The last 10 days have been very exciting for us here at SteemSports. Our current contest has received over 600 views and close to 200 comments thanks to the support of our amazing followers! We set out to give back to you all in celebration of our 2000th follower and we hoped you’d be excited, but we never could’ve imagined the success of this giveaway. We’re now at just over 2500 followers and on behalf of everyone here, thank you for your continued support, it means a lot to all of us!
With all that sentimental stuff out of the way, let’s jump into what you’ve all been waiting for; the results! The last 5 days have seen our finalists reach out to their supports for votes. We’ve seen comradery between contestants, and our contestants with a smaller number of followers have had new people view their content. We’re excited for you all, and you all should be proud of the amazing content you provided.
