Hey again, steemizens
The times, they are a changin'
I've got some big news to share. As of yesterday, I have entered into an agreement to officially convert the steem witness I have operated alone since August of 2017, into a team/committee operated witness with two other dedicated and well known steemizens.
This post officially documents the introduction of this new team for the @SirCork witness node in the blockchain.
I am thrilled and pleased to announce that I will be joining forces with the amazing @RhondaK of The Writer's Block community, the SteemShelves project and SteemHouse Publishing.
But wait, there's more!
I am ALSO excited and honored to announce that joining @rhondak and I, will be none other than @Beanz of VO.TU - The Voices of the Underground community.
As you know, I founded the @YouAreHOPE Foundation, steem's exclusive, 100% blockchain transparent, community fueled, worldwide humanitarian aid organization and the @SteemStarNetwork - the live stream at the center of the Steemiverse as well.
Therefore...
We hereby announce ourselves as your newest witness team, who will operate as completely equal peers in this group to make democratically-decided conclusions between us when decisions are required, while working together in ways which we believe will benefit the longevity of the platform, and working hard to bring valuable services and information to the platform by creating and sustaining various ways to give voices to all types of users like you.
Here are the corresponding official announcements from @beanz and @rhondak on the matter of us joining forces as "The Three Headed Beast"

That's great, Cork! You couldn't have found two smarter partners, but now, what do?
Well! Glad you asked! As of now, if you want to vote for @beanz, @rhondak and I to be one of your selected witnesses, then just register a witness vote for @sircork and you will be choosing all three of us at the same time.
If you already vote for @sircork on your witness list or via proxy, there is no required change.
If you do wish to add your vote for team @rhondak, @beanz and @sircork, then just click here and register your vote via one click and steemconnect:

Great news. Of course you had my vote many moons ago but it's fantastic to see straight shooters like beanz getting involved. Not to mention that she's the third Irish person involved in operating a witness (demotruk, paulag) and that can only be a good thing;)

Nice decision @sircork. As many people would have it, the full meaning of TEAM is: Together Everyone Achieves More. I believe in teamwork, i believe in leveraging other people's time, effort and other resources. You have made real effort in the right direction. In no distant time, i am convinced that you will reap the rewards of working together with great minds.

Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Lol. Well I'm not looking to scare any whales. But I do agree that the smaller members of the community are undervalued. And the more people who find some small amount of success here, the more people we can attract to help build this network. It's a pity many of the stakeholders don't realise that that is where the value comes from.

Hi Chelsea. Voting for us as a team, ensures the witness vote held by the sircork witness should it reach a top 20 voting position is decided upon in any given hardfork election by the three of us, with a quorum amongst us for how we as a team decide to render our hardfork vote... if we reach the top 20 to vote to begin with. In the meantime, the related projects we run will all work together to serve the community with various outlets for their voices beyond the blogs into the ecosystem.

This is an individual vote. Just like voting for Buildteam, curie, ocd-witness, any of the three main spanish community ones, crimson and followbtcnews, paulag and abg12345 or any other witness team that cooperates to operate a steem blockchain witness server.
