C-Squared Contests - NEW RULES

Going forward @c-squared will be placing Steem Bounties on each weekly Contest Post as well as each daily Exponential! posting on the @c-cubed blog. The bounty payout to contest participants will replace previous contest structure.

PLEASE NOTE There is no longer a requirement to sign up for C-Squared contests in the C² Discord community.

5 Steem Bounty: C-Squared Weekly Contest

Each weekly contest post (this posting) on the @c-cubed blog will have a 5 Steem bounty placed on it through @steem-bounty. The @c-squared account will place the bounty.

How to claim the bounty

Bounty hunters (you the reader!) must leave a comment in reply to this post with a link to a post recently upvoted/resteemed by @c-squared (still in payout) and an explanation of why you liked this post.

The @c-squared account will upvote the best comment(s) as determined by C-Squared admins, determining who gets the bounty (if multiple comments are upvoted by @c-squared the bounty will be split).

Spam commenters and users who are obviously copying existing comments in hope of upvote and bounty will be flagged.

PLEASE NOTE To be eligible for bounty payout, three criteria must be met: the comment must include a valid URL of a post recently upvoted/resteemed by @c-squared (still in payout at the time the comment is left); the comment must include a non-spammy/non-generic explanation of why the commenter liked the linked post; and the commenter must have left a non-spammy comment in reply to the linked post as well.
