My Steemit Newbie Resteem Post - Week 17

          Here is the link to my first #newbieresteemday post. It contains the links to @mudcat36 and @davemccoy 's Newbie Resteem Initiative. This is my week 17 posting. First weekly post was made on Jan. 14, 2018. The reach that #newbieresteemday tag has had is phenomenal.

          So, if you are new to steemit and meet the criteria below I will try to help at least one individual that responds:

• a steemit newbie, that has a rank of not more than 45
• has a good and quality blog
• has less than 90 days on steemit
• I will only resteem One post, and that is not a guarantee

          If you would like your blog be resteemed, read, commented on, and voted on, leave a link to one of your blog post in the comments below and I will try to help. If you have a question I will try to answer it, or direct you to someone or a post that may be of help. Steemit can be overwhelming at times, but there are people that do try to take the time and help others.

Where you can Find us

@newbieresteemday - This is our primary account, and the one that does the majority of the resteems, although most members will resteem a few post. On our home blog page you will find on the banner the link to our discord chat room.

@newbiegames - This is our page that we utilize to highlight and support games and challenges, and where we occasionally run our own games and challenges for the not just the new users, but for all users of steemit. We try to feature games and challenge that do not have overly complicated entry rules, and mos of the games do not charge even a vote to play, it is if you have the Vote Power available always appreciated to vote on a game you are playing in, as most of the smaller games rely on the post pay out for the awards pool.

Discord Chat Room - Here is where you can go to find all kinds of help, or to just find someone to chat with. We have a lot of information and assistants rooms on the left hand room links, and a post promotion dropbox that people use to find new content from members to look over.

My week 16 Posting - I have included this link because it has a table of all my other weekly Newbieresteemday Postings. Each of them are a little bit different and have various things highlighted, from how to's with picture/link manipulation to highlighting various groups and people. (The table was getting pretty big and taking up a lot of room).

          I continue to promote @apolymask Information Finding Contest. I have met so many nice people and helpful people, and some pretty damn fine quality postings and conversations through those postings. It does not matter that you may have different thoughts and opinions, people are still very respectful of your right to think how you want to think.

          Round 32, and catch up round 33, have just been announced. Several new participants have found the game through this post and similar postings. There is still more than enough time if you are upto some fun and games and meeting new interesting creative people. We are getting very close to the end of season one so now is the time to jump in and try to qualify for the final 16 rounds picks.

          If you need help understanding the rules, or the concept, just ask myself or any of the players we will try to help. I feel this contest is a super great way for new users to get a leg up, while having fun and making some friends on steemit, and learning how things work, all of the participants are real people, they will help if you ask.

          The beginning of IFC (Information Finding Championship), and Newbieresteemday initiative, was very close to each other, and I have been a member and a participant in both since the start up of each. I have truly enjoyed myself, and met some wonderful people, and had many good conversations with both groups.

          "The Marketplace" is an offshoot of IFC and the IFC discord chat room. We have several game/challenge participants, over 30, and a lot of followers of the games. In the IFC Discord room we are approaching 100 or more users. We have pretty much built/grown generically a "Community". All communities need a place to shop, and relax, so there was a desire among the community residents for "The Marketplace".

          Last week I profiled a little bit on "The Marketplace", it is now open and available. We have several Rooms/Vendors and some of them are already making deals and enjoying the ability to reach people, and people are finding it easier to find that Artist or business they need or "Yard Sell Item" they have been looking for. Need something special? Visit the vendors today.

          This is a weekly contest that is being run by @thedarkhorse. It is a simple contest, and one that even new users can participate in. Why would you as a new user want to participate? First it will give you an opportunity to create a post, it will give you the opportunity to find quality content from users like you that are new and will very likely appreciate the fact that you "Profiled" them for the "Pay it Forward" contest. Every week on about Wednesday, the new round is issued, week 5 is in process, so you still have one day to play in round 5.
