Why Should We Pick You?Ahh, the proverbial question of questions lol. I can be very curious about many things taking place and want to know how others may also feel about. I can be reluctant in some ways to address it freely, due to my writing, not my concern for reactions. It's the proactive and reactive nature that drives us and I appreciate any abilities to enable that.

Hi @brandonfrye, first thanks again for starting @minnowfund to help growing creators on Steemit!
Second, not sure if there was a copy/paste issue, but it seems that candidate #1 and #5 have the same answer for "Why Should We Pick You?" Are they two accounts from the same person, a case of super coincidence, or something else :) ?

Hey @retrorewindpod, thanks so much for pointing that out! It was an error and we have corrected it. :)

Gosh just thank you for picking me for the final vote!!! Mucho gratitude!!! Aloha!!!

@thegiftofself I wish you all the best. Followed. It was a fun exercise to fill out the application.

When is the vote due? I would like to take time and look through the options but am busy most of the day today. Thanks!

Hey @newageinv, thanks for pointing this out. We've added this to the post now... but you will have until Thursday night 11:59 PM EST to cast your vote. Thanks so much for your support!

Hard to believe but I do not have a Google account that I can use to vote. I hope you get enough votes for a decision. I will think about creating one for the next phase. I guess a good suggestion for Steemit will be to implement a polling tool!

Do you think it can really have an impact?

@brandonfrye honored to be considered and what you are doing for the Community is much appreciated. I wish all the candidates good luck and much success long term on the Steemit platform.

Best of luck to you as well!

This is cool. I didn't know about this until now or I would have sent in an application

I'm for @thegiftofself

Why? I'm not sure. Maybe because she's the only female in the mix

Now following

Blessings

Hi @iamthegray, I'm glad that you found us!! Our applications will reopen this Friday so be sure to check back then. Happy Steeming!
