This is still the best thing that I have seen happen on Steemit in my 11 months here
This comment really brightened my day and outlook a bit. :) Glad to hear you've appreciated the IFC, I have as well! Thanks for sharing that with me. I've heard quite a few others say similar, even yourself in the past if I remember correctly.. But it was a really good reminder either way and to reflect on that comment.. Just that one comment right there.. Makes it all worth it to me.
That even one person can say something like that.. Is very humbling and important to me.
I tend to agree with your other points as well. I think there are some good reasons for such, and it shouldn't be a reflection of or something that distorts everything else that has been so incredibly positive.
And at this rate it looks like you will probably get the prize as everyone is voting for you to get it, but.. Perhaps those of us who were working on entries can battle for the second and third place prizes. Unless of course we get numerous more people in here voting for an extension.. But.. I sort of doubt we'll get enough votes to make the difference.
In regards to steemfest.. I wish! I can't afford to go and I don't know if anyone in the IFC is going.. That would be awesome though! I wish! Maybe next year, or eventually if we start making enough money, I think perhaps if we get enough attention.. Some day, we could even have IFC meetups of our own! We've talked about that before a few times earlier in the season. But.. No.. Not yet. Don't have the funds myself, and.. I don't think anyone in the IFC is going but maybe I should make a post sometime to ask.
Interesting thoughts! Thanks again for sharing, you helped remind me of some important things. <3
I don't remember where it was/is but I would be happy to support someone in the IFC who lives the closest to the event and is willing to go! I think that should be the ultimate prize of IFC season 2, to be able to go to Steemfest and tell our story :)
