Oh this is exciting, looking forward to nominating a few people and seeing the shortlists

Nice! I like to see people trying to help other succeed! Good Job!

Smart idea! I'm following you now :) follow me back!

Great concept! I'm really excited to see more contests and things like this that utilize the democratic nature of this network. They have the potential to really change the nature of how we interact with social sites on a day to day basis, really cool stuff. Power to ya!

Great idea. As for these categories - is best Steem Educator an award for the person who educates best on all things that are steemit. Or are we taking someone who educates people on any topic or many topics???

I think you just created a new category! :-)

Heck yeah! In that case I'm gunning for the categories of best financial advice and best life hack.

Is there is any minimum reputation value to participate? @kurtbeil

Yes, we have discussed setting a minimum, a relatively low one in order to get everyone involved, but one that will weed out the "Bad Bots" and troublemakers - this we will confirm via the website when nominations and votes are entered.

Cheers

okay, thanks . Great way to engage commiunity

Oh how shocking!! solid grassroots effort not shown any love from The Whales!! I guess their votes are the only ones that are supposed to matter!!???

LOL yes, tis a lil discouraging, but we will continue regardless. The people of STEEMIT will choose who they feel are the best among us, and not have them chosen for us. This is for the future of STEEMIT which The Whales, more than any of us, should be concerned about.
