For your entries to count in the Challenge you need to receive at least 10 upvotes and at least 5 relevant and proper comments - so encourage all your friends and fellow community members to vote and comment on your posts! You must be in #club5050, #club75 or #club100 to take part in the Challenge. Make sure you also carefully check the rules of each individual contest. --- --- ### Steemit Engagement Challenge Rewards

The Challenge communities must ensure they promptly check and comment on all contest entries. The minimum they should check for are #club status, Steem exclusivity, plagiarism and bot use. To help @steemcurator01 and @steemcurato02 curate the contest posts more effectively we are looking for community Mods to use a clear, simple and easy to read comment format. Communities are free to design their own comment formats but it is ideal if all Mods in a particular community use a common, standard format. --- **At the end of each weekly contest all seven Challenge communities should make a post on their community account announcing the three people who have demonstrated the most engagement in their weekly contest both through the quality of their contest post and the quantity and quality of their comments on other people’s contest posts.** We will leave it to each community to decide how they select their weekly winners, but they should include in their announcement posts a brief summary of their selection process. **All the Season 11 weekly winners, as well as the community announcement posts, will receive extra prize votes from @steemcurator01.** --- --- We hope you are all enjoying taking part in Season 11 of the Steemit Engagement Challenge. Look out for more news about the Challenge on @steemitblog and in the selected communities. Thank you _The Steemit Team_ --- --- ### Minimum Age

The question of the minimum age for people to have Steem accounts has been raised. In the Steemit Terms of Service the minimum age is given as 13 years old. However following the success of the Steem Kids and the CryptoKids communities in introducing younger Steemians to the platform Steemit Inc now considers the age of 13 to be a guideline rather than a hard rule. As long as accounts are actually operated by the young people themselves, and as long they are supervised by parents or other suitable adults, it will be fine for people younger than 13 to participate on the platform. Individual communities will be free to decide what minimum age they are willing to accept amongst their members. --- ---
