## Over 30 posts about SPUD4STEEM :)
*There were some well written posts by everyone that participated and you can find all of them here https://steemit.com/created/spud4steem* 

## Now what?
We are now asking all winners to make a post similar to the July winners one below IF they wish to accept the prize, this is being done to protect our kind sponsors 
https://steemit.com/spud4steem/@ayushikumari/i-have-won-the-first-spud4steem

A simple post with a picture of you holding up a piece of paper with your account name & todays date - a message should state " i won XXX prize in #spud4steem"

### The above will need to be done in the next 24 hours  -once all 5 Winners have posted this - sponsors will then be asked to start issuing prizes :)
