Why you should participate:
This contest is in support of @davemccoy's new initiative #play4anewbie:
https://steemit.com/play4anewbie/@davemccoy/play-4-a-newbie-challenge-day-2-scoreboard-and-games-to-play
We are like one big family on Steemit, so I am on a mission to find out about people on Steemit that are connected to each other in different ways. To do this I have revived the time-honored tradition of a bounty contest, where any Steemians can claim a bounty for couples that they know on Steemit.
Conditions of the bounty:
- The bounty will be active 7 days from when this is first posted, with additional bounties to be paid out after the expiry of the bounty at my discretion.
- Bounties will continued to be paid out until I run out of SBD in my account or the expiry date (whichever happens first).
- A bounty of 0.05 BSD will be paid out for each valid claim along with sufficient evidence (provided in the comments section of this post).
- There is no limit to the amount of bounty each user can claim. However, it must not be a couple that is already on my existing list of couples on Steemit:
https://steemit.com/makesteemitgreat-again/@fibrefox/grow-the-community-and-get-to-know-the-people-the-steemit-community-list-couples
I would like to acknowledge all the wonderful people in @greetersguild, @newbieresteemday and @newbiegames that are working hard to support all the newcomers and making this community a much better place for everyone. We aim to learn and grow together to help make Steemit the best social media platform for the new digital/cryptocurrency economy!
Yes we are one of the couples 😉
Here are more:
**@theferalone & @kokibyivana
Whew! That’s all for now 😊💜

Hahah they’re just my friends here lol. There are a few more too, but I’m not familiar with one of the partners as much and I didn’t want to search the names out. You’re welcome, cool bounty contest 🦄🎉

Thanks, I ran a few bounty contests when I had about 50 followers and not surprisingly it didn't go so well. Now with a few more followers I am hoping to do some more bounty contests since there is a fair bit of interest :)

Happy to see your bounty contest starting up again! You gave me my first $0.20 bounty win on here and that was incredibly HUGE for a newbie. I know you're just starting out with this account but the value doesn't matter, it is the heart and intention that is meaninful. :)

I have been waiting for an opportunity to get the bounty contest going again, and if you hang around @davemccoy long enough you know that there are plenty of opportunities to engage with the community and make a difference :) Hopefully I can get this account moving along and start giving out some better prizes soon!

I've hung around @davemccoy since the start of my steemit journey and definitely know he has many ideas juggling around in that magnificent mind of his. ;)
Plenty of opportunities for sure, but engaging is tiring work. I plan on taking some time offline to enjoy the fresh spring air but can't wait to see how everything progresses. Of course I will still pitch in when I can, but not all of us can be the energizer bunny like our dear friend Dave.
I hope you will grow this account too!

I only know one couple on steemit, I am sure there are a lot more, @michelle.gent and @s0u1(Trev). If you like good stories then visit michelle's pae and find her story "Ash and the Favour Man" that was a great read. Now if you are more into things that have four wheels and look like a piece of art work, then you Have to see some of the classics that Trev has found to feature on his page.

Well, it might be a bit awkward if it turns out not to be the case :D I had to check all the comments to make sure that there is a solid reference somewhere to one person being the other person's partner.
