Biggest Bestest 2018 SILVER GAW Yet!
3 level Dual Prizes, one for the "sponsor" and one for the "nominee". Anyone can be a Sponsor, but the nominees must be NEWER Steemians, (I am tentatively saying under lvl 50 Rep) and not a "known stacker" with a large hoard of PMs. The nominees will be passively vetted by the #SSG community, that means no objections to a nominee means they are qualified. I will do some checking, and hopefully the #SSG folks will as well.
1st Prize: Slabbed and Graded MS69 ASE (sponsor) and ASE or Aus. ROO (nominee)
2nd Prize: ASE or ROO (sponsor) and ASE or ROO (nominee)
3rd Prize: 90% "JUNK" (sponsor) and ASE or ROO (nominee)
As you may note, the Sponsor prizes are varied, but all nominee prizes are equivalent 1 ozT bullion coin, either ASE or Australian Kangaroo coins. I am also adding the stipulation that AT LEAST ONE WINNER shall be for a nominated Female New Stacker. If a top 3 is not a female nominee, I will add a 4th place but I expect there will be sufficient interest. We need more ladies in steemit and #TEAM-SSG! Heck, even our mascot is a Lady!
The winners will be decided by number of upvotes, tie breakers will be $ earned in the voting thread posts. SO BE GENEROUS!!! Stax will get all the SBD earned from this, including the voting category replies, and the main thread. Let's see if we can raise a lot of SBD for our Favorite HOT-BOT!
LET THE NOMINATIONS BEGIN! For relatively New Stackers with little to no "stacks".
Also open for questions, I suppose I need to spell a few things out still!
Once nominations are Closed, (7 days) I will make up a Voting Thread Post, and you must vote for your favorite(s) just like we did for the naming contest for Stax. She (Stax) will receive all SBD generated in Both Threads, this Nominating Post and the Voting Post. I am putting no string on what Stax and Phil do with the SBD, but I'd hope most of it goes to Permanent Power Ups. If some is used to round out an SP lease, that is up to Stax and Phil. I do not put strings on the things I give away, it just does not feel right. Phil Knows Best, he's doing a great job with Stax! ;)
3rd prize will be at least a "Junk" Silver Quarter and Dime, which by my reckoning adds up to 1/4 ozT of Silver. I will u that a bit, at least one more US Silver Coin will go in. What to do... ?!?
Here is part of "3rd Prize"
PS: Do it here, for practice, but I need a relatively short essay on why you picked your nominee, and why you think they deserve a Silver Ounce! These finished essays will be required and posted on the Voting Post.
There will be at least ONE New Female Stacker in the winner's column, remember that!
Total Prizes will be at least 5.25 ozT of SILVER Coins! ;)
