The fifth post in which I do want to place some of the steemians I do follow in the spotlight.
Not only by mentioning them but also giving the reason why I do follow them! Only the authors who do take time to reply to the comment they are getting and who do write at least 1 post per week will be mentioned!

This week I am going to devote this to the members of the Steemit Sport Betting Community. So there will be more than 3 in the list, and some of the are already mentioned on the previous posts.

Why do I want to place these guys in the spotlight?

The reason is simple, I do feel blessed to be part of such a great, friendly and active community!

Me

But like every week, let's start with myself. This is how I look today. Still not photogenic but in contrast to last week, I did shave myself :). They grey spots within my beard are growing faster then the cryptomarkets :)

@sbcbot

This is the account, which ties us all together. It is the account of the mighty SBC bot. The most generous and fair bot within the Steem Ecosystem. It rewards people for posting quality related post and interacting with the SBC community.
Let's see what steemreports thinks about the SBC web:

Becoming part of our SBD community is fairly simple: Just go to our Discord channel, introduce yourself and start interacting with us. Once we see that you will be a good fit, you are in!
The discord channel can be found here: https://discord.gg/9dQJbVD
If you want to delegate some Steem Power to the bot. Feel free to do so. We don't made to make a profit with the bot. All the rewards that are generated will be back invested into the bot!

As you can see above, we have 2 big names in our SBC community. They are more or less our whales. These guys are @stimp1024 and @costanza. They were so generous to delegate some Steem Power with the bot, so that I could start with its duty to support the community!

The discord channel

We did start with 3 members, but it is growing fast as lighting. The great part is that more and more continents are represented. I doubt it that we ever will be able to tell that we also have habitants of Antarctica in our community but I can life with that!
At the moment we have 24 active community members, each with their own specialty but all friendly and helpful! Just like it should be in a community!

The most active channels there are:

• general
• live-betting
• stats-models

The community!

I am just going to name all the member of the community. These are the ones which are whitelisted by the @sbcbot. I would like to encourage to follow all in the list, if you are on the list yourself.
And if you are not on the list and not interested in sports betting, most of us also do write about other (real) important stuff. Ranging from Steem related post toward world dilemma's.
@acelad: focusses on English football and does post each week his prediction for the Premier League and is our live betting expert!
@barbadosso: also football related. Didn't have you on my follow list, but this has been corrected now! He runs sports related contests!
@beat-the-bookies: our wiz kids and the creator of the SBC bot! Alsways online on the discord channel and one of the most friendly people I know. He is climbing the ranking of the Steem ladder! He writes about sports betting in general, his picks and about Steem!
@boatsports90: Also one of the early members of our community! I hope he will start blogging again soon. He is passionated about sports, his wife and cats but I do guess to order of importance changes day by day!
@costanza One of the founders of SBD. He is our brains, has incredible good ideas how we should get forward. Besides all this is he is really trying to give us all a push in the back and runs a weekly premier league contest. He does also give vital tips how to improve your Steem account. Like it or not @costanza but you are one of our whales :)
@crypto2crypto: One of our newest community members. You won't find much about sports betting on his blog but so much other good stuff! His blog is definitely a must follow if you are interested in Steem and other Cryptos!
@djoker: One of our tennis experts! Posts daily his tennis picks way ahead of the games. He is from France and will be disappointed with the result of his favorite football team next weekend. At least according to my model! Bon chance!
@galasek Again a member who does post his betting picks daily. Great information and analysis. I would really like to see on overview of your picks on your blog. It will make it much more genuine!
@inittowinit Seems missing in action. Hope he returns fast to the Steem blockchain. Would like to see some more posts about your betting journey!

@lawlees: From Nepal, if I am not mistaken. Writes about crypto and also runs a premier league contest!
@numpypython: Writes about his sports betting strategies and his results. Keep it going!
@sergino: Post his predictions about the Premier League, Champions league and the Europa league. As you guessed very football related. It is nice to see, how much our models differ!
@stimp1024: The biggest sponsors of the sbc bot. We can't thank you enough. Runs daily football, horse and greyhound related contest. A very generous and helpful person. I appreciate a lot what you are doing for our community. Just like Costanza, you are one or our whales and betting genies!

The steemit Ocean

It is a big ocean out there, so it is sometimes hard to find people who are worth our time.
The people mentioned above are worth my time on the steem blockchain!
So, what about you? Do you feel that I should follow a particular Steemian? And yes, you may also promote yourself. It could be that I am interested or not, but others will also read the comments and maybe they are interested (too). So use this post to promote yourself or the ones we should follow. Use the platform given to you!

Keep the faith,
Peter
