Your suggested initiative is noble and wise. Once you realized how ineffective it would be to get only 2nd or 3rd place, you refocused your thoughts and realized you could do your same work – or even MORE work – by teaming up with another group.

That's the power of networking, and since the Steemit platform and community are essentially based on the concept of networking, I believe your suggestion will prove beneficial for all.

While I don't claim to understand the details of all you are doing or all you are trying to do, I know that you have clear targets and a clear strategy for achieving your targets.

Great Work, and Great Luck!

p.s. I hope your "Revolutionary Idea" soon loads at a full 100%!
