With over 70 entrants, this contest proved reasonably popular. One account has won 1000 delegated SP for a month....
Selecting a bunch of 'positive phrases' and seeing who was repeating them the most has been on my to do list for a while. I finally got round to it last week and chose the difficult September we had as the data range.
Finding out who was still curating content and replying to their own post comments with positivity was a good exercise, and I think there will be more of these to come. This time around, I chose the following phrases:
- I love this
- very kind
- much appreciated
- thank you so much
- fantastic
- well done
- thank you very much
- i love
- you are very kind
- steem on!
- I applaud you
- you rock
- excellent!
- i am very happy
- this is awesome
- my pleasure
- you are welcome
- congratulations
- a lovely
- great!
Clearly this selection was not going to suit everyone, but hey, my contest 😛
And the winner is...
@veryspider!
At the start of the week @janton took the lead. Then @erikah appeared with the first of only two +400 scores.
Then with 452 of these positive phrases, @veryspider marched into the lead and was never caught. Congratulations @veryspider, I will delegate you 1000 SP when I get to the laptop in a few hours time.

Thanks to everyone for taking part. If you would like to see more like this, let me know below 😊

Yowza! Congratulations @veryspider!! Such a positive little arachnid :)
Yes she certainly is!
'Good egg' will have to be in the list at some point, or do I go for 'filthiest mouths' October 2018 😁
Filthy I can do lol. Would like to see Texas using bad language .
I’m @jantons vulgarity pinch-hitter for team Texas.

Yeee-haaa!
Doesn't spell any swears I know of?
“Yes-haaa” is general exclamation denoting that one feels positive about something. That would be the opposite of a swear. If you really want to ruffle some feathers, say something like “Women’s reproductive health” or “Separation of Church and State.”

Janton didn't win? Impossible! We must call an investigation, I blame the Russians.
I hope my intention as a clear joke is known
'Only' 3rd place, I suspect he's looking forward to tomorrow's post though 😁
hahaha! and I thought I was kinda positive but nothing compared to veryspider! great job veryspider, that's wonderful and congratulations!
And thank you Asher for such a unique contest!
Awww spider is so very deserving!! Her comments are always so genuine and encouraging, so glad to see her win this! ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for doing this Ash.
Well, congratulations to @veryspider, and good on you, @abh12345 for doing this in the first place. I'm kind of glad I wasn't so positive in September. :) No way I was reaching those numbers even if I were.
Are you wondering if we want a monthly positivity chart replete with delegation? My guess would be that many would love that. In my case, I'm not really looking for delegation. I like to see what I'm doing. However, having another competition where I'm pummeled senseless? Oh, whatever. Bring it on. :)
Congratulations @veryspider, way to be so positive, it is positively wonderful that you should win with such a positive set of numbers. I was going to go for a most positive comment but I think I will just try to squeeze in the word positive one more time.;-}
Very fine job, @veryspider, and nice contest @abh12345.
Well done @veryspider!! Cleary you love all the things! This is absolutely huge!
Hey Asher, was this comp over a week or over a month? Cos, either way, @veryspider's comments are incredible... but if it's over a week, then it is absolutely sensational!
This competition has been on my mind all week, it's definitely made me approach comments a lot more positively... looking forward to the next one dude!
I sure do love this, continue with it! Congrats, spider...😊😘
Grats spider! You deserve it :)

Felicitaciones @veryspider, que sigan los éxitos, un abrazo @abh12345.
Asher, dear sir, i have question for you. A good friend, and a great steemian, rentmoney, is having a hard time being able to Keep up with steemit due to the new system. He is an awesome community minded individual. He does contests that help a lot of other people and is a genuine caring person. I have delegated as much SP as i can give to him. But i was wondering if you or anyone you know may be willing to help out a little bit too? If so i thank you and anyone Who can help in advance. And if not, i completely understand. I also have noticed that i don't have you on my auto vote anymore for some reason. It was the same way with davemccoy. So anyway i have fixed that. I hope all is well for you and that you are enjoyng your weekend! Thanks again for your consideration in this matter....and for all the great things you are doing here.
Cheers John :)
I have delegated 50 SP to rentmoney, I think that should see him by while his account grows. Thanks for letting me know, and adding me to your auto :D
And this my dear friend is why YOU are the best!!! Thank you so much. I wish you ran this place.
Hi @abh12345,
I was wondering why I got the delagation from you and now I see it was because of @johndoer123 doing what he does best..... reaching out to help others. I thank both you and him. The delagation will certainly help but for full disclosure .... I do own 250 SP and my RC issues is / was only a temp issue.
Yes I had a look, you should be OK but if you are commenting like crazy then maybe it was in danger. I'll remove it in a few months :)
I ran some contest that needed me to post many comments which caused my RC to get zapped. I just needed to allow it to regenerate and I would be all set. Thanks again for the delagation, feel free to remove it much sooner then a few months as I doubt I will run into any RC issues again.
Thanks for doing this its appreciated, my RC issues was only a temp one. I am holding 250 SP which allows for allot of comments. I just need to let it regenerate a little. I feel as others need this type of help more then I. Your delgation and effort to help me and others is noted and appreciated. Feel free to remove your delagation when-ever you see fit to do so.
If you want, i will remove some of my delegation....but first, please let me know of a person or two who you believe deserve the delegation i remove from you. I will give Yours to them. Or you can keep it. Either way, i feel its a good way to help the community. @abh12345 delegated to me months ago and it helped me so much. So i want to do like him and help someone else in this way.
There are so many that do that I will have to leave picking someone out of the crowd in your capable hands.
On a side note : Are you into Steem-Monsters ? If so do you have the starter pack already ?
Okay. That sounds fair. And i have bought some cards. Not sure if i bought a starter pack but it seems i remember i did. I think it cost me 5 bucks when i did it. Is there any way for me to check? And do you mind me asking why you ask?
Yeah, you have the starter pack then as it was $5 for anyone who had a Steemit account $10 for those who didn't. I asked because I would have given you a starter pack if you didn't already have one.
That is very generous of you. Thanks for the thought and consideration.
