Win 100 to 10,000 SP Delegation for a Week or More in My Witness Pay-It-Forward Initiative
That's right, you can win up to 10,000 SP for a week. I'm going on a trip for a week at the end of April. A lucky person might get a huge delegation for that week only.
Source
I will be delegating smaller amounts of 100, 200, 500, and 1000 SP for a week or longer. There is no guarantee you will get any amount of delegation by applying.
Applying
To apply, write up 250 words or more to describe why you should get the delegation. Tell me what you will do with the delegation, what you usually vote for, what topics you like to support, things like that.
You can also nominate someone else and describe why they should get the delegation.
I will be delegating chunks of 100 to 1000 SP for various lengths of time. The 10,000 SP delegation is a possibility if I like what you have to say and what you vote for. I'm not going to bias the applications by telling you what I want to hear ;)

It will help me support content that I like to read or that ones that are amazing and do not recieve much awareness . I wan to use the delegation to help minnows grow and support their projects . I usually upvote content based on different knowledge being spread and any news stories that I don’t know about
I would gladly appreciate any delegations as this puts me in a better position to support various authors and projects across the platform. However, instead of talking about myself and why I would love to get a chunk of your Steem Power, I'd rather talk about the @asapers and nominate this project.
I am the benefactor of the @asapers and I launched this project in an attempt to pay-it-forward and to support our beloved community and our newcomers.
The official @asapers account sits at about ~400 Steem Power as of now, and our first goal is to reach 500 Steem Power so we can curate in a better way. The @asapers is a manual curation group that shares the rewards from each issue with the featured authors.
That being said, even though this would be a delegation for a limited time, I bet that the extra SP would help us serve the community even better.
Personally, I'm at ~1000 Steem Power right now and I delegate all of that to the @asapers and to the team members. All Steem Power I'm able to generate goes towards this project directly or indirectly by delegating to the official account or to the team members. The spirit, mindset and goal is to spread inspiration, motivation and encouragement across the community, to grow individually and help others to grow simultaneously.
If you'd rather delegate to an individual instead of a project or a team, I'd recommend @insideoutlet, @lynncoyle1 and @mirrors. They would definitely use the extra Steem Power for great things. (All of them are associated with the @asapers.)
In case you'd be interested in others, outside of the @asapers, I'd recommend @davemccoy or any of his projects.
Cheers and thanks for the opportunity!
Same here. @asapers is doing a great job. And I know that @lynncoyle1, @insideoutlet and @mirrors would definitely put that delegation to the best use possible!
Thanks for your generousity, @hitmeasap. It’s people like you and Asher that make SteemIt a better place.
Thank you @simplymike!
I completely agree :)
It's a pleasure and I feel honored to be mentioned side by side with someone as awesome as @abh12345. Thank you very much!
You’re welcome. And don’t put yourself down. You belong to be mentioned side by side with Asher. You both put the community before your personal gains, which is very admirable.
Same! :D
I of course, am voting for @asapers as well! @hitmeasap has been so generous delegating to me (as @abh12345 has also!), and he selflessly promotes the group and it's ideal of paying it forward. He always wants to give more, but has to wait to earn it because he's already given away everything he has. This man, in my humble opinion, certainly deserves your delegation @krnel and he will use your generosity to do more great things for this platform!
i agree!!!! @insideoutlet - all the way!!! :) give her community the BOOST it needs :)
not just the 10,000 delegation while you're on vacation...
she would be a prime candidate for some of those smaller 1,000 delegations when you return as well!!!! :)
Love your confidence in me. 😁💜😁
yesssss you so deserve it!!! I hope you get it!!!!
@krnel I "third" the motion for @asapers and then individuals that @hitmeasap mentioned (excluding myself)... They are a valuable resource for a group of newbies and minnows as they pay attention with both upvotes and mentions in their daily articles. I have found that many of our #newbieresteemday people automatically transition also to @asapers as soon as they "graduate" and feel no longer like a newbie. Its a great organization that is just building, so any notice to them is definitely appreciated!
If possible, longer term support of even smaller amounts is even better as they could use your position within the platform as a way to get some credibility and access to the bigger steemians! :)
I gave a newbie nickel to this post because I think it deserves to be seen to maximize its exposure to @krnel
Voting this one up as I appreciate @hitmeasap and @asapers
Thank you Asher! :)
Hmmm. How did i miss this romance! Much obliged @hitmeasap, for the recommendation. Truth to say, barring the limited SP, @asapers could certainly accomplish much.
Dear @krnel,
I would like to nominate @brisby. She is a fellow Freewriter I met when @mariannewest started the daily Freewrite prompt over 176 days ago.
The Freewrite community has grown into a loving, happy place and now has their own Blog @freewritehouse.
With the growth of any community, it needs people to help it grow. This is where @Brisby comes in. She helps organize all the other helpers to make the Freewrite community the place to be. She delivers prompts, helps organize the other prompt delivery helpers by making spreadsheets, answering any questions they might have and all in all be the wonderful giving person she is. She keeps things running as smooth as she can. She is always there to jump in to help in any way she can.
