The Minnows Accelerator Project (MAP) now has over 150 members, with some 120 of them in the Discord chatroom.
The fundamental aim of MAP remains the same: to promote the best new quality content creators across Steemit.
As numbers have grown, so we would like to streamline the joining process. This means prospective new members will not need to wait for all six authors to join our "Six of the Best" contests, rather they can start to promote their work as soon as they have been invited to join.
New Rules for New MAPsters
Please express your interest to join with a comment in the most recent Signup page - this can always be found as a link on the @accelerator profile page. If you have been referred to MAP by an existing Member, please include their referral within your comment.
If accepted, the New MAPster will be informed with a message and a link to the private Discord chatroom.
The new member is given the title of "New MAPster". This gives the person the ability to post links to their most recent posts within a dedicated channel. All members will vote internally on their favourite posts and as soon as there are six good ones they will be combined into a new-look "Six of the Best" article. This means that every article has already been through a quality curated content process.
Once a New MAPster has had a post included within a "Six of the Best" contest, then they will be upgraded to Full Member and can promote their work in the general posting channel. They will then be eligible to be included in out general "Tales from the MAP Room" curated posts articles.
I hope this is a simple as possible!
If you do not get invited to The MAP Room, then please look at the @accelerator feed to get an idea of the kind of quality posts we look for. Of course, not every post is a gem, but we do look for blogs that are consistently interesting. As a sign of good faith, every signup request will be given a small upvote once we have read the blog.
A brand new Signup page will be published shortly, with a reference to these new rules.
See you in The MAP Room!
The Minnows Accelerator Project was created, and is managed, by @rycharde. Please consider voting for me as witness. Thank you.
