There we go. If you have time, check them out and see what you think. And if you like any, let the author know about it by leaving a great comment!

Comments

Great comments this week! As usual, everyone who left at least two comments on other poems for every poem they posted get 10 Ecency POINTS. Also the person for posted the most comments and a random commenter both get 50 POINTS. This week those are @lecumberre and @noodlypanda.

I sent out the POINTS, but unfortunately due to the hard fork, Ecency has been having a lot of problems this week and your POINTS may not show up for a few hours. If you don’t get them within a few days, let me know and I will resend them.

Winner of Hive SBI and PIMP

Remember, only people who gave two comments for every poem they posted are eligible for this contest. The only exception is that new poets are giving a pass their first week here.

Excluding myself, that puts 13 people in the running for HIVE SBI and 8 people in the running for PIMP tokens.

I threw you guys into a random picker…

and the winner is…

For Hive SBI:

@tegoshei - 3 SBI
@noodlypanda - 2 SBI
@joseitosanchezs - 2 SBI
@shohana1 - 2 SBI
@natalialove - 1 SBI

For PIMP tokens:

@shohana1 - 50 PIMP
@amiegeoffrey - 50 PIMP
@joseitosanchezs - 50 PIMP
@tegoshei - 50 PIMP
@dxworks - 50 PIMP

Congratulations!

(if you aren’t sure what SBI is, it’s kind of lifetime payment system. You can read about it here)

And thank you all for your wonderful poems!

Next Week ~ Next Prize

Next week will be the same reward — shares of Hive SBI and PIMP. For PIMP, you must use the #pimp tag. For both SBI and PIMP, you must comment at least twice for every poem you post.

The exact amount of Hive SBI depends on how many poets submit poems for the week.

0–9 poets - 1 SBI
10–19 poets - 5 SBI (split 2–2–1)
20–49 poets - 10 SBI (split 3–2–2–2–1)

(Note, these numbers don’t include @moeknows or myself.)

So if you want a chance for Hive SBI, go write a poem! If you want a chance for a lot of Hive SBI, go recruit others (and write a poem)! Spread the word, upvote and share this post to make it more visible, contact poet buddies on Discord and try to talk them into joining our group.

Just remember the rules:

Comment on two other poems for every one that you post
Make it a good comment (not just “great poem!”)
If you offer criticism, keep it gentle and polite and remember the golden rule of criticism: say at least two positive things for every one thing you criticize.

Anyone caught breaking these rules will not be eligible for the reward.

I’m looking forward to reading everyone’s new poem in this next week.

(Note: If you’d like to donate anything for the contest, such as Hive Engine tokens or Hive, please get in touch with me. Look for me as dbooster#6252 on Discord.)
