The Old Dog Presents: Our Second Steemit Trading Card. It's a Beauty!

in #steemitcard7 years ago (edited)

After starting off as a Steemit failure this member kept going and blogged himself onto the 2017 Steemit All Star team! Who is he? Let's find out!

After @papa-pepper was rewarded with our first ever Steemit Trading Card he was asked for his opinion on who should come next.In his own words and with no hesitation he made our next pick because "I just wanted to pick a longtime active member who also was not  one of the main people in the spotlight every day"


We Present The Super Scintillating Scotsman @meesterboom!


@meesterboom is a deserving Steemit Card member! Dang he looks good!



Do you agree that @meesterboom has a really nice backside? At least his card does!


Here you can see his front side and his backside at the same time. Please don't try that at home! 

Here is The Full Text as it Appears On The Card

Joined: July 2016   

Location: Glasgow, Scotland     

After a rough start with many of his first posts earning big fat zeros this street smart, quick witted, pun flinging, brogue talking, husband, father, artist, musician, poet, cook, cartoonist, cheese maker, beer guzzling yarn spinner was relentless. Could he break out of Steemit obscurity the same way he'd escaped the tough Govan area of Glasgow and become a Steemit All-Star? Oh yeah!   

By honing his writing, formatting and graphic skills this hilarious and friendly Scotsman has gone from zero to Steemit Hero and has lowered the boom on the Steemit blockchain!    

Reputation: Boasting a hard earned 72.3 @meesterboom has the 61st highest reputation!   

Followers: With over 3250 @meesterboom continues his ascent up in the rankings!   

Posts: With Over 20,500 posts this Steemit Star interacts with others to the tune of over 45 times a day! Now that’s a true blue Steemer!   

Random fact: 2.3 is the average number of times you'll reach for a dictionary when reading his brogue laced posts.   

How Did @meesterboom do it? 

His advice: "Post regularly, comment, vote and never lose heart! Concentrate on your posts and on building a following and NOT on the rewards! Write stuff that YOU enjoy because it WILL pay off!”   

Here is Card Number One Presented Again With a Slight Format Change!


   Anyone would be hard pressed to look cooler than this! Don't you agree?

A Special Mention Goes to the Following Members!

  • @airmatti for his awesome design. I have sent him 20 Steem as part of this ongoing @steemgigs
  • @steemitadventure and @fishmon  who are also producing trading cards in a completely  different style! Please check them out and support them too!

Who Will Receive The Next Steemit Trading Card?

I've asked @meesterboom to select the next well deserving member and as a special bonus he will be writing the text for the card in true @meesterboom style. I for one can't wait to see the finished product!

What do You think?

  • Who would you recommend as deserving of a Steemit Trading Card?
  • Once we have a small stack would you like to have a physical copy?


I hope that you enjoyed this presentation of "Our Second Steemit Trading Card."


Until next time,


@kus-knee (The Old Dog)

Your one of the coolest "heroes" on the COOLEST blockchain platform on earth!

Cheers!

I will agree with you!! :0)

Hahahahaha I hope so!

Personalized bracelets, and now this?!?!!?

It's wild! Thank you @papa-pepper for suggesting me!

You provided the right example, attitude and material. Well deserved @meesterboom!

Cheers old dawg!!! :0)

I love it too meesterboom. BTW how's lady boom and lil boom in there doing?

She is massive and groaning with child. Hopefully just about ready to pop!

This is a pretty awesome card, you can be proud :D

It is pretty excellent. I am very happy with it!

Thank you for posting @kus-knee.

What a fantastic choice.....yes.... @meesterboom is a winner.

Congratulations @meesterboom.

So many yet to go......@opheliafu.....@gavvet....@englishtchrivy....@virtual-growth......@maarnio.....@majes[email protected] many more in the rich history of hard-working Steemians.

Would bleujay like a physical copy......interesting idea....when it is so virtual....that is not a bad idea.

All the best. Cheers.

Thanks for your great comment with all of those super Steemer suggestions! They will without doubt be added to the list!

nice one Old Dawg!
he resteemed this and I freakin thought it was his post hhaha

Yes we're having fun and someone has thrown your name into the hat! Obviously!

I nominate you :p!
yes, I read :)
thanks @bleujay!

A fantastic list!! I think it would be remiss if you weren't considered :0)

Very kind of you to say....@meesterboom.

However the particular status of the characters in @scottish01's latest sci-fi is best for bleujay.

Looking forward to a @meesterboom trading card......too bad there was not enough room on the card for the portrait of you with @papa-pepper by @bullionstackers. The Twins...... ^_^

All the best to you and your family. Cheers.

@scottish01's latest was very good!

I always liked that sketch. A touch of genius!!

Congrats @meesterboom! Very inspiring!

P.S.:

I did reach to the dictionary to find the meaning for "brogue laced posts". 😊

You reaching for the dictionary is a good sign because @meesterboom has me doing it regularly!

lol! same here :D

This is awesome - the card design is looking better than ever! Meesterboom is one of my favorite steemians, and I'm sure I am not alone in that opinion.

I'd vote for a @steevc trading card - he's one of the most consistent steemians ever!

Aw you are a gentleman and no mistake! Tip! 0.5

@steevc is another deserving member! I've been following him since day one!

Very nice. I want to trade 1 papa-pepper unsigned for 1 meesterboom..

Hahaha Good One!

can I kindly ask you to check my post and vote for me as witness? I would really appreciate it.. https://steemit.com/witness-category/@rival/rival-new-witness-on-the-block-chasing-my-dreams

Thank you.. I also hope that you consider to vote for me as witness. That would help me achieving my dreams. it's free and helps the steemit community.

Just open: "Vote for witnesses"

In the bottom type in: rival and select vote.

All small letters and without the @ sign

Let me know if you have questions regarding the witness vote. I would be pleased to answer it. Your vote counts for me to break even in a couple of months.. I invested a monthly fee in a server to help the steemit blockchain

Maybe on the long run it could help me to achieve my goals..

I was just thinking about the wonderful trading card...Maybe it's an idea also to create a website where every steemit user can see his own card based on your design choice... You type in your name and the card is displayed with some nice stats... I would really love to see that.. I also want to help in this effort.. I am not a programmer but I can do a lot of other things.. and I am happy to pay for the 1st year domain registration... Do you like this idea?

Thanks a lot for this exciting project initiative, I might give a hand (or a mouse? ) but you and everyone supporting and participating are the real essence! Can't wait to see who's next! ;)

Thanks for your great job with the design. @meesterboom has already sent me the text for the next card. I need to get in touch with member and go over a few things and then Ill get back to you!

hahaha, it's meester boom....can't wait to see lil boom.

When is your card gonna be available Old Dog Kus-Kee? can't wait

Yes @meesterboom is expected a little boom it's true!

Amazing idea and even better execution! The cards look great, and you could not have picked better for the first two cards. Can't wait to see more!

Thanks so much for your encouraging words. This project is a lot of fun and I hope to keep it going until we have a nice stack of cards!

Ahhhhhh this is GREAT to see!

@meesterboom is a fantastic dude and this card sure does him a great honor!

Love seeing this series, its really good for Steemit and I can tell people are enjoying it. Soon everyone is going to be wishing to be on these glorious cards and for those honored enough to make it will be beaming with joy when they make it!

Looking forward to the next in your series! Keep up the great work!

To SteemFinity and Beyond!

There are a lot of deserving Steemit members! You should be one of them!

Yes there are.

I would be honored to be one of the chosen in the series and would do GREAT promotion for the popularity and success of the card series!

Fulll Steem Ahead!