She reads all freewrite stories (@brisby says she doesn't read all........so let's compromise and say she reads 90% of ALL the Freewriter stories), comments on all Freewrite posts. Making the Freewrite community the place to be for new Steemians.
She is not at 500 SP yet. She votes as much as she can on all the post she reads. The Freewrite Community is filled with a lot of new red fish Steemians. Somedays @brisby is the only one to stop and vote on their story but sometimes, many times that one vote and comment gives a person hope and they write again and again. In the end, they too become a driving force in the Steemit community all because of comments @brisby has left.
This might sound a bit too good to be true but I assure you it is not. If not for @brisby and people like her I would have never stayed on Steemit. When you are new here sometimes all it takes is that one person to show you encouragement which in turns gives you hope that in time you might get your posts read and make something of yourself here on Steemit.
Thank you for listening and I hope you do consider @brisby. You would be helping more people by delegating to her then you could ever imagine.
~@snook revised 1:31 pm CST to hit the 250-word requirement.....
I couldn't agree with this nomination more. @brisby routinely uses up too much of her voting power because she wants to support everyone. Nobody offers more encouragement to the freewrite community than she does and she never expects anything in return. This is a lovely gesture @snook! And good luck @brisby!
Thank you, Omra! You have brought such a smile to my face (especially since I've not followed someones advice about watching my voting power...)! 💜👊 And thank you again, for setting up the @Steemkeepers page and all of the support that you've given to the Freewrite Community!
Snook, thank you! (You had me blushing brighter than warning beacon reading what you wrote!) You are an absolute sweetheart for nominating me for the delegation when there are many who do so much within our group! 😘 Thank you for saying so many wonderful things and for being you! 🤗 From the start, you've been one of the driving forces in showing your love for the group!
I agree wholeheartedly about our Freewriting Community being filled with fantastic and giving people and now we're able to come together even more to support each other and anyone who just wants to come in and have some fun in the @Freewritehouse!
hehehehe poor @brisby you just proved why you would get the delegation for all to see. You went through each comment and pointed out what everyone else does and never said a thing about yourself.
Like how much time you spend making sure everyone feels wanted and needed and not forgotten, so much so that you don't always have time to write your own posts which is why you are not at 500 SP yet. Again another selfless act you do without thinking or caring about yourself.
Yes, it does take a Villiage and we have all done as you have said in your comments but sometimes @brisby it's time for great things to maybe happen to you too. That would be up to @krnel to decide though.
As you always do you think of others and never yourself. So do me a big favor and think of it as a lottery ticket and let yourself dream for a night on all the good you would do if you even got a 500 delegation to use for a week. How happy you could make all the people you come into to contact with.
You work full time and are a Mom of 2 beautiful girls and are always giving. Let someone try and give you a gift and try and not feel guilty about it, please.
It's okay for good things to happen to you too.
Love You my wonderful , sweet, always thinking of others, beautiful friend!
You've turned me into a puddle of thankful goo here, Snook! Love you, seriously. Hugs!!!
Love You!
@brisby is a hard working curator and encourager who spends a lot of time trying to make Steemit the kind of community that we all want for it to be. If I were going away for a while and was looking for a community minded person to use my SP to help fellow Steemians and work to improve the image Of Steemit and build lifetime relationships, then I could find no better or more deserving choice than @brisby.
Thank you, Deacon! The level of respect in what you wrote means so much to me! 💙 I'm grateful to have found a friend like you here! You've been there all along as well, commenting and supporting so many writers as they join the group so, another huge thanks to you!!
Yes! Excellent idea, @snook! @brisby brings so much happiness, positivity and encouragement to the freewriting community (a group of people racking their brains and bringing awesome, original content to Steemit) <3 She really deserves such a delegation, I've seen few people on here who work as hard as @brisby!
Honeydue, thank you! You've been so terrific in helping out the freewriting community with the time you take to make deliveries and your comments! I truly appreciate how much time this takes and am so grateful to be able to work with you! 🤗 You're right, our group is awesome!
Owwww @brisby, you're too sweet! <3 I feel grateful, too, to be welcomed into such a lovely family!
YES! @brisby has the kind of genuine, encouracing comments and interactions that make me feel appreciated and "Heard" through my posts. It is truly awesome. I've also seen her comments on others and know that she looks for ways to encourage everyone on a regular basis!
Thank you, Byn! You're making me get all sappy here... You are a hardworking badass lady who deserves so much good in this life! Thank you for how much you've supported the freewriters as well, with encouragements, prompt deliveries, your @Freewritehouse Favorites posts, and more. And your comments? You have been there for so many when they need an understanding reader. You've not been one to shy away from uncomfortable themes and your responses are so real and true to who you are!💓
brisby is fantastic and cares so much about everyone she comes in contact with. So deserving!!!
This from the woman who I'm CERTAIN doesn't sleep. 😁 Thank you so much, Marianne! Your daily exercise has grown into this wonderful group and the HUGE amount of effort that you've put into, I'm just going to say EVERYTHING in the freewrite here, is immeasurable! 💗
I also want to nominate @brisby for this delegation. She tirelessly curates, votes and comments on her fellow Steemian's posts. She always leaves a thoughtful comment and brings encouragement wherever she lands.
