Greetings steemians! It's time once again for my favorite contest of the week-- the Minnow Support Contest. This is where we honor the most undervalued steemians each week. Last week we had a lot of wonderful entries and as usual it was hard to pick 4 winners. One of the winners this week was easy to pick though because he was nominated no less than 5 times! The hard part about that was to pick one of the nominators as a winner. In the end I picked one pretty much at random. Last week's winners were:
@bitcoinparadise and @bambam808 for: https://steemit.com/contest/@bambam808/gingerbred-productions-presents-s-g-t-got-a-talent-looking-for-the-right-place-to-share-it-nows-your-chance
@thesimplelife and @kristin.nova for: https://steemit.com/life/@kristin.nova/rising-to-the-occassion
@flamepower and @cryptonet for: https://steemit.com/life/@cryptonet/a-beggar-s-contribution-to-the-freedom-of-a-country-stupendous-and-highly-remarkable
@jeanpi1908 and @oendertuerk for: https://steemit.com/mystery/@oendertuerk/niocla-tesla-a-genius-and-his-mysterious-life
Congratulations to all of our winners! This week will work the same as every week. Find a minnow who you feel makes quality content and is undervalued. Post a link to one of their posts in the comments. Author must have less than 5000 steem power. 4 posts will be chosen and both the nominator and nominee will receive 25 whaleshares! Good luck and happy steeming!

lots of altcoin/bitmarket/crypto volunteer work on reddit. Just look is the most active mod in each hehe
I am nominating @arbitrarykitten once more. This story about how she helps rescue animals is very touching. I hate to see any animal experience hardship (humans too..) and this feel good story assured me there are really great people in the world. Me and my rescue cat "Turtle" thank her for doing this...just to be clear she didn't rescue my cat. I kind of made it sound like she did.

I'd like to nominate @himshweta
I'm writing this week's contest right now and I would recommend nominating her again but putting in a link to one of her posts because you would likely have won this week if you had done that. Her content is amazing.
I nominate @awarenessraiser she is doing super cool VLOGs on her blog with very good tips about many things! https://steemit.com/success/@awarenessraiser/vlog-10-why-you-need-to-have-a-hustler-s-mentality-to-succeed-in-life

Hi @jphenderson she has no bitshare or openledger you can send her whaleshares to me and I will upvote one of her post with the full 25 whaleshares. I told her to confirm it with you and I told her to write to you. I will later show you the transaction for the upvote on her post. Thank you very much and have a nice day.
@jphenderson Can you please send @danyelk the 25 whaleshares on my behalf and then he will upvote my post with it?
I will do that now.
nice!!!!
Congratulations to all the winners. I'm sure they were very deserving.
Did not win, hope so next time ;o

I want to nominate a very underappreciated and talented steemit artist @chrsart :

Can't we nominate ourselves ? Afterall, we are undervalued ? Nobody will nominate me.
Don't get disheartened. No body nominated me too!
Jokes apart, I'll read your posts and see if I can nominate you here or may be in the next contest. Following you now.
Cheers! 😊
Your work is about crypto currency. I write poetries on philosophies. Our work is different. I dont think you would like it because our theme categories are different. Still if anybody reads my work with open brains, they sure gonna like it. Thanks for giving it your precious time.
Woah... you are too quick to judge on my tastes and passing the verdict! I haven't even written more posts than there are fingers on my my hand but you discovered a lot about my work! Thank you! Anyway, it's your blog, your subject and your readers so it makes a perfect sense to me that you should get people who can value your content better.
Here I got the taste of your writing. And as you claim, you were really successful in changing my view-point through your writings. So I ain't considering to nominate you here. Hope you will find someone better soon. But I'd still love to read your philosophical writings if you permit.
All the best! Keep Steeming!!!
Wow you really got judged... He doesn't know you! Maybe a small Osho is in you :-)
Hey @art-universe, first decide who's in me, is it a Lao tzu or an Osho? 😜
And btw, it's not he but she here. Of course she doesn't know me and it was my first interaction with her here. But this world is weird. Some people do possess a sixth sense or perhaps even a crystal ball ...or God knows what, but may be she made the right move by declining my offer.
On a serious note, your name looks to be a better contender for this job since your name encompasses whole of art universe and may be a bit of philosophy too. So if you have some time and inclination, you must visit her blog. She's talented for sure and do possess some hidden diamonds there. I had a glimpse on few of her writings and didn't regret visiting her. She is working really hard there.
Oh yes she is undervalued. :-) for sure
And funny... First I wanted to write Laotsu.... :-) no joke. I love the tao te king :-)
Relax dear, I said I think so and saying what we think shouldn't be offended I believe, it can be discussed upon. You are free to counter back if my thoughts about you were incorrect. I went through your channel and found posts different then mine, and so I said that. I didn't say anything baseless. You are free to answer back to enlighten me, of course.
And obviously I want people to read those, that's why I write that stuff. Isn't it.
Also I never declined your offer. I said I didn't think that you would like it because until now, only philosophers or poets were commenting on my posts. Anyways, all the best to you too :)
No offense taken at all, in fact it must be you who might have felt offended! And no, you were NOT incorrect about me. That's why I passed this opportunity to someone else.
Our discussion here has unnecessarily got drawn-out. But it may have a net positive effect if it is successful in attracting someone's attention who could do what you exactly wanted to. Best of luck for that!
By the way, thanks for visiting my channel, इसी बहाने!😊 It's really difficult to fish out my own posts from all those resteems I do. Sorry for that! But will try to increase frequency of creating my own posts soon. May be someone like you can come looking in future too 😎
Thanks a ton for your wishes!

I know it sounds selfish and it's not the best thing to do, but I'd like to nominate myself for this one, is such a personal project I'm working on, so I think it might deserve a bit more views at least.
Thanks for making this happen, and congrats to the winners, I'm about to read their posts right now.
