Hi. Thanks for participating in my contests. There is some benefit to me also: I want to accumulate enough SBI to really encourage me to post more often. That means I should give away a lot first and contests are a fun way of doing that. A few SBI to a minnow might encourage them to post more content. I'm aware of how frustrating it can be starting out here and so even a few cents of post value can help in the beginning.
Thanks for offering me 5 SBI! I do really appreciate the thought, but since I always have quite a few, perhaps you can instead give them to the people that listed you as a referrer on the last contest (or two). I think that will have more effect in spreading encouragement around the place.
