RE: Do you want more contests or challenges on steemit?

  • Yes. (Please notice kind of contest or challenge)

This is a tough one for me, because I'm not a fan of seeing constant contest posts in my feed, especially ones that I will never enter. They've tailed off quite a bit in the 15 months I've been here, probably because of STEEM values, though SBI seems to be taking the place of STEEM/SBD prizes.

That said, I believe contests do have some worth, and that they can help to provide some sense of community, if people are willing to participate. That usually means offering some nice prizes, which could mean a need for more sponsors. If anything, I think some consolidation would be in order, and that might actually help those who are running them, too.

You can't force people to sponsor something, though, but you can make them aware of the contests and try to provide some incentive for them to do it, without it necessarily being financial. Everyone has something that they derive satisfaction from, besides monetary compensation. Just need to figure out what that is.

Ok.

Let me try to correct my fault

Yes is more for new entrepeuners and new ideas may be more unique ones

Need more is for already running one and need more payments for more interests and quality entries

So @glenalbrethsen what kind of a contest you will participate or host

Thanks for interest

(i thought this answer after i published 😊👍✌️) for third choice

Well, I've entered a few over the time I've been here. The ones I'm still participating in is @abh12345's Curation And Engagement Leagues. STEEM prizes for top 10 places, plus SBI giveaways by league participants for other placings.

I also participate in @curie's curation contest. I participate in the five minute freewrite, which is mostly for fun, and @foodfightfriday's weekly contests about food.

These are all things that I'm naturally doing throughout the course of a week, so it's not like I really go out of my way to participate. That's why I've shied away from others.

I don't host a contest, and probably never will. I'd rather put my personal efforts in curating content I believe adds value to the platform, while producing my own. That's where I think I'm most useful. :)

😊👍👏✌️
