RE: Support the Artists! // Why Inktober on Steemit confused me

in #steemit5 years ago

There is definitely some mistake as the winners do receive a 40% vote or higher if they also retweet it (we don't do the tweeting) and aside from the first inktober post where the post rewards were forgotten to be placed in beneficiary but the liquids went out to the judges instead if you look at the rest of the inktober posts (hover over the post rewards) you will see that half is going to the judges and the other half is going towards an account meant for the end of the month. The judges are two art curators from ocd and 3 curators from CCC, so OCD is not profiting from this initiative.

Anyway, we will look into how those winners did not receive their upvote and make sure to fix it in one way or another. Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks a lot for the explanation. I'm really sorry, that I missed the fineprint.

I was expecting the whole thing being a way of onboarding new artists, because #inktober is getting a lot of impressions on twitter and the like. That's why I didn't understand, that you're not actively promoting the shared posts over there.

Also even if OCD isn't profiting from the thing, it just looks like you'd do (from the perspective of a potential new user). It's definitley confusing, that one artist from the post already received an upvote, while the other's did not. I definitley appreciate, that you look into this.
