WINNERS Announcement - Best Comment Contest #4...'Three SBI Recipiants'
We've chosen our favorite comments in response to the prompt, "How Can We Help Each Other on Steemit?"
It wasn't too difficult narrowing down the contestants this time, because there were a bunch of plagiarized content submitted, by people who became automatically disqualified...
Additionally, there were some comments 'typically' a slight bit 'off topic' or not truly related to the prompt. We think it odd that someone would respond to a prompt asking, "how can we help each other" with merely a 'large' self-vote with none given to the post or any other participant. They were in essence just rewarding themselves...
Other comments were closer to 'how steemit could better serve the community' not what the prompt indicated.
So...Two of the winners are 'repeat winners' who participated and commented along the correct lines, with the third winner chosen after collaboration with our other sponsor...
Here are the people who each received a one share sponsorship in @steembasicincome
Transfer 2.000 STEEM to steembasicincome @stevenwood , @father2b
Transfer 1.000 STEEM to steembasicincome @rudyardcatling
Interaction, Up-Voting, Re-steeming and other factors went into the selection process, at some point. (e.g. especially with 'tied' breaking)
Well, that's about it for this time around. Thanks to all who participated, and we hope to see you again.
Some participants may receive additional up-votes in the future from @averageoutsider and other friends...

I cannot thank you enough my friend :)
This initiative means that those whom you have chosen to reward will never need to look at a freshly baked post sitting there (with all the effort, thought and emotion that was put into it,) sporting a 0.00 balance. This is heartening and encouraging.
I am happy and sad to say that I have yet made the most of the wonderful SBI's I have been rewarded.
Why? Because I want to understand those that I see as being important as we move forward together. I've said it before and I will again without apology I see this place as a movement. For the first time in many years I see something that has the potential to be transformational in the right way an empowering way that helps those at the bottom.
I believe that reading the posts of brand new Steemians gives me an insight into their soul almost. They are usually unpolished not too self edited and their true motives seem to be magnified.
Once I am as active with posting rather than empowering and encouraging...Watch and hear me ROAR.
P.S- That circle of friends I mentioned...Oh I don't even need to say it, you know already, right? :D
Thanks @stevenwood ...Your sbi is not wasted, as I understand it, they give extra votes to posts when they have a balance of idle members.
Yeah...that 0.00 really ticks me off (CHECK OUT MY NEW POST ABOUT IT) Not only THAT, but they are 'rounding down' our dust votes as well...the ones people 'leave' for us on posts...
I'll spend all my sbd on bot bids to get this to trending if I have to...I'm making a stink, even if it breaks my account here...I'm 'donating any profits'
Regards @averageoutsider
I saw your some Previous post you doing always Interesting Post and Helping People by Contest. Great Job Keep it up
Thank you for the encouraging comment.
Kindly give me Upvote
If you want up-votes, you should first show your 'true' colors by voting 'first'...Especially when you have 'nothing' to offer this platform in the form of quality.
Wow thanks @averageoutsider. What you do with these giveaways is beyond amazing. Please never stop and Thankyou for prize. I will look forward to your next contest and hope more people will get involved
You're welcome...The next giveaway will be based on a 'Best Essay' or short story instead of comments...We're actually thinking about a 'Tribute to a Loving/Lost Pet'
I will look forward to it although I was never good at essays lol
Yeah, but this one will be 'from the heart' so it will be easier...
Thank you hr1 ... your recognition is very much appreciated.
