Follow the links in the article! Learn what it is and then write an article. This could be a good educational experience :)

I am definetly gonna try. I have so many ideas. For example one of the subjects I was thinking about is a simple question " what do you prefer: to have a decent life but to be healty or to be rich but you know you don't have much longer to live? I have a friend that he may have another 4 months to live but he is rich. I asked him te same question. Is gonna be very interesting.

Saddened by the fact that I live in USA and cannot participate in the ICO (USA needs to get it together!) I humbly submit this in support of UTRUST and as my entry here.
UTRUST - The Future Of Digital Transactions

good project.. i like it.

I have to read the whitepaper and research the team first.

Sounds good! Still about 19 hours to go.

I forgot as you can probably tell.

Haha, fair enough.

Advertisement for UTRUST hah. I will look into it. If I find it truthful and promising, I will put my submission. Since, it is posted by original works, I assume they are a reputable and legitimate company.

Would have loved to enter the contest but am not sure if Utrust works in Nigeria West Africa where i am.....so i would be making stuffs up and i won't like that...

UTRUST is in ICO right now, read the information about it and write based on that!

Oh, thanks mate...was using my Mobile phone, just doing power reading....will sure try it out

Oh, no! Such a detailed article too!

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

I think there was something "fishy" with this whole thing from the start. I spotted the "contest" in the post promotion section of Chat - it had been posted there @ 8:17 Pm Friday night, I submitted mine at 7:58 Pm Sunday. Granted I didn't look at the time of the actual post announcing the contest, and admittedly would be disqualified for the time, but that is not the part that really smells. While reading the other entries, I started to look at the actual times they submitted their's and still wonder how a few of them could have read the announcement, researched the subject, and wrote the kind of detailed reviews I see, within the actual times they were posted, without some fore-knowledge - some where posted within hours of the announcement, and the winner was posted the following day - within hours. Maybe its just me - but there's no way I could have written that detailed synopsis "in the Steemit Editor/markdown", within the time frame that I see... Not to mention - not even an acknowledgement of the submittal, you know something like Sorry you missed it, maybe next time, look at a clock asshole... Anything would have been better that what I got... Thanks for letting me vent - as if you had a choice... :) :) :)
*** I have to make an edit to this - I just noticed they sent me an invite (through my wallet) to participate in a second writing contest. I stand corrected, at least to my "acknowledgement" gripe...

Hello @drdave.

I am sincerely sorry. All the comments are double checked at the end of the contest, and submitted. Since you had submitted after the closing time, I had not noticed it to be here.

Otherwise I would have commented on it earlier!

I understand and appreciate the invite to participate in your next competition.
... and thank you for the "goat", it is also much appreciated.

I tag you a lot of time but never have anything :'( is it the end?

I will take a look.

An article must have at least 30 words to be tested for originality.

For that one, reply to the post with "@originalworks" or !originalworks.

it's done
