100 STEEM + Liquid Rewards From This Post To Whomever Can Come Up With The Best Name

in bounty •  8 years ago 


I'm sure most of you know by now that I and a few others are working to develop a new curation guild which will be composed of strictly volunteers who feel passionately about Steemit. We aim to ensure that the very best content receives the very best of rewards.

Initially, we had considered naming this new curation guild, SteemTrust.

I liked that it had a double meaning. Being trust, as in faith in one's integrity, and the legal term trust, where trustees hold onto someone(s) property or money(in this case voting power) for the benefit of all.

However, considering we live in a world where things such as the Patriot Act or the UN Peacekeepers do the exact opposite of what their titles imply, we thought that SteemTrust may sound a bit scammy.

We are not a scam. We don't intent to be a scam. Our intentions are pure and we would like the name of the guild to express that.

Given that this is about the community, we thought; Why not let the community decide on the name?

I am offering a 100 STEEM bounty, as well as the liquid rewards from this post, to whomever is able to come up with the best name for our new curation guild.

Things to keep in mind:

  • It needn't contain the word guild. There are plenty other words to the same effect, such as cooperative or syndicate which I have previously considered. We even briefly entertained naming it simply, "up". So, get creative. Anything goes.

  • We want it to represent our founding principles. That means the volunteer aspect; doing it for free because you want to see Steemit succeed. Not for personal gain or privilege. That also means rewarding only the very best of content, regardless of the type of content or the level of the author. Finally, we represent an end to delegated voting power being used to flag posts or comments. There will never be a single downvote from this guild.

Please keep these things in mind whilst making your proposals.

Make as many entries as you like, but try and keep them all in the same comment so as not to make the comments section overpopulated.

To be eligible for the 100 STEEM and the rewards from this post, you must resteem the post to give everyone a chance to get involved. We want a huge amount of participation so that we will find the best possible name for the guild/trail/cooperative etc.


48 hours from now is when the competition will end, and we will choose the name we think is best. That person will be rewarded, and then immediately after, a second bounty will be made available for a logo design contest using the newly discovered name.


If you need more information before you're able to think of a good name, you can find out more about our intentions here.

Steem Super Slam!!!

You pretty much have to, the graphic has already been made :D

Best there is... past, present and future! Ohhhhh yeahhhh!

Ohhh yeah! Dig it!

Haha awesome!!!

So nearly there: Steemgold is the obvious choice: if a little too serious at the beginning, it could be lightened up with subheadings in the short-term, but then could switch back to mode:: solemn when the world has been conquered, the moon reached, universal adoption all but realised.

Steemgold

TheFoundation
Avocado
MoonLanding
Golden
Chestnuts

Oh that's very good! Unless people worked poo into the equation? Hmm, never underestimate the masses! Hehe!

I would have to go with the very first instinct that popped up when I read the intention of this guild:

REWARDIANS

It plays on the idea of rewards while keeping an eye on the guardianship of the guild toward the highest quality post rising the value of our platform.

All for one and one for all! Namaste :)

  • as a derivative of the word pristine and all it implies....for all steem and steemians.

ElCure - elevate by curation
SteemSurge
QualiSteem
SteemStar

@benjojo, like it my friend.

Pinnacle - It will serve as a reminder that the guild will only upvote the very best posts.

My favourite so far. But, it won't just be my choice and there is bound to be a lot more to come. If that was your first go, I'd like to see more from you.

Got a little inspiration from the image on top right away:
Community Chest
I've only known the term from Monopoly game, but think it would suit something like this

Interesting one. Thanks for participating. Feel free to come back and edit your comment to add more if you think of some.

The Reward Pool Drainers.

Care to elaborate?

Did you even read the proposal? My intent is to put an end to reward pool draining, or at least the bad kind. I think it is right for a sizeable amount of the rewards pool to go to the best content on here. If that amounts to draining the rewards pool, then so be it, as long as the source of the drain is the sub par content that keeps making 200+ dollars.

Did you even read the proposal?

No, because I was joking, in the hopes of the joke receiving upvotes and making me 100 STEEM. The plan obviously failed.

But no, I didn't read.

Lol. I respect your honesty.

How about the "steem first aid kit" for hurting post to aid them kinda.
Or first up aid kit
If only one is allowed just the first one us fine/fun.

SteemTentacle (tentacle: trailing tentacles of vapor). SteemExpress (plays into both the up voting and powering the platform and users) CoAgent(play on the word cogent and agent) KeenTeam(powerful group) SteemCharge (charge a group, also an action of moving forward rapidly) Polysyndenton (google it but it means bound together and occurs in rapid succession and could be excluded but it is artistic and if value if used correctly and wisely).

I'm no good at this.

Too historic: The Worshipful Company of Steemit Volunteers
Too technical: External Combustion
Far too technical, but funny: The Rankine Cyclists
Too bad a pun: The Guilders
Too palindromic: Steem Meets

Oh, by the way, your little pyramid thing?

To me, a four sided pyramid represents the four forces that manipulate individual humans.

Political control, religious control, societal control, and economic control.

These concepts are as broad as they sound.

Given that I've seen plenty of awful name picks (as in Curie, curating anything but sciences; or robin hood, benefiting the already visible). I'd like to give a meaning to you free policies about topics with "kaleidoscope project" where every single color and shape can be seen in one glance.

I just resteemed this. Sorry I was so late. Did you like any of the names?

Haven't got a chance to review them all closely yet. But, two that jumped out at me were WeSteem and The Watchers. What do you think?

I'll have a closer look shortly.

not doing anything for me.....ha.

How about Super Slam? And we use Disco themed avatars?

what does this mean?

It is an eye roll. It means;

"This is surely a joke. But, then again.. This is StellaBelle.. Maybe it isn't."

You didn't get that? I thought you knew me...

btw, I read your life story. Holy crap. It was really good.

Well, I'm still only up to age 15 so there is a lot more of that series to come. But thanks a lot. For some reason I have been getting tons of compliments on those posts, and next to none at all for my fiction pieces. Lol.

There's probably something to be learned from that..
