Season 2 of The Diary Game has now ended.

All diary entries covering up to September 25th should be posted by the end of September 27th at the latest.

As announced yesterday The Diary Game will be continuing in its new format. We hope many of you will keep posting your diaries.

We will still be voting on Diary Game posts in the new Season 3 but votes will not be guaranteed.

The 'It's Your Lucky Day' promotion for 100% Power Up posts will also be continuing. As will the 'OnePercenters' comment voting initiative.



Season 2 Voting, Scoring and Prizes

We will be busy the next few days visiting as many posts as we possibly can and giving catch-up votes for missed posts where people have continued to publish their diaries.

Season 3 posts will count to receive 'backdated' catch-up votes so if you do continue writing you maximize your chances of getting a nice surprise upvote.

We will be announcing more about how the prize funds will be split for the individual contest (5000 STEEM), team contest (2000 STEEM) and recruiter contest (1000 STEEM) shortly.

Then we hope to announce the winners within about a week.


Just as a small aside when we are reviewing Diary Game posts to decide the vote and points there are a number of factors we take into consideration.

Alongside the more obvious ones - presentation, formatting, quality of writing, images, rule adherence etc - the three biggest factors, particularly after we have so many posts, are perseverance, interest, and positivity.

People who have continued to post regularly, and kept their posts positive and interesting, attract higher points and votes from us.

Surprisingly those who stop and start and stop again, and continually complain in their posts and comments about not getting votes and how badly run the Diary Game is, do not attract higher points and votes.

Participation in the Diary Game is purely voluntary.

It is not a job, it is a game.


Coming Up Next

Once Season 2 of the Diary Game is completed and the prizes awarded, we will be turning our attention full on again to all the new projects and programs coming up including...


And don't forget the Sow Your SUN Challenge with big prizes on offer, runs until September 28th...


There will also be more Country Representatives coming on stream, and in a couple of days we will be announcing a major, big prize October Challenge.

If all this doesn't look like there is enough going on we still have a number of totally new projects currently being worked on, and we may be bringing back a 'golden oldie' for a short run.


Stay tuned, stay positive, keep posting and have fun.

Thank you,

The Steemit Team

Yup, I agree with this. I saw lots of people complaining about not getting votes or being actually offensive/rude to curators and seriously, I don't think that that's what someone looks for when spending time in Steemit. And that doesn't add up as a community either.
Thank you for such hard work curating and coming up with all this interesting ideas! We really appreciate it! :)

It makes me wondering too, they think their daily activities worth that much and so valuable to the community on steemit that their diary must be upvote by steemcurator01 with 100$ worth vote 🙄🤯 are they the Kardashian of steemit?

Loooooll, you made me laugh so hard 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Of course, every post and every participant is valuable. This is mining put on stream with minimal resource consumption. Only man-hours, but you think it's expendable...

You must have a hundred-dollar obsession. From what ceiling did you get this figure at all? Here we are talking about attention and at least a small reward. People are happy and a couple of three bucks for the post...

No one said that every post and participant wasn't valuable, that's what you figured out. What is being discussed here is how people only come here to complain over and over and over again. Just like you are doing, lady.

Am I complaining? You have a false impression! I'm fine, I'm just sorry for the time spent on this game and the people who invited and they are now offended at me that they were not visited by the curator.

the problem is with you, to begin with, you promising them about steemcurator01 will be visiting their post when you inviting them into the game, now you blaming steemit team for the thing you promised to those people 🙄

People are happy and a couple of three bucks for the post...

People who always complaining never get satisfied.. you give them 3 bucks then they come complaining why those people get more than 3 bucks, I want more to make me happy too,, and on and on..

Don't judge by yourself, not all people are like that...

Dear @lil4a

Here we are talking about attention and at least a small reward. People are happy and a couple of three bucks for the post.

I agree with your thoughts !! but why don't they discuss their problem to the curator of their country?

I think only value packed content should be convinced for upvote.

@fendit should I cry seeing their complaints? 🤣🤣🤣

I think if your posts weren't richly rewarded, the odes of praise wouldn't be coming from you right now. Are you serious? Look who praises the organizers and curators, only those who have no delays in curating posts.

Odes of praise? Lol!!
Check out my latest posts from the Diary game:
have they been rewarded? Nope.
Do I feel the need to complain about it? No.
Why? Cause sooner or later, they will curate ALL posts, they have already made it clear a lot of times in countless posts. And still, there's people working hard behind every curator account, there's no need for anyone to be rude or disrespectful. I don't need to be rewarded to be grateful towards someone that shows how hard they're working and coming up with ideas to make Steemit grow.
It's a shame you can't see it this way and it's even worse that you point out this things to someone without even talking to me or getting to know what I do here/why I chose Steemit. That talks way too much about who you are and how you get along with things.
Wish you the best :)

Yes, at least you don't lie to yourself, I probably visited your blog before writing this comment, and I saw all your rated posts.

Excellent friend qSteemtiblog.

Very interesting everything that is happening and what is to come, this will even raise the participation of people who are active in Steemit, there are many good people who every day plays an important role in our platform.

In the meantime, from today I'll be weaving a week of #PromoSteem, from the streets to the networks.

Successes in the activities to come.

Я очень рада, что дневниковая запись будет и далее вестись. Обязательно буду принимать участие!

Gracias por la actualización, me encanta el juego del diario y me parece genial que siga activo,
Lo mejor está por venir!

Saludos y bendiciones @steemitblog!!

Thank you very much for all the effort you are making @steemitblog. Not only from curation, but also from brainstorming to keep users engaged with #steemit. #thediarygame has been a beautiful game, which in my case, helped me create a habit. Thanks for that! And what is coming is spectacular! I am sure that there will be publications that are very rich in content, since there are experts from different fields on the platform. Thanks for everything and also for promoting positivity.

Thanks for sharing this link with me @ciska

Whoever is behind @steemitblog is doing great job (in my opinion). Truth is - there is no way we could satisfy everyone. And it's important to decide who do we want to support with upvotes.

Those who complain about not receiving upvote shall not be your target audience. People who care about profits in the first place are not going to stick around for any other reason.

Keep up with great work you do guys,
Yours, Piotr

this is awesome update,,, will surely check all the links specially @rishabh99946 ... as always you have my commitment with #the1000daysofSteem ... God bless and looking forward to more fund and positive activities in Steemit! 🥰
