Prize Pool #11 - SBD Prize 02/22/18
What is the Prize Pool?
It is a daily sweepstakes that has a few purposes.
- Provide a daily SBD prize to a lucky winner
- Provide funds for 4 jackpot pools paying 10, 25, 50 and 100 SBD
- To have fun!
How do I participate
- Look for the prize pool post daily.
- At the bottom of the page, you will find a question. (very simple for daily pool)
- In a comment to this post, give us your answer.
- Not mandatory, but It’s how we pay for these contests, please upvote and resteem this post.
- Before the post pays out, you will be assigned a number. It will be added as a reply to your post.
- Once the post pays out, we use a random # generator (random.org) to pick the winner.
- Winner will be announced in the next daily post.
How are the jackpot pools handled?
Every daily prize pools earnings are split 5 ways.
Suppose this prize pool post nets 5 SBD in upvotes. Each of the 5 prize pools earns 20% of every prize pool post.
Each prize pool would have 1 SBD added to it if the total SBD payout is 5 SBD.
That means the daily prize pool is paid for completely.
The 10 SBD prize would pay out every 10 days.
The 25 SBD prize pool would pay out every 25 days.
The 50 SBD prize pool would pay out every 50 days.
The 100 SBD prize pool would pay out every 100 days.
Who can enter?
Any member of Steemit can join, but keep in mind only the daily mini will be a sweepstakes. The main SBD prizes will be a contest that requires a little more effort (like making a post). The subjects will be about the homesteading/survival/self-sufficiency/foraging categories. Knowledge in these areas will always be a big plus in the larger prize contests.
Unlike the daily prize sweeps, the large prize contests will require some thought. We are looking for the best of the best. We'll be asking for your ideas on what to do or how to do something specific to the homesteading/survival/self-sufficiency/foraging categories. Knowing little about these categories can be a hindrance to your chances of winning.
Daily accounting
In the post for the daily Mini contests/sweeps, I will include a full accounting of all SBD earned on every post. You can track my numbers just by looking at my Wallet History. I want everything to be open for everyone to see.
What is the daily prize?
1 SBD for the daily MUCH BIGGER for the 4 others.
How is the winner chosen?
I will assign a number to each entry by commenting on your entry. When the post pays out, I will use a random number generator to choose a number. I will take a screen shot of the number and post it for everyone to see. The owner of that number wins the prize.
When do I get my winnings?
When the winner is announced.
Can the daily prize grow?
Yes, it all depends on how much incoming funds there are. Check the accounting to see where we stand
NOTE: Accounting updates are only accurate to the last payout received. If a payout happens after the new daily post has been made, it will reflect on the next day’s accounting.

Answer the following question in the comments below to enter
Do you have a pet? If so what is it?
As a family, we have quite an assortment of pets.
The ones that are personally mine though? I have a large aquarium with fish, and a pet ball python!
peekaboo!
Do you feed the fish to your snake?
Haha no! You know, it occurred to me that the way I worded it, it might seem like the fish and snake are cohabited. Nope, in the living room I have a 110gal tank which currently has mostly huge goldfish in it, and a couple tilapia, (from our aquaponics system that we shut down), and the ball python, Zoe, is in a different tank in another room. She only eats rats. If she ate fish, that would be great! I would totally feed her the goldfish... :D
@squishysquid you are #1
Thanks! :)
Two Rescue doggies, a kittie that adopted us, 65 chickens, and 4 Guinea Fowl. :)
@erinn you are #11
CRAB
@eduards you are #10
Cat and Dog both outside pets!
@beatitudes8 you are #4
I have a "Galoot" maned Bella.
Isn't she beautiful.
We also live with 5 cats, names: Scratch, Lovey, Patch, Curious, and Bigfoot. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the cats right now, besides when it comes to cats I'm not sure who is the master and who is the pet.
@hhayweaver you are #5 - I fully understand about the master/pet thing. We have 3 dogs and 4 cats. Two of the cats are sisters who will soon be 11 y/o, Two of them are brother and sister who are about 8 1/2 y/o. I have already set my foot down, when these pass, there will be NO MORE CATS. One of the two sisters is EXTREMELY vocal. She can and will wake the entire house us with a non-stop meow so she can go outside, walk around to the front door and scream to get back in.
I have a bunny named 'Copita' and my puppy 'Bailey'.
@raserrano you are #2
I have a 18 year old cat who only weighs 3 pounds. Her name is Brigid and she needs special care.
@kimmac you are #7 - I hope Brigid is resting comfortably. Making it to 18 is a testament to how well you have taken care of her.
I don't have a pet, but if I had one I would want a dog, maybe a Labrador...
@motordrive you are #8. I prefer dogs. I don't dislike cats and have had one most of my life, But when my son and DIL moved in with their 2 dogs and 2 cats added to my dog and 2 cats, it just became too much. I cannot keep all the hair out of the house.
I have no pets at this point in time, but I would like to get a dog or cat for a pet! :)
@sweetleaflove you are #9. Both make good pets especially if it is just one. Dogs are usually a little easier to deal with unless you have a spare bathroom and can teach your cat to potty in the human toilet.
I have a parrot... and he's lovely,
his name is harry
@shielashraf you are #3 and don't worry about the background. I am slowly going through my entire house getting ready to downsize. I have so many piles of "undecided stuff" that doesn't have a place designated for it. At the current rate of progress, I might get finished before I turn 70.
