While technically in my little corner of the world there's still a few hours left in August (I'm posting this at about 9pm EST), #HivePUD for September 1st 2021 has already arrived in other parts of the world. If you want a super cool way to check if it's officially in your area according to UTC time (which is how the Hive Buzz badges are determined), be sure to check out the "new" (as of September 2020) Countdown Timer on the hivebuzz.me site, courtesy of the awesomesauce team at @hivebuzz!
AND TO CLARIFY:
- If you want to qualify for the AMAZING Hive Power Up Day badge(s), your power up must happen during the 24 hours of September 1st, 2021 according to UTC time.
and/or
- If you want to qualify for the #HivePUD prize pool, your power up and post must happen (according to criteria listed below) during the hours of September 1st, your local time.
As I said last month, I've changed things up a bit with these monthly posts. You can find the details in this month's announcement post, along with the fact that...
- The payout from this post (aka the beneficiaries) is split equally between the three winners from @victoriabsb's August Hispanic #HPUD initiative, so @el-hallazgo, @fabianar25, and @hjrrodriguez will each get 33%.
I'm also keeping this as brief and to the point as possible, since my usual wall o' text posts have been a bit much to get through for some. I'm trying to find that balance between friendly and informative versus matter-of-fact and not-as-informative. 😄
That being said...
Quick Announcement
Hive Power Up Month is now a thing! It also starts September 1st, so be sure to check out the post by @hivebuzz (inspired by @bulldog-joy's idea) for all the awesomesauce details!
Introducing the Hive Power Up Month - Let's grow every day!
And now for the rest of the basic details...
What are the rules to win prizes for HivePUD?
The requirements are:
- Your reputation must be above 39 and below 70.
- Your total Hive Power (before the 1st) must be more than 100 and less than 8000.
- You must power up at least 10 Hive on September 1st.
- You must write a post about your power up on September 1st with the tag #HivePUD (International) or #HPUD (Hispanic).
To be included in the winners list, you must meet all four requirements above. The order of the list (first place, second place, and so on) will be determined by the biggest PERCENTAGE of Hive powered up, not necessarily the most Hive powered up.
For more information, including the current list of prizes
Please check out the brief announcement post from last week, which includes info about the new drawing being offered as of last month to people who power up & post, but don't end up qualifying for the prize pool because they didn't meet the other requirements.
For more information about Power Up Day in general, check out July's Announcement post (soon to be replaced with a HivePUD FAQ).
