Greetings, Steemians!
The week of challenging yourself to take a little more time and care on comments has come to a close.
I hope during the last few days a some of you started a new, exciting habit. π
As many of you already know, I had a bit of a freakout when I first launched this contest. You can read about it HERE. And as I generally find out, there was no need to freak out. π
After spending the last several days immersed in y'all's comment sections, I realized, that I hadn't taken into account that some people would enter and simply not complete the challenge. Thus, when I saw SO MANY entering early on, I ... (as we've covered) freaked out. I still spent HOURS reading comments, and truth be told, I only really read a handful of blogs (the ones I was interested in).
I started to kinda fall in love with a lot of you. π And at the same time... kinda felt stalker-y. LOL! π I was literally listening in to your conversations, learning what you love and hate, seeing what makes you laugh and cry. I got to get to know a handful of you that really reached out and shared with others in the community. It was a great experience for me.
On to the rewards!
- Some who entered did NOT complete the challenge they stated, but DID complete something.
- Some DID complete the QUANTITY required but did NOT take extra time and make thoughtful comments.
- Some got REALLY close (I gave it to ya).
- Some went ABOVE and BEYOND and made new connections and gained new insights by reaching out more than they normally would.
Feel like you were paid incorrectly? Didn't receive an award and wonder why?
Feel free to ask. I took really good notes while going through everyone's comments, but could have missed something.
For real now. The money. π€

Here's a screenshot to prove I've successfully paid everyone out. Woohoo!
Thank you to everyone who entered, hung around the comment section, offered me words of support or just enjoyed from afar.
I'm feeling pretty good about my next contest...
But I'm open to suggestions. π Like... ANY KIND of suggestions. What do you think would be good? What do you think is missing still from Steemland? What types of games/contests/challenges do YOU like?
I really enjoy the interacting and giving back aspects of hosting contests. I'm hoping I'll be able to find the perfect nitch.
