Why is the only competitor to splinterlands constantly promoted by you @ocd. Didn't say anything the first three times but this time I am downvoting.
You upvote yourself to the top of trending and get people to use the Ethereum blockchain, this is mental. I don't have any problem with any blockchains, but this is becoming more than paid promotion.
I don't see them as competitors cause the gameplay is completely different nor do you really need to use ETH to play GU. We're bringing in new users to use Steem and at the same time they may be introduced to SM as well. We're also planning on creating teamocd for SM but as of now there's not much interest between the current players, we've been in talks with yabapmatt about some cross promotion when the time comes. The important thing here is to bring gamers to Steem and see what they are missing out on for both a censorship free platform and being able to be rewarded for the content you produce in what is for many their first crypto.
These posts require a big vote to help fund the tournaments and incentivize people to bring in more players to Steem, some times we vote them late as to not take up trending and sometimes we vote them early so more players find them. In this case we got over 15 new comments since we voted it up, although I have to admit some were spammers that I downvoted just now. As you can see the beneficiaries all go to @teamocd and others are also placing some beneficiaries to it from their posts helping crowdfund future giveaways and steem rewards.
Thanks for your answer, removing my downvote.
