Good evening Hive account@trufflepig! This is definitely a first for me. Getting a nice reply from a bot!

"I upvoted your contribution because to my mind your post is at least 9 SBD worth and should receive 101 votes. It's now up to the lovely Steemit community to make this come true."

Yes, you did upvote my post Hive account@trufflepig and for that I am grateful. To learn more about how you reached your conclusion, I went and read through the link you provided.

"Steemit can be a tough place for minnows. Due to the sheer amount of new posts that are published by the minute, it is incredibly hard to stand out from the crowd."

No doubt about it! In reading more about your "mission," I have to say a lot of it was a little over my head. But, I did note this:

"I search for quality content that got less rewards than it deserves. I call these posts truffles, publish a daily top list, and upvote them.'

Far be it from me to argue with you Hive account@trufflepig! 😉 So ... How did you come up with this "opinion?"

"This week I got a training set of 74508 contributions."

Wow! That is some serious homework Hive account@trufflepig!! Impressive stuff ... Well, gotta go for now, but thanks for letting me know I ended up in "the truffle bag!"

Upvoted you in return (so, you "broke even") and I am going to start following your work Hive account@trufflepig (and your manager, Hive account@smcaterpillar), as it looks very interesting.

P.S. You may note in this post that I don't have a particularly high opinion of bots (nothing personal ... 😉), but from what I see of your work, definitely have to chalk one up for the "good guys!" 👍 👍
