Announcing The SteemGC Curation Campaign
Greetings Steemit,
Today we are here to announce a curation campaign that will be held by the SteemGC from tomorrow the 31st of January until further notice. We are having this campaign to promote gaming content here on Steemit and also streamers on DLive.
SteemGC Curation Campaign
The SteemGamingCommunity is growing every day and we see a lot of quality posts that sadly remain unnoticed. We are here to change that. To start off we will handle the curating ourselves. This means the mods of the SGC. Depending on the need in the future we might add curators to our team. We have a post-promotion channel in the SteemGC Discord server where we encourage our members to send in their post links so that we can review the posts and upvote them according to our rules.
If you are interested in helping us curate gamers on Steemit and assist in the growth of the gaming community, consider delegating to the @steemgc account so we can effectively curate the growing amount of gaming related posts.
Rules
To be eligible for curation, your posts/streams must consist of the following:
-Streams
- The SteemGC logo on stream thumbnails
- The tag ‘steemgc’
- Must be a follower of @steemgc
- Duration must be no shorter than 45 minutes
-Posts
- The SteemGC logo on post thumbnails or in the footer of the post
- The tag ‘steemgc’
- Must be a follower of @steemgc
- Must be original content
- Quality content, will be reviewed by the SteemGC curators, who have strict guidelines
You can get the thumbnails from @cheaky ‘s post or make a custom one using the transparent fox logo which you can get HERE! Custom thumbnails with a small fox logo are also acceptable.
Original and quality content will also be resteemed based on the same guidelines, exposing the author to a wider audience.
There will soon be an announcement about the very first SteemGC CS:GO live match, which will include prizes generated by the @steemgc account.
Don’t forget to join us on Discord by clicking the link HERE!

I just mentioned in my last post that we should try to create a gaming community with a relatively high SP moderator (or two, or three) who can reward its members (so as to attract new gamers and help grow the platform), so I'm on board :)
One suggestion, though:
Once a week (or whatever works best) give the community some options to vote on for a gaming competition, with a prize pool. An example that I thought of was to set up a speed run of an old school game like Mario Bros. Everyone within the community has the same amount of time to produce a video (that validates their Steemit identity within the recording or in some other way that's difficult to fake) that:
A.) finishes with the fastest time.
(or, if no one beats the game)
B.) makes it the furthest in the game without losing all lives.
A problem with something like this is that not everyone will have access to that game. So we could aim for something more generalized like "biggest game feat" or something still broad but more specific like "best side-scroller accomplishment" and leave it up to the community or mods to vote on who wins the prize(s).
Something like this would probably work best with a weekly post aimed solely at stocking up on prize Steem to award to the winner(s) of the competitions.
On that note, if we were to do competitions on steam we could have both sides stream themselves playing and the winner gets a ton of 100% upvotes lol
It would be easy as hell to set that up.
I'd be down for that.
You would need a lot of "moderators" because voting power would be difficult to manage if you did end up getting a lot of content. I can burn through my voting power FAST and I only generally support a small number of people on my follow list.
Maybe a SMT could solve this?
Community leaders (who create the SMT and go through the ICO process) can keep a relatively high percentage of the coins to themselves (preferably no more than 25% of the total between all of them, if it were to fit my definition of "possible fair distribution") so that they have plenty of voting power to share.
Ooh, this is exciting, but I'm not sure how my followers will feel about my posts getting plastered with logos. I'll give this some thought!
EDIT: The Discord link appears to be malformed. I was able to get in by truncating it to https://discord.gg/vPTuQpa
Thanks for bringing this to our attention :) should be working now!
Ah, thank you for opening up the option to include SteemGC in the footer rather than the post thumbnail! I expect that will be substantially more palatable to readers (and keep the post eye-catching in recent post feeds). I'll start trying that out with my next post!
dear all the best @steemgc
