The #smlchallenge Week Two is live and o weeeee are we so pumped to be able to bring you the Steemit Music League (SML) and the SML Challenge.
With eight (8) epic entries in Week One, we can't wait to see what is in store for Week Two.
The SML Challenge was created to provide an additional avenue for the musicians of Steemit who are chasing their dreams to be highlighted and earn some additional recognition, feedback, and rewards.
The Steemit Music League Challenge is part of the Steemit Music League (SML) which incorporates the following contests, leagues, and challenges:
The Steemit Music League will have a leaderboard that is fed by the points earned by Steemians in each particular contest, challenge, or league.
Points earned can be redeemed at the end of each month for the cryptocurrency POINTS if they choose to. If they choose to redeem their points for POINTS then their leaderboard score is reset to zero and then can begin the climb back to the top.
So if you are confident in your skills, you will be able to redeem additional cryptocurrency monthly and then still have a chance to build your way back to the final challenge and the trip the Las Vegas.
The top three of this leaderboard at the end of the first seasons of the Steemit Music League (December 31, 2017) will be part of a live music challenge.
The winner will get a 7-day paid (lodging at the Palms Place and travel) to Las Vegas.
That's right the winner of the Steemit Music League will get a vacation courtesy of us to Las Vegas.
What better way to celebrate your championship than in Vegas.
Not only that, the almighty @akrid leader of the Whaleshares movement has so graciously announced his/their support of the Steemit Music League Challenge.
From now on, every week of the #smlchallenge will offer Whaleshares as an additional reward to the participants. The top four winners will each receive 10 Whaleshares with the community Favorite receiving 10 Whaleshares as well.
Whaleshares are epic to get your Steemit posts on the Hot page and boost recognition, attention, and rewards for your Steemit activity.
