I can't believe more red fish aren't interested to in this!!

They need to understand that having more SP to curate and engage can be just as, if not sometimes even more rewarding that authoring a post that may not get that much rewards.

Hi @livinguktaiwan thanks for the invitation to this contest, although I had already seen it I had not set aside the time to participate, good thing they gave more days in the contest.

It is very important what you say, the new ones still do not understand the concept of steem SP including me.

When I read the post I knew that it was a good prize but I don't know in what benefits me directly, now with your comment I understand that it is to benefit with the vote to other steemians.

Having but clear the objective, I encourage to participate and tomorrow early I will publish, thank you very much friend @livinguktaiwan

You actually have a point there, some newbies may not understand the implications of having more SP.
In the simplest term, having more SP will give you more power on the platform. For example, when you curate, your upvote value will be greater, you will get more curation rewards, ie more SP that you can then power up. So it's a circle that helps you to grow.

I see a lot of good-hearted people here who host contests all the time but not always a lot of entrants which is a shame. I would say, if you see any contest with Steem/ SBD/SP/upvote as a prize, do try to enter. You really have nothing to lose and you may gain some new followers!!!

This is why I seldom hold contests. Though I give out good prizes, I have very little if any participation! Support from the STEEM community has been fantastic, to include @niallion11 joining in as co-sponsor!

Oh well. Maybe since there are 8 days left as of this response to your comment remaining, entries might start trickling in.

Many times my dear friend, people don't cheer up because they think they won't achieve anything; That fatalistic mentality is not easy to get out of small minds. Soon you will see the triumph of your challenges and they shine with the sun at its zenith. I know well that I can help by giving resteem and calling others to the contest, but if I could help with anything else, feel safe to count on me, my dear @sgt-dan

Creo que la poca participación se debe a que la mayoría desconoce el concurso. A ésto se le suma que otros esperan el voto milagroso de una super ballena. El trabajo constante y participar con los más grandes, es el resultado que todos queremos obtener, pero pocos están dispuestos a trabajar para ganarlos.

I think that the little participation is due to the fact that most people don't know about the contest To this is added that others await the miraculous vote of a super whale. Constant work and participating with the biggest ones is the result we all want to get, but few are willing to work to win them.
I will give resteem and continue to warn other steemians that they seem to be comfortable living in the last link of the food chain. A hug, my dear @ sgt-dan
Daré resteem y seguiré avisando a otros steemians que parece que se sienten cómodos viviendo en el último eslabón de la cadena alimenticia. Un abrazo, mi querido @sgt-dan

Hi @sgt-dan. This is a great contest you are sponsoring for the Redfish. I hope more of them decide to participate. It's a great way to grow your account, gain exposure, and engage with more steemians.

sgt-dan (61) · 5 years ago

Thank you so much! We have gotten a couple more folks to enter, so that is great!

Hi @sgt-dan. Quick question. I noticed that in your post above you stated:

Are you are a REDFISH (below 500 Steem Power {SP})

Then in the post that has the prizes listed and qualifications, you stated

Redfish (up to 1,000 SP) or something like that.

My understanding is that a Redfish is an account with less than 500SP. Is this correct?
Once I reached 500SP, my status changed to MINNOW.

Just thought I'd ask.

sgt-dan (61) · 5 years ago (edited)

Yes, you are correct. It was indeed my mistake and I have since edited the original post in order to prevent confusion.

Thank you so much for bringing the error to my attention! I apologize for any confusion it has caused.

Hi @sgt-dan. No problem. Just that @brittandjosie stated in steemterminal discord that I was eligible to participate. I didn't think I was, having gone through 2 of the redfish rallies, 1-100SP for Nov (in which I won); then 101-499SP, just finishing in December.

I'll resteem this post. Thanks for all you do.

sgt-dan (61) · 5 years ago

The redfish requirement (less then 500 Steem Power) is counting your owned SP, not any delegated SP you may have and/or are currently receiving.

As your current SP is over 800 SP, not counting any incoming delegations, you are not eligible for this contest I am sorry to say.

justclickindiva (64) · 5 years ago

I already knew this, but when she made the comment about the 1K maximum, I just went to check out your post to see what she was talking about. Then alerted you.

No problem at all. And thanks for looking into it. Have a good day.

Thanks @sgt-dan for this initiative to promote the blockchain and above all to help the fish or rather sardines like me.

Maybe the promotion of the contest is not so clear for newcomers to steemit and therefore the low participation, you must define what is the purpose and benefit of the contest and what they get for participating.

Because it is good to have more Sp and what can be done with it.

Thank you for creating these contests and don't be discouraged, please go ahead. Tomorrow morning you will have my participation.

I'm still slow to create a post hehe.
