. I commend them both those who quit and those who struggled till the end.

So who got it? Who beat the challenge? Let me run down a quick evaluation of the 5 challengers who stood firm so as to see the winner. Out of the 8 users, 3 got disqualified. Let's see what others got.

@yhudy

@yhudy was on 282SP and was to reach 437 SP first. She actually made 67 steems and reached 356 SP for this month's challenge, meaning that she added 72 steem power to the one she had already. Her effort to hit her target is commendable although she was challenged by external factors but still pushed through. Even when she saw people hit their targets first, she didn't give up. That's one thing I like about her in challenge and would reward her specially. She won't let a day pass her by. Such consistency.

@jozzie90

The greatest young lion of all time. He didn't give in to the pressure of quitting even though he saw the winner. The way he consistently create contents on this platform as a newbie and also win contests marvels me. I can recall when hhe created 3 quality posts in a day. He also engage on people's post consistently. @bela90 was on 184 SP. She was to reach 334 SP first but couldn't although he tried tremendously well as the only newbie in this challenge.

He made 313 SP and 112 steems which means out of 150 steem power he was expected to make, he made 129. Quite impressive. Anyways, he tried his best in being consistent. He hit 80% of his target. I felt the fire burning in his eyes. If he was given more time, he would have quashed it.

@bela90

I've come to believe the saying that what a man can do, a man can do better. This user is very consistent and doesn't give up easily. She should be awarded for this consistent. The only lioness that fought her way through other lions. At least we have two lioness in this challenge and she's one of the winners. Blessed is she among Lions. She tried hitting the challenge first before others but someone overtook her though. Anyways, she nailed her target and that's the essence of this challenge. She was the first holder and due to some factors, didn't see it coming. She is one of the many that has taught me consistency on steemit.

Guess what, she did hit her target some days ago after I had created this content but unable to post. I'm really impressed. She made a total of 124 steems and 2,543SP which means she made 159 steem power. Is she the winner? Let's see.

@saintkelvin17

What a woman can do, a man can do better. The conqueror, the champion, the Lion is here. His roar was the loudest as his grace was just too sufficient. He challenged himself, saying he would try his best to hit his target and wasn't just after defeating others. He had the highest amount of Steem power first before others and he hit his target in three weeks. He was on 2,203 SP and was able to reach 2,503 SP.

Guess what, he hit his target of 150 SP first under 3 weeks and then went on to reaching 300 SP. So impressive. He's a real definition of what consistency is and asides consistency, grace followed him and had a hand in his growth. If I were to allow his posts pay out, he would have gotten more. He made a total of 61 steems and 2,508 which means he made 305 steem power out of 150 SP. Is he the winner? Let's see.
