Happy New Month!

Phew! Made it through the Halloween horrors of last month! I don’t know why I put myself through these scary movies as I scream an awful lot when I watch them but at least it’s safe now to come up from behind the sofa! Maybe I should reward my traumas with something… hmm... did I mention ice cream just then? Well, that’s a superb idea if ever I’ve had one!

Let me see what I’ve got in the freezer here to help soothe my beating dot! I’m always keeping my Qreamery well stocked with plenty of choices! Perhaps I’ll grab some peQan, or maybe HoneyQomb, mmm Mint ChoQolate Chip is also looking appealing, what about RoQy Road… AH! So many choices of this delicious frozen treat, I can’t decide!

I know what I’ll do, I’ll ask those awesome people of HIVE what their favorites are and then I’ll gorge accordingly!

The Topic For This Round Is…Favorite Ice Cream Flavors

How To Enter This Comforting Contest

1 - Create a blog post with your top 3 nominations along with your reasoning behind them. Entry posts must have:

• A minimum of 250 words total and
• The #yourtop3 tag MUST be in the first 5 tags used
• The deadline for submitting entries is the 9th
  
  

2 - Put a link to your blog in the comments section of this blog.

3 - Set your post payout to 50/50. You keep the HP and then transfer the HIVE and/or HBD (whichever is paid out at the time) to Hive account@yourtop3 with a link to your blog post entry in the transfer memo. This is the minimum entry fee, but you can add as much as you like to it! The more you add, the more you can win.There is no maximum entry fee.

You must send your entry fee in by the 19th of the month, otherwise you won’t qualify for the final standings for the month and won’t get credit for the entry for the league standings either and that would make me very sad - don’t make me sad...

Not sure how to find your post payout? Look in your Hive Wallet under Author Rewards to find the exact payout for your post. In the example below you would send the 0.011 HBD and 6.441 HIVE over to the Hive account@yourtop3 account as your entry fee. I’ll take it from there and convert all of the prize pool to HBD for easy prize distribution at the end of the month!

The deadline for submitting your entry is the 9th
The deadline for sending entry fees is the 19th

Creating Your Entry Post

You are welcome to create your own post but for your convenience I have created two different templates. The first one; a more complex version, contains some markdown/html coding creating a nice table for you to edit. The second template; for those of you not familiar with markdown/html coding, is a simpler version. In both templates, I’ve highlighted in red text where you need to edit.

• The table version can be found here

• The basic version can be found here

How detailed you want to go is up to you but I know you can do better than “because I like it” 😉

I have allowed our Panel members to create their own post with their own suggestions but these will NOT be entered into the contest - I forbid it! Instead the Panel’s post payouts will be used to add to the prize pool for bigger prizes.

What Happens Next?

I will first review all submissions for eligibility.

Then all submissions will be put into a public dpoll.

Once the dpoll is complete, I’ll review the results and combine them with my patented scoring system before dishing out the prizes to the top 3!

Any Questions? Join My Discord Server!

I have my very own Discord server where you can ask me any questions about the contest and engage with your fellow contestants! Bragging about previous victories accepted 😉 Join the fun here where there’s even more chances to win with Top 3!

Good Luck!

All that leaves me to say is - GOOD LUCK and I look forward to reading your entries!
