Let's compete for the GRAND PRIZE POOL valued at OVER 1050 STEEM!

[ecoinstant]

How to Play: Take a selfie with a piece of paper. On that piece of paper should be written one project from the Master Project List. Post that picture here in a comment.

Over 7 extended weeks of #buildbetter bounty posts we have assembled our 'Mater Project List' of things being built on #STEEM! It is not all-inclusive, but there are 48 projects along with my pick, @quintaesencia.

We will now engage in a series of elimination rounds, the first of which begins today and will stay open until Friday November 22nd. Each project that accumulates at least one unique user selfie will pass to round 2, each one that fails to meet this requirement will not.

During this time I will catch up on all manner of articles that I am behind on, including participation awards from round 1 and more exposition about the contest and its participants. I have been very fortunate to interact with many of the project on our list, and I wish you all the best! Use this time to get your user base ready, because future rounds will see an increase in the difficulty!

Here is the Master Project List, along with the final scores from the first 7 weeks of Phase 1:

While I try to figure out how to make this list less....long, let's take a look at the prize pools.

PRIZE POOLS

_{Are you looking to build an extra boost for your posts? Consider an asset-backed votebond like MAXUV!}

The Phase 1 Participation Prize Pool is still being tallied and sent out, and the Grand Prize Pool is still growing. We have another possible sponsor on the line and I am still very interested in being contacted by additional sponsors 😘

Here is the Grand Prize Pool as it stands now:

Plus 100 SBI from sponsor @improv = 1042 SBI plus 500 MAXUV tokens! This Grand Prize Pool is getting HUGE! And if we do confirm another sponsor, I plan to confirm prize depth to several places.

I will experiment with the Phase 2 Participation Prizes during this round.

SELFIE CONTEST

A long time ago right here on #STEEM my wife and I participated in a selfie contest hosted by @papa-pepper, and it was one of the most exciting times of our lives. This will not be like that, but it does take inspiration from that.

So follow my example and jump right in 😉

Thank you for this, it means a lot to me 🥰

@heyhaveyamet is through to the next round!

[thekittygirl]

There's some good projects there, but some of us have privacy concerns, or are too old and/or too ugly to participate in this selfie stuff. 😕

[ecoinstar]

Ah! I understand the concern, although you are beautiful of course!

I am just about to post making a few more rules clear - would something like this work for you?

My only request is that you would use the same disguise/proxy for each round.

[ecoinstant]

Here is my article that I hope addresses your concerns - I just noticed that steempeak allows you to scrub metadata from images, I might talk about metadata in a future post. Is that what you meant by privacy?

[balte]

You are delegating to a account @mmmmkkkk311 who is downvoting me for nothing! So I will downvote your posts of course!
Best regards!

[khimgoh]

Thanks for the explanation. Please do know that it wasn't because of any malice or intentions to down vote you for any reason. I haven't been active on Steemit since earlier this year till about July and had decided to lease my SP to the open market via dlease as for it to not go to waste.

I would like to request for you to please reconsider your down vote as you are down voting me because someone else is down voting you and it is not because of the fact that I produce bad, plagiarized and totally inappropriate content on my posts?

Best Regards I supposed too?

[balte]

My dear friend, as far as i can see, you are supporting this account @mmmmkkkk31162 with 3,027.971 SP.
this account never ever have understood my comments or posts (they are written in german language), but still he remains downvoting my comments.
So what can I do, just downvote you, because you support this account and his behavouir!
Best regards!

[khimgoh]

Why don't you address it with them? If there is no reason for them to do so then tell them? Instead you down vote me. I already explained to you that I leased out my SP on the open market. There is a total of 13K delegated to them and yet you choose to down vote me. That's why I asked you to reconsider your vote and go the appropriate way instead of this.

[littlenewthings]

Hello @balte , I think you are not the only person. I have seen this account randomly downvote people including one of my post if I remembered correctly.
I have vaguely heard about posts are downvoted for misusing tribe hashtags and such. I know lassecash hashtags targets quite substantial downvotes, including sportstalk lately (partly because of shit posts from actifit by many people)

Maybe you can check what sort of hashtag you have been using to see if there is any "violation" you accidentally stepped on?

My best suggested approach is that don't bark at the person who used a system to lease out their SP. The unfortunate thing is that there weren't any regulators to check the reason of the person (menace / not - in this case it was of menace intention) who rented the SP.

Even if there was, it could be fake fill in and then does the manace

I do not know how the contract works between the automated delegator / delegatee system; but if there are ways to retract it I am sure it will. Besides, even retracting the delegation right at this moment will still allow that account to amok on his / her downvote spree for the next 7 days.

It would be better to dig in around and see who is the owner of this nom de guerre account, then confront the person?
