Here are the poems published to Blockchain Poets for the week of July 31–Aug 6. Let’s have a look at the poems then we will get down to the contest winner.
This Week’s Poems
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
Unfortunately, we didn’t have many comments at all this week. Only two people followed the community rules and posted two comments for every poem they posted. C’mon, we can do better that. I hope to see more comments next week.
At least that makes the Ecency POINTS giveaway easy. 50 POINTS to the person with the most comments @joseitosanchezs and 50 POINTS to the other person who gave enough comments, @driptorchpress. Thank you, guys!
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 5 people in the running for HIVE SBI and 4 people in the running for PIMP tokens.
No need for a random drawing this week. Only 2 people followed the group rules and left enough comments, and there were three new members who get a pass, so that’s our 5 places right there, or 4 in the case of PIMP.
and the winner is…
For Hive SBI:
@balikis95 - 2 SBI
@driptorchpress - 2 SBI
@joseitosanchezs - 2 SBI
@joseph23 - 2 SBI
@tess100 - 2 SBI
For PIMP tokens:
@balikis95 - 50 PIMP
@joseitosanchezs - 50 PIMP
@joseph23 - 50 PIMP
@tess100 - 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:
- Comment on two other poems for every one that you post
- Make it a good comment (not just “great poem!”)
- 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.
