NO NEW ENTRIES - Week 33 - Pay It Forward Curation Contest
Another week starting up and it's Thanksgiving week. My favorite holiday of the year as it's all about spending time with family, taking some time to reflect on and appreciate what and who you have in your life. Part of what I am Thankful for is the amazing community that has formed around the idea of helping others. So wanted to take a minute to say Thank You for your efforts!
The Pay It Forward Curation Contest is all about increasing exposure for high quality posts and increase the level of engagement on steemit. You can take part by entering the contest or just helping visit the entries and their featured posts. Everyone chooses their level of involvement and we appreciate the efforts of everyone who helps promote quality content on Steemit.
No changes of note so for the regulars go start curating and those of you who are here for the first time welcome and read below for the rules.
Note: @lynncoyle1 is taking a week or two off and this week I (@thedarkhorse) will be taking her place.
As always check back to this post often and scroll to the end to see a list of this week's curation entries!
How to Enter the Pay It Forward Curation Contest?
To enter the Curation Contest you will find 2 high quality blog posts written by reputation level 55 or lower steemians and then write a curation style blog post like this entry by @viking-ventures from week 16 which won a Judges Choice Award.

Oh, well, my 5% is worth 0 again. Long time this didn't happen. :-P
Nice choices, @brittandjosie!
Thats ok , a comment is ok too
I'm having to do 85% to get 0.02 still... Frustrating.
It's getting very low indeed. At the moment, 700 SP are needed to upvote a comment above the dust threshold! :-O
I have use of 708 SP and 0.02 SBD max vote right now. I don't think that gets above dust right now. So, I don't know what the number is to hit 0.03 anymore, but it's much higher than me.

Entry #8
This week I haven't been able to visit many entries... and I imagine I ain't the one having trouble. After all, a lousy $0.02 vote is worth 700 SP today. It's getting ridiculous.
Anyway, here is my entry for this week: My entry to the "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 33"
I'll try to return later tonight or over the weekend to upvote a few more entries.
Entry #16
The goal is to cover the 2c dust level with @pifc on the comments and then all featured posts. If needed we will be leasing some SP if the value keep going down. Hopefully it won't come to that, but if needed we will.
In the mean time know that even smaller votes are good enough as the dust threshold won't be an issue. Know you understand this, but want to make sure everyone else does.
