What's up Scorum?

I am happily moving towards summer vacation, just a few more days of work before the start of the big trip. Things are getting kinda busy and hot over here, but I can already smell the end of that tough season.

Hopefully all of you can find some time in between our hustle to relax and to catch a breath, some moments were you will be able t just close your eyes and let your mind wander up to the sky and beyond. And then to come back and join our supportive community in creating some more interesting content from the exciting worl of the sports.

Today is Thursday and that means I am looking out for another Scorum user which I can support and assist with my Scorum Patronage project. But I will leave it to the Scorum family to choose which user should take a turn this week.

All you need to do is to get down into the comment section and nominate a Scorum user who you think is worth of a full week of support, on Sunday I will then coose the nominee who got the most nominations.

My job won't be finish yet, since from there I will accompany the chosen user for a total of seven days to read their articles and to support them with my upvotes. Which will hopefully help to bring some more attention to their profiles and to encourage them to continue writing quality sport blogs.

I will not only upvote the winner's posts, but also give out a big vote for the comment which nominated this round's winner first. In addition I will also throw in some more votes for those comments which explain why a certain nominee will be a great choice and why he/she needs my assistance. Hopefully this will finally lure more of you into joining the nomination round.

And don't forget, it doesn't have to be a new user!

Nominations for WEEK 32

Let's start the thirty second round of Scorum Patronage in 2019. The question I usually ask is pretty easy and straightforward:

Which user here at Scorum deserves a little attention and should be supported by me for a week?

I want you to suggest Scorum users who need a little boost. I am not only thinking of new members of our community but also of writers who have been around for a while and who are still struggling getting attention for their work.

I don't care about the size of the Scorum wallet, but let's rather have a look on everybody's usual post rewards. To be eligible for winning a week of Scorum Patronage support the average post reward of the last 10 articles shouldn't be higher than 15 SCR. I am not going to be to strict about this figure, but please consider that the idea behind Scorum Patronage is to support users who don't usually get a high reward for their articles.

However, if there is a user who gets more than 15 SCR in average, but who you feel is doing a great job here on the Scorum platform, please feel free to nominate them anyways. Eventually I will check through all the nominees and accept all candidates who I think are worth of a week of Scorum Patronage.

I will then pick the candidate with the most nominations and accompany him/her for one week. If there is no leader in the nominations, I will select the one who has less SP in his or her wallet.

The blog of the user chosen by the community will be visited by me daily in the coming week and I will upvote one article per day with up to 100% of my voting power, according to length and quality of the post. Hopefully this will generate some more attention and other users will start reading those articles too.

A few more things

  • You can nominate every writer who doesn't usually get a high post reward. As written above let's first consider users who's last 10 articles get an average of not more than 15 SCR. And to motivate everyone to join the nomination round I am planning on upvoting comments, which tell me why you are thinking that a particular user deserves being supported by me. And in addition, the comment which nominates this round’s pick FIRST, will get a another big upvote from me
  • And I also need the nominees to be writing in a language I can understand, this will be in English or if you are really cool also in German. Unfortunately other languages can't be considered.
  • To avoid that those articles only consist of a few pictures and link but no substantial content I explicitly reserve the right to reduce the value of my upvote. I want to encourage everyone to stick to level of quality which we all want to see here at Scorum
  • Since the question came up before: YES, you can also nominate the same user as someone before you. As more nominations somebody get as more likely is the chance this user will be on top at the end.
  • It would be great to see the names of writers whose post don't usually get much attention and aren't visited so much. I know there are many outside who really try to bring something to Scorum but who aren't so successful yet. After starting it can be challenging and it might not feel very encouraging, when our post seem to be lost in the big Scorum nirvana.

Some final words...

It seems the crypto market is moving north again, but somehow it doesn't influence the Scorum Coin at all. I was rather thinking the Scorum Coin price is pretty much affected by the Ethereum price, but maybe we don't really notice small movements of the Scorum Coin price anymore. It is already so low that a gain of 5 percent won't excite anybody anymore.

Well, I wish all those optimists will be right in the end and we gonna see a huge surprise in some future months or years. I haven't given up but it really feels I am on the wrong ship. I guess I need some head-ups that I am with the right team.
Do you hear me!!!

As for now I will leave it to you guys to surprise me this week with some interesting nominations. I am pretty much curious with whom the Scorum community is going to come up this week? Some of the former nominees I had never heard of or read from before, so I consider this initiative a nice chance to broaden my own horizon as well. I am sure there are still some undiscovered gems out there, please bring them on so they can start to shine!

This said, I am ready to receive! And please don't hesitate to hook me up when you have questions or if you want to leave some comment or criticism. You can also find me in the Scorum Patronage channels which I am running on the I am Scorum discord server.

I am looking forward to reading from you.

Catch you soon...

Love and Respect !
