Welcome to the weekly meetup just for you.
The purpose of this contest is to meet new people, have exposure for something you created this week, some wonderful conversations, and a chance to win SBD.
Sometimes really cool posts get lost in the flood of posts especially for those of us that are new and don’t have a large following or cannot afford advertising. I would like to give new users a chance to have some of their work viewed by a larger part of the steemit community and also a chance at some SBD both for entering and also commenting. Everyone says comment, comment, comment…
Payouts
- Best post by a redfish = 40% of SBD payout from this post
- Best comment = 25% of SBD payout from this post
- Redfish interact prize = 10% of SBD payout split up between all redfish that link and comment but don’t win.
To enter the contest:
- Post a link to 1 thing you created this week and a quick description about content… the description is not necessary but helps draw people in.
- Read a post by at least 2 other contestants and comment on at least one that you really liked or felt motivated to respond to.
- To be eligible to win best post you must be a redfish (less than 1000SP)
- Single photos and memes will qualify this week.
To win the contest:
- The best comment will be decided by myself.
- The best post will be awarded based on the number of votes a post receives.
Each comment is worth 1 vote for the post. Each upvote is worth ½ a vote for a post.
Here is an example
If we use this example: @danjo1984 would get 4 votes.
.5 from @jysui + .5 from myself for upvotes =1 vote
1 from @ailenepm + 1 from @jysui + 1 from myself for the comments = 3 votes
The fine print...
Contest closes a week from today, the sooner you post the more likely you are to get more votes.
An upvote is not required to join this contest but, as the prize is a % of the SBD payout it is encouraged that you upvote and resteem to increase the prize payout.
Payout will be within 24 hours of this posts expiration and will be announced in a winners post.
Please do not add bots that COMMENT to this post as it distracts from what we are doing.
I submit my introductory post for consideration.
awesome idea... I think this is going to be fun... I hope you come join us in #newbieresteemday because you are going to be a hit and get lots of power some day soon. And if you want to help others start from scratch we could use your wit and creativity!
Welcome to steemit (even though my guess is you are already connected to someone bigger than me) lol ... Have a great day and I got connected to you through @royaleagle who is one of our founding members!
Cheers and welcome aboard :)
Welcome to steemit, I hope you will find great success. Your idea sound interesting and funny.
Heres to you Confessor!
I submit my post about The Case for Sex Dolls. I've been seeing so many negative reactions to them that I wanted to offer a different perspective. Hope you like!
Reading this was an interesting roller coaster and I loved it. I hope people read all of it. It is a good message about people and acceptance. Who cares what people do in their own bedroom as long as it does not harm others. Thank you! :)
Very interesting.
Freedom! is a narrative tale that places you in the body of a beautiful and graceful butterfly, as you struggle to escape from a terrifying monster.
Wow! I really liked this a lot. Reminded me of my battle with anxiety. The battle from within is a very hard battle to win but once you realize all it takes is to not let fear win and to scream out FREEDOM youll set yourself free. Its still a battle I have from time to time but its a battle I win everytime! Thanks for sharing! :)
Thank you for the great feedback!
YAY! Be safe pretty butterfly! Thank you for that visionary tale. :)
I really enjoyed reading this tale.
It is captivating and very well written.
Spiders are terrifying abominations of nature.
Here is a link to last weeks if you need an idea; also it is still open for another 2 hours as well.
I would like to offer my Introduction post for this! This little fishy is late but not sorry. :)
Here's mine!
Steemit Monetary Policy: Why the SBD Peg is Broken and How to Fix It. But Do We Really Want It?
I wrote this to help people understand the SBD to USD peg, why it's not working and what options are available to us through Economics. Of course, this applies not just to the SBD to USD peg, but also to the many currencies around the world that are still on the peg (Chinese Yuan, Singapore Dollar for example).
I've tried to make it simple enough for most to understand so have a read if you feel like you're up for a challenge!

