The Deadpost Initiative is a chance to reward under rewarded content from the past while making friends and building stronger community ties. We repost in the community and the most undervalued posts get a prize and some recognition. This is not just about being rewarded for good material, it’s about getting to know each other too.

Join the Deadpost Initiative Communtiy

Since we disappeared for so many weeks and this is our first time having a community to post in, we can start over from #1 (the original project ran for 40-50 weeks).

Also: Unrelated, but I have another contest running this week, inviting you to share your favorite steemians who left, people who you'd like to bring to Hive. 100 Hive in prizes, Check it out.

Week 1

Getting the word out takes time, not so many entries this week but some gems. We still need to figure out how to do this. There was some confusion about tags when it comes to crossposting. This week we will change the rules to be crossposting only. This will simplify things. Please do not re-post. I want to see the original date easily. You can leave a comment in your post to re-introduce it in detail.

We still need to smooth out some details but I think this is going to be a nice initiative. If there are any problems we will work them out!

Week 1 Great Deadposts

@autobodhi

My original Steem Introduction post: Drifting on the breeze. Who can say where I will land? Will I linger here?

One of the most undervalued introduction posts from one of the most undervalued users of Hive. @shookriya and his music account @autobodhi overflow with talent. I'm glad he entered cause I love the idea of sending Hive his way.
Prize: 12 Hive

@holovision

Deadpost - Sexist Sherlock Holmes

@holovision posts a lot of material about old TV and movies which can be really nostalgic. I liked this analysis of an old Sherlock Holmes episode. It shows how far we've come and also how it's ok to blow up a lion, as long as it's a small lion. I also appreciate that he tried to make sure everyone was following the format, though we are still figuring out the format as we go along.
Prize: 10 Hive

Nebraska's Nightscape- More than Just Cornfields

An interesting and versatile user I discovered recently, also with multiple accounts(@solcycler and @@@alphahippie) for different topics including self sustainable life, ebikes, tai chi, and here he's got a nice photo journal from Nebraska. Check him out!

Prize: 5 Hive

@ange.nkuru

#showcase-sunday - Journey through The Blockchain - A Story in Common (Fiction)(PART 2)(ENGLISH)

@ange.nkuru provides us with a bit of crypto-fiction, or even crypto-fetish sci-fi. Fun stuff! Imagine a world where steem (HAHA) is the world currency! I guess that didn't age well...or maybe it did....who knows?
