Hi there everybody...
We are already getting closer to the weekend and in only a few day we are also going to leave September behind us. For me I still can feel the summer's heat like it was yesterday, and today is one of those golden warm autumn days, with plenty of gorgeous sunshine and a mild cooling breeze. Isn't it great to be alive?
I am really fortunate to be able to take it easy on such a beautiful day! Sure I have to do some hustling today to make the ends meet and to pay my bills, I still have a couple of smooth days before I will be back to hyper-busy and running all day from place to place. I definitely need such breaks and want them more often. But right now, I don't want to complain too much but rather get you on board for some more community-building!
Yes right, Scorum Patronage is calling us again.
You are all invited to join my Sorum Patronage initiative, where I always ask you to nominate me some Scorum writers who could be in need of some support.
You don't have to do much, just nominate another creative and genuine Scorum users which you have discovered recently. All you need to do is to drop their names down into the comment section. You gonna have time until Sunday when I then choose the winner of this nomination round.
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.
But I will not only visit the winner's blog, but in addition give out some big votes for the person who nominates this round's winner first. Plus I will also leave some upvotes on every genuine nomination or comments. Let's see if this will eventually bring some more people onto joining the nominations.
If you want to see the last winner's announcement, please follow this link:

Nominations for WEEK 39
This gonna be the thirty ninth round of Scorum Patronage in 2019. I usualy ask you a very simple a question:
Which user here at Scorum deserves a little attention and should be supported by me for a whole week?
Please nominate me some Scorum users who need some support or some initial boost. I am thinking about all those new members of our growing and creative community but also about everyone else who is having a hard time fiding its place here on Scorum.
It is not so important how many Scorum Coins or Scorum Power somebody has in its wallet, I would rather like to focus on everybody's post reward. Let's try to find those users who don't usually get payed out big, but still try to provide some interesting and creative content. I will not set any limit anymore, but rather decide case by case and have a look on the candidates whole history.
As I said on Sunday I will choose the nominee who gets the most nominations and declare him or her to our winner of the week. If there is no leader in the nominations, I will choose the candidate who has less SP in its wallet.
I will then visit the blog of our chosen one on a daily basis to read and upvote one post a day for a whole week. Depending on quality and content I might use up to 100% of my voting power, however I strictly reserve myself the right to upvote with less or even to refuse a vote, when I feel an article doesn't live up to the quality level I would like to see here on Scorum.
Hopefully my assistance will help to bring our beneficoary into the spotlight and get his or her posts exposes to a bigger readership.
A few more things
- Important is that you our candidates write in a language I understand, therefor I will consider articles written in English or German. Sorry, other languages can't be accepted.
- And of course you can nominate the same candidate as someone before. As more nominations somebody get as more likely is the chance this user will be on top at the end.
- The idea behind this initiative is to help writers who are not usually standing out in the spotlight and who don't get so much attention. Starting to blog here on Scorum can be challenging in the beginning and I would like to assist those who do have some trouble to get started and who could really be in need of some encouragement.
Some final words...
Unfortunately it looks like if the cryptocurrency market is in a big uproar again. I don't think many of us expected a minus of over 20% yesterday, rather we were kinda peering towards and sky and hoping that the rumors around Bakkt would somehow pull our crippled altcoin portfolio out of the mud. Well, another belly landing probably quite some more people who are starting to lose faith.
Of course I can't claim I am some thrilled and excited right now, but somehow it doeN7t really cause some reaction, only some rather tired shrinking of my shoulders and me mentioning that "the coins are down today. Yes, again and quite much!" while actually minding my own business and moving on with what I was doing. There is nothing to see and I more and more have the impressions that we won't see any crypto fireworks this year anymore. I don't know what initial spark it needs to boast us out of the valley of tears. I am not only talking about Scorum, but about the whole cryoto market who seems to be stuck and bound on a frustrating level.
I am always saying that I am thinking long-term, but how much time do I have and how long do I want to wait? A year or two, or could be five or rather ten? If I could foresee a bright future I wouldn't mind waiting even for twenty years, but damn it...patient has not always been my cup of tea though. However, there is not much I actually can do right now than re-thinking my investments and doing my little share to help keeping the Scorum platform alive. That's why I come back here any given week to call you out, to join my initiative and find some different Scorum member who we can support.
Enough said, I am ready to receive your nominations! Don't be shy, just bring them on folks!
For questions or comments please hook me up in the comments as well. In addition you can find me in the Scorum Patronage channels which I am hosting on the I am Scorum discord channel.
I am hoping to reading from you soon!
Catch you soon...