Brisby lends a lot of her time to the freewrite group by assisting with the organization and execution of the new freewritehouse page and the whole Steemit community benefits as new writers are encouraged by her comments, votes and support.
Janelle, thank you! You've done so much in supporting the Freewriters that I can't properly list all of it! You nominated @mariannewest for a delegation so that she could pass it on to all of the struggling writers, you give fantastic advice and commentary to what others have written (encouraging people to add more to their stories and to keep on writing), you've helped so many with sharing your struggles and triumphs, writing for the Freewrite House, and more. It took all of us together to come as far as we have and YOU have always been one of the backbones in our community!
@brisby your sweet comment touches my heart deeply. I love this community we have all worked as a team to build. I saw how far reaching @mariannewest vision could be and it is! There is so much talent and selflessness within the freewriters. I am truly humbled by your support, thank you. hugs!
Wonderful idea, @snook, @brisby is that type of person that actually cares for the community, someone who can be trusted to do something good with some added SP!
You know, I just realized that I never told you how much I like your avatar! I am touched to have your trust Marie-Jay! Thank you for donating your time to helping encourage everyone in our freewriting community! 💕
Hello @krnel. This was something that I was actively searching for a while now.
As a child, I grew up listening to stories. Stories my grandparent told me, fairy tales that my parents told me before putting me to bed. These stories built my world. They let me dream. They let me grow up with a strong creative mind which is so imaginative that I sometimes get lost in the tales playing out in my mind.
Stories defined me. They made the person I am today. Made me realize of the magic in it, the evil that is prevalent around you, the heroes that live amongst us and tales of friendship and love.
Years later, nothing makes my heart flutter more than holding a book in my hand that promises me a world that I can enter but with no want of return.
Kids needs to hear stories, teens have to dream of the stories and we, adults have to live out the stories that are our life.
I see a lot of fiction in here on Steemit, that I enjoy, I drool over but these posts, they haven't received any due that they deserve.
Gems. Of the priceless type.
Yet, payout at the end of the seven day period ends up being in cents. Most of these users ends up leaving the site after few months of these.
I always thought, I'd accumulate enough SP a day to make a difference, that I'd sit down and spend hours to curate such posts. But after some calculations I realized that it might take forever if I had to wait it out that way.
Your hard earned SP will be touching someone's life, motivating them to work harder, motivating them to work better and send out top class reading material onto this block chain. All these unrecognized people now have a reason to write better.
You are creating an author who might tomorrow end up winning a top literature award, just because you helped develop their writing skill.
I want to help my fellow writers. I want to make fiction a cozy place here on Steemit.
I follow you and agreed with you. I am a fiction writer, and is tought to find support. Thanks for your clever thinking.
Keep at it. Keep dreaming. Write even more :)
I try, but you know that you do not always have inspiration. Sometimes, like in these last days, the muse goes on vacation.
Maybe a good time for you too to go on a vacation so that there is no time being wasted :P
Thank you for providing an opportunity for others to benefit from your investment in Steemit. This will certainly provide a significant improvement to many different Steemians in the area of post rewards. I am sincerely hopeful that you are able to find an individual or community that will maximize your gift.
I would like to suggest/nominate @qurator and the Qurator Project in general as a fitting recipient of your generosity. The organization has worked tirelessly to help plebeian Steemians mature and develop their content, network, and accounts on the Steem blockchain. I have certainly benefitted from not only their support of my posts (which I believe are quite good), but also from their support on technical questions, best available resources, tips & tricks in formatting, etc.
Recently, the Qurator Project has had to change some of their membership criteria because of sagging Steem values and low returns on its members' upvote support. They have responded gallantly with infusions of steem from their top members to maintain equilibrium, but have exhausted their options. As a result, many of the most fragile and inexperienced Steemians that would like to join this community will not be able to afford to do so.
I believe that your gift may be able to help stem the tide and create a better transition for these vulnerable bloggers that want to participate in the Qurator Project. I would like to add that I will not personally benefit in any way should you choose to allocate some SP to @qurator at least not financially. I am a member and a true believer in their community because unlike many of these "developmental community groups", the Qurator Project actually gets results for aspiring minnows.
Thanks in advance for your attention and I wish you a wonderful, relaxing vacation. Hopefully, you will return refreshed and re-energized for your Steemit related pursuits and others. All the best.
Thank you so much for nominating us @energyaddict22
When we saw the comment we immediately brainstormed how we could use the extra SP. With some extra Steem Power we will direct some larger upvotes to the minnows who really need it. All those who have 100SP or less. We have about 1300 members and we know a lot of them are minnows that could use the extra help.
Great initiative @krnel seems like you just got another witness vote. We love seeing steemians selflessly helping each other out. =)
What an awesome idea @energyaddict22!! It would certainly help their current situation, wouldn't it?! And they totally deserve it!
I think it might be a timely solution for them and YES, they definitely deserve it. Thanks for your support Lynne.
You are very welcome!
hey @krnel, cool idea!! here's my entry. Thanks!
And this one too :)
awww thanks @abh12345 :D! <3
My pleasure and good luck! :D
Well done guys! :D
