Weeks ago we announced the alliance between the community [Foodies Bee Hive and LeoFinance]( https://peakd.com/hive-120586/@foodiesunite/eng-esp-share-and-earn-in-threads), consisting of the creation of #threads in order to share and earn within Hive. And now, the guys at LeoFinance have created a new initiative [The author of the week]( https://ecency.com/ocd/@weeklytops/hive-author-of-the-week) , which is aimed at recognizing and promoting the excellence of Hive creators.

As happened with the #threads, this idea also seemed super cool to us, so we have accepted LeoFinance's proposal, and for this reason we have joined the The Author of the Week initiative, and starting in April 7, 2023, every Friday we will invite all users to participate in a survey that we will present through a #threads, in which we will include the four best posts published in the last seven days in the Foodies Bee Hive community, which have been chosen by our curation team. You will only choose one, the one you like the most.

It's simple. Firth, you need to be logged in with Hive Keychain on the [LeoFinace platform](https://leofinance.io/threads), so you can view the voting options and also vote. The, below we indicate the four best posts of the last 7 days. You can take a look at each one, and you choose only one, the one you like the most from these four and give it a like [in this #thread](https://leofinance.io/threads/view/foodiesunite/re-leothreads-2extbehjy)

The winner will get a juicy percentage of the reward from the next post (which will be published on Friday, August 11, 2023), thanks to the votes of @blocktrades, @leo.voter and a few more.

Regarding this week's winner, we have an important announcement to make. [In the previous edition, corresponding to week 16](https://peakd.com/hive-120586/@foodiesunite/eng-the-best-foodie-lion-of-the-week-week-16), it was impossible for poll voting to be done properly, this because Hive SQL was down and without it it was impossible to visualize the polls; that's why the voting time was extended, but still it was impossible to vote. [Although today the percentages corresponding to the few votes obtained can be seen in the results post]( https://peakd.com/leofinance/@weeklytops/authors-of-the-week-or-week-30), we consider that it is fairer to reward each of the participants of week 16 with 15% of rewards of this post. We apologize for the inconvenience caused. So the following people are each beneficiaries of 15% of the rewards of this post: @aera8 @valenpba @jenthoughts @elbuhoaular

As we indicated in the first post, in which [we announced our alliance with LeoFinance](https://peakd.com/hive-120586/@foodiesunite/eng-esp-share-and-earn-in-threads), and in when we invited them to share content and interact on that platform, you can win $leo thanks to our curator account @foodiesunite. Also, those three users who have been most active during the week in #threads get one $leo token each and others users get 10 $foodies token each. However, this week due to technical problems it has been impossible for us to visualize and by extension vote on the #threads with the #foodie #foodies tags, so unfortunately we will not deliver the $leo and $foodie tokens. We sorry the inconvenience caused.
