Thank you for this update on Vibes. I was very saddened to learn that a contest that showcased Hive musicians and singers has fallen victim to corruption.
I appreciate that I was allowed to win honestly. Personally, I would like to have a list of those involved in the bribes, because as a Curator I have doubts about some users. I know that other users, like me, were transparent and honest in Vibes, but it is not clear to me who was involved in the bribes. Who paid to win in Vibes?
I would also like to mention that during many rounds, I saw how @guitarmcy participated with excellent entries and never received first place. It is a shame that just when he wins, he does not have access to the prize because of what happened.
I hope that justice prevails and that music on Hive can recover from this huge setback.
Thank you very much @eugelys for the mention. As you rightly mention, just when I win first place, they cancel the contest and don't recognize any of the winners. That worries me, but I'm more worried about how music has been affected within Hive.
If I had to be totally sincere, the fact that Jessica Blossom (not tagging her here, obviously) was always in that top 6 was really suspicious to me, and now I understand why 🙄
I know I play some hard-listening alternative music, but it was so frustrating to see that some very low quality performances passed through... I thought it was just a matter of music taste, but now I'm suspicious it was all just rigged from the start
