RE: Steemit Open Mic Week 103 Winners - See Who Won Open Mic And Join Us This Week
Hey @luzcypher, @krystle, @meno, @passion-ground, @soundlegion
I just want to mention something that is important to me and maybe to others and yes you may see this as kind of an complaint, which you seem to be a little bit tired of, as I can well understand. But this week many posts were missed, as you said yourself in some of the replies. So as it seemed to be a known problem, the missed ones appeared to only be readded after a "complaint". I waived that in order to be not one more person of that kind (and as I complant several times, because several entries of mine were missed in the past , some even in a weekly row). So this time I was trusting that the list would be fixed and a winner announced on that bases because of the well known problem. Unfortunately the missed ones were just let beside (excluding those who complaint) and the competition went on. My suggestion would be to take a little bit more time (if needed) but if a problem accures and is yet known, to solve it before continuing judging and competiting. This is just a bit to disappointing otherwise. And yes, I know this is all about community and not about winning. But it's still a competition that could be little bit more fair for this week. Here's our missed entry (although you've even responded "thanks for playing open mic" not on any see who played list):
I know how frustrating that must feel but believe me when I say I take a lot of time checking and double checking that I got every post. That being said there are things that happen on the blockchain that is beyond my control.
I can only vote for posts that I see posted with the openmic tag and even if someone posts everthing correctly sometimes for some inexplicable reason they still do not show up in my feed.
Last week the Steem blockchain was down, but this sometimes happens even when everyting is working normally.
Watch this video of me catching a post disappear before my eyes
When that happens there is nothing I can really do about it.
Take a look at all the new posts under the openmic tag here:
https://steemit.com/created/openmic
Usually, we get new posts every 15 minutes or so. As you can see, the last week there were a lot missing from the feed, something I cannot fix myself and would not know who was missed unless they told me.
We are as thorough as possible but I can't do a thing about this issue. Hopefully, it will get resolved.
I get your point but what I can not understand is if you respond "Thank you for openmic" (what you did) still you claim to not have seen it because of invisibility adn therefore it's not on the list. If it was invisible why are you able to reply? That does not make any sense to me.
I will not bother you anymore. Thank you.

Because it was there that day I added the response but not on the day I make the weekly post. Somehow it disappeared. I do not understand either, but if I can't see it the feed I can"t add it to that post.
Please be sure to add a link to your post to the contest post and I will double check that post for entries to avoid that happening in the future.
You are aware that last week Steemit was down for several days and many posts did not go through. We did the best we could do in that situation.
Again, I apologize and will do the best I can going forward.
