As time passes, the competition for top positions in the Prom Validator campaign intensifies daily.
However, it's still possible to join the contest. Although the exact number of validators to be chosen is unknown, many speculate that either the top 100 or top 1000 participants will be selected. As of June 16, 2024, reaching the top 100 requires just 23000 points, which is quite achievable. Certain tasks offer 400 to 600 points each, and these can be repeated daily.
Let's explore some of these tasks. There are many to choose from, so I'll focus on my favorites. I particularly enjoy Tier 4, the most rewarding tier. The challenges here are varied and exciting, and many are quite straightforward. Tiers 2 and 3 also offer substantial points, while Tier 1 provides an easy way to earn quick points.
The standout challenge in Tier 4, and possibly the best overall, is the "Lights, Camera, Action" task. Participants must create a short video relevant to the Prom Network, choosing their topic, presentation style, and video editor. The video must be posted on Twitter (X), not YouTube. Completing this task earns 600 points, which is generous. A week of making videos could catapult you into the top 100, though maintaining your position will require ongoing effort.
Another popular task is the "Harshest Critic," which involves writing Prom reviews on Medium. While your articles don’t need to be Pulitzer-worthy, they still earn 400 points each and provide a sense of accomplishment as your readership grows.
Creating an infographic for the "Tech Analysis" challenge also offers 400 points. I often find that designing a good infographic takes more time than writing a review, but this varies based on individual skills and preferences.
The "Meme Zone" is perhaps the most enjoyable assignment. Making memes and viewing those created by other participants is a lot of fun, and you earn 150 points for a Tier 2 task.
The most rewarding Tier 2 task is "Xpert," which requires posting a Twitter (X) thread. This is a relatively easy challenge, as you can write about any topic related to Prom, provided your thread has at least three posts.
It's important to stay original and avoid copying others' work. Creativity is enjoyable, and moderators meticulously review each entry to ensure originality.
Finally, remember that all Twitter-related tasks must mention specific tags required by the project.