Serenity is the name of a long exposure black and white photo I took on a beach in France.
Beautiful picture, it looks mystical. You could have told me that it was at the top of a misty mountain and I may have believed it!
Thank you! :)
haha I should have tried that in the description 'taken on top of a misty montain'
nice shot it is ❤️
Thank you! 😁
I am still in the process of figuring out formatting comments but I would like to submit my introduction for this weeks contest.
https://steemit.com/introduction/@motinkergnome/introducing-the-motinkergnome
hey @motinkergnome, you should watch out for the "Dear Dawne" series that comes out on my blog every week. We have a pro, steemit mentor @goldendawne and she gives you tips on how to do exactly what you mentioned. Check her out and send her a message, she is always looking to help!
Welcome to steemit and if I can help you, please let me know.
Thanks for the tip.
Welcome to our weekly contest. Do you have any video footage of your drone work?
I have some early testing before I formed the LLC, It was forming the business that got me introuble with the FAA. I pulled the later videos to comply with the FAA order. Stupid FAA.
now it is cheaper and easier to just buy a DJI and be done with it. But back at the time, 3d Robotics was the premo source for controllers. The only problem is that you needed to figure out and get your hardware to work with them.
This was the first autonomous test. I was a bit nervous as I did not have my PID set properly on the controller and it wanted to drift untill the autoflight switch was flipped.
Here is another one with the gimbal mount installed. the 900 mhz video transmitter could not really keep up without glitching but the gimble worked well for stable video.
This is a link to a comment I made 6 days ago in response to a blog with the title, "5 facts About Me - (Expose Yourself Challenge") old-guy-photos has a wonderful outlook on life. His ability to laugh at himself, not take himself too seriously and make the most out of every situation is extremely energizing and uplifting. I responded in kind.

https://steemit.com/poetry/@jysui/short-poem-superficial
This is an original poem from me. There was a time when i was really down and felt like all the people i loved and cared about were fake and had different intentions (bad ones) for me, amd it inspired me to write this short poem
every person comes to that stage of life where we feel down , lonely and alone. But that’s life way of teaching us how to stand up when we fall, how to be strong when we are weak and when to know what is real and not. ❤️ keep the fight. someday soon you’ll be the best version of who you are with the ones you loved and the ones who fakedyou and help you to be what you are now.
Yes! That's exactly right! Thanks!

i like this, sculpture made from old car parts, really gives that dog some character, and the variety of colour, different shades of rust. steampunk is awesome.
I’m sure you’d love taking a walk through the streets of Oamaru @losthippie. Lots of stuff like this. Oamaru is an artist magnet

Here is my post: "Asked And Answered" - Best Newbie Question Of The Month (January 2018)
I am taking the best questions that I see from a newbie and answering to both help the newbie (and her friends), but also trying to help others that might not have know about about some of the answers.
Being on steemit, the key is not only interaction (which is very important), but it is also about knowledge. We learn everyday. So my goal with this idea is to take myself back in time when I was a newbie and give out answers like I did when I first arrived.
BTW, I hope many do something similar. It is a great way to connect with a new batch of steemers!
Asking questions and supplying the answer to them is an excellent way for others to learn what may appear to be basic facts on how to progress in Steemit. The fact is, as newbies we read so much that we can only absorb a certain amount at a time, therefore to have strategic tips supplied in your thoughtful and caring manner is very valuable indeed @davemmcoy Thanks once again for all the effort and dedication you put into giving people a helping hand. (I have saved this post to add to all my other collectible gems.)
thank you Trudee for taking the time to tell me your thoughts. I agree completely with you about only being able to retain so much info. Too many times people think just because they said something, that the other person heard and understood it. If we all continue to work together here and help each other, then it will help to reinforce those messages buried deep in our minds.
I always like to hear from you and thank you so much for your kind words!!!
Hi, this is my entry for the contest. I posted yesterday my experience so for what steemit. Here i have put in useful links, apps and how I have been doing at steem so far. https://steemit.com/norway/@everydaycoach/my-experience-so-far-on-steemit-after-50-days
