Note the new requirement!
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 Feb. 14, 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.
- Suggested topic:In order to win, you MUST have upvoted the original post, resteemed the latest #happystore post and written something interesting. How would you promote the #happystore ?
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: 3,1,2 for 100% SBD Give-Away 0035 (last week) and @royaleagle guessed 313. The prize amount from #0032 to #0034 will be added to the prize amount for #0035 and a separate post will be made announcing the amount won after #0035 pays out.
I sincerely thank you for your input!
In case you missed it, you can buy chain-link jewellery here using Steem!
ENTRY GUESS 222
Whoa, 4 days in and I'm only the 4th person to respond? I guess I wasn't the only regular participant who had a busy week and forgot to get around to entering.
I wonder if that's the real reason or if the prize money seems comparatively too small since the contest had been won last week? Putting the additional requirement on seemed to have cut down participation as well. Seems people want much for no effort. In a way, I think that could be a good thing. It weeds out those who deserve to win from those who do not.

Can you tell me more about the pocket tokens you give away? I searched google and was not successful. I clicked your original idea link above too and read that but no mention there either.
Whew I also glad I stopped back to the contest and entered last minute and had bandwidth this time.
When the confirmation bot confirms the transfer, there used to be a link to the tokens information, but I think it has now been removed, so here is the introduction post

EDIT: The original confirmation bot still has its link to information and one of the other confirmation bots also has a link to information.
