Today’s featured contests
Easy SBI Contest
The ‘Easy SBI contest’ requires only a single comment (of any nature) to be in the draw. The winner is drawn at random the following day.
Paying it Forward
In the spirit of helping new Steemians, this contest focuses on curating great content and is run by @pifc. It runs weekly on Mondays and asks that you find two "High Quality Original Content Blog Posts" to recommend for curation. Four judges decide which recommendations were the best and multiple winners get SBI units. Follow @pifc to see the latest contest post and read it for full details.
And now for the contest list

Quite a few industrious Steemians run contests regularly. Here is a list of the ones we know about at the moment. All of these have been running for months so you can count on their posted schedule.
Be sure to check each account and look for the contest name as the links change each week. Also remember to read the full contest description as the rules and prize values sometimes change.
Thank you economy
Every week you can visit the Thank You Economy contest and tag someone who has helped you. When you do, both of you could win SBI units from the ever growing prize pool!
Punday Monday
From the creator:
What is Punday?
Punday is the best day. It's the day we post a topic upon which you are invited to pun in the comments for a chance at SBI shares. You get to read all the incredible puns, and you can try your hand at puns, and you can just bask in the warmth and love that punsters offer. I am your Puntender, and I serve hot puncakes with Mapun Syrpun.
Steemexplorer’s Daily
@steemexplorers is a project operated by @jonnyla08 and the “Monsters Madness Giveaways” team which aims to consistently help others find resources to improve their Steemit user experiences, network with other community members and achieving personal growth. We hope to be a central source of information and guidance for all Steemians. Steemexplorers has some exciting projects in the works. Presently while we work through these projects we conduct FREE daily giveaways of SBI shares among other things throughout the other members of our team. Please see the instructions in our daily giveaways for more information on how to participate.
Lyric Poetry Contest
With the contest using the prompt, the poet will show with his verbal expression illustrate a deep feeling, a reflection, a state of the spirit, as experiential and aesthetic manifestations.
Wednesday Walk

ZapFic Writing Contest
Like super short stories? Try writing one in 232 characters or fewer for your chance to win SBI in this contest run by @felt.buzz. Every Wednesday he posts a new prompt to use for your very short story. You can post your story wherever you want, just make sure to keep it under 232 characters.
@freewritehouse
The folks over at @freewritehouse run three contests each week. All of them are designed to encourage community engagement and highlight other's work. Besides the prizes from the @freewritehouse account, they are always interested in hearing from anyone who will sponsor a contest and so they can offer even bigger prizes.
A Favorite Freewrite You Read contest runs every Tuesday for just 24 hours. You need to read some freewrites written (you can read this post to see what they are), and then comment on the contest posts about which ones you liked best and why. If they choose your comment you win units of SBI.
Recommend your Favorite Freewrite Poem is a poetry version of the Favorite Freewrite contest and it runs every Friday. Make a comment about a freewrite poem you loved and you could win SBI units. But be quick! When Friday is over, so is the contest - until the next week that is.
The FreeWrite House We-Writes kick it off every Monday with a new prompt. Just complete the story with a five minute free write (or longer if you choose) and you could win 5 SBI shares.
@bananafish
Mizu No Oto is founded on the belief that every image has a haiku. It’s an @bananafish contest curated by @marcoriccardi, a real haijin (haiku poet) and it's a great occasion to learn this form of poetry. It runs twice monthly, once in English and once in Spanish.
Tell a Story to Me is a contest started by @calluna, who being potassium minded, brought it over to the BananaFish Realms. Tell a story following the prompt to win some cool prizes!
NOTE: Contest images used with permission from their owners.

Ok, I hope this doesn't catch on with other communities/tribes.
You should NOT limit which interface is allowed to be used in order to be rewarded.
Or - you should allow SteemPeak at least, since they have tribe and feed sorting features activated for all the tribes, not limiting at all and allowing us to completely customise our feeds and sort which tribes we'd like to see and when...
https://www.steemcoinpan.com/ is just another ugly steemit.com clone - just like many of the other tribe front-ends.
I would hate to lose the ability to be rewarded just because I refuse to use an ugly and feature limited front-end.
For me SteemPeak is #1 by a long shot and I love that I can be a part of multiple communities, all from the one UI that I know and love, just by using their tag and sorting my feed/creating lists and favourites. Really, the possibilities with SteemPeak are endless.
It should be about the community and proper use of tagging, NOT about the interface we use!!

More interfaces are likely to go this direction, so that they can control their own advertising revenue from the traffic. As long as they are using their advertising revenue to benefit their members, it would help the value of the tokens (and drive more traffic to their platform). If they are using their advertising revenue to enrich themselves, the move will likely destroy their communities.
Either way, we will stop using SCT tags from Oct 15 but we will continue with staked SCT as long as there is an active contingent of SCT users among SBI members.

Does running your own frontend take a lot of resources? Domain registration and perhaps a small cloud server for hosting the files, but are they also running their own database? They would just be mirroring/using a public node I imagine to pull and show the data from the blockchain that's tagged with their tribe/dApp, in most cases? Talking about a clone of the steemit condenser.. dApps like steem-bounty/steem-hunt, actifit etc are probably also running a database I imagine.. but generally, the tribes don't seem to be running anything 'special', right? Just wondering!

Most of the front-ends use steemit API instead of running their own nodes.
