Since the original idea behind these giveaways was to help redfish and minnows, and with the proliferation of autobots in the system, I believe we need a method of building REAL community. As long as I have enough Steem Power, I will be up-voting those who participate in these weekly contests so that at minimum participants will receive increased rank and a small amount of Steem. If each participant ALSO up-votes the others here, we will form a small community of little fish helping each other out! I challenge you to see if we can get participants to come back and make sure all the participants get an up-vote from you so that nobody feels left out. I honestly believe that the use of vote-buying from bots is harming the platform and I'm trying to create a better way of supporting the little fish. Participating here involves actually reading the post and making a reply, which is what the platform is asking us to do. In an effort to not only support each other, by participating here and not buying bot-votes, I believe you are also supporting the entire platform.
Each week's contest will require entrants to select a number between 111 and 666.
How this contest works
- The contest is intended for lower-ranking members who could use the money (whales and dolphins are encouraged to upvote and increase the prize pool and/or comment rewards. Your support is greatly appreciated!).
- The contest will run for 1 week and close on Sept. 6, 2017.
- Entrants will select a number between 111 and 666 and in the replies to this post they will write, "ENTRY GUESS" followed by their chosen number. This should be the first thing they write and they may follow that with any other comments.
- The first person to guess the number rolled by 3 dice rolls wins (NOTE that there will be no numbers 7, 8 or 9). Subsequent winners will be in order of post or by closest guess. Prizes will be awarded until all available funds are used.
- The prize pool will consist of ALL the SBD earned by this posting.
- The value of each prize will be based on the value of the prize pool and how many entrants are selected.
- In order to win, you MUST have upvoted the post!
Upvoting this posting will increase the prize pool, so be sure to ask your friends and followers to upvote, even if they are not entering!
Dice rolls were: 3, 5, 5 for 100% SBD Give-Away 0012 (last week)
Winner selected from those who followed the instructions:
- @inkbeard (guessed 351) winning 0.150 SBD (off by 4). I rounded the reward up a bit from what I received.
The prize pool is down again, but hopefully with the price of Steem up we can give each other bigger up-votes next round.
Congratulations to the winner!
If you have ideas for future contests, please pass them on to me by posting below.
I sincerely thank you for your input!
