Truly an Amazing Night!
Let's call it a success!
We just had our meetup today! We had more than 30 people. Steemians and upcoming Steemians alike. A great mix of unique individuals joined us in this event.
I present you this preview post of the event while we're waiting for the photos from our official photographer @wilbejel. Thanks for @luvabi for organizing the event, @grazz for assisting us in everything, @sasha.shade for choosing an awesome venue, and a lot more.
Here's the first selfie. I actually came with my wife @haneun to the event.
There were shirts by me and @haleyaerith that were worn in the event and we also set up pre-sales as well. (Just discord us or comment here if you wish to order one)
@officialfuzzy actually gave beyondbits for this event, a total of 200 beyondbits for the raffle and more giveaways were given (early birds got 5 beyondbits each too). Here you see @luvabi with @craftech, awarding him 3rd prize of 50 beyondbits. Another winner for 2nd prize was chosen, lucky, cause it's me - got 50 beyondbits. @monkeypattycakes won 1st prize with 100 beyondbits!
We had speakers! A lot!
@sasha.shade talked about the Steemit website, welcome remarks, and making posts that are "Koala Tea". As well as nee things going on @teamphilippines within PALnet.
I was a speaker too: I talked about contests and steemgigs, and how to earn in general in steemit. I wasn't ready and had stage fright so I was a bit speaking in circles. Lol.
@jeanellybee spoke about converting your Steem/SBD to PHP and other stuff about cryptos and exchanges.
@luvabi had talks about using the website too and using whaleshares and beyondbits (pretty important since we're giving those away in this event).
@cloh76 who you see in the photo talked about witnesses mainly and was very welcoming when being asked question.
@sasha.shade, @cloh76, & @surpassinggoogle had exchanges of talks that were very good source of information for all attendees.
Here are more selfies:
Me with @cloh76.
Me with @tjpezlo.
Me with @tjpezlo, @luvabi, & @grazz.
Me with @surpassinggoogle. (Not a selfie. Not too tall @deveerei hahaha.)
It's amazing, meeting these people that are eay taller than you, I thought it's a basketball meetup. Right? @decsterity @chinito? Even @craftech is taller than me and he's 16.
More photos once we get it from our photographers!
Looking forward to see what others have posted. All those group photos. There were live broadcasts by @luvabi and @cloh76 too, which you may rewatch, just look up their blogs here.
I pray we host more events like this to continuously grow the Steemit community in the Philippines. We spent good 3 hours on this event and it was all worth it!
Congratulations to all who attended the event, for all the winners, and for everyone who met their friends online, and found new friends as well.
