Our first Deadpost Contest went great, we had a bunch of entries and discussion and we hope to have even more this time! There are a few changes to the rules so check below.
and
won! Check out their posts here (I will merge the next Deadpost contest and the winners announcement next time)
Also want to mention a very kind act by , he returned his prize to me so I didn't have to suffer the loss myself and so I wouldn't lower the prize pool too much :-D Thanks Ken! Let's try to raise the payout so I don't come in at a loss and everyone can keep their prizes!
What is the Deadpost Intitiative?
The Deadpost Initiative is an attempt to give love to some posts that were overlookeed during their short 7 day life span, a chance to bring your old posts back to life and maybe make some friends in the process. The goal is not only to share some love with SBD but also to generate discussion.
Share your best Deadpost in the comments!
The best posts will be rewarded with half of the payout from this post (or a minimum of $15 SBD, split between winners) and will be featured in a future post.
Rules
- Please only submit 1 post.
- Posts must have a payout of less than $5.
- Posts must be at least one month old.
- I recommend you don't enter the same post twice in the same month if you didn't win the first time.
-Vote for 1-3 post by others. Please share WHY you liked their posts. If you don't vote for someone else's post by commenting you will not be eligible to win. - Winners will be chosen based on how original, creative, informative and well written their posts are, as well as how well received they are in the comments.
- There will be a slight bias towards smaller accounts but large accounts are welcome to join and compete or just for fun and to share their old work.
- There may also be prizes for stellar comments and engagement.
- There will be 2 or more winners depending on how big the payout for this post is and depending on how many quality posts are entered into the contest.
proposed in his recent post that we make comments worth as much as posts in order to encourage discussion. I'd like to encourage something similar here, upvote submissions generously as if you are voting for the posts themselves, this will help even those who don't take the prize to earn some payout
The prize pool will be half of the post payout or at least $15 SBD
This is not merely a contest, this is an opportunity to have your material read and an opportunity for us to really discuss each other's posts.
Deadline
Please enter your posts before October 5th!
The winner will be announced on that day.
And please resteem to help raise the payout so we can increase the prize pool!
