RE: If You Had The Undivided Attention Of Every Man, Woman And Child On Earth, What Would You Say? - (Announcing The Winner.)!
That's a great message! And one I've been trying to live by for a while.. Good pick! And I like jadams2k18. Seems like a nice and friendly individual. :)
Thanks mate. I really enjoyed this little contest. It was really fun to see what everyone would say given the chance and it provided me with a lot of really thoughtful and positive posts to read from some great writers. I'm going to hold another contest with the same question soon cos I think its a really interesting one. :)
Hows things anyway bud? Sorry I haven't been around much lately but I have been keeping tabs on the IFC and it's really going from strength to strength mate. You've got a great little community there and the marketplace idea is really cool as well. I might start offering some drawings or something on it soon. :)I hope it really takes off for you. Also I still have 25 trophy tokens so if you'd like them to give out as prizes let me know and i'll send them to you and if you need anything else just give me a shout.
I'm going to be on pretty much every day from now on so hopefully we can chat a bit more soon.
Have a good one buddy. :)
You're welcome. It's a good contest idea for sure! I've experienced similar in the IFC.. It's something I think a lot of people can benefit from, to spend more time appreciating other peoples content and not just posting their own.
I've generally tried to do that, but even I have primarily been on the output end focusing more on creation than interacting with others on their pages. So.. This has certainly helped balance that much more and I think it's been helpful to show me how valuable it is to spend time "curating" so to speak for lack of a better term. Especially in our contest cause you get to learn so many different interesting things!
Good luck with your next contest!
Things are going great in some ways. Especially with the IFC and these projects I'm working on.. However I once again find myself in front of the computer screen too much, and I can't keep up with all the messages.. So.. I find myself in a difficult place of wanting this all to grow into somethign amazing, and wanting to spend less time in front of computer screens, lol.. It's a difficult problem, but.. I think in time if I work hard now, more and more volunteers will show up to help.. We just had another one today, someone who's been with us since the beginning as a player has offered to help do a post a week about The Marketplace.. And we have another guy doing the catch up rounds.. Plus all the judges and stuff.. It gets complicated though I think we're still interested in growing.. We're entertaining the idea of maybe doing something every day on the IFC account. If we get enough volunteers and people wanting to help.
But.. We gotta try to do it in ways that doesn't add work load on to me or others and which are independent for the most part. But also that work together in tandem. And.. I think it's totally possible!
The community is really strong like you said, I've heard quite a few people tell me it's one of their favorite things on steemit.. I think we're still only just getting started. We're still in the baby steps phase, and some day.. Who knows.. Could be quite a big community. We shall see! :D
That would be so cool if you did something in The Marketplace!! I would be honored and I'm sure the others would love to see you as well. :) It's a very friendly supportive and helpful community! Which is one of my favorite things about it.. A lot of these people wanna help, they're good peoples from what I can tell.
Usually I only find good people here and there you know? It's kinda rare, like meeting you.. You were one of the few people who i thought was really cool and I still do feel that way, now with this community though we have a bunch of really honorable and caring people who impress me on a regular basis. It's really fascinating and fulfilling to me to see. :)
Thanks for the well wishes! And.. I'm not sure what trophy tokens are? But that sounds like something I would be interested in doing. We're also planning on probably making a trophy up for the winner off some site on the internet, like a physical trophy, lol. And ima send em a hat too with the IFC logo on it.. And.. If you could offer some trophy tokens that's be rad as well! I dunno what they mean, but it sounds cool!
Thanks for offering to help!
I'm hesitant to ask cause.. I'm not good at asking for help. But if you would like to help, there's definitely a lot of ways. :) You could help do some more guest judging, the shop you're thinking about is a great idea!! And.. If you wanted to get more involved in the IFC, I would be happy to try to help figure out a way to do that. You're one of my favorite people on here and I'd be honored if you were a part of our community more. :)
Glad to hear you're going to be being on more! I had actually visited your page quite a few times but mostly when I did it was resteems, so that's cool you'll be around more! Cheers man! :D
I'm definitely going to try to be on every day and comment a bit more than I have been the past few months and I'd love to get involved in the IFC somehow. Not sure how long you have left of the season and what your plans are but I'd be up for sponsoring and guest judging another round. I'm sure between us we could come up with an interestimg idea. :)
When you first mentioned the idea of the IFC to me I never realised just how big a project you had in mind or what a great community would form around it. You've done an amazing job mate and I can't imagine how much work its been but I'm sure its been worth it. :)
Give me a shout any time my friend. Hope your day is going well. :)
Whoops! I'm sorry. You're already on our discord I remember now. Darn. I'm overwhelmed. I forgot. So.. Anyways. I made a store for you on there already. :) Feel free to drop by whenever!
Yeah I joined when I guest judged an earlier round and I'll pop on today at some point and say hello. Speak soon mate. :)
Cool! Looking forward to it! I have a feeling some good ideas will bloom. :D I think some already have!
Word! That's awesome. Would love to have you. And yeah! I think we could definitely. Have you used discord before? Could you come on our channel? I'll have a room set up for you and we can talk about this more fluently.
Also.. I never realized it would be this big either! Lol.. Imean in the back of my mind I hoped it would blow up and some day be huge.. And it may still be.. But.. I never knew it would actually work so well and so fast. It's been absolutely amazing. I could talk about it for hours.. The potential is unreal, I hope to help make the world a better place with these people who have become a part of the community.
Time will tell of course! I'm investing steem and time and who knows how much will come back, but I have a feeling it will come back when so many people enjoy it and wanna be a part of it.
We've got like 4 or 5 witnesses helping us.. I think we're off to an amazing start and in time more people will offer to help. :)
Thanks for the nice words! And yeah it's been an insane amount of work and well worth it, though hopefully in time I can pull back more and others will take over.. It seems like a really great idea a lot of people like, in fact it seems like someone even tried to steal the idea already.. I'll tell you more about that another time.
