Steemit Open Mic Original Song Bonus For Week 50

Thanks to Hive account@pfunk who has sponsored Steemit Open Mic since it's inception we can award musicians who submit original music.

In addition to the 200 Steem he donates each week, Hive account@pfunk also kicks in another 120 Steem to reward people who submit original songs.

The 120 Steem is divided each week between all those who entered original music.

Since Steemit Open Mic is growing so much it is my task to transfer the funds. Here's a screen shot from week 50 of who got a Steem bonus.

NOTE: Some of these "songs" are not really complete songs but works in progress. I decided to pay them out this time but I can see that some people are really just jamming and calling it a song without really writing a song.

Anytime there is a bonus or reward involved there will be those who try to game the game

All this does is dilute the bonus split between those who really took the time to write a good song.

Going forward we will look for real original songs, not just some chords you slapped together and called it a song.

To those of you really writing original songs for Steemit Open Mic, thank you.
