Last Day For SteemFest2 FREE Ticket Giveaway! Nominate Your Self or Another Valuable Steemit Contributor To Win!

in #steemfest7 years ago

Today is the last day for my SteemFest2 ticket giveaway!



SteemFest2 is less than a month away, and I can feel the excitement and creamy delicious awesomeness building!


There are already a lot of great entries from valuable Steemit contributors. It is a VERY difficult choice as there are many who would help make SteemFest an awesome experience. Yet this is your chance to win a ticket or nominate that one who will bring something special to SteemFest2!



To promote this revolutionary platform Steemit and to help make SteemFest more creamy and delicious, I am giving away a ticket to SteemFest2!

Today is the LAST day left to nominate yourself or a fellow Steemian in this contest!



Steemfest last year was a big success and really highlights how awesome Steemit is, in a full on weekend Super Fest celebrating everything SteemTastic about Steemit!


People are starting to get excited, and I know there are still some really valuable contributors out there who need a little help to get to SteemFest2!

So I am giving away a ticket to a deserving person who is going to contribute the most to the success of SteemFest2!

You can read all the rules, information, and updates below, this is just a reminder that today is now the last day left to get your entries in! 

I know how many poeple out there want to go and a little extra help can make it happen!



I am honored and excited to be speaking at SteemFest this year! If you have not yet seen @roelandp's newest SteemFest update post, then be SURE to check it out and give an upvote here!



If you haven't seen my "I am speaking at SteemFest post", then check it out so I don't have to recap the entire thing here!

If you want to see the SteemFest post by @roelandp announcing me as a speaker, it's here!



So basically, I love Steemit and have been a top "cheerleader" for Steemit for over a year now. I could go on and on about all I have done to promote Steemit, increase the value of $teem, and contribute valuable content, but that's mostly all in the post linked above!


The point of THIS post - which I am sure you care more about - is a FREE ticket to SteemFest!



Last year I had a ticket to SteemFest and was scheduled to go, but the birth of my first son changed that at the last minute. Instead, I sponsored travel expenses for @saramiller and @everlove to go in my stead. They will tell you first hand that SteemFest was truly epic!


(@everlove and @saramiller rocking hand painted Epic Steemit Gear sustainably made in @gardenofeden)


I know it's not realistic for everyone to go, but really this is a WORTHWHILE EVENT!


If you're not yet convinced, watch this AWESOME video by @roelandp which is informative and very entertaining! We gonna have a BALL, HAVE A BALL, HAVE A BALL!!!!



Buy your tickets here!!!


I truly believe Steemit has the potential to be revolutionary, and I know there are a lot of really awake and inspired people here on Steemit that just need a little help and inspiration to make it to the most Fantastic Fest on the Planet, SteemFest!



I want to help promote SteemFest, as it is a truly worthy cause and @roelandp and other dedicated Steemians have put in so much time, energy, and finances into making this happen two years in a row!


(The man himself @roelandp !!!)


While @roelandp is the one weaving this all together, this is in Steemit fashion a COMMUNITY EVENT! This would not be possible without ALL of us, but there are individuals who have donated a generous sum to make Steemit happen for the rest of us!

 Lets give a SPECIAL thanks to

Let's remember that despite giveaways like this and cheap ticket prices, SteemFest is NOT FREE!

Every one of these individuals has donated and contribute more than a generous sum to make SteemFest possible for the rest of us. I for one am very grateful for the ones who have made not just SteemFest possible but STEEMIT POSSIBLE for all of us!

Give thanks to @gtg who got us a 10-15% discount on flights to Lisbon using coupon code IT17TPCG95, so consider checking out his post before booking flights.

I also want to recognize the Noble Steemians who have already given away tickets before I. 

If you followed any of the SteemFest action last year, you know how awesome it was, and I am quite sure this one is going to be even more awesome yet!

So my hope is that not only will I be able to sponsor another valuable Steemian to SteemFest, but that I will also inspire and motivate others to invest in their own success by going to SteemFest!

So let's get into it:

How do YOU win your ticket to SteemFest?


 


Well as I said, my two main goals are to ONE sponsor a deserving and valuable Steemian to SteemFest and TWO to PROMOTE SteemFest and Steemit as a whole!

So.......

Guidelines!!!!!

  1. I am going to take a page from the Exemplary Steemian @papa-pepper and NOT require a Resteem of this post!
  2. I am NOT going to require an Upvote of this post. 
  3. I DO require that you make a comment, or make your own post and link it in this thread. 
  4. The post/comment should answer "Why Will SteemFest Be Better Because You Are There?"
  5. One week from this post, I will choose a winner for a FREE (rather, one I will purchase with $teem) to SteemFest!
  6. I will donate a ticket to whoever I feel is going to most benefit Steemit and SteemFest! Remember, this is all about the greater good of Steemit and SteemFest not just an individual. 
  7. Please vote on the entry you feel most deserves the donation, as I will take that into consideration. 
  8. If anyone entering is found to be lying or dishonorable, they will be eliminated and flagged.  
  9. I will give the deserving winner the ticket upon arrival to SteemFest front registry desk. 
  10. Let's do this for the success of Steemit!

