News
Welcome to Books & Articles Weekly. Sorry that there was no edition last week.
I was travelling and the wifi was terrible. I did zap last week's top posts,
and I included some posts from both weeks in the index. Although I was gone,
the territory was active with great content. I am rapidly becoming an unnecessary appendage.
I hope you all have a good week.
Thanks to everyone who contributed.
There is a zap award for the top 5 posts weekly. It will be broken down as
follows:
- 1000 sats
- 250 sats
- 250 sats
- 250 sats
- 250 sats
I choose the top 5 posts each week based on sats, engagement, and overall
quality. The cut off time is 9:00am EST (1300GMT) Saturday morning. I will
post the top 5 winners shortly around 9:00am every Saturday morning.
I reserve the right to not award any sats for the week. I also reserve the
right to deny sat awards to bare link posts. I recognize that link posts can
be valuable, so I will only only exercise discretion for low quality links
that garner few sats or engagement from stackers.
Happy reading!
As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this
territory better.
