Contest #2—Win a Free Ticket to SteemFest 2017 at Lisbon!

in #steemfest7 years ago

This is the second contest where I'm giving away a ticket to SteemFest. Our global conference for me was one of the most defining moments on this platform. @fatpandadesign won the last contest with @roxane, @karensuestudios and @acromott as the runner-ups.

Steemit is about giving and without people's generosity, none of this would have been possible. Do you know someone who has always been supporting your blog and bumped up your post by another couple of cents? Have they benefitted the community in any manner? Maybe they are a good friend, or maybe someone you met through Steemit!

As we all know, @steemfest 2 is coming up and some people are craving to join this great event but unfortunately do not have the sufficient funds to attend.

This is your chance to give something back to the community! I've been meaning to give something back to the person who has been always supportive of the Steemit community. Do you know someone who has been a great participant in the community or are you someone who deserves an amazing week in Lisbon during SteemFest?

Keep reading because I am sponsoring one SteemFest 2017 Minnow Ticket to the winner.

Minnow tickets currently cost as much as $264.40 or € 222.22 or about 296 SBD.

Contest #2 Participation Rules:

  1. You can nominate yourself or be nominated by someone else.
  2. To participate, tell me in a creative way why you think you deserve to win a free ticket to SteemFest 2017 in a new post or in the comments below.
  3. You can create art, music, comments, video-vlog on Youtube or Viewly or anything else you can think of to this effect. If you write a new post, be sure to link it in a comment on this post.
  4. Feel free to mention if you made any contributions to the community! It will add some weight to your response.
  5. If you nominate someone, please inform them of the rules and have them take a look at this post to avoid missing out on it! A few nominated folks missed out on participation as they never saw the post.
  6. I will manually pick a winner. You can be as creative as you like-the more the better-(vlogs etc)
  7. Winner has to show up for SteemFest 2017 in order to collect/redeem the ticket and participate in our global conference.

Winner will be announced after 1 week. The winner can collect the sponsored ticket at the registration desk at SteemFest. This means that you have to fund the trip yourself, but the entry to SteemFest is completely free! You save $264.40 on ticket cost at the very least.

SteemFest is going to be packed with some of the coolest members of our community. @roelandp has put in a great effort towards organizing this incredible event and to support him Firepower Crew will be there as well. Win the ticket and come join us all for a great party with 300 people from across the globe! See you there!

Hey @firepower! Thank you for this opportunity to send one of our own to Steemfest.

I can think of no better representative for the minnows of Steemit than the founder of @newsteem in our Editor In Chief - @inquiringtimes!

Please see my nomination post HERE which goes into much detail as to why I feel like he ought to be over there to report back to the rest of us on all the events that take place.

Thanks for your consideration! Have a wonderful day!

@inquiringtimes has my full and unconditional support and well deserves a chance to go to steemfest. I fully support this nomination!

And now I have to commit the funds from this comment to @inquiringtimes potential travel fund as well as the funds from the nomination post! Watch out inquiring, your hotel fund is growing. hahaha

Thanks for the vote of confidence in our friend! I really hope this works out for him!!

I'll send some SBD too. I'm prepared to put my SBD where my vote is. He'll need the financial support.

Glad to see you are still working hard to support the minnows and lift up the community in general. Your work does not go unappreciated! Wishing you the best! -Dan

@inquiringtimes has my vote too for the reasons clearly articulated by other posters. But, for me personally: a paid research job well done, embodying a sense of personal improvement aligned with improving the world. Steemian minnows like @inquiringtimes are the future we need. That future needs to be at SteemFest.

Wow. This... all of this...

embodying a sense of personal improvement aligned with improving the world. Steemian minnows like @inquiringtimes are the future we need. That future needs to be at SteemFest.

This is a great comment @eturnerx! I love it!

Truly creative work behind the scenes and always an inspiration!
Of course @inquiringtimes should go to Lisbon!

@inquiringtimes has #thealliance support as well. He is extremely helpful to anyone willing and isn't afraid to ask for help. Model Steempeep.

I also agree to this and fully support the nomination of @inquiringtimes. He totally deserves this.

I support the nomination!

Excellent nomination, @inquiringtimes is definitely an up and comer on steemit and I think he would do some great reporting while there and bring back some wonderful insights that could really benefit the community!

If there is anyone who deserves this it's @inquiringtimes!

∞§∞TO SteemFinity and Beyond∞§∞

I nominate @LifeMovedBySteem.

She's risked it all for Steemit.
She quit her job folding laundry. She added all her savings.
She's scraping to make it as a full time urban homesteader.

We eat from our garden and I keep a side job.
Our hope is to never have to power down again.

She's on a mission to find happiness, not through money, but through adding to the world through nature, education, and love.

@Lifemovedbysteem would represent the creative homesteading community. Homesteading and gardening is a huge part of Steemit.

Her goal is to change people's paradigms and lives. She wants to show people with small areas how they can garden and find freedom with food.

@firepower, if you could see the smiles, dancing, and joy that jumps through our little home when Ren's posts do well you would be amazed.

