# A very busy bee
Over the last three days I feel like I've talked to the world in all the different time zones! This pre-ICO stuff is *not easy* and for the dedicated few, sleep is a blessed luxury given to mere mortals. 

I am completely honored that I was tasked with HHICKB (Head Honcho In Charge of Kicking Butt) for the social media outreach and I am working with an amazing, talented, dedicated group who are just as enthusiastic about VIVA as I am!

Many of you dear Steemians, have taken up the call to be my Elite VIVA Warrior Ninjas Clickers 

While I am not going to shout out everyone on the list right now, I would love to highlight a few of you who are taking exceptional steps to spread the word. 

# VIVA Warrior @lexikon082
***I really wish I was his neighbor!***  I cannot even tell you how fun it is to watch these! So please give him some warm Steemit love because I'm fairly certain he froze his ass off making these two videos.

# VIVA Angel @aunt-deb

In search of something more to expand her wings in cryptocurrency, I've been not-so-subtly coaxing @aunt-deb to read the whitepapers. We're both still learning our way around the tech speak but VIVA gives us hope that we can one day truly **retire.** 

A few months ago retirement was not even in my vocabulary. Now I have hope -- and so does she!

# @siriusgaia
New to Steemit and VIVA @siriusgaia and I have had great conversations in [VIVA Chat](http://chat.vivaco.in) and I hope both communities will give her a very warm welcome.  

In her post **[HAPPY EARTH DAY! VIVAconomy a way for humanity to make Planet Earth a better place to live](https://steemit.com/viva/@siriusgaia/happy-earth-day-vivaconomy-a-way-for-humanity-to-make-planet-earth-a-better-place-to-live)** @siriusgaia knows exactly what she will do when she earns a VIVA Crown.

# Update on open call for new team members
I have *very limited* spots left to be on the Warrior Ninja team. In my previous post **[10 days to VIVA Crown ICO launch and I'm looking for 20 social media addicts](https://steemit.com/viva/@merej99/10-days-to-viva-crown-ico-launch-and-i-m-looking-for-20-social-media-addicts)** I had a ***huge*** response!

Many of you came aboard quickly and got to work immediately. Others have not been so active. So I need to speak plainly now.

### If your name is on the Warrior list it is your spot to keep
***But if you are not participating or showing Proof of Work you will lose that position.***

Some may be moved to the Angel list. Others will be removed completely.  I simply don't have the time or resources to mess around since our ICO is in approximately ***7 DAYS***.

### Monday, April 24 is the cut-off for new Warriors
It simply would not be fair for the Warriors who put in the time and effort since Day 1 of the challenge to be rewarded the same VIVA Crown as someone who sauntered in 3 days before ICO launch, right?

Space is limited and I actually have spots reserved for people who showed interest from my last post but have not updated the mandatory Proof of Work spreadsheet.  I am going to list you guys here.

### <center> @nextgen622 | @kenny-crane | @piedpiper | @virtualgrowth | @acidyo</center>

**Remember - it's your spot to keep for 1 VIVA Crown. Now it's up to you.**

# Stay tuned
More exciting things are coming and I simply cannot wait to highlight a few more Warriors and Angels.
