Steemit Talent Contest has just been attacked with flags saying my contest is not genuine because on this first semi-final post instead of keeping the SBD to myself I have decided to give it away along with all SBD gained from my comments (the voting system) to the winner!!!

You may read the whole comments here on the original post.

With 12 semi-finalists the easiest way I could think to tally up the winner was to make 12 comments myself saying “i vote for Week … @…….to win and asking the voters to upvote the comment. The one with the most upvotes at the end of the 7 days wins! Simple.

And so I couldn't be accused of asking people to upvote my comments for my own gain I stated that I WILL BE GIVING ALL THE SBD gained from upvoting those comments and also from the post to the winner to add to the 20STEEM jackpot kindly sponsored by Hive account@luzcypher.

I am so confused. I asked for the upvotes on my comments to make it easy to tally the winner. Im giving away ALL of the SBD gained so how exactly am I worthy of a flag because “I'm looking after my own interests?” Huh??

If there is one thing I really cant stand in life its those people who always try to drag others down and look for reasons to be offended or try to destroy something good another is working hard to create. Ive worked very hard to build a nice community here on Steemit and I really don't see what is wrong with giving up my SBD on a post and the comments. Do you?? I'd love to hear your views below.

Thanks
