RE: Finding Sanctuary - An Important WOTW message to the Community, Requiring Response

I'm having a hard time concentrating and I'm pretty tired these days @samsmith1971. Maybe it's just the weather but mostly I think I have been needing a break for a while.

WOTW was a beautiful idea. It didn't have the rules like other contests so it left more room to creativity. The problem was the reports and grading process took more effort than the rewards given. I'm not sure if POB is worth anything at the moment.

Adding Dreemport into the picture will free up the grading staff and also introduce a new crowd of writers. Sounds like you can't lose. I just want to add that it would be nice if WOTW were followed by a major curator. I like writing but sometimes I need an extra push.

As regards difficulty writing I hear where you are coming from, my friend. I think it probably has a bit to do with the weather, the market, and people needing to take a breath too 🤗 We all need to write in the breaks as @dreemsteem would say, and most people have been through quite a bit these past 1 - 2 years. The timings of WOTW have also necessarily been less structured and more fluid these past few months, with turnaround times being slightly unpredictable as it was all on Felix's shoulders. If we can gain support for the proposed direction and continuity of WOTW, we will take it forward and if it maintains or gains traction, it will survive.

As regards a major curator, we were not planning to approach any directly but if there are any who would like to sponsor this WOTW institution going forward, to aid its continuity and success, we'd love to hear from them...

As for general Hive curation groups, I am not sure how one draws the attention of the likes of @ocd or @ocdb curation specifically to these contests when the entry posts can be written in any community, other than for contestants to post their entry into appropriate Hive communities that already exist and which already have visibility under OCD/OCDB, to give themselves a chance of being seen and curated. Perhaps there is a way for the WOTW community contest to be curated through the #dreem-wotw tag as we do not have a specific community set up on Hive. @livinguktaiwan , as an OCD mod, do you know whether Hive post tags can be or are ever used by OCD / OCDB to curate or whether Word of the Week would need to be a community in itself, set up on Hive, to draw the attention of curation groups such as OCD/OCDB?

Thank you for your support though @mineopoly, it means a lot! And I do hope to see you back writing in WOTW one day.

Hi there Sam!

OCD doesn't curate on the tag, the curators normally trawl through communities as that's the easiest especially when we know a community has a certain level of quality.

Let me take a look at this when I get home later on to see if there's anything we can do to suy users
