Giving Away 500 Steem To One Random Person

in #steem5 years ago

So you've read the title. That's pretty much it aside from a few rules that I'll implement to make this a bit fairer, nothing too major, but essentially just ensuring that the 500 Steem will go to someone that will actually use it rather than sell it, or someone that's actually in need of the Steem Power as opposed to someone that already has quite a bit.

Steem is a great platform but it's suffering drastically. We have changes coming that are supposed to fix a few issues, but who knows? Perhaps these changes benefit smaller users and result in positive market movements and more users, perhaps they don't. Either way, people need Steem to perform certain actions on the network. Resource Credits are beneficial. To have those, you need Steem Power. That's where I come in with this giveaway. Nothing too major, but enough to get someone small going.

Steem has plenty of whales. Most aren't really doing anything to distribute the wealth or play their part in the bigger picture. Some are, and are doing some great things in attempting to raise Steem awareness and ensure things play out as intended; distributing wealth and promoting curation. My giveaway probably won't be anything particularly huge, but it sends the message that even those with smaller accounts can do a better job. My Steem is worth nothing if your Steem is worth nothing, understand? Working together generates growth.

If you're a high SP individual and reading this, feel free to Resteem and get a few more eyes on this post. You may not be eligible, but many of your followers may very well be.

Now that's over:

I want you to tell my why you would want 500 Steem, and what you would do with it. Who would it benefit? Why you? What are you doing to curate content? Are you creating your own content as well? What is that content? Essentially, sell yourself in the comments here. It won't end there, however. I will be checking the comments and looking at the content people post, checking on their curation habits and seeing who really is doing their best to grow on here, alongside other users. I'm not looking for stellar content, I'm not looking for specific content. I'm looking at what stands out the most.

  • High reputation helps, as there will be a certain threshold between what's eligible and what isn't. New accounts, obviously, will be ignored.
  • Your current Steem Power will be considered.
  • Your actions on the network will be considered; a person that donates their tiny stake to bid bots won't be seen in a higher note than those who don't. That just tells me you'll continue with the 500 Steem you receive.
  • All types of content are fine, but I will be checking on it and seeing the effort put in as well as the rewards you typically receive.

There's currently no due date for you to submit yourself, I'll be making another post at a later date announcing who will receive the Steem. Understandably 500 Steem isn't a lot in today's market, but remember that it very well could be once things change. It could easily serve as the foundations to growing an account once the 50/50 reward split kicks in.

I haven't done anything like this before, so don't get upset if I fuck up a little and remember a worthy rule or make some changes to the competition. Either way, someone is still going to receive 500 Steem for free.

That's all for now, have fun.

Sort:  

It has now been 7 days and the comments have slowed down significantly. Since the last was posted 19 hours ago, I will only accept them for another 5 more hours. After that, I will no longer consider new posts and will begin the process of picking a winner, alongside a few extra gifts; this will be announced in another post.

Good luck to you all. :D

wow. I can believe I missed this rare ooportunity, sadly I just saw the post after 10days

I guess I am surprised at the fact that nobody thought of us. @heyhaveyamet and @steemterminal both the accounts and the discord .
while we help so many people each day. To be honest whatever sea mamel you are , everybody would love 500 steem for free, but if it’s just to power up your account come on, we can do so much more with it. Look at the Red Fish rally we do !
And all the people we teach in our steemterminal discord for NOTHING, every single day, well I guess I am just surprised.
BUT
WE WOULD LOVE THE 500 SO PLEASE CONSIDER @STEEMTERMINAL OR @HEYHAVEYAMET because new accounts are our future

ummm... I'll fifth it then?!

Oh no, I upvoted you, not you're 'second-ing' again ;P

I will second that @namiks, as I have watched many new Steemians get massively more exposure through @brittandjosie and @xcountytravelers and @heyhaveyamet and also many new Steemians getting some awesome guidance from @thekittygirl and @medromartin and @wesphilbin from @SteemTerminal to get them pointed in the right direction.

And you provide much guidance and support there, too, @jamerussell 😉

This team where you are part of too is doing their utmost and needs recognition!
Thank you for the shout out @jamerussell

Did I beat YOU

I thought you were on a very long plain flight so I guess I took a chance hihih

Tomorrow morning!

Fourth!! :0)

I six it! We could use the to get more new the help they need. So glad you all saw this! I have been trying to figure out how to help more and this would be perfect.
Ren

Infinity!!!!

Heyhaveyamet is quite a cool thing. Keep up the amazing work!

Just out of curiosity, is there a reason why you're not using some of the SP you have to delegate and support those initiatives?

Hi @namiks , Great question out of curiosity , well Nobody asked me! but I give away all my comments and votes every day to the cause and do so much beside my own account and we are pretty successful that way and with the coming fork that might be an option but I am not running a GIVEAWAY you are!
I answered your question from this blog being :
I want you to tell my why you would want 500 Steem, and what you would do with it.
And I answered:
And if you give the 500 either to @steemterninal or
@heyhaveyamet and ask me nicely I will delegate !
Good luck choosing
And well done
Love some sparring questions!

@namiks,

A wonderful thing to offer


Between my #thoughtfuldailypost movement, as well as being a Moderator for the @steemterminal and writer for the @steembasicincome Group, I try to spread positive energy on the Blockchain, through helping Steemians "amplify their awesome" as well as showcasing prominent members of the #sbi initiative. If I were to recieve this wonderful gift, I would divide it, and share to the communities that I have mentioned, to continue providing much needed positive energy and love. Thank you for offering to help others, and thank you for your consideration.

Hey @namiks.

I really appreciate you from whole heart for taking this big step and generously offering steem.

