Hey UpvoteBuilders,

I am happy to announce that the first 50 lucky early bird membership slot of the community has been filled up. Not to worry, you can still join if you haven’t and you will still be receiving half the early bird gift for the time remaining.

HURRY NOW, YOU STILL GET HALF THE EARLY BIRD GIFT IF YOU JOIN NOW

Membership Upgrade – Something You Need To Consider

We have less than two week to the end of the early bird boosted upvote gift after which everyone will be returned to their normal upvote level. This is the time for you to build up and upgrade your SP delegation so you won’t suffer massive upvote decline when the free gift ends.

Some members have been kind enough to upgrade their membership by delegating additional SP to their current delegated SP. This is really helping to grow the community SP which in turn grows the value of our upvotes.

Membership SP delegation will help reduced our reliance on leasing SP. Help us grow this community to encourage the content creators that are poorly rewarded through the upvote value they receive. So we need the big time delegators to join us and reap the benefits available for all members.

Contest Judge

Two members, @definethedollar and @emergehealthier have indicated their interest to one-time unbiased contest judge for the contest that will be announced tomorrow. Thank you for your interest.

Please vote who you would want to be the judge of tomorrows contest in the comment section below. Thank you.

Note: There is no winner or loser, the member not selected as the judge can compete in the contest tomorrow and will be the judge in the next contest. So we just need one person for now and will need the next person for later.

So please suggest among these two members who should be the judge in the contest tomorrow using the comment area. Thank you.

ONLY MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY SHOULD SUGGEST PLEASE

Contest

Although the 5% mapped out for contest rewards is currently not enough to run a contest as we currently have about 1.4 Steem. The admin will fund what is left + the judges fee of 2 Steem.

The Prizes:

1st prize – 3 Steem

2nd prize – 2 Steem

3rd prize – 1 Steem

The contest will be announced on Wednesday so writers, put on your thinking caps and gear up for the challenge. If you would like to help support the rewards for contestants you can send in your Steem to @upvotebuilders. The community will be very appreciative of your gesture.

Leasing Additional SP

We leased 650 SP yesterday from the curation reward mapped out for sponsors’ rewards + the share mapped out for powering up. This has further increased the value of upvotes members are receiving. As we have mentioned, we still prefer our own SP to be the major source of our upvotes so we need more members and higher SP delegations, thank you.

Posts And Mentions

We are extremely grateful to members that have been spreading the word about the community through their post and mentions. This is indeed helping to promote and advertise the community to a broader audience. Your efforts are much appreciated as this is cheaper than using bid-bots.

Membership Status

We currently have 51 members with a total delegated SP of 6,811 SP, we leased 6,450 SP and 1001.5 SP from a free sponsor. Our members SP is getting bigger than the leased SP, this is very good and we hope it skyrockets soon. You can check out all the details on the table below. Please remember that the early bird gift starts counting from the day of launch of this community.

Membership

Membership @upvotebuilders is by DELEGATION ONLY, it is not a paid for community. If you want to sponsor the community you can freely delegate SP to us and specify that it is for sponsorship or you can send us Steem/SBD to lease more SP. Our sponsors don’t receive upvotes from the community account except they specifically want to be a member and also sponsor the community in the way they feel best for them.

To join just delegate SP to @upvotebuilders based on the membership level you want to belong to according to the chart below

Membership Delegation Levels

Level 1: 10 - 49 SP delegation - 2% voting weight
Level 2: 50 - 99 SP delegation - 5% voting weight
Level 3: 100 - 249 SP delegation - 10% voting weight
Level 4: 250 - 499 SP delegation - 20% voting weight
Level 5: 500 - 999 SP delegation - 30% voting weight
Level 6: 1,000 – 2,499 SP delegation - 45% voting weight
Level 7: 2,500 – 4,999 SP delegation - 60% voting weight
Level 8: 5,000 – 7,499 SP delegation - 70% voting weight
Level 9: 7,500 – 9,999 SP delegation - 85% voting weight
Level 10: 10,000 SP delegation and above gets you 100% voting weight

All membership delegation levels will receive one upvote daily (every 24 hours) this is to curtail abuse of the system. You can always increase, decrease or undelegate to @upvotebuilders at any time and we will adjust your voting weight accordingly.

In Conclusion

We appreciate all of members that have joined and will continue to work so that you receive the best rewards for your commitment to the community. We need more members to grow our SP to continue to spread the word by resteeming our post. Upvoting us means you earn more from part of the curation rewards you will be receiving at the beginning of every week (Monday), we suggest you put @upvotebuilders on your autovoting list to make it easier to upvote us. Follow us if you haven’t best of all, we would like your feedback and comments. Thanks always.
