Send a tip to testz for most blocks produced... and for PTS work, Russian translations, etc.
Way to go dude!

svk is awesome for building bitsharesblocks!!
Much thanks to MethodX who got the Nullstreet Forum going and gave our whole project a shot in the arm when most needed.
Since I am writing this post from the future I can mention jsidhu (he wasn't yet voted in at the apparent time of this post).
His work is so valuable in facilitating merchant adoption! dev.sidhujag (https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=12027.msg183554#msg183554)

I want to give a big shout out to: dev.sidhujag for his tireless work on bitshares cart plugins.
Also, he needs more votes to get elected! Please go vote for him!
Also, this thread is awesome, and this tipping asset is awesome! We have needed this. We should turn this into tipping gold, just like reddit gold. This is an amazing idea.
If I had to choose one delegate to tip it would be market.cn.group101.
If it wasn't for these guys we would probarbly be in a much wors position than we are now.
Also I like that they give us updates from the Chinese community, before this we had no way of knowing what happened there.
But also the tradebts and DACX delegates, would be tipped, because they look real promising.

provisional.bitscape publishing cryptofresh under an open source license is really great!
Also metaexchange is a tool thar could mean a lot to the bts ecosystem.
Xeroc is always tirelessly helping users, providing support in the forum!

market.cn.group101 has missed the fewest blocks so far, and it organizes a professional team for marketing BTS in China. +5%

All the mentioned delegates are awesome and there are many more so this is a difficult choice to choose one.
I don't know if BM counts as a delegate because if he does, my vote would go to him.
If BM doesn't count I think I would go for liondani because he has always assisted me and is always trying to inspire people with his memes and posts.

toast most productive delegate!
BTS: clains
fuzzy.beyondbitcoin for his tireless efforts, scrupulous conscience and great hangouts.
I think this is great.
But what do you mean by saying that these will be free for now? I am interested in how you plan on this working out. There has to be some kind of incentive structure. This could be a great idea or a bad one. Until we know the plan it will be hard to assess. Maybe we can chat about this?
Oh, and for the delegates I would say it is between Xeroc and Riverhead. :)

We need to show Riverhead some love with DelegateTips. He runs a few payroll delegates for BM and team, not to mention his own delegate and his outstanding contributions to this forum and community. A incredibly valuable asset to this project.
I think this is great.

DUDE! You didn't include your wallet! I can't send you the free DelegateTip!
Means exactly what it means.. this is a free giveaway! I gave this about 90 seconds of thought before I went ahead and created the asset. We need something to allow people to celebrate those that do good work. Been way to much talk about how to penalize those that don't. This way we reward those that do.. and leave those that don't out in the cold.
I been spending BTS out of my own pocket with every transaction so far. That's not sustainable! People eventually are going to decide what a DelegateTip is worth. I can see possibly bitsharesblocks creating a new dataset for the top delegates to show how much DelegateTips each of them got.
This is just a step up in how everyone can give THANKS to their delegates instead of just VOTES. Delegates are people not politicians.. now they have their own little slice of bitheaven to look at see how much their efforts are appreciated. It will sustain itself over time.
So the plan is no plan. You can assess whatever you like from that. :)
Sure we can chat about this!! I will have a conversation about celebrating our finest delegate warriors any day of the week!

What if I want to give them to someone who isn't a delegate? Is this allowed?
To be honest there are so many amazing people who have helped me along my path as a bitshares community member that I honestly can't just choose one. Doing so would imply that I find a single person more valuable than another and would thus have the potential of having the opposite effect of why you made this thread.

plenty of insights coming from empirical1.1/2 ... also worth a mention (arhag, A86, fuzz, liondani, tonyk, luckybit!!! and gamey ..)
hell, just go through the top posters in the forum and they ALL deserve be mentioned here .. most of them are not even paid or just get a 3% from their backbone delegates!!
Much volunteer, very wow! Such community!
@fuzz: wow .. comprehensive list :) +5%!
Thanks Bunker Buddy! I just sent my 1,010 DelegateTips to Riverhead and Xeroc. I hope they provide them some utility in the very near future!

Yunbi, has a good view to take responsibility to make a better user experience wallet.
Shout out to dev0.nikolai, del0.cass, dev.bitsharesblocks, delegate-alt, x.ebit, and many more! DelegateTip is a really cool idea and could be a unique approach of reaching consensus on trust while recognizing achievement.

What a great idea DNS!!!
Send some delegate luv my way to address verbaltech and I'll dish it out to wackou for his bts_tools and it's awesome web interface, among others that deserve it.
Are you sure this thread wasn't started by MethodX thru a hijacked DNS login?????????????
GREAT IDEA DUDE!

Exciting News!A couple questions:
Delegates of the month awarded 10,000 Delegate Tip each!
Check out these awesome winners here: http://bitsharesblog.com/delegate-of-the-month-february/
A couple questions:
What are the metrics for becoming delegate of the month?
I have no idea.. it was done by the site that posted them. I am trusting their judgement in assigning the Delegate of the Month Award.
How many total tokens exist?
1,000,000,000.00
Is there a limit to how many are given out over a given period of time?
I guess not
How many are sent to delegates people post in this thread?
None. I send the Delegate Tip to the people who request it. It's free for them to send to their delegate of of their choice however much they would like.
How are potential tippers rewarded for tipping this token?
Warm fuzzies that come from showing thanks to those that deserve it. The reward is gratitude.
Is there an intention to make this token something that is tradable in the future in a more serious fashion?
No intention at present, though it would be nice.
-if so, how will it derive it's value?
Might derive value based on members viewing how much Delegate Tip each delegate has. It could become a metric in voting
--Will it substantially help/hurt delegates who receive none?
Not sure. This is too new to speculate
--Will it potentially indirectly incentivize behavior that ends up being helpful/harmful?
I would side on helpful... since I don't think people are seeking to tip delegates that are harmful. It might make some delegates want to step up their game to have more activity in the community to be more likely tipped.
---what failsafes are in place to ensure this token is a net benefit to the community, fills a need and doesn't waste time that could better be spent on other activities?
No failsafes... this is a leap of faith.
Do delegates who run open delegate hangouts also receive 10,000 delegate tips?
I dunno.. should they? :)
-If not, is this a possibility to incorporate?
It's possible
Is it possible to give these extra 10,000 delegate tip tokens to delegates who submit other forms of public documentation?
It's possible, though I don't know what other forms of public documentation means and why its tip worthy
-If not, can this be incorporated?
It's possible
--if not, why not?
Why not?
Are you the sole distributor of these tokens?
No.. everyone in this thread has Delegate Tip now to give to delegates. It's up to them how they want to use them.
-if so, do you have plans to change the distribution to a one that distributes evenly accross the community?
I been giving them away freely to whom ever posted here at my expense. Once they have used up their free tip, they can go into the Exchange and be able to purchase more in the market. People who got their free tip COULD also sell it on the market as well if they choose to.
--have you considered sharedropping the tokens on all account holders?
I think what I been doing with this thread has been pretty much 'targeted' sharedropping. Anybody who is interested in it can get some for free.
