What do you really mean?
Monday was an interesting day! The topic of the week, Context, seemed to throw a spanner in the works for some of the Drop in the Ocean crowd. It was a difficult one to write and talk about, which made it equally difficult to host! Regardless, our members pulled through and managed to come up with some brilliant posts, sharing what context means to them, from their own perspective.
We're going to feature the winners of the week and we'll also share the rest of the posts afterward. Keep reading on so you can find out how you can get involved next week, there's another quality topic for you to write about!
The votes have been rolling in from the attendees of the show and we have the posts ready to share with you all.
The top two voted writers will 'level up'. When a member has leveled up, they will receive a daily upvote from the BuddyUP account at 50%. The member keeps their level for 2 weeks, unless they level up again on DITO within those 2 weeks. Every time you level up, you will receive an additional 10% on your daily vote, maxing out at level 5.
The writer with the most votes will be resteemed straight after this post. This is so we can all look back at the BuddyUP blog and see the winning posts from each week.
The votes have been piling in, along with the amazing comments from the participants, so it's time for us to count them up and share the top writers this week. We haven't received votes from everybody in the channel yet, but the show must go on. Make sure you drop by to the #drop-in-the-ocean-voting channel next week, if you have access, so you can leave your vote on your favorite post.
Let's not hang around any longer, this week's winners are...

@dreemsteem says "lets the silence ring".
In the writing it is whitespace, in reading it is a pause, in thinking it is a ROAR.

Yet again, we have another set of amazing runners-up posts which need credit all on their own! As always they are challenging different perspectives and giving you a little insight into what the word Context really means. There is always a wide variety of posts from our members and it's great to hear from you all on a Monday. It's the best way to start the week!
It's wonderful to be able to feature you all at the moment because of the infant nature of the show, but in time, we will need to select 2 winners and five members to feature in this post. Just a little pre-warning to keep you all improving your posts week after week!
