My very first contest has come to an end and now it is time to announce the winners.
All Good Things Come To An End
My first contest was all about learning new things on SteemIt and was heavily supported by #superbowlweekne & #newbieresteemday. (@davemccoy, this wouldn't have been possible without you, thanks again. I owe you one ... or many more)
The original post can be found here:
Contestants had to answer 3 questions:
1 - What did you learn about SteemIt today?
2 - Why did you think that was important to learn?
3 - What was your approach? What did you do to learn this?
Learning new things on SteemIt isn't only important for all the new Steemians out there, but for all of us. By learning something new every day, you can keep improving your skills and stay ahead of the game.
So, even now the contest has come to an end, keep on learning!
Learning new things every day is the key to success
I'm already planning another contest like this, but first I've got to take a little break. Next week you can find me on a snowboard somewhere in the French Alpes.
Announcing The Winners
How the winners would be chosen was stated in the original post: after filtering out all invalid comments, 2 winners would be randomly chosen by using the Steem Comment Picker.
Each winner would receive 1/2 of the SBD that is paid out to me at the end of the week.
So, let's see how much was paid out to me:
My cut was 9.40 SBD, so each winner will receive 4.70 SBD.
To decide which of the many contestants would win the contest, I entered my post URL into the form field at Steem Comment Picker and clicked 'Pick Random Winner'.
These two comments were selected:

The prizes will be sent instantly after publishing this post. Proof will be posted in the comments section.
A Message To All Contestants
Maybe you didn't win a money prize this time, but remember this:
YOU ARE ALL WINNERS!!!
As long as you keep on learning at least 1 new thing every day, you're working your way towards success!
Keep an eye out for the next challenge, which will be posted soon!

Want to have your post on the map too?
I missed the boat, lol. I've been taking a break brother. Raising a 2 year old and I'm pushing 55 this summer. I know I'm nuts, even crazier than most. I'm planning on having another next year at the young age of 56 God willing.
Anyway sorry I missed the contest and thank you for putting one on in the first place. Keep up the awesomeness! Peace, Kris
Thanks. I don’t think you can call raising a 2-year old ‘taking a break’ ;0)
I have three kids of my own, and they maybe a handful but they bring such joy into life. Go for it my friend..:)