Ok, so that may seem like a lot it really comes down to who is contributing to the greater good of the Steemit Community!


So make your entries and get ready for the most Fantastic Fest on Earth: STEEMFEST!


Full Steem Ahead to SteemFest2!




Sort:  

Don't know if I am too late to nominate @luzcypher but he should be a shoe in winner for all the community leadership he has done for us all here on Steemit. :) Best of success to him and us all, you @quinneaker are very kind and generous to provide this opportunity as others have done for SteemFest2 to be available for worthy and blessed and valuable members of our community.

Thank You Brother~

I agree @luzcypher is totally worthy. It would be so difficult to not choose him as he has done so much for Steemit and also would love to have him at SteemFest.

You too I would love to have at SteemFest and feel are a genuine gem. In truth the decision is very difficult as there are many valuable steemians and that is why I started the contest to begin with.

Because I would like to contribute to SteemFest by bringing another valuable participant but also to support a genuine contributor in making it to the most creamy and delicious fest on earth!

If I don't see you at SteemFest I will meet you in the sound realms on a collaborative track.

SteemOn~*~

I nominate @immarojas so she can represent the steemph :)
edit : then @surpassinggoogle won't be alone there

Great nomination!

Its going to be a very difficult choice as there are so many deserving Steemians nominated!

Thanks for participating.

SteemOn!

You're most wecome bro

No pressure indeed. Whoever you pick to win, with your discernment of who best represents our community and Steemit, will be totally deserving. I know it can be a tough decision but the right one will be made no matter what.

I would have loved to have made it to Steemfest2 but truly I believe SF3 is meant for me. Both times the SFs have landed on terrible dates for my schooling with learning the German Language and test/exams and what not. So by next year I shall be freed from these educational shackles and be speaking decent German and have a much more flexible availability.

Indeed we shall meet regardless, through Steemit events and in the musical dimension with something heavy handed and bassy like a colossal didgeridoo

Yes Brother!

Infinite Blessings~*~

Your too bro, blessings indeed.

Yes Bess~*~

Just posted my ticket giveaway finalist post! Your currently number one!

SteemOn to SteemFest!

I second that nomination!!!

Steem ON! :)

Yes I love this community so much and have seen SO much generosity. This is just a small token of appreciation for all Steemit has done for so many!

Thanks for the support and comment. I appreciate it!

SteemOn to SteemFest!

Agreed @michele.gent. Everything that brings us together makes us stornger. Awesome comment!

Thank you. I see it as I say it ;) <3

Oh yeah---my kinda girl!!

We are so grateful for you!

I am grateful that there are people out there choosing sustainable service for the greater good of not just humanity but of earth!

Giving someone an opportunity to attend this once-in-a-lifetime event is super primo @quinneaker. There is no doubt that this will be the event of the year -- and one of the first beginnings of Steemit that will live down in history as an intimate and juicy gathering of powerful people form all over the world. Thanks for sharing the love around and making it possible for others. This truly is a priceless gift, and I'm sure you'll pick a doozie to attend!!!!

Bless it be~*~

I love you!

I love you!

So great you are offering to help someone get to Steemfest!!
I had assumed that I couldn't go but this week have a bee in my bonnet and have been wondering if maybe just maybe I can allow a miracle to happen and somehow come up with the means. Stranger things have happened so I'm setting about it. Send me some good juju and envision me there and in prosperity :-), thank you!

Thanks!

I really care about Steemit and Feel that SteemFest is really good for the success of this community. I want to help someone get there that is going to make it better that may not otherwise get to go.

You should defiantly go. It seems like a bit of an allocation of resources but all in all I believe it will be far more profitable than costly.

Sending you the steem juju!

SteemOn To SteemFest~*~

I agree, Steemfest is a great opportunity and has vast potential! I would really love to go and yes the allocation of resources is the issue for me even though I agree that there's a high "profit" margin to be had.

Yes between you and me, you will profit more than it will cost. Though still locating recourses is necessary. I am doing a ticket giveaway you could have entered!

Hope to see you there!

Yes, it's about locating the resources....
I've seen the ticket giveaways but I didn't want to take a win from someone who just needed the ticket to make it happen while I'm not sure that I can gather the rest of the needed resources like plane, lodging that are the bulk of the costs of going.

Anyway thanks for the encouragement and abundant thoughts, and I agree, it's worth its weight in gold on so many levels!

Yes I understand though $222 euro discount on the trip is still pretty nice ;-)>

Hope to see you there. If not I will think of you and give you a shout out in a post while there!

thanks Quinn, it doesn't feel like I'll make it unfortunately but will try to participate on some level and will of course be watching the streamed talks. Yes please give me a shout-out, I'll be so sad to be absent!

Portugal is lovely country, but far awey from me, sorry. I hope next time.

Yea its worth it though.

Still nominating myself again dear @quinneaker

I still stand on the point of adding values gained from meeting many Steemians at Steemfest and bring their ideas of development back home to Nigeria.

