That's a total of 1800 Steem Power for the Winners!!
I absolutely LOVED the entries and
the general support!
the general support!
I was thrilled with the response both from the entrants and the community in general. In the end there were eight entries, each one not only giving me a glimpse of who they actually are as a person. They also portrayed some of their personal experiences and an idea of how they help the LGBT+ community both within and without Steemit.
Some of my criteria to choose the winners included:
- the depth and substance of the post they entered
- the impact the Steem Power would have for the minnow
- potential benefits the winner would provide to the community
- and the entrants time and activity here on Steemit
With as difficult as it was to choose winners, I decided to collect together an additional 800 Steem Power to add to the prize pool!!
Enough rambling...let's Announce some Winners!!

Quick Announcement: #LGBT room is now open in Steemit.Chat
Up until now, we didn't actually have a public #LGBT room in Steemit.Chat. But this has now been fixed. It will be meant as a place for anybody to hangout, chat and share their LGBT related posts. (All promotion posts will have to have at least one LGBT related tag.) This channel is being moderated, already being headed up by @Ancapbarbie and @Saphhic. So feel free to hop in to say hello and share some of your posts.
Click HERE to enter the #LGBT room in Steemit.Chat.
During this next week you'll also be seeing the announcement of an LGBT+ discord community as well. I'll be slowly organizing more as we keep going along. You can find a bit of what I've got planned HERE and I'll be making more detailed announcements over time.
Please Follow, Upvote and Resteem if you found this Helpful.

Oh wow! Thanks so much for spreading the love amongst all 8 of us! I think it's such a blessing to be a part of this community so early on in Steemit. I'm optimistic that there will be a really supportive and thriving community among us, just through this competition alone I've already started meeting some of the other candidates and definitely feel the camaraderie! #goteamgo

Hi Sykochika .. first of all, I would like to congratulate you for the wonderful initiative! It is heartening to see your efforts as well as the encouraging response from readers! I already see your channel and purpose thriving with this! All the very best from me!
Secondly, you mentioned about bandwidth above. Now me being a newb, I have no idea what that is? I have seen it on steemd, however, it would be good to know what it really means/does?
Would appreciate your inputs around this!
Take care, all the very best and God bless!

Congrats to the lucky winners of Steem. I just got into this and hope to make a little money to invest in some altcoins. I'm looking into TRX, Ripple, and Neo. Any thought of anyone else's portfolio of coins?
