Competition time!

There is currently great discussion underway as to what the good people of whaleshares should be called as a collective. I wanted to think outside of the box on this one as many of the proposed names didn't really roll off the tongue. I wanted a name that would be classless so as to not divide the newly joined members of the platform from long exixting members like on steemit. It can be somewhat demoting to be called a plankton when you have put in 100+ posts and curate regularly and really put thought into your comments. You can join this great competition by @pixel and @anritco from the pixel post here So why not join in and help shape the future of this new network?

For my entry I have submitted Captains!. Now why captains? Well for some of the younger kids on the block they might not know of a book called moby dick. No it is not a book about that music producers member. It is a book about a sea captain, a whaler ( a person whom hunts whales) and his ultimate doom from chasing the white whale. Everyone on whaleshares is chasing the whale in one way or another so why not CAPTAINS? I would also like to propose that we all greet each other with Yarrrrr as opposed to a more formal, Well hello sir or Maam?

Why not get behind this option for our collective name and support my suggestion. Below are some manly pictures of Captian Ahab which should inspire you to vote with that share button. GO ON you know you want to.... Press it.... PRESS IT!! Yaaarrrrr!

PS: @Pixel, I er em, "borrowed" your book picture I hope that is cool :kissing_heart:

Oh one last thing, I with the amazing help of @ijmmai have set up my witness node. This node ads to the numbers currently supporting the whaleshares blockchain. Without witness nodes there would be no whaleshares to post on or make money off. Witnesses count on your votes so if you could spare a vote for me I would really appreciate it. You can vote for my witness here https://whaleshares.io/~witnesses I am in the list but you can also go to the bottom of the page and type in moonunit and click "share". You can read my witness post HERE!

All images unless otherwise sourced and noted as such are my own. Sourced images are clickable to show their source. My own images are typically taken with my HTC ONE.