I am here shamelessly nominating myself for the opportunity.
Who don't love to recieve the 500 steem..huh 😛.

I have joined the steem in this year January and didn't stopped single day to post or curate till now. I am from India so I tried to connect all the people from my country and increased the organic engagement on each other account.

Like you, I too worry sometimes that big whales are not playing active role in encouraging or motivating newbies or good content creators, but I want to start change it from myself by helping every newbie I came across.

I have also started curation from @steemindian with little delegation by few to benefit the people who create content and in need of support. The community is around with 60 active Steemians who promote steem.

The prize steem if I win will be powered up and to reward more people to encourage quality of content they produce here.

I am also curator of Appics posts of Steemians. I will curate minimum 10-20 posts on the platform everyday which are best.

You can check my activity in the below by @steemitboard. I have given 10000 upvotes in this short span of time of 6 months, That much active I am on the platform. I have also reached Reputation of 60 in this period of time because of constant support of members.

As the upcoming of 50:50 split, this reward for me do great benefit for the all the members I curate.

Thanks for giving me this opportunity to share my work on the platform. All the best to whoever win this ☺️

I appreciate all the effort you have put together to create a community to support newbies. It's not shameless bro, it's selfless. Being a member of the @steemindian community, I know how you helped each and everyone including me. All the best @hungryharish and keep steeming.

Understandably 500 Steem isn't a lot in today's market, but remember that it very well could be once things change.

Hello?? Five hundred is a lot of steem! I am a died in the wool Steemian and continue to grow every day. I enjoy the interaction among everyone, especially true and genuine back and forth.

I can honestly say that I try to help, in small ways and perhaps they are too small to count, but, I like to encourage commenting and so I upvote and tip every comment that takes the time to read my posts.

I host the #MarketFriday challenge (although people refer to it as MarketWeekend as we accept entries from any day!) :) I upvote and tip anyone who comes over and comments and I ask them to drop the link to their post there so that I can visit the post they made for the challenge, then upvote, resteem and comment on theirs. I do run down my voting power, so sometime I must give only .10 but, I try to make it up with a tip or bigger tip.

Saying that, I belong to #Powerhousecreatives, which is a wonderful place that encourages and helps many grow! That should have been my first mention, but, I was thinking individual.

Do I deserve it more than anyone? I think that anyone who is helping people grow is a great candidate! I just hope that is me! :)

!tip .20

A very kind and amazing person. I really love the #MarketFriday. I hope more end of joining it out of seeing about here. It’s quite easy for anyone to make a post for and they are very inviting.

Thank you xo

I would like to nominate @classical-radio. It is a curation account that I run to help curate music and music related posts in the #classical-music, #jazz and #folk music tags. These are types of music that normally get overlooked on the STEEM blockchain as they are not quite as visible as other forms of music. It's a project that I've run for quite some time through good times and bad times... just plugging away, helping others grow their accounts slowly over time. It's a pretty niche genre though...

Roughly 70% percent of it's liquid post earnings go straight to the featured musicians. It isn't a lot... but it is something.

Very cool project that I often don’t check out enough. Bengy is quite passionate about music! It’s nice to see stuff like this on Steem.

Thaks for the support!

How very generous @namiks! Very cool thing to do! :-)
Congratulations to who receives this awesomeness!
I could sure use a boost to help give more than a dust level vote.
Tho I'm sure many other awesome steemians are more deserving
of the SP than myself.

I curate for boulders, rocks, mountains, cool art and photography
that catches my eyes, especially shadows. I like helping where I can.
I like supporting a few contests like @melinda010100's shadow
contest, @googlyeyes, @tattoodjay's walk, @whatisnew's butterflies
and a number of others.

I have really been enjoying this wonderful community Steem has.
If I'm not chosen please consider my friend @whatisnew!

I love me some @shasta! Great contests in this list. yum

Wow! Cool thing you're doing here. Resteemed for more exposure.

Can I invite some people?
@dkkarolien, @cicisaja, @anouk.nox, @fionasfavourites, @drippingdrizzles, @borjan, @kayda-ventures, @tryskele, @extractum-lunae, @theartofori
Come over and take a look

And I second the nomination of @brittandjosie: @steemterminal and @heyhaveyamet have helped so many new people already.... They can use a little extra - they definitely deserve it

Thank you for the mention @simplymike. I endorse your suggestions. I would love to have nominated myself as I keep on wanting to do some extra curation - especially of noobs - but things keep on running away from me...

but things keep on running away from me…

What do you mean?

My schedule with its interruptions... I😱

You're welcome :0)

You're welcome ;0D

Thank you, friend! ☺️

Greetings! @namiks it is my pleasure to read your wonderful articles by helping small fishes like plankton. I will never regret this wonderful plan to my account I started since 2017 and I am in-active in 1 year and a half and now I am back and keep steeming. My plan now is to powering up my account which is I did last month at present. as you can see I am now hitting my first 300SP and I will never power down till I hit dolphin so I can now support the small fishes as well. Hope my plan guide to my goal and help as to reach the plan in the future for the brighter community supporter in the future. Thank you and good luck to all of us.

500 steem is a lot to me 🙈 I’d love to be considered. My husband @contrabourdon has completely converted me into a Steemian. We joke about it a lot. I’m relatively new to it, but I’m here to invest and stay and learn. There’s so much to learn but I’m getting there! I’m focusing on creating original content that I hope entertains, educates and inspires others. I’ve been posting carefully prepared content each day and even entered into some of the fun contests on here. I make an effort to curate content and upvote those who are posting good stuff. Good on you for encouraging the bigger picture and supporting others.
