[eudadol]

Hi. Is it required to have two other hivers join? If so, how do we show proof?

[cinnccf]

Hey @eudadol, You can just state the names of the ones you've invited at the bottom of your post. It's basically to get more awareness, and sometimes people miss out on opportunities to enter just because they did not see the contest. If they take part or subscribe it's not your responsibility.
Thank you for asking. I hope you are doing ok despite everything.
It's great to see you back online.
All good wishes🙏

[eudadol]

This is great. I'll be joining.

We are thriving. Thanks for the concern. :)

Looking forward to reading your post:)

Oh, I am sorry to hear about that storm. I shall tune into the news. I trust you and your family will remain safe, and I'm saddened to hear of the others who succumbed to the storm.
I really appreciate your effort in making your post before the deadline.
I hope things will improve soon🙏
