<div class=text-justify>Hey guys! We've got some winners! :)

####

First of all I want to thank everyone who joined the contest and shared with us how does a normal day goes by in your hometown, I was able to read all the 150+ entries one by one and I believe I curated all of them according to the level of effort put into each post. I have to say, this is the third year @blocktrades sponsors this contest and @ocd-witness by my hands organizes it and, I keep getting amazed and mesmerized at how different, interesting and exotic a normal day can be for someone who doesn't experience it.</div>

#### There is only one truth about this contest...

####

There are no boring normal days. You might think that your routine is dull and that nobody actually cares about it; for you it might be normal to wake up in the middle of a big city surrounded by noise and people, but for the Steemian living in the countryside surrounded by cows, it's very interesting to see your normal day; perhaps for you going to the supermarket is as pedestrian as it gets, but for that Steemian who only has small corner stores or local shops available, it's as exciting as it gets to read about it... you get the idea, right?

So thank you all for sharing with us your normal day.

As you may have noticed, the prize is not a lot, it's a bit more than $30 USD in Steem, but as you might already know, the point of this contest is to increase engagement and high quality post creation from Steemians, the chance to get to know each other at a deeper level even though we might never meet in person and the chance of getting a post unusually rewarded by receiving votes from Blocktrades and OCD. The prize is symbolic, most of you made more from the post than from the actual prize. 

### I hope you power up the prize! Today is #SPUD - Steem Power Up Day!

#
  
This time there were no judges, I went through all the entries and picked the winners myself.

Let it be known, my criteria for picking the winners wasn't subjective. Nobody can judge whichnormal day is better or more interesting, I don't feel capable nor able to actually say *this normal day deserves to win instead of this other*. The truth is, every normal day deserves to win. I'm not saying this in the way of giving everyone participation trophies, I'm actually all in for meritocracy, but when it comes to something so subjective like our own lives and our own routines, it would be reckless from me to actually pick a winner depending on the actual day. 

But what I can do, is judge who followed the rules of the contest, who included plenty of visual material on their post, who formatted their post in a better way and most importantly, who put the most effort in sharing their normal day with the Steem Blockchain.
  
Before I announce the winners, I want to say that I raised the prize pool to 300 Steem. Since there were 150+ posts, I decided to reward the 20 best posts (not normal days, but posts) with 15 Steem each.
    
Congratulations | to | everyone | !!!
