Even though I have been sort of busy lately with some other projects, @projectnewbie has still been going strong and welcoming new verified users! Now with help from @pulpaply on the Curating side its going to be even more active in the future! We are also soon receiving help from another user (which I don't know the name of yet) but I just wanted to say that these 2 Curators have been manually welcoming new users to the site before they heard about @projectnewbie and I want to thank them personally for their welcoming comments and help to new users!

Since I was the only one active most of the first week, I decided to push forward the weekly SD reward so that I don't receive most of it (since that was 70 SD and the posts on this account haven't made as much this week), I thought it would be more fair to the new Curators and possible Finders to get them some time to activate themselves and thus share the rewards more evenly in the 2nd week! 

Nominees to @projectnewbie:

**Day 1 - 8 users**
**Day 2 - 10 users**
**Day 3 & 4 - 14 users**
**Day 5, 6 & 7 - 13 users**

**Week 1 - 45 verified users**

I see many users without any sort of verification, and to not give the fake ones a chance to abuse the project or the votes of the rest of the community - we decided that with our personal accounts we will let the newcomers who haven't verified themselves know about @projectnewbie. If they after verify, they will receive welcoming comment and hopefully in time more attention through the users that follow this account.

Since this project is growing with 3 Curators and around 10 unique Finders so far, we hope the community continues to support the project and gets these posts some visibility so more users who haven't heard of it yet get a chance to.

Thanks for reading! If you find any introduction posts from new and legit users - don't forget to link them to #projectnewbie on steem.chat for a Finders Reward!
