Another round :) Enjoy this week judges, I'm gonna enjoy a week off ..
A well deserved week off.
You make great drawings. Perhaps on your week off if you're inspired to draw you may design... I dunno... say a Comedy Open Mic T-Shirt for Steemfest?
Just a thought.
Thank you! I can think about that if I can come up with something .. would be cool :-)
I did it! This is my second offering for this round!
I nominate @paul.atreides and @ecoinstant!

Thanks for the post, comedyopenmic.
This bot runs through hundreds of posts per day selecting a small percentage of posts that have exceptional positivity.
Your post has been selected and upvoted because it has a high concentration of positive words that give feel-good vibes. Thank you for creating content that focuses on the bright side.
Your post has also been entered to be included in a daily roundup of positive posts.Please comment 'yes' or 'no' if you feel that my bot is correct in its judgement of this post. Your comments will be used to determine if this article belongs in the curated list. Over time, your feedback will be used to improve the judgement of this bot
How can we opt out of this bot?
By handing them over to the police hahahaha
😀😀😀 @josediccus do you mean steem police or patrols?
Consider it done - I'll add you to a list of users to not post to. If you don't think that the bots comment is appropriate, you can also vote 'no'. Your comments improve the bot's ability to determine what posts are appropriate to post to.
Thanks. Good luck with your bot.
"Your post has also been entered to be included in a daily roundup of positive posts.Please comment 'yes' or 'no' if you feel that my bot is correct in its judgement of this post"
is confusingly worded.
May I offer an edit?
"Your post has also been included in a daily roundup of positive posts. Please comment 'yes' if you think your post is a positive post and you would like to be included, or 'no' if you feel that your post is not a positive post. You may comment "stop" to be added to a list of users that will never be included and will receive no more comments."
Nice, I like that much better as well. The 'stop' portion will take longer to implement but wording is super easy.
Thanks for considering my feedback!
OK - apologies for taking so long, but I've implemented your request. Unfortunately, this will only work for future posts and won't be retroactive, so you'll only get spammed once more. Also, only the original poster can 'unsubscribe'. I imagine it wouldn't be fair for a user that is not the original poster to remove that posts ability to garner additional traffic and receive upvotes. Thanks again for your feedback.
An interesting contest. I also like to watch funny movies.
