Steemitri The Mannequin: greeting and welcoming the Venezuelan community and announcing the winner of “Title & story 2” contest

Dear Steemians,
I must be honest… in my last contest I lost a little bit control of the situation. I would never have imagined that so many people would participate!

For the “Title & story 1” contest there were 4 participants and for the “Snowy contest” only 2, so this one has been a success!

This time the entries have been 35!

Here is the post: Steemitri The Mannequin Contest - Pick a title and write your own story 2

I therefore decided to gather some SBD here and there, and add them to the “total prize pool”, I am a generous mannequin afterall, and I would like to make everybody happy whenever I can.

The contest was supposed to be in English, but I accepted other languages, such as Italian, Spanish,... I am a multi-culti and cosmopolitan mannequin as well :-)

Ne approfitto quindi per salutare i miei amici dall’Italia (vedi anche questo post)...

Y un gran saludo y un enorme abrazo para todos mis amigos de Venezuela y de Latinoamerica!!!

I took a calculator, a few dictionaries and I poured myself a nice cup of joe, immersing myself into work for a couple of hours.

Here some statistics:

• 35 entries
• 4 in Italian
• 11 in English
• 20 in Spanish
• Total prize pool: 13.9 SBD (95 USD, Coinmarketcap - SBD, 21.01.2018)

There were many creative and funny stories and therefore it has been difficult to make a decision, so I asked for help to my hosts Lou & Dee.

And the winners are:

Story in Italian:
@heidi71 - “Parenti serpenti” - 2.5 SBD
Story in English:
@connecteconomy - “Let her go Steemitri” - 2.5 SBD
Story in Spanish:
@edurley - “Odisea sin fin” - 2.5 SBD

I was left a bit short of SBD, but I decided to donate 0.2 SBD to all participants:
@airmatti, @abh12345, @kalemandra, @gaboroa14, @maeugenia, @norkamoran, @sarahjireth, @neiraurdaneta, @dlina-v-metrah, @williamjose, @sciack, @jadams2k18, @andreinacepeda, @netcy, @calitoo, @fernandoportillo, @rnunez09, @tatty, @machiqui63, @karinanunez, @dayanaromer, @mariaudhr, @andriusangronis, @sangronisgregori, @jeander, @claudiagp, @wellwell, @miti, @giuatt07, @charlesx, @yohannagotopo, @dldb1604

I will send the SBD very soon.

I am a big fan of books, so it has been for me inspiring and a pleasure to read all your stories!
In the next weeks I will organize a new contest, stay tuned!

Sincere greetings,

Steemitri The Mannequin