Many or few had seen my post and blog since joining in march, now i believe seeing someone physically passes a dozen messages than just online presence.

If many of this steemians meet me, i get to share my thought and my plans with @steem-lagos , an account to foster more Nigerian youth on the Blockchain.

Great to see you are still interested in attending and contributing!

Its going to be a very tough choice as there are a lot of nominations. So many deserving Steemians.

Hahaha, just trying my luck. Steemit is home of Talents and Super Smart people- i would be so honored to win or if somebody else does😉

Yes!

Trying is important and throwing the dice for a lucky roll is also worth it!

I am glad you are happy even if its someone else who wins as its not likely to be you hehe.

Wish you the best though!

Thank you and bless you!

Yes!

Bless~*~

Hi @quinneaker, first of all thank you for this great initiative. I would like to nominate myself and the reason for this is that I want to try and capture the amazingness that is Steemit and SteemFest.

I want to capture the amazing community that Steemit is build upon and eternalise SteemFest into the digital world. I want to do this by using a powerfull tool often used on Steemit: photography

I will make it my goal to capture the soul and ambiance with my camera for the people on Steemit who can not attend

Awesome!

Yes SteemFest is great and a very worthwhile investment!

SteemOn To SteemFest!

I knoooow I'm one day late, but if you can let it slide, here is my entry! I have also made this entry in another Steemfest contest. I don't see it mentioned in the rules, but figured I'd let you know either way!

First of the bat, I would like to say thank you to everyone who is organizing these contests. They might give me a shot to attend Steemfest!

I think you can find all relevant information on my entry in my post: https://steemit.com/steemfest/@martibis/steemfest-here-i-come

TL:DR: I came into steemit, fell in love with the community, created Steemit Worldmap, saw a post hitchhiking to Steemfest, I'm joining up on the hitchhiking adventure and hopefully for Steemfest itself too!

Wow that sounds Awesome!

I have hitchhiked a lot in my day (hopefully done with it now) but it is a powerful learning experience and a VERY sustainable way to travel!

SteemOn to SteemFest!

Does this mean I'm still eligible for the contest, haha?!

Awesome, where did you end up hitchhiking mostly? I went on some amazing hitchhiking trips myself, and probably will go on quite a few more! I think my most remarkable hitchhiking feat has to be going from Miami to San Francisco hitchhiking all the way!

Mostly hitchhiked in the states but have also in central america, south america, scotland and probably other places also. I have been all over the world.

Oh man, I want to go to Central America again now, haha!

Used to live in Costa Rica for 6 months, those were the days, haha!

Well not to clutter up this comment section, but what would be your favorite place in South America if you had to pick one? Really want to make it there soon rather than late!

EDIT: martibis here (keep switching accounts and being on the move, second time I'm posting from the wrong account today, haha!)

Costa Rica is amazing, though its in central america. As to south america I like Ecuador or Columbia the best.

Yeah, that tiny country is doing so many things right, a lot of countries could learn from them in my opinion!

Two more countries to add to my list of "must go to", haha!

Hi @quinneaker, I see you have mentioned me.
This is automatic response so that I may respond to your mention later.

yes just mentioning some of your valuable contributions ;-)>

nice photo.

thanks....

You have a lot of awesome posts, but this is by far one of your best ones man. I needed this one today! Thanks.

Upvoted. I'll be resteeming this now :)

"Why Will SteemFest Be Better Because You Are There?"

I simply believe so.

https://steemit.com/steemit/@fitzgibbon/what-i-believe

Good post! I'm going to follow you to see more post like this and for support us!

Looks like your copy paste stratagey is not working......

Over 400,000 members on Steemit now, I hope they all see your great posts also.

I up voted your last post but now i see you copy pasting this so now u don't get up votes anymore .

@Fitzgibbon really needs this tickets! He spends so much time on Steemit that there's almost no time left to spend with me, his wife. Going to Steemfest together will be the perfect way to join both things!

So you are going already???

My husband will be there. I'm not sure to be honest. As you can see, I joined Steemit since yesterday. I have absolutely no idea what to expect in Lisbon and no idea who will be there.
Yesterday I made my first awkward mistake by asking someone who posted about Steemfest if he will be there in Lisbon. My husband laughed out loud and told me I asked te organisor himself. Someone named Roeland. Oops...

Haha yup thats the organizer. A total noob question for sure. Though you can still go and I would recommend it!

Prepare for more awkward moments if you see mee there! ;) But still.. Why would you recommend it? What's so great about this Steemfest??

Read my posts and you shall see....

I just did and I see you're an artist! Love that! You remind me of my brother in law who sadly isn't with us anymore. Free, enjoying life, the love for creating beautiful things, being different than many others... I like that! I was actually thinking that this whole steemit 'thing' is a little bit boring .. Yes, I know it's a terrible thing to say... but it seems that a lot of people are only replying because they want upvotes. I miss a little bit of humor and personality here and there. I hope I'm wrong! Maybe I need to dive in and let Steemit surprise me ;) I am certainly surpised by your posts and pictures!

I just posted my finalists post for the give away you are number one as of now!

SteemOn to SteemFest!
