Dear STEEMIT!
This project is designed to be a fun way to boost minnows on STEEMIT, without causing negative impact on the REWARDS POOL, and not to hijack and take offline the rewards received! We will be presenting a WIDE VARIETY of events for STEEMIANS to 'voice their opinion' as to what the outcome will be, and hopefully to discuss the events themselves. In return those who have chosen correctly will have the post earnings rewarded to them.
Please note how the rewards are provided to authors - 50%/50% .. it would be nice if there were more elaborate options but for now this is what STEEMIT has put in-place. 50% will be automatically powered-up and the ENTIRE AMOUNT that remains will go to those who have selected the correct outcome.
Very simple equation ... TOTAL POST PAYOUT (50% in STEEM & SBD) / # OF CORRECT VOTES
We want to keep people engaged without becoming overwhelmed ourselves, and we do not wish to distract from all the great content that is out there. Perhaps we can increase this in the future, but we really do wish to be very low impact. We simply wish people to have a fun way to slowly grow their STEEMPower, and to generate discussions around events.
In order to keep things flowing in the beginning, the posts will be somewhat lightweight - we will not be using any elaborate backend systems to automate distribution, so bare with us. Everything will improve over time, we ask for your patience and support, but most of all your participation, so it makes the effort worthwhile for everyone!
We can not stress enough that our objective is not to mimic what we have seen before on STEEMIT - this is not gambling, this is the expression of opinion on events, and rewarding those who have chosen correctly. The participants risk nothing in this process - the objective is only to give people a way to win a little something, on a continuing basis. We want the more easily discouraged STEEMIANS to have a place where they can go to gain a predictable increase in their STEEMPower, over time, in order to prevent them from losing enthusiasm and leaving.
We swear, that no matter what negative response we receive at the outset, we will continue to provide this option to those who wish to participate, no matter what. All we ask is that those of you who wish us to continue, do not give up on us. This is a small project by small STEEMIANS, for small STEEMIANS .. we hope only to be allowed to provide a means of 'opinion expression' and distribute some very modest rewards.
