RE: 'Mechanical Turk' Kicks In...The 'FUN' Begins at, Effect.AI (EFX)

in #contest6 years ago

Hi

I just had a chance to read your post fully. little bit to late to be able to upvote. sorry

Really good piece of work. Im following all originalworks contenst and I know that this is second time they want people to write about effect.ai.
competition seem to be fierce and I must admit that your post is one of my fav so far.

You mind if i would ask you few questions?

  1. it's not easy to purchase effect.ai. which exchange would you recommend as reliable and safe?
  2. do you think that effect.ai will be more successful as a marketplace comparing to dbc? any thoughts?

cheers,
piotr

Thanks for the feedback on my article. I don't feel that 'any' present exchange is reliable and safe, at this stage of the game...but integrity is proven out by those who 'own up' to breeches by refunds to any client who lost funds as a result.

Also: The Originalworks contests are not receiving the bulk of submitted articles which I would consider 'fierce competition' ... most have become 'bogus' by individuals who seem to be just after that 1Steem payout for just participating. It is also causing the 'announcement page' to be getting an increase of 'spam' comments.

Once in awhile, their 'is' a sudden increase in well written submissions by 'talented' writers, but fades quickly once again. Guess we all have our own reasons for taking breaks, As for me...I prefer writing according to how I choose, rather than by 'assignment', it doesn't feel like 'work' when we are writing about something which interests us.

Many Regards,

Wow. what an impressive reply. thank you for your time @averageoutsider

im glad you decided to share your thoughts with me

What could help them to get better in your opinion?
Do you know of anyone else who could compete with originalworks? or anyone else creating contest related to crypto and blockchain?

Would you mind sending me short email to [email protected]? I would love to be able to keep in touch and support each other on Steemit.
I wish there would be more advanced notification system developed by steemit.

No pressure of course :)

Cheers, Piotr

I'm not aware of any other 'regular' cryptocurrency writing contest hosts/sponsors, but do see some occasionally run by individuals.

"What can help them get better?"
That's a tough one, because they are doing a pretty good job within their means...The increased spamming in comments just for votes can only be reduced by 'not' giving votes to them.
As far as the awarding goes for merely submitting, regardless of quality might be addressed by limiting those low end rewards to a handful, like @originalworks used to do.

If they are attempting to 'help' people in the developing countries by paying forward, I think they can come up with a better way. I'm all for helping others here on this platform.

Most of the 'top' writers are well deserving of their wins, regardless how I place, I salute them. We never know 'who' it is that actually reads and selects entries, nor their criteria, comprehension level or expertise. Therefore, it is often a hit-or-miss for the top performers.
