Congratulations to all participants as we close the first
Community Engagement Challenge!
This has been one of the more challenging things I've ever done on Steemit but those reflections are being saved for the next post. This one is to celebrate!

42 people joined | 25 made it to the winners' circle
6 people were so close that it hurts my heart excluding them from the prize pool but this was not a challenge pitting one person against another. This was a challenge against one's self.
In a nutshell, every participant had a total of 10 days to:
- Write 7 posts with a minimum of 300 words, at least one cited picture, and no click bait titles.
- Write 500 comments, including responses on their blog, the usual interaction, and GIF WARS.
This was not a popularity contest, nor was it exclusive in any way. Brand new minnows to seasoned Steemians entered and pushed themselves to reach a common goal.
CONGRATULATIONS
