The Winners of 500 SP Delegation! (And many more great People)

It is time! My delegation contest has ended. For one week, minnows could write a post, detailing their involvement in the community and leave me a comment with it. And I read them all.

The choice wasn't easy. Okay, that is an understatement, it was freaking hard to choose the winners. So many great people, so many great projects! How could I choose just two?

So I didn't.

I chose four.

This still didn't make the choice much easier tho. I thank Hive account@geekpowered and Hive account@thi-js who helped me evaluate some of the participants.

The final winners, who will receive a 500 SP delegation (for two months) each (right after I've published this post) are ... drumroll

1. Hive account@amymya (Read her Post here)

   161.855 SP (and a big heart) are currently hers, and she's spreading the love!

   

   Do you see that? Absolutely no self-voting in the past 2 weeks!
   She's active in #walkwithme , #homesteadersonline , #healthy-home and #familyprotection . I've taken some time to talk with her on Discord and I'm convinced she'll keep caring for other minnows and will use the delegation for good.

2. Hive account@tfcoates (Read his post here)

   As of this moment, he has below 100 SP but is a man with a plan and the science to back it! If we want to keep Steemit as a social media platform going, we'll need more high-quality science too - not just pop science. Hive account@tfcoates is a medical student who's very invested in the community and I believe he will do good.

   He also uses most of his voting power on others:

   

3. Hive account@neander-squirrel who was nominated by Hive account@themarkymark !

   Did you ever feel the urge to immediately be notified if someone mentions your name? Follows you? Flags you? Hive account@neander-squirrel developed ginabot, a bot on the Discord app that gives you all the notifications you want. And all of that for free! In contrary to most other people who offer services like this, he even gives you the registration fee back immediately.
   For this, I think he deserves some support.

   Oh, and he also didn't self-vote at all in the past 14 days!

   

4. Last but not least, Hive account@janicehung (Her Post can be found here)

   At first, I wasn't sure about choosing an actress and model. Would people claim I only delegated to her for her looks? I mean, I'm a woman too, but you never know.

   But I don't delegate to her because I want some of the fame to rub off on me. No. I chose her because she shows some serious dedication, and not just as an International Wushu Champion (I know how much discipline martial arts require). She wants to promote Steemit and for someone with her reach, that should prove to be quite successful.

   She seems to be firmly set on helping the community grow, and I'll trust her with that.

As I said, I'll delegate the SP to these people right after publishing this post, and they'll get to keep it until Friday, March 23, 2018, which is 60 days according to wolframalpha and counts as "2 months" for me, mostly because February is so damn short.

During that time, I will monitor their behavior, to catch abuse of the delegation as soon as possible, although I'm sure these four won't do that.

Additionally, I'll be there for their questions, either on Discord or steemit.chat (Note to everyone else: No, I can't be your mentor. I get about 10 messages every day asking if I can be their mentor. I just don't have the time for that. My mentorship program is still going on and applications for it will open up again soon. So be patient and wait for that!)

For all the others who didn't win, I'll just say: Don't be sad! What you're doing for the community is great and I'm sorry that my resources are limited.

However

I urge every whale, every dolphin, everyone with some SP to spare to follow my example. For someone with roughly my amount of SP, 500 SP isn't as much as it's for a minnow with a lot less. I listed every participant at the end of this post and you can click through and see if you like someone.

Spread the love! Support a minnow!
