Part of why I want to power up the @pifc account (that is it needs upvotes!) is so down the road we can start adopting the newbies who are featured and also the curators and get people up to preset SP amounts.
Goal is to actually create a few accounts for this effort. Those who submit entries will get adopted based on the quality of those they featured as that shows the level of effort put into the contest. They will get upvotes on every post for one week until the following entry. This is assuming they use all earnings to power up.
What we really need are a few delegations from some whales or steemit inc to make this effort happen in a big way. But for right now we will keep self funding with the goal of reaching a point where we are able to achieve the goals.
Might be time for a roadmap type post so people can see the bigger picture.
That is a great benefit except for those who do not blog often ...
Can only do so much, can't write their posts for them. To earn on steemit you really do need to be blogging. If not the earning potential goes way down.
Even if they blog 1 or 2 times during the week it will be an extra vote they wouldn't have gotten otherwise. This will be down the road and nothing is finalized so once we get closer to being able to release this we will have some open discussions to allow people to give ideas.
