Comments regarding "Pay It Forward Curation Contest"

in payitforward •  7 years ago  (edited)

I have supported the "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Win SBI & Steem-Bounty" held by @thedarkhorse (56) in #payitforward

Lists for "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - - Win SBI & Steem-Bounty"

Week 1 , Week 2 , Week 3 , Week 4 , Week 5

I have also offered bonus to the same:

There has been some confusion about these and this post is to clarify them - please comment below for me to answer them.

Definition of terms:

"the contest" - "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Win SBI & Steem-Bounty": (Week 1 , Week 2 , Week 3 , Week 4 , Week 5 )

"first time entry bonus" - a bonus offered here: Bonus for Entering "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 5

"hat trick" reward - a reward for "3 in a row" - see details here: TIC-TAC-TOE or Hat-Trick Reward for "Pay It Forward" Contestants

1 - "the contest" is held by @thedarkhorse - I am just another contestant submitted entries under the same rules for all.

2 - "first time entry bonus" is offered by me, voluntarily and not a part of "the contest" except that I voluntarily give "the final decision" to @thedarkhorse regarding who and how to distribute the bonus (closed and discontinued).

3 - "hat trick" reward is also offered by me and the rules states how and where to claim the same. As opposed to "first time entry bonus", the decision is all mine and my rules only. (no time limit and two prizes remain unclaimed)

I have not received much support for my bonuses and rewards to support "the contest" and will not be able to continue (until further notice) ...

Is it, whatever "it" might be, "fair?"

Please see my old post on "If you want to change the world ...", but:

Life is not fair. So, get over it! (with compassion and respect) 🌀 🌊 🌋 🌄 🌈


As I have said in various places - I am here to:

  • encourage
  • inspire
  • help
  • collaborate

and my areas of interests are:

  • health
  • wealth
  • technology
  • leadership

And, upvote is not required nor encouraged

Note to those with low SP (less than 50 SP) - Please Do NOT upvote. I would rather see meaningful comments than any upvotes.

Regarding upvoting with low SP, see: Your 2 Cent Vote is Worthless, The Real Deal on Dust Votes - @thedarkhorse

**For most newbies with low SP, 120 SP or less, your upvote does not pay IF it is the only upvote.

And upvoting

  • depletes your SP by 2% for each vote (same as resteeming a post)
  • regeneration of SP is at 20% per day

So, you get to vote 20% or 10 upvotes for low SP votes each day.

All the best! 🌀 🌊 🌋 🌄 🌈

thanks for the payment for my bonus. think my votes have been more then what I earned, but sorry you haven't gotten more support.

@bjgeese - you have been my greatest supporter and I know it. I'll support you in what you do as my SP allows.

Thanks for the support on the contest. You have been doing great.

@thedarkhorse - Thank you for your encouragement.
I am taking a breather and chill and to let my SP and SBD take a rest.

If you have time, can you please answer a question for me? Or anybody else who may be reading through the comments and knows the right answer. So I have seen in a couple of places the low SP below 120 single vote not counting. I currently have 100 SP of my own, and am delegated 150 SP. So my question is, do I fall into this group because of my 100 SP, or am I okay because of the 150 on top of that that has been delegated? I appreciate anybody who can take the time to answer this question. And I hope that everybody here has a wonderful day.

@freedomshift I am sorry to hear that you will be unable to offer your continued support due to lack of support on your behalf. This makes me feel (because I have been here) that there's a good chance that you gave out more than you received. I play games at my place to help the new guys, sometimes they pay out well sometimes I don't. So I use my proceeds from my other posts during the week to raise the reward amounts. I'm really not able to give out much ever. The most that I've ever been able to reward everybody what's $0.10. but I especially cater to the very new, and to them that is more than quite a few of them have made on any single post they've ever put out. And judging from what they tell me it is really helping them. Plus I know at least a couple of them, it is almost the sole reason that they continue to use steemit. I also know, because I watch what they do that while they're on to play my games, they also stick around for a half an hour to an hour upvoting other people and going through people's sites. I don't know, maybe it doesn't really matter, but to me it feels like I make a little difference.
This week was the first week that I had ever participated in the pay it forward contest, and if you saw how not good I was at it, that was very obvious. My point is, I think that it's a good thing for those who understand how to play it. And I think that it's helping a lot of people meet people and get their content out there. Bottom line is I think it's good for our community.
So as a token of my gratitude for what you do for our community I am sending you something to your wallet to show my appreciation. I know it's probably not much, but I hope that it helps.
And thank you once again for everything that you have done and that you are doing for everybody here. And as always I send all of my love to you and all of yours until we meet again.And as always I send all of my love to you and all of yours until we meet again.

Please see the footnote and post about SP - you are discounting your votes by letting your SP go below 80%. SP regenerates at 20% per day, so, you need 2 1/2 to 3 days of no voting to let it regenerate.

I would tell people to wait a few days to regain SP because then, you would more than double your effective SP - it is all multiplied.

You just blew my mind. You're the first person to offer that in depth of an evaluation of voting power. Thank you so much for that. And for replying to every single other piece of my comment. 😊 I do just have one more question. When I multiply 0.4 X 298 I get something like 119. So does that mean that it's the same as voting with 119 SP?

When I multiply 0.4 X 298 I get something like 119. So does that mean that it's the same as voting with 119 SP?

Exactly my point:

  • 298 voting power but at 40% strength voting at 100% of what is availble / left = 119 SP at 100% strength and also voting 100%
  • 298 voting power at 100% strength and voting only 40% - meaning 50 votes at 40% of 2% depletion = 20% depletion per day and 20% regeneration per day (and, yes, at 500 SP or above, you get a slider to choose voting with less than 100% of the 2% each time, but so can you with less than 500 SP - at busy.org)

Yeah, but my vote is worth so little as it is I'm not going to make it worth less. I don't know your views on it, but I see people uploading me with like 2% voting power and giving $0.001. I think that I would rather than just not vote at all and save their voting power for things they really enjoy. I do appreciate you spending so much time helping me. I almost feel bad for it because I know you must have a thousand other things to do. But thank you again and I send you all of my love dear friend.

thank you @freedomshift for including my gif and my call for ideas!! I LOVE how you shared these emjoi codes ! I have always wanted to know how to do them on here! Great post and thanks for the recognition as well my friend!

BTW I think you're doing a great job - don't get discouraged. I wish I had more time to take part in all these awesome challenges and games but I'm swamped with curation, moderating and posting lol but I think your bonus games sound like a lot of fun and great for people to earn a little SBD so I hope you'll keep trying! :)

@amariespeaks - Thank you for your encouragement.

That sounds like a good idea - take a step back and reassess :) contests can be taxing to run which is why I have only ever done one myself.. lol
