The Challenge ends on Tuesday, July 18, 2017
The rules are very clear
If you are participating for a chance to win the SBD you must:
- Post a screenshot of your current Steemit header at this post.
- Commit to writing ONE quality post per day for at least 7 days.
>> I DO NOT recommend writing more than 2 posts per day during this challenge.<<
Share only ONE (1) post per day in your personal thread.
Minimum requirements: 1 featured photo or gif with citation, minimum 300 words, NO click bait titles!- Be responsive to people who leave comments on your post.
- You must have a minimum of 500 comments at the time of deadline.
Thoughtfully responding to comments left on your personal posts definitely count.
Bullshit spammy replies like "Nice Post" or "Follow me" will automatically disqualify you from this challenge.- Once you've reached all the minimum requirements (or got to the last day of the challenge) you will post a screenshot of your header within your personal thread at the gensis post.
Addendum from Day 1 Diary
I'd like to make it very clear that this is NOT a follow for follow campaign.
Another thing to note is that this is not a contest to pit one against another. It's not a popularity contest. ALL people who complete the challenge will have an equal distribution of the SBD reward pool. ALL successful participants will have their name in the randomizer for an equal chance at playing with 5,000 SP for one week. That being said, I don't really care how popular or unpopular you are. Do the work, finish the tasks, earn some dough.
There is no obligation to follow me or any of the challenge participants. The point is to find your own people and a comfy niche. If this helps you find that audience then it's accomplished a major task.
PRIZES
NOW 200 SBD is up for grabs!
This will be equally distributed among all participants who successfully finish the challenge. If only one person meets all the requirements, they will be awarded the entire thing! If no one finishes this challenge I keep the awards, return the donations, and will try again at a future date.
Oh yes, I am actually accepting donations to sweeten the prize pot.

The names of all successful participants will be put into the randomizer.
The first name on the list will be delegated 5,000 STEEM POWER for the week that I'm attending my son's bootcamp graduation (July 23-30). This is roughly half of my account strength!
Let's get Community Strong! 
I'm sharing only the title of the post.
Which one's have you selected to read and why?
What is it about a title that attracts you?
Please share your thoughts in comments so we can use this as a learning experience. Many of our participants are new to Steemit. Some have been active members for a long time, and quite a few are new-to-me. What I've found so far is they are all amazing in their own right and I highly encourage you, my wonderful and loyal friends, to check them out.
