45 Steem prize is growing! Water Balloon Game.
Update: The prize pool is now 45 Steem!! Mitneb curation trail is in the lead with ten balloons left.
So I was going to surprise you guys later this week and give away free balloons.
5 free ballons went out today.
Check these good people out
I do not like to make a big deal about it. But I had a precancerous tumor on my temple.
Doctors advised my family to remove it ASAP.
They did and I am contantly checking myself to his day for dark spots and gray haired moles.
Fck cancer and help them out.
End of update.
After the rocking success of the first round where @dreemsteem barely won. She was one away from bursting her balloon and letting one of the last two win.
It was crazy guys!
Get ready to get wet for round 2
How does this version work?
Just like before, you buy a water balloon that has a vice mechanism on it.
Each one is preloaded with a certain amount of cranks. I roll a varying series of dice and crank the balloons. When they hit a certain number they pop.
We go in the order of those who bought in first goes last.
So if User A buys before User B. User B always gets their cranks done first. So A would win if B pops!
Like before you can buy back in AFTER signup until there is 10 balloons left.
I will make an announcement post when that time comes.
Minimum prize pool
20 Steem base prize
Prize grows with each balloon purchased.
Balloon cost
One Steem/ one SBD per balloon.
Now you can buy as many balloons as you want!
The price will always be locked this round 1 SBD/ 1 Steem is one balloon.
How are winnings split
75% of final weekly pot goes to one winner
5% goes to me for maintenance
And 20% goes to the winning group.
Winning group?
Thats right! Get your Steem squad together and stock pile some balloons!
In the memo claim your group affiliation. I.e steem engine, IFC, steemprivate, cryptoempire, Narwhals, PYPT, Mitneb's curation trail, or just a private group with a cool team name.
Please say in the comments what group you're fighting for. Makes it easier for leaders to see which of their members is participating.
How do I buy a balloon?
For example user A would send a memo to me @swolesome for 5 Steem to get five balloons.
In the Memo he'd say "Getting soaked for @moonbot"
If that user wins @moonbot earns divenends on future pots! Including 20 percent on this one!
And the contest is named after them until they lose the title to another group. So if they keep winning they keep getting prizes!
Winning tickets affiliation gets 20% on all future pots until another group wins.
I will be donating at least 50% of any winnings awarded to me to the Products of Help Initiative (POHI) recently launched by @joshuaetim and @lordjames. Here's a link to their project to help rural kids in Nigeria: https://steemit.com/community/@joshuaetim/distribution-of-steem-powered-notebooks-to-30-school-pupils-the-second-phase-of-pohi-project-a-steem-powered-project-with

Cheers!
My heart overflow with joy to read this. I don't know what to say but a very big thank you. You have the heart of gold and that, is priceless.
I can't be biased. But I hope you guys get a bigger amount of balloons @mitneb and @lordjames and either win or get massive exposure from this!
I hope we win, of course, but getting more exposure for the project will be fantastic!
Cheers!
You are very welcome, @lordjames. I just read the article by @joshuaetim that I linked, and it just touched my heart to see that you guys are taking a worthy idea like products of help, and using SBD to make it happen. I will be glad to be a bigger part of your project if I can. I'll be promoting the article in my curation tomorrow.
Cheers!
Thank you very much @mitneb, this will go a long way. You're an amazon.
You're welcome, @joshuaetim! Because you wrote that first article explaining how you tried your hardest to get something like this off the ground during your Youth Corps days, and you still had a heart and a vision for seeing it to completion, I can easily see that this is not just some whim that you guys are doing without any direction and guidance. I will be praying for your success and that you find favor in the eyes of many people who can help. Keep posting those great updates.
Cheers!
Anyone wanna support a cool challenge ( IFC ) buy a balloon!! Have the chance to win a boat load of Steem and 20% will go in supporting IFC! Any suport is appreciated!
@swolesome, this sounds like such a fun game! I'm in for 10 balloons for Team @mitneb Curation Trail Project. I am going to put the word out on my Discord Server. Hopefully we will become the strong and mighty team to beat!
I have resteemed this for you, and will feature this article in The @mitneb Curation Trail Project Daily Report for the duration of this contest to help you get the word out.
Cheers!
Biggest balloon stockpile so far! You are the team to beat.