Steemit represents freedom to live a full life. She's finally living her creative passion. This is huge. I know if she has a chance to share her vision it will change lives.

I haven't shown her this post, but she's talks about Steemfest a lot and dreams of going one year.
I think she should go now. She deserves it!

If @lifemovedbysteem wins the ticket, she will be at SteemFest. I can't imagine a more genuine, authentic, candidate.

Thank you @firepower.
Steemit has been a huge positive shift in our life and we're working to give back to the community.

OMGSH! I hope she wins! Would see her! You should go to @happymoneyman you are such an awesome spirit too! :)

Awww thanks for your support @karensuestudios.

I have a prior engagement unfortunately.
I WILL be at next years event.

If Ren wins she will be so excited to meet you guys and hang out. ahhhhh. I wish I was going.
So nice of you to support. Congrats on winning your tickets too!

You guys are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

awww :) good luck!

Thank you so much @karensuestudios! I would love to attend with you, it would be an awesome way to meet :) Thank you for your support!

yes!!! We are teaching an acroyoga class there too :) eekk! you'll have to join us!

That sounds so fun! I would love to! It is the prettiest yoga to look at I think.

heheh :) So much fun!

@lifemovedbysteem would be an incredible asset to steemfest.
She is so full of energy and passion, not only for Steemit, but for the people here.
Her motivation is love of homesteading and being her own boss, supplying for the family needs through their own means. @lifemovedbysteem is a huge asset to this platform and would be a wonderful contributor at Steemfest, given the chance.

Awesome contest bro i have no thats much money otherwise i will join. Sorry

just Chill and Keep Sharing Love !❤️

Agree with you!

@lifemovedbysteem would be an incredible asset to steemfest 2017!!

She is so full of energy and passion, not only for Steemit, but for the people here.
Her motivation is love of homesteading and being her own boss, supplying for the family needs through their own means. Go check her blog and you will be impressed by the creativity she possesses.
@lifemovedbysteem is a already a huge asset to this platform and would be a wonderful contributor at Steemfest in Lisbon!!
Thank you @firepower for this generous initiative!!

Awesome, I can't travel right now, but if I could I would love to enter.

I would like to nominate the one and only @rossenpavlov!
@firepower, please check the video post I created on the topic.

Here is a list of the reasons why I think that he deserves a reward for his hard work:

  • He created "Steemit Bulgaria" facebook group, to unite the steemit community in Bulgaria.
  • Then, he spent dozens of hours to translate the Steemit FAQ in Bulgarian, to give an idea to the newcomers what the platform is all about. This gives a good start to everyone, which then is visible in their posts, as they start to follow etiquette, provide image sources, etc.
  • He is super generous! He deligated 2000 Steem Power to the active and interesting authors in his list. Link to his announcement.
  • When the steem price jumped dramatically, he sent me $100 worth of steem, which brought me back to the platform.

  • He felt the potential of steemit from the beginning. He never makes a compromise when it comes to original content and whatever he posts has great value. The topics he covers are related to the crypto world, the actual issues that occur in steemit, such as people who do not get that an upvote should be deserved with quality content, rather with "please follow and upvote me". Other topics are science, music, environment issues and more. He makes super funny memes, mostly related to steemit.

    Thanks to him I realized that the potential in the platform is not in the income, but rather in the motivation to develop my potential to the fullest.

    I think he deserves to visit the SteemFest, as apart from his hard work he will contribute even more when he gets back by sharing what he learned.

    All the best!
    Gabchik~

Good luck @rossenpavlov !
I support you.

Here is a link to the Facebook group - Steemit Bulgaria
I heard about it for the first time today from you @gabchik. Thanks.

I'll most likely skip this year's Steemfest but maybe will meet some of you at OpenFest...

btw. @rossenpavlov, what are your plans for SteemFest, are you going to join the hackaton ? Will you stay for the Websummit that starts at its end ?

Thanks for sharing about OpenFest. I think I will join it :)

You are welcome :) OpenFest is always fun.

Contest time again! I still lack funds for the ticket after gathering enough Steem for the travel and accommodation. I have written my contest entry several months ago. The only addition i would have now is that i have recently became member of @sndbox and I’m aiming to learn more about impactful crypto projects in real world, for I will strive to create one under the banner of @sndbox when my studies will be over.

May the best contender wins:).

We're in the same situation, friend!

Just recently bought my plane ticket and airbnb with my SO. I do have hypothetically enough SP to power down for the ticket. As i feel going to Steemfest will worth the ROI of the the powered down Steem.

You gotta be there bro. We owe each other a frisbee match.

No worries buddy! I will make it work:)
Speaking about the airbnb, would there still be a place for me?:) (Also depends who SO is:D I have no idea)

SO = Significant Other, Me Amore

hahaha. If you dont mind couchsurfing. I may try to contact the host to see if he is okay with it.

I totally dont mind, thats why I asked. If you guys dont mind of course:)

Cool! I've contacted with my airbnb host. fingers crossed, hopefully we'll get updates soon.

This is an amazing oppurtunity
