Hey Steemians, 

this year there was a new feature for the Steemfest App to safe the usernames of Steemfest3 participants automatically by scanning the QR code on the badgets. 

There was also a challenge by @arcange (@steemitboard) as a motivation not only to scan everyone and really talk with each other. We were able to participate in this contest by collecting points and you only got a point if you are scanning someone and this person is scanning you back after at least 2 minutes. So the intention was that you are really talking to this person for at least 2 minutes.

It was a really great idea and it worked very well. It motivated a lot to meet as many persons as possible and talk to each other.

Some people were really busy to scan them and as you can see on https://steemitboard.com/sf3msc.htm, @roxane scanned over 95 persons for example!

@arcange participated in his own contest too to promote it, connect with others and to help people to collect one more point. @suesa, @lizanomadsoul, @rivalzzz, @louis88, @hashcash and @gandalf were also very busy  and scanned over 50 people. In the beginning of the Steemfest³ it was a very close race between @suesa & @roxane and they are on top until the end of this contest.

I even scanned over 74 people too, but only 39 counted for the contest, because of the 2 minute- and re-scan rule and because many people scanned me on day 1, but these points are not counting. We had to restart with the contest on day 2, because there was no 2 minute rule on day 1 and some people already scanned many Steemians, but some people just arrived on the next day.

**I was already busy with scanning people on the first day and here is my badget scan collection before I deleted and re-installed the Steemfest app on day 2:**

My first scan was Eric (@anomadsoul), but he is not on the list, because I scanned him before myself and so I was Eric on Day 1. xD 

**My next scans were:**

It was really nice to meet so many Steemians from the last years again and so see so many new faces! 

Im looking forward to next year to meet many more Steemians, taking Selfies together, having interesting talks and to record videos together! Unfortunely I haven´t recorded Vlogs together with Steemians, only the two videos, which I have already posted... :(

Next year I want to focus even more on connecting to the many Steemians from all over the world and on taking pictures & recording videos for the community.

**Let´s also stay connected here on Steemit everyone and let´s continue to create the most unique community of the world!**

Greetings from Berlin and hear you!

Jonas - @future24
