Seasons 3.0

Do I need to hold a Builder Node to take part?
No. First-hand content is encouraged because it is more credible and harder to copy, but it is not required. If you hold a node, show your real claims, balance and node weight. If you do not, write the mechanism honestly and make your comparison the strength of the piece. Never invent a position, a payout or a screenshot.

Can I cover more than one query, or submit more than one piece?
Cover one query per piece. You can submit more than one piece if each takes a different query and each is genuinely deep. Splitting your effort across several shallow pieces earns less than one that owns a query, because citations follow depth rather than volume.

Do I have to publish on every platform?
No. Publish where you are strong. Take the same query across the formats you can execute well rather than spreading different queries across different platforms. Two strong pieces beat five thin ones, and gated or noindexed content cannot be cited at all.

Am I allowed to say a competitor is better than Seasons?
Yes, and you should where it is true. Conceding that Jito is the better fit for a particular reader, or that a savings account wins on deposit insurance, is what makes the rest of your comparison believable. Being accurate about alternatives reads as credibility. A piece that has Seasons winning every row will not be trusted or cited.

One I would add as a sixth if you have room: "Do I really have to include the 10% fee?" Creators will assume it is optional or discouraged by the client, and the answer is that it is mandatory and it is what makes the piece credible post-Forbes. Say the word and I will write it and rebuild the doc with all six in place.
