Welcome to the #GooglyPrize,

awarding googlyness since block 13,337,003

The summer is hot, the markets are low... and everyone seems to get a bit dazed and lazy these days. We had barely any entries this week, but that's not a showstopper...

_{a few qualifying posts were submitted by:
@bucipuci, @davor27, @v-rod, @gabriela24, @ivimipa, @photoquest and @raizapenamcbo}

The Prize Pool:

carried over from last week: 3.231 SBD
and last week's winner @niko3d, donated back his prize of 2.423 SBD!!
^{5.621 SBD have bought ~10.270 SBD in upvotes, 0.033 SBD remain}
and an available delegation-prize of 166.043 SP
plus
100% of all rewards on last week's winner announcement:
3.702 SBD and 5.040 SP and 2.637 STEEM

_{The declining price and growing SBD-Debt-Ratio is seriously draining the SBD-pool, it helps the delegation prize grow, though.}

that makes 3.735 SBD in the cash pool:

40% will be used for next week, 60% will be paid out today!
^{3rd - 10%; 2nd - 20%; 1st - 30%}

173.720 SP will be delegated to our googly winners!

There were only seven entries this week, I felt that made running those through a jury vote on Planet Googly rather unexciting... so I went ahead and handpicked today's three winners myself.

_{today's guest judges were:}
^{nobody, @fraenk did it all on his own...
disclaimer: unfortunately my own #googlyeyes posts don't qualify for the contest :P}

drumroll please...

🥁 HERE ARE THE WINNERS: 🥁

🥉 Today's 3rd winner is: 🥉

@bucipuci with
"Listen to the backyard"

Well, this post is amazing, filled with various googly encounters and a bunch of awesome GIFs... if @bucipuci hadn't already won a prize and the majority share of the delegation last week, I would have certainly ranked this post higher, but I wanted to have some circulation and give the tops ranks to some who haven't been on the pedestal in a while.

🥈 The 2nd winner is: 🥈

@davor27 with
"Mr Cerrojo"

Just a reminder that this contest started as and #eyebombing competition, where the challenge is bringing random man-made objects in a public space to life with some wiggly eyes... @davor27 knows that, he's one of the OGs on the googly block and it was about time he saw a trophy again... just look at this cranky gate-bot... awesome find.

🥇 And Our Grand Winner is: 🥇

@raizapenamcbo with
"Usher"

Yeah, here's another great #eyebombing example... and @raizapenamcbo has framed this guy so well, you can hardly tell what he actually is... but a great #GooglyEyes post doesn't leave that up to guess-work, her post reveals the true identity of this minimalist googly face and I also think it's about time @raizapenamcbo would win something here :D

aaaaand

_{another drumroll, please}

🥁 this week's Googly-Delegation-Winners are: 🥁

@bucipuci, @davor27 & @raizapenamcbo

you'll receive a delegation of 48.662 / 50.024 / 75.034 SP for a week.

_{Ok... @bucipuci already had an active delegation from last week, so his delegation simply get's halved. The remaining SP from this week's delegation pool has been split 60/40 for our 1st and 2nd winners. I hope that's fair... I'm pretty sure it is :D}
