This post marks the beginning of week 2 of the month-long COMedy Rumble. It will end on the 30th of July.
It is a new kind of contest format we think it might be more fun than the usual format of 1st, 2nd, and third place plus honorable mentions.
Instead, we will have different categories that different people could compete for.
We also aim to give more value to good posts beyond the usual weekly rewards, whether those rewards come from the contest or the usual payout.
Some posts and their authors will be eligible for rewards even after the COMedy Rumble is over.
Before we go into the rules and prizes for the COMedy Rumble we must talk about Listnerds as it is the main reason we are able to do this month-long, hopefully exciting contest.
You can join Listnerds Here
ListNerds is the first hybrid viral mailer and content discovery tool based on the Hive blockchain. It introduced 'proof of mail' into the industry which allows users to not only guarantee their messages are seen and read, but encourages the entire community to engage with the content which creates a win-win for everyone involved!
