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! Participating here involves actually reading the post and making a reply, which is what the platform is asking us to do.
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 Jan. 17, 2018.
- 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, followed by anything they feel will add value to the post. This can be something as simple as a famous quote you copy and paste from the Internet (as long as you provide attribution), something of interest to you that you would like to share, a joke, etc.
- The winner(s) will have guessed all 3 numbers in the correct order and if nobody guesses correctly, then at least 2 of the 3 numbers rolled by 3 6-sided dice rolls must be achieved or the prize rolls over to the following week.(NOTE that there will be no numbers 7, 8, 9 or 0). Example: Dice rolls = 456. Players guessed 152, 256, 416, 555, and 645. Guesses 256 and 416 would split the prize for each having 2 of the 3 numbers in the correct places.
- The prize pool will consist of ALL the SBD earned by this posting PLUS 50 Pocket tokens Plus the total prize pool not won previously.
- In order to win, you MUST have upvoted the original post and written something interesting. Suggested topic: How would you promote The Happy Store?
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: 4,6,3 for 100% SBD Give-Away 0031 (last week) and @doughtaker guessed 2 numbers correctly. The prize amount will be announced in a separate post after pay-out.
To vote for a witness, you need to be logged in with your active key, so have it handy when you are ready to vote. To vote for witnesses not in the top 50, simply insert their name into the text box at the bottom of the witness list and click on the VOTE button.
I sincerely thank you for your input!

Hi! Have you ever thought of investing in other cryptocurrencies? I think I've talked to you before this and you said you didn't! Have you changed your mind since then? haha
Nope! I'm not a gambler, so don't play those games. Steem is unique in that I don't need to invest any money of my own to get my foot in the door. I am comfortable living with my pension and don't need any more money. What I earn here is all put into SP so that I can give out bigger votes to others. I love doling out gifts that don't actually cost me anything to give.
That's very fair! You sound like a very pure person and that's rare to find in this world!
I've gone and 100% upvoted 5 of your comments that pay out soon! Hope you enjoy!!
That's very kind of you. I was impressed with your honesty when you advised me about the way the contest was previously run and how to beat the odds. I think most people would remain silent and take advantage of the situation. I believe that good things will come to good people in one way or another. Be blessed my friend.
Thank you for your words of praise, you're too kind haha
Great idea for a game!

I am not a marketing person but I guess resteeming your article about the Happy Store is one way to market it. So, I've done it and maybe you can create chat conversations in addition to sharing here in Steemit and create more network with suppliers that can offer unique products/services. :)
Thanks for the valid entry and suggestion. Good luck in the contest.

I am reading a book written by author Marc Manson. It's called "the subtle art of not giving a fu*k". Great book. You can read it. :)
Thanks for your entry. May luck be with you!
ENTRY GUESS 516
First off, thank you @happyme for the prize from the last round. That win was a pleasant surprise.
It's worth noting that the massive spike in the prices of STEEM and SBD that we saw not too long ago was led by the South Korean exchanges opening up their trading platforms to STEEM and SBD. So when word of the impending crypto ban in South Korea started to spread a day or two ago, it was no surprise that the prices would plummet. I'm not panicking though; I'm in no rush to cash anything out anytime soon. Just gotta keep Steeming on for the long-term!
Thank-you! It was a surprise to me too. As I went through the list of selected numbers it seemed like there would be no winners this week, but then there you were with your guess. I found it kind of strange that the rolled numbers were so close to last week's rolled numbers, but that is what came from the dice!
I was worried that a higher Steem price would make it more difficult to collect Steem, however it seems that by having a higher price, everyone's vote gets bigger and it actually makes it easier to collect due to the greater value of rewards. That's a nice surprise for me. BUT if the price of SBD were at $1 USD where it is supposed to be, the picture would likely be quite different. THEN a high Steem would cost so many more SBD to buy. As long as SBD stay higher or equal to Steem, we are very lucky to be here earning it now.
Nice game here @happyme
Thanks!
