Qurator Comment Contest Winners! (So many of them!)

in #dtube6 years ago (edited)


What do you know about the wonderful @qurator program on the STEEM Blockchain? Read on for information from my recent comment contest and see who won @steembasicincome shares just for chiming in.

I got 15 awesome steemers replying to my contest! This is the best result I have gotten in any of the contests I have run, so I am very happy with this result. Here is the original contest post with a ton of info about qurator, so please take a look:

Many of these replies turned into conversations and the best information from those interactions is below.

The best comments came from:

@iamjadeline
@masoom
@lucylin
@newageinv
@wonderwop
@dandays
@elsurtidor
@socalsteemit
@deathlyhorror
@hairyfairy
@sgbonus
@mariannewest
@wakeupkitty
@akomoajong
@ketcom

@iamjadeline gives me a compliment!

Are you part of the @qurator's main team?

@masoom asks

Does qurator upvote actifit posts? I

ANSWER: Yes, @qurator does support @actifit posts. Here are the rules for some various of the various dapps on the STEEM Blockchain

Qurator will not upvote posts with the following tags:
@steemhunt
@zappl
@dmania
@dlike
@parley
The tags for @musing and @actifit WILL receive a vote if the post has a minimum 250 written words.

If your post has 250 words they will support you. 249, they will not. There are ways online to check your word count.

@marinnewest has some of online words count checkers listed somewhere on her daily freewrite prompt post, or you can check with most word processing programs.

And another question from @masoom!

Can I write posts in my native language. Qurator approve them?

Yes you can. They are looking for other languages. But it is also good to translate - even using google translate. You will do better here that way.

But also go see @majes.tytyty about your posts and he will help you to figure out how to do better. Also - there might be some support for your a here already with other people from your place. Where are you from and what is the language?

@lucylin, ever the rebel

They refused me sometime ago.

ANSWER: Try, try again my outrageous friend!

@newageinv says

Great summary for those interested in getting involved. Now that Steem is so cheap, it is much easier to become a part of the community and take advantage of its many programs!

@wonderwop Signed up with my referral and got approved!

@wonderwop mostly writes short but awesome freewrites each day, so this is great news. His posts are so wonderful that he was recently featured on the daily qurator with his freewrite about cat poop! Yes, really.

@dandays chimed in on Christmas Day!

Great introduction here @fitinfun. Happy Birthday, Jesus!

@elsurtidor chimes in with the awesome new autovote I have been recently receiving!

Thank you so much for this.
This post has been found valuable and upvoted by El surtidor
This post got an extra 5 power for following us

ANSWER: Be sure to follow @elsurtidor to get nice upvotes in your next posts (hint, hint)

@socalsteemit supports those of us posting about Southern California

They seem to know what they are doing over on that blog :)

Qurator is so awesome! We joined a few months ago. I wish we had joined earlier. I think it's such a great initiative to help Steemians. Especially during this brutal bear market. We use the Qustodian bot as well. I just send a few Steem as credit and then it upvotes us automatically. Steem Basic Income is another awesome thing! We host contests for SBI as well.

@deathlyhorror is not sure his content would qualify

Sounds okay, but I would probably be rejected because I post Christian content.

ANSWER
But you are not posting anyway. What's up with that? You post great comments, and I think your posts would do well here.

@hairyfairy run the 77 Word So Short Story Contest I enter

I knew that @qurator pays off but have never sent 4 Steem. I always spent my Steem very quickly for something else (powering up or buying SBI shares as a reward for my contests participants). But as a New Year's resolution I should change my mind - pay qurator, write more often and still try to do my best. And hurry up and join in December - thank you for the the information about qurator's present.

@sgbonus Signed up!

They approved me! Thank you so much for sharing this with me! May our accounts grow. Happy Holidays!

I have been following wonderful posts about a trip to Guam @sgbonus recently took and one of these was also featured on the Daily Qurator!

https://steemit.com/qurator/@qurator/the-daily-qurator-472

@mariannewest is already a member of @qurator with some of her accounts

I am a member :) But I am not as good as you to take advantage of all the wonderful things @qurator is offering.

