Dun, dunna, daaaaah (Impressive trumpeting sounds).. It's time for another awesome contest!
As I announced in my 3000 Followers post, here, I have a new contest for you all to participate in. This time it's all about Steem Ocean, the website I am creating to provide useful tools and services for Steemians of various kinds.
For a Chance To Win a Delegation of 500 Steem Power for 1 Month
- Resteem this competition post.
- Make a new post to review the site steemocean.com – explain what you like, what you don’t like and what you would like to see added to it to improve it. Be sure to tag the post with 'steemocean-review', so that I can see it.
- Gain a high score in the Steem Ocean voter rank index during the period between 19th and 25th of March 2018 (GMT). You can do this by voting a high number of other users’ posts, minimising the amount of self voting you do and also by maximising the amount of Steem Power you have to increase the effectiveness of your voting.
On the 1st April, Steem Ocean will calculate the voter rank index for the time period mentioned in step 3. I will then look through the list of competition entrants, check their position in the Steem Voter Rank and whoever is top among the entrants will receive 500 Steem Power delegated for 1 month from me.
There is no restriction on what you can use the Steem Power for - so you can do 100% self upvotes with it if you want (though it might be better for us all if you didn't!). The important thing is that you are altruistic with your votes during the contest time period.
If you have any questions, let me know below!
May the Steem be with you!
Wishing you well,
Ura Soul

You are an awesome witness!
Hi Ura-Soul. After reviewing it, I could truly say that steemocean is a good project. I've joined the contest, and hoping that I could win later on. :D

Here is my review and entry post

Thanks! Upvoted and Resteemed!
Thank you.
I haven't been a member for very long and have no votes showing up. I re steemed you anyways. Am looking at witnesses and what they are doing for steem. So for is a lot to look at and wondered if there is a one stop information source for all witnesses.
P.S for some reason I can't up vote your post. Sorry.
Thanks, no problem. You can view the data for witnesses here. Next to each witness there is a link that takes you to their witness application post that is their own description of themselves in the role of a witness. You can also see how up to date their price feed is, how many blocks they have missed and other relevant info.
Thanks so much for your quick reply. A suggestion for you and steam-ocean. Instead of just showing how up vetoing in a particular way helps, show also how commenting and up voting comments helps the post and the voter commenters. From what I can tell comments help reputation and curation. Just a thought.
P.S That source for witnesses is awesome thanks!
You are welcome. It is possible to calculate stats that show how often a user comments on their own posts and how quickly they reply etc.
The vote logs that appear on steem ocean currently do include votes made on comments as well as on posts.
I'll bare that general area in mind, yes.
Personally I will always try to reply to comments on my post and up vote those comments. One of the problems I notice is that people are not aware that comments count as a post, but take less time then creating a blog. Don't know what it means for steemians though. LOL
I wanna know how you can generate 500 steem power be delegated to the winner of of this contest. Thanks
I'm not sure exactly what you are asking me here. Steem Power can be bought with any currency via an exchange or can be earned by posting on Steem enabled websites and having your posts upvoted.
i need it in freee... um lazy... i have the advantage :p
i wants to be WIN 500 STEEM POWER :)
can i ?
Finally i have seen a way to get steem power delegation, dreams come true xD

Thats great opurtunity for us,peeps need to utilize this,
I think your doing a awesome thing with your page brother! Keep up the awesome work and im going to follow you right now! I might even enter your give away brother!
When I made that bid there was space for it, but obviously others bid at the same time as me ;)
Thanks for your support!
They did all go threw at the same time, only thing i was semi hurt buy was the amount due. I am used to using smaller bots but i noticed there are usually bigger bids on bots with a min of 1SDB+ and i also seen that you spaced your bid out so it wasn't to much for one bot. My apologizes for being quick to react
No problem. Placing bids on bots is always something of a gamble - sometimes you make profit and sometimes not.
30.65% @pushup from @ura-soul
This looks very interesting thank you. Best of luck.
Nice initiative @ura-soul !
@moneyinfant has added your contest to the list Steemit Writing Contests: Issue #53. The list is updated on a daily basis and your contest will remain on the list until its expiration - there's nothing you need to do.
The list was created to save writers the excessive amount of time spent searching through the #contest tag for writing contests. Now they can just come to the list each day, see new contests and use their time doing what they love - writing.
If you'd like to help spread the word about the Steemit Writing Contest List I'd really appreciate a resteem, but it certainly isn't necessary. The project is simply meant to help writers save time and contest creators attract more contestants.
P.S. If you know of any contests I've missed I'd love to hear about them. Thanks!
Hi @ ura-soul, i really want to participate in the contest but i don't understand what you mean by gaining a high score in the steem ocean. I would really appreciate if you could explain more. Thank you
Sure, when you look at the voter rank table at steemocean.com, you will see that each user has a Rank on the left side of the table. Every user who votes during the data analysis time period will receive a rank that compares their voting patterns to every other user who voted. Whoever has the highest rank of all the competition entrants on the 1st of April will win the contest!
