<p>So it’s been about a minute since I last posted here.</p><p>The truth is, I was kidnapped.</p><p>Lol.</p><p>Not really.</p><p>Actually I and my mom have been at work, from cleaning the house to quarreling about what goes where. </p><p>For me, I’ve always hated where we stayed, the people were always nosy, and the general vibe always felt restrictive, I couldn’t be myself and no matter what I did we’d be the subject of gossip.</p><p><br/></p><p>But anyhow, God did it. The landlord wants to remodel the house so we were given a deadline, my mom was worried, and I honestly understood her, she’s been here for a long time, she’s used to being there, she’s planted, cultivated and reaped a lot from that place.</p><p>Me on the other hand? I was elated. But of course I couldn’t show it yet.</p><p>Then came house hunting. My God Agents deserve to be locked in Hell. The houses were cheap but the agency fee? Sad infuriating!</p><p>Like how is the rent 300k, and your agency fee is 200? Like who does that! And it’s like a disease, most agents are now like that.</p><p>We were at it for weeks, but luckily God had a way out. I spoke with someone I met in church about my predicament and he promised to help, later on he introduced me to someone, Taiwo he’s called.</p><p>At first glance, I was worried, Taiwo looked unkept and angry, I guessed his face was like that due to repeated stress. Either way, my opinions vanished after hearing him talk. He spoke clean English, the type you hear on TV. He wasn’t faking it too. He approached me and made small talk and every single worry I had melted away.</p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><em>I’d continue in a bit, we’re still packing in. Stay tuned for more</em></p>
At the end of the month, we give out prizes in 3 categories: Best Content, Top Engagers and
Most Engaged Content.
Best Content
Top Engagers
Most Engaged Content
Best Content
We give out cash prizes to between 7 and 20 community members with the best insights in the past month.
The winners are picked by an in-house selection process.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know for the Best Content track
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
Top Engagers
For the Top Engagers Track, we award the top 3 people who engage the most with other user's content via
comments.
The winners are picked using the "Top Monthly Engagers" tab on the rankings page.
Most Engaged Content
The Most Engaged Content recognizes users whose content received the most engagement during the month.
We pick the top 3.
The winners are picked using the "Top Monthly Contributors" tab on the rankings page.
Contributor Rankings
The Rankings/Leaderboard shows the Top 20 contributors and engagers on TwoCents a monthly and all-time basis
— as well as the most active colleges (users attending/that attended those colleges)
The all-time contributors ranking is based on the Contributor Score, which is a measure of all the engagement and exposure a contributor's content receives.
The monthly contributors ranking tracks performance of a user's insights for the current month. The monthly and all-time scores are calcuated DIFFERENTLY.
This page also shows the top engagers on an all-time & monthly basis.
