in #contest6 years ago (edited)

CLOSED: Contest is now closed. The winners are announced in a separate post. Please stay tuned for next contest.

The TWO projects I’m excited to support are @steembasicincome and Gridcoin.
To show my support I’m organizing a series of contests where you get a chance to win 1 SBI SHARE and 50 GRC.
Simply resteem this post, upvote, comment and follow me to enroll.

Rules

Here are the contest rules to win 1 SBI SHARE:

  • Resteem - 5 points
  • Upvote - 5 points (weighted based on the % of the upvote)
  • Comment - 1 point
  • New Follow - 1 point

If you comment with (doing other actions listed above increase your chances at winning):

$GRC$ S5SuvJBZAPiWKgiKvQR5Z12iNbXkkP1dCf

Where [S5SuvJBZAPiWKgiKvQR5Z12iNbXkkP1dCf] is your Gridcoin wallet address, you have a chance to win 50GRC.

IMPORTANT: make sure to include $GRC$ in your comment. The winners are selected automatically so I need to be able to parse these comments out.

The 2 winners (for 1 SBI Share and for 50 GRC) will be selected independently and you have a chance to win both. Both winners will be selected at random, where participants with more points will have a proportionally higher chance at winning. For participating in the Gridcoin portion of the contest only people with $GRC$ comments will be considered, but their total points will be accounted for.

* The contest will run for about 6 days. The winners will be announced in a separate post and will recieve their prizes shortly after.

** The contest is partially automated and I'm constanly trying to improve it. If you notice any issues with that, have any feedback or have some recomendations for how to make it better, please let me know if the comments.

#gridcoin community

If you would like to sponsor the winner, please send any amount of GRC to this address [S5SuvJBZAPiWKgiKvQR5Z12iNbXkkP1dCf] with a link to this contest in the message. All the collected fund will be forwarded to the winner's address (in addition to the 50 GRC from me) at the end of the contest.
Alternatively, you are welcome to sponsor the winner or any of the participants directly. Thank you for your support! ❤

You have a minor misspelling in the following sentence:

The winners will be announced in a separate post and will recieve their prizes shortly after.
It should be receive instead of recieve.

Steem and Gridcoin are my two favorite cryptos. I've been participating in distributed computing since the stand-alone seti@home client before BOINC was even born. I do wish crypto would gain some more traction outside that community though.

So do comments to earn the 1 point have to be different from the comment to register a wallet address?

Any comment is fine. Just to encourage engagement. My program scans for $GRC$ flag so i can manually payout to the address user provided. And it assigns 1 point for anyone who commented.
Frankly I'd love people to post some interesting thing, like why do they like or support either of the projects. Anything, that would help the community to learn about the projects and engage.
I should probably update the description to highlight that. When i have time..
But yeah, i do not analyze and score the content of comments, and would love to stay away from that.

Thanks for clearing that up.

May I ask how you wrote the program that runs the contest? I'm also a programmer and I'm interested in the idea of a STEEM bot. If you can recommend an API or tutorial of some sort that would be great.

I was actually going to write a post about that but didn't have time.. In short I used a library Ditch.Steem (not the best documentation) to pull data from and to post my contests to Steemit. The rest of the logic I've written in F#. Hopefully I'll find some time to write up about my journey. In the meantime if you have questions, feel free to ask.
