Joe's Signatureless Challenge Archives

[Oulay]

Congratz for the winners and thanks for the feedback! much appreciated.
Regarding the signature, I actually liked the old one better. IMO a simple signature would draw more attention. I feel like if a signature is too complicated some people (like me ) would assume that it's a paid ad and would just ignore it.

Nicely done btw, I see this challenge took much of your time.

A reason for me to start posting.

I'd like to rain some merit on the winners but I'm a bit confused - are there specific posts that I should merit? The application posts? Would like to make it clear that this is for the challenge.

I think their constructive post will be reasonable rather than The application posts.

It's a purpose of Merit that admin created ,right ?

I guess for that purpose it would be pretty neat to implement what @toughit requested

New rule request:  The winner each week has to suggest his top post as a learning experience, (and maybe expound on it if there is interest)

That way it would be better for the merits to be handed out to the "best" posts of the week rather than an application post which kinda seems against the spirit of the merit system (after all it was meant for quality posting and not exactly meriting applications for campaigns)

And it should be linked in the OP or the spreadsheet for quick reference. Yes, I'm lazy.

Edit: for now I just sent some merits to posts in this thread.

I appreciate your initiative! Merited!

I would like to apply but I'm not interested in the cash prize.
Let me know if I can join and keep my current signature (advertises my service on this forum - unsuccessfully though ...   ).

I hope to join this challenge. It is a great challenge to get everyone to post in high quality.
I will do my best to post only quality post.

[DarkStar_]

I gave 8 merits to nullius. (reference) He specifically requested that post, which was why I gave it merit.

Waiting on Blue Tyrant to see if there's a specific post he'd like me to merit. Edit: given, (reference)

2 more hours to get your applications in for Round 2!

Round 2 is already underway and will go until Sunday evening. Remember, a minimum of 7 posts is required. No maximum. You can post anywhere you like, as long as it's an English-speaking board (posts in Local sections will not affect your overall score, as long as minimums in English-speaking boards are met). You can wear whatever signature you want, as long as it is not a paid campaign signature.

Good luck, all! Spreadsheet will be updated tonight, and I'll reply to all of your questions in a bit. I'll also update the top post with new regulations.

[Toughit]

Thanks for round 1!  

Its quite a different thing writing a post KNOWING that people will be looking at and judging the contents then just typing at will. (yes I actually had to think about my posts).

I can't image where nullius gets the time to generate that output with that quality level, averaging more posts in 1 day than I did in a week.

Thanks for being generous with my score, and the merits!

Hi Joe,
Two Merits for the 3rd place seems fair enough, and I'll provide it in the 2nd round if you don't mind.

I tried sending the $10 directly to Blue Tyrant's address, but for some reason my client doesn't like the bc1 addresses. Since I was unable to send the funds directly I have sent a little more than $20 to the escrow address for this challenge. That way Joe can dish out the funds for me, and next weeks sponsor money is already in the escrow address. I apologize for being about a day late here, but I've been very busy lately.

Let me know if that's okay, Joe.

Most clients and exchanges have some intense dislike for native segwit addresses. You'll probably need to use either I think either Electrum, Core or a hardware wallet to send it. That being said BTC.com supports reading transactions with native SegWit addresses so I presume their online wallet should support sending money to bc1 addresses aswell
