in #contest7 years ago

Steemitizens! Happy Sunday to you all and welcome to another episode of this contest that's targeted at making steem ecosystem as scalable as ever by encouraging Steemians to perform one of their vital responsibilities.

Donators so far: Witness @sircork

Inactive witnesses for this week

As of the time of writing this contest, the following witnesses are inactive in the first hundredth of the witness list, and so should not be voted for by the participants of the fifth episode. Voting any of the listed inactive witnesses attracts outright disqualification. Inactive witnesses for now include:

@bhuz, @wackou @therelwolf @roadscape @complexring @datasecuritynode @steempty @bitcoiner @witness.svk @bacchist @arhag @au1nethyb1 @theprophet0 @cyrano.witness @blueorgy @bayareacoins @kushed @bue @tdv.witness.

Let me clarify that the inactivity of some of this witnesses may be only temporal; it doesn't mean they are going to remain inactive indefinitely. If you find any of them worthy of your vote, you may have to be checking the witness list in order to add the witness to your list of favorite witnesses occasionally. However, for the purpose of this contest, they should not be voted.

As usual, we will announce the result of the fourth episode before we will announce the opening for the fifth episode and its guidelines.

Aim of the contest

The aim of this contest remains:

  • To increase witness voting consciousness of steemians as well their knowledge of the roles witnesses play in ensuring stable ecosystem.

  • This contest is targeted at ensuring continuous increase in the witness voting engagement rate occasionally published by @lukestokes. This is currently put at 30.

Good Job!!!!!

Well done

Witnesses influences our post to show up on steem blockchain, for individuals to see. The communuty chooses observers to go about as the system's piece makers and administration body. In overabundance, if there are no observers, there will be no steem.

Steem-blockchain requires a set of people to create blocks and uses a consensus mechanism called DPOS. The community elects 'witnesses' to act as the network's block producers and governance body. There're 20full-time witnesses, producing a block every 63-second round. A 21st-position is shared by the backup witnesses, who are scheduled proportionally to the amount of stake-weighted community approval they have.

A STEEM witness is a person who operates a witness server (which produces blocks), and publishes a price feed of STEEM/USD to the network which is how STEEM Dollars are always worth 1 US Dollar in STEEM (using the 7 day exchange).
