Thank you

I hope @digicrypt drops by on the #poetry tag...

@richardjuckes
I know what you mean, poetry is so overlooked and when it is seen people tend to think:
That looks easy!
Not that it is a worthy consolation prize, but I will drop by and check out your poem :)

Β  Β· Β 8 years agoΒ (edited)

Thank you. I was channelling my inner Vogon, because more than upvotes what a poet wants is somebody to actually read the stuff. It's a lot to ask, but history is against us. Whale upvotes ease the pain. More power to your verse.

Β  Β· Β 8 years agoΒ 

I completely understand, it is as if only poets will read other poets work and we are a dieing breed on Steemit.

Good luck!
After 3 days he has probably forgot the question,
but just in case he is endowed with the perfect type of volcanic fumes, I tossed him a question too :)

Leave suggestions of specific posts, blogs, # in the comments of this post! https://steemit.com/takemyvotes/@digicrypt/tonight-i-am-voting-with-the-power-of-a-whale
Let me know how I should use my voting power!

Here is my poetry post of today, but please do spread the bounty liberally in the #poetry and #poem tags, which seem to have been a little neglected recently. Happy voting!

I will do my best! My blog focuses on crypto, cryptology and tech but Steemit is inspiring me to be more creative! so I want to support the artists here!

Β  Β· Β 8 years agoΒ 

You are an interesting person, Mr (or Ms) Coarse ! :)

I totally agree!

Yet again, great initiative! Handing your power over to different members helps spread the love to everyone :-)

Good luck to everyone.

Congrats, @htooms! It was quite interesting to read.

You are funny ! I like this initiative so much! Best way to spread power in sharing your wealth with less , let me call it " fortunate".

Awesome! I really love those competitions! Good luck to all participants!

I emailed you.... I never check my encrypted accounts, unless I am expecting something... if you have time, just head to my page and comments tab and shoot me something anytime you like.

Just say "chk your e/m" or something. Don't even say what service I use LOL, I will go find it.

I can also run a contest with you if you like!!! We can run it together and you can Steem fund it and we can encourage people!!!

I have artwork designed weeks ago for one already I ran. I just do not have much.

Hi @htooms, I cannot understand the qualify's meaning. You wrote

In order to qualify you must...

  • have more than 50.000 SP in your account (no freshly created accounts)
  • have less than 20,000.000 SP in your account (no current dolphins)

Nobody can have both qualifications. Sorry to answer here. Am I disqualified now? It's a great offer anyway.

Β  Β· Β 8 years agoΒ 

Hey @afrog - kurz von mir - wieso geht das nicht? Zwischen 50-20.000 SP sollte derjenige besitzen - aber ich glaub die Aktion ist erst einmal auf Eis gelegt bei dem großartigen @htooms - leider

Β  Β· Β 8 years agoΒ 

Also zunΓ€chst ist der Artikel ja aus dem MΓ€rz. Das hatte ich nicht geschnallt, resteemed und eine Frage gestellt, die du jetzt erfreulicher Weise beantwortet hast. Dann wurde der Artikel auch noch ziemlich blass. Ich komme also nicht in Frage. Ist vielleicht auch besser so.

Β  Β· Β 8 years agoΒ 

Ach so, wieso das nicht geht!
have more than 50.000 SP
have less than 20,000.000 SP
Ich muss mehr als 50000 und weniger als 20000 haben. Das geht nicht, @uwelang.

Β  Β· Β 8 years agoΒ 

Falsch :-) - 50.000 im Englischen bedeutet FΓΌnfzig SP (ignoriere die Nullen) hinter Punkten (die sind nur wichtig nach Komma im Englischen - 20,000.000 bedeutet 20.000 (20 tausend) SP

Β  Β· Β 8 years agoΒ 

Na ja @uwelang, da habe ich nicht aufgepasst. Aber abgesehen von der KlÀrung der Dimension, beinhaltet die Aussage von @htooms einen Widersinn. Ich soll mehr als Fünfzig haben und weniger als 20. Das geht einfach nicht. Ich sehe schon, da blicken selbst die grâßten Denker nicht durch.

Β  Β· Β 8 years agoΒ 

Du hast meinen Kommentar nicht gelesen oder @afrog :-)? 50-20000 SP ist die Range, alles korrekt von @htooms - Komma / Punkte bei Zahlen im Englischen sind umgekehrt wie bei uns

Β  Β· Β 8 years agoΒ 

Doch, ich habe gelesen @uwelang und Recht mit Punkt und Komma hast du ebenfalls. Danke, dass du dich weiter damit befasst hast. Ich will ja auch keine AffΓ€re inszenieren, oder gar den Wal und Dich verΓ€rgern. Mittlerweile habe ich verstanden, dass ein Intervall gemeint ist. Aber selbst bei allen linguistischen Besonderheiten zwischen Englisch und Deutsch verstehe ich diese zwei klar formulierten Bedingungen nicht als integrierenden Intervall, sondern als Ausschluss. Um es noch einmal zu verdeutlichen:
Er fordert in der Liste seiner Bedingungen nicht etwa β€žβ‰₯20000 und ≀50000β€œ sondern

≀ 20000 UND β‰₯ 50000 .

Wenn man im Englischen auf diese Weise Intervalle notiert muss ich sagen, da verstehe ich zum ersten Mal kein Englisch.

Thanks for this initiative, it's really awesome!!! ^_^