And Marianne left me my only zap comment! What’s up with that, my #dtubefamily777?

@wakeupkitty is new and juggling many balls here.

I wonder how you do it. Joining so many different "clubs", the writing, the contests, reading what others did write. No I do not join @qurator I already have a lack of time if it comes to writing.

ANSWER:
I have lists of things to do and work through them. I might not often get "done" but I try :)

@akomoajong had already joined as well

I just signed up for @qurator this month at 4 Steems, too bad it was a fews days before the price was reduced lol

I never knew about their referral program and how upvoting their posts really works. Thanks for educating me on that.

I think many users do not know about the referral program as I was referred a long with others but I guess the person never knew he could have benefited.

@ketcom started with a nice compliment and ended by getting his account approved!

@ketcom is certaining one to watch. He has great posts, and look at all of this great information and action! And he is posting with @partiko too. This guy’s got it going on!

Hi @fitinfun, first off I'll like to say you've done a wonderful work on your body which is not an easy thing to do. Kudos.

I read about qurator when I just joined Steemit but the best I could do then was just to follow them because I didn't have enough steem in my account to do much let alone subscribe to them or delegate steem to them and as time went by I forgot about them until I saw your post. Which I must confess was well detailed and brought out most if not all the information I needed.

For this I have done the following:

I registered with them with your referral in my memo.
I delegated 101.545 to them.
I voted @qurator as a witness.
I upvoted, resteemed and posted the comment you are currently reading.

If you check my blog you'll see that since October 1st 2018 I post minimum once a day, I joined Steemit in September 2018. I also forgot to add that @qurator and @qurator-tier-1-2 were added to my autovoter. Writing more than 250 words hasn't been a problem to me because I self target 300 words. I haven't had a word from them though so am still hoping I will be successful.

I am still evaluating the monthly subscription 1.6 Steem do you have a good ROI on it. Can you give me an idea of what you get from the subscription. Thanks.

ANSWER
Whew!
I need a smart person to tell me about the 1.6 steem subscription roi. I have been doing it so long that I just do it! Have you seen my posts about tweeting lately? Your stuff is so interesting and unique. I hope you will tweet daily in all your lists of things you are doing.

I did an analysis when I started long ago. We had different pricing but it was a very good move then. I am not sure now. The monthly price is now different than when I started (lower) as is the upvote of course. I should really go back and look again. On the list! Thank you for the nudge.

And Finally, here is the news @ketcom hoped to receive!

Pahm pahm pahm!!! Here is announcing the newest member of @qurator I hope. Lol. My registration has been accepted thanks to you.

Winners!

I decided to pick 9 winners instead of 4. These people are are posting regularly so the sbi will be put to good use.

My personal account @fitinfun sent 1 sbi share to:
@iamjadeline
@lucylin
@elsurtidor

My son’s account @bxlphabet sent 1 sbi share to:
@mariannewest
@wakeupkitty
@wonderwop

And my new @fitinfunfood account sent 1 sbi share to:
@socalsteemit
@sgbonus
@ketcom

In Conclusion

The sign up for 2 STEEM is over now, but @qurator still has a place for you. I know of no where else that your 4 STEEM will give you as much benefit, so be sure to send it if you post regular quality posts on the STEEM Blockchain!

It is that time of year when the fitness equipment is out and the diet books are being read. I lost "Half My Size" eight years ago by using natural methods, and you can too!

You got to me even before I gave you the news! Thank you so much for entering my contest and for putting me on your autovoter for fitinfun (I think). And big congrats on getting into qurator. You certainly deserve it @ketcom.

Lol, your 'I think' comment is funny. You can check all you post since 2 days ago. My upvotes come around the 15 minutes mark on every @fitinfun post.

Thank you so much @ketcom. This means the world to me. You are awesome and I have you on my list to add back I'm full but my other accounts are not.

Thanks my dear, you are doing a great job and worth the support of big whales so that you can impact more people.
