What is the Deadpost Intitiative?
The Deadpost Initiative is an attempt to give love to some posts that were overlooked during their short 7 day life span, a chance to bring your old posts back to life and maybe make some friends in the process. The goal is not only to share some love with SBD but also by engagement to generate discussion.
Last week
I love those weeks when we have stellar engagement and a variety of different kinds of posts. Not much else to say except that this week was a great one for deadposts. I really enjoyed all of these posts!
Last Week's Winners
@eoj - $3 SBD prize

@steemonkey - $3 SBD prize
This post was insane! I thought I had some bad bathroom stories but this story blows mine out of the (toilet) water. I hope @steemonkey has gotten over his trauma.

@getencored - $3 SBD prize
I learned a bit about the situation for mothers giving birth in Nigeria from this post, @getencored once again shares some culture with us, it's not exactly something happy but at least there seems to be some solution to the problem.
