I am offering: a Bonus for Entering "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 4 - Win SBI & Steem-Bounty" as Nominee in Current or Previous Entry (CLOSED) - I have transferred 0.6 SBD to each of the 5 on the list. See the same for Week 5 starting tomorrow.
I am offering a Bonus ("the bonus"), a prize in addition to the prizes for the contest, for entering "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 4 - Win SBI & Steem-Bounty".
Please see details below and on "the contest":
"the contest":
Purpose
The purpose of this bonus is to encourage all nominated or featured in the current contest, "the contest", or a previous pay it forward contest by @thedarkhorse ("previous contest") to enter in "the contest" and nominate or feature someone else in return.
Rules for the bonus (All rules are subject to revision by the judges of "the contest" and through the duration of "the contest" set by them)
Declaration for bonus consideration / evaluation ("declaration"):
| The Judges' requirements for declaration governs |
|---|
| To quality you must mention in your comment below that you are part of this Bonus. You must mention who's post you previously were featured in and that it's your first entry into the contest. |
| The requirement for "declaration" below is superseded by the judges' rules above and any future revisions by the judges. |
- All eligible entries must include a declaration such as:
"I am submitting this entry as a current / previous (choose one that applies) nominee / 'featured steemian' (choose one) and for the bonus: Bonus for Entering "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 4 - Win SBI & Steem-Bounty"
Note: The wording above is a suggestion only, but, please make the declaration clear. The judges may also suggest the wording they preferred at their discretion. It is their decision in the end.
The "declaration" can be at the top or bottom of the entry and optionally on the comment so that it is not missed or overlooked.
| The requirement for "declaration" above is superseded by the judges' rules above and any future revisions by the judges. |
|---|
eligibility:
- any and all nominated or featured in "the contest", or a "previous contest"
Verification of eligibility is the responsibility of the contestant and not a burden on the judges.
However, anyone can help verify the eligibility. It is recommended that evidence of eligibility, the entry that the steemian was featured or nominated, be clearly stated with the "declaration" of the entry.
Note:
On "the contest" it stated "Anyone who enters the contest for the 1st time and previously was featured in an entry". I would suggest that the eligibility rules here be considered by the judges at their sole discretion to allow more entries to be eligible.
**Additional eligibility (Amended):**
- An entry is eligible for the bonus even though not featured in an entry to the Pay It Forward contest IF:
1. Age is under 30 days or (edited April 30)
2. reputation score is under 45
But, again, judges decisions are FINAL.
Bonus Prize:
- Amount / Value:
3 SBD or equivalent. The judges of "the contest" will decide, at their discretion, if and how to convert the 3 SBD prize.
- Bonus Distribution:
How and How much to distribute is at the sole discretion of the judges of "the contest"
| Entry '#B-' (for bonus) | nominee eligible | nominated by | nominated on | the current entry |

This is a wonderful initiative on your part! Thanks for being such a huge supporter of the #payitforward contest. I agree that it is one of the best initiatives that I have found on Steemit and I feel pretty knowing that I was friends with @thedarkhorse when he was "just a guy" like me. ;) Looking forward to another great week of entries. :)

I hope that I am understanding this right. People I nominated can enter this additional contest if they also write a curation for the original contest and then drop the link here as well?

There is only one contest, the Pay It Forward contest:
"the contest":
https://steemit.com/payitforward/@thedarkhorse/pay-it-forward-curation-contest-week-4-win-sbi-and-steem-bounty
"The bonus" - what I offered - is for entering "the contest" If eligible for "the bonus" based on the rules detailed here.
Stating on the comment when declaring an entry to "the contest" are rules of "the contest" - I do not require any comments / declarations here.
My rules for eligibility are simple and are only "in the spirit" or "principle":
To further encourage any newbie who entered "the contest" for the first time, I amended the eligibility rules:

Okay. Got it. You are running a query to find who did it. Thank you.

No, I did not and it is up to the nominee to identify his / her eligibility and declare his / her intentions.
One more note: there is no guarantee that this will be repeated in future "Pay It Forward" contests and if so, eligibility rules might change.

Since this is the first and only time that this bonus is offered, it is not specified in the rules and eligibility, but it is the spirit of the bonus to help steemians to pay it forward and future bonus offers will limit participants to those who have not declared the intention to be judged for the same.
Potentially, I will be able to sponsor and offer this for a total of 4 times (3 SBD x 4).

I found you, @sherbanu (44), on @elsiekjay's entry for week 3
and, you are eligible for the bonus.
However, you need to comment the same on "the contest". <<< This is just FYI only as it has been done already.

I am thinking about a "multi-level tree planting" bonus for those who have encouraged their nominee(s) and the nominee(s) of nominee(s) to "Pay It Forward" and growing deeper levels and perhaps wider levels of trees.
Perhaps a "hat trick bonus" for next week?
