I am not a crazy fan of participating in contests, but I'd crazily search for contests as a newbie just because I was told that it's one of the only way to make do on the steem blockchain.
The contests I joined in my first few months on the blockchain never seemed to favour me as a person, lol. I always find myself coming up as a runner up that is not entitled to any reward, haha!
However, I on-boarded a community on the platform named #steemjet later in my Steemit journey.
The sponsor of #steemjet, @dimimp organised the very first contest in the community of which everyone who participated emerged as winners. Everyone who participated got a reward of 150 steems, Oh really! Yea, I got 150 steems as at when a steem worth a little above $3 😁.
It was such a pleasant experience to have been rewarded with such a huge prize (It was damn huge, maybe just to me😏).
Another I would love to mention was when I won 300 steems as a reward very recently as a reward to a *logo contest* also pertaining to the #steemjet community organised by @dimimp, did you just say, "Dimimp again!?"😜. Yea, Dimimp did!
My entry to the logo contest
@acesontop, both contests that awarded me a total of 450 steems are my favorites and a blessing, believe me sincerely!
Best regards,
Samal.
