Fewer poets this week, which is unfortunate, but the bear market continues to keep a lot of people away from Hive for now. We did have three new poets this weel. Welcome @joseph23, @kelday666, and @mercysugar. Hope you guys will stick around!

There we go. If you have time, check them out and see what you think. And if you like any, let the author know about it by leaving a great comment!

Comments

Some great comments this week. @mrenglish gave us the most comments, so 50 Ecency POINTS to you, and the random winner of another 50 POINTS is @penyaircyber.

Also 10 POINTS to everyone else who made at least 2 coments for every poem they posted.

Winner of Hive SBI and PIMP

Remember, only people who gave two comments for every poem they posted are eligible for this contest. The only exception is that new poets are giving a pass their first week here.

Excluding myself, that puts 6 people in the running for HIVE SBI and 5 people in the running for PIMP tokens. Well that makes it easy for PIMP. Only 5 people either used the tag and commented twice for every poem they posted or were new, so all 5 of you get the prizes. But for SBI we have to do a drawing.

I threw you guys into a random picker

and the winner is…

For Hive SBI:

@kelday666 - 2 SBI
@mercysugar - 2 SBI
@joseph23 - 1 SBI

For PIMP tokens:

@joseitosanchezs - 50 PIMP
@joseph23 - 50 PIMP
@kelday666 - 50 PIMP
@mercysugar - 50 PIMP
@penyaircyber - 50 PIMP

Congratulations!

(if you aren’t sure what SBI is, it’s kind of lifetime payment system. You can read about it here)

And thank you all for your wonderful poems!


Next Week ~ Next Prize

Next week will be the same reward — shares of Hive SBI and PIMP. For PIMP, you must use the #pimp tag. For both SBI and PIMP, you must comment at least twice for every poem you post.

The exact amount of Hive SBI depends on how many poets submit poems for the week.

0–9 poets - 1 SBI
10–19 poets - 5 SBI (split 2–2–1)
20–49 poets - 10 SBI (split 3–2–2–2–1)

(Note, these numbers don’t include @moeknows or myself.)

So if you want a chance for Hive SBI, go write a poem! If you want a chance for a lot of Hive SBI, go recruit others (and write a poem)! Spread the word, upvote and share this post to make it more visible, contact poet buddies on Discord and try to talk them into joining our group.

Just remember the rules:

  1. Comment on two other poems for every one that you post
  2. Make it a good comment (not just “great poem!”)
  3. If you offer criticism, keep it gentle and polite and remember the golden rule of criticism: say at least two positive things for every one thing you criticize.

Anyone caught breaking these rules will not be eligible for the reward.

I’m looking forward to reading everyone’s new poem in this next week.

(Note: If you’d like to donate anything for the contest, such as Hive Engine tokens or Hive, please get in touch with me. Look for me as dbooster#6252 on Discord.)
