Welcome to #HivePUD (Hive Power Up Day), October 1st 2021

[traciyork]

 
 

While technically in my little corner of the world there's still a few-ish hours left in September (I'm posting this at about 8:30pm EST), #HivePUD for October 1st 2021 has already arrived in other parts of the world. If you want a super cool way to check if it's officially in your area according to UTC time (which is how the Hive Buzz badges are determined), be sure to check out the Countdown Timer on the hivebuzz.me site, courtesy of the awesomesauce team at @hivebuzz!

AND TO CLARIFY:

• If you want to qualify for the AMAZING Hive Power Up Day badge(s), your power up must happen during the 24 hours of October 1st, 2021 according to UTC time.

and/or

• If you want to qualify for the #HivePUD prize pool, your power up and post must happen (according to criteria listed below) during the hours of October 1st, your local time.

 

As I said in July, I've changed things up a bit with these monthly posts. You can find the details in this month's announcement post, along with the fact that...

• The payout from this post (aka the beneficiaries) is split equally between the three winners from @victoriabsb's September Hispanic #HPUD initiative, so @mayllerlys, @happyfrog420-new, and @hjrrodriguez will each get 33%.

 

I'm also keeping this as brief and to the point as possible, since my usual wall o' text posts have been a bit much to get through for some. I'm trying to find that balance between friendly and informative versus matter-of-fact and not-as-informative. 😄

 

So now for the rest of the basic details...

 

What are the rules to win prizes for HivePUD?

The requirements are:

• Your reputation must be above 39 and below 70.
• Your total Hive Power (before the 1st) must be more than 100 and less than 8000.
• You must power up at least 10 Hive on October 1st.
• You must write a post about your power up on October 1st with the tag #HivePUD (International) or #HPUD (Hispanic).

To be included in the winners list, you must meet all four requirements above. The order of the list (first place, second place, and so on) will be determined by the biggest PERCENTAGE of Hive powered up, not necessarily the most Hive powered up.

 

For more information, including the current list of prizes

Please check out the brief announcement post from earlier in the week, which includes info about the new drawing being offered as of last month to people who power up & post, but don't end up qualifying for the prize pool because they didn't meet the other requirements.

For more information about Power Up Day in general, check out July's Announcement post (soon to be replaced with a HivePUD FAQ).

 

Timeline Reminder

• Power up Hive on October 1st 2021
• Post about your power up on October 1st 2021
• Unofficial winners list will be posted October 3rd or 4th (allowing time to correct for errors/omissions)
• Official winners list will be posted on October 5th, after which sponsors will disperse prizes

[chrislybear]

@traciyork if I am correct I have seen you powered Up 11 HP to my account! Thank you so much ❤
I got a notification from Hive.Buzz that I powered up. So I was really suprised 😃

Again Thank you very much! ❤

Kind regards
Chris

[traciyork]

Yes I did (and as I was saying a short time ago to @epodcaster, I really need to figure out some kind of comment to drop afterwards, so people aren't confused by it. 😂). And you're very welcome - happy Hive Power Up Day! 😊

[chrislybear]

Thank you 😃
I use ecency on my phone so I was unable to see what happened. So i went on my PC to check things in peakd. 😊

[epodcaster]

Yes, it was an unexpected and wonderful surprise. I'm glad it's a dual benefit and as I mentioned before, I greatly appreciate the support growing in Hive. Cheers!
